The cycle repeats? I’ve enjoyed the innovation of the progressive web from jQuery to Angular, but React burnt me out. I learned the hard way that investing too much time and innovation into a JavaScript framework is a net loss. And it was a

From my experience, living in the US was dystopian compared to what I have experienced in Oslo. I have only been here for 6 years, so given a long enough timeframe that could change. I think it comes down to mindset. For example You have wh

That is a great question and I would be happy to share. Varnish Software had a job posting in Norway and I asked them if they would consider a US candidate. At that time I was living in the US and was looking for opportunities to immigrate

I immigrated from the US to Norway. You can’t really compare dollar to krone the difference of a US salary to a Norwegian salary. I’m not sure how to explain it for those who haven’t lived in the nordics, but you don't need a high payi

“inline CSS wizardry by my friend Kyle” Thank you for the kind words my friend. I enjoyed contributing to TinyKVM during my time at Varnish Software. It is nice to see that you are able to present and share it with the community.

My partner and I love the "single-stair multifamily" building "Leilighet" that we live in Oslo, Norway. It was built in the 1920s and has 3 levels with each level having 3 units. We enjoy the people that we live near and

As a student of Bokmål (for immigration and integration), Nynorsk is an ongoing mystery to me. I think that I'm still at the A level (A1/A2). My auditory processing disorder adds an extra variable that I'm still learning how

I really don’t understand this approach to employment in the US. A employer should be able to talk with an employee about issues or notify them with with reasonable time that their position is changing. I know at least that I prefer to work

In Oslo, Norway we are currently paying about $300/mo for full time child care (it is more like kindergarten). That’s the maximum out-of-pocket that parents have to pay for a single child. Our taxes contribute to the kindergarten syste

My parent’s waited 12+ months for a replacement bumper for their Tesla. They eventually decided to just trade it in for a new SUV. My dad is the kind of man who takes excellent care of things, and keeps vehicles in perfect condition. If Tes

Aside from some scaling issues, it still is a great solution for having real-time insight into the performance of Varnish and the cache. We even went as far as writing a Golang version of the VCS server to better handle some of the scaling

I want to purchase a license (take my money!) to self host Posthog. The core is OSS and also has Enterprise features (that is also open source). However, they insist I should move to their cloud solution.

I hear what you are saying. IMO, the mask and covid measures in Portland feels to me to be more political based. I really don’t understand the logic in America when it comes to the current thinking about covid measures. You could say I have

Low slides are the best and kind of fun… when wearing a race suit on a race track. It was most often the case that my racing motorcycle and my protective gear was still in one piece after a low slide. Race tracks typically have a mixture o

The logic behind my thinking is more based on what we do as humans to be safe. For example: When it is cold, we wear protective gear to keep us warm. When the UV index is high, we wear protective gear to protect our skin. When it is dark, w

Now that I think about it, the same can be said about outerwear here in Norway, but I just realised that I’m used to seeing the reflective band or vest standout.

Recently (3 months ago), I was visiting family in Portland, OR and experienced an odd event. For context, I currently live in Oslo, Norway. As I was using a crosswalk, a Prius driver felt compelled to yell slurs at me. I can only guess that
