Friction
Uff, my handwriting is not what it used to be. The following blog post is written by hand.
About task management
Task management is an underestimated aspect of project and self-management. Self-management not in psychological sense, but about managing your personal resources.
I have to admin that this topic sounds boring, but I gave my best to write an engaging and insightful post.
Read the Magnifica Humanitas
or at least a few pages. What is the “Magnifica Humanitas” you rightfully ask. The Magnifica Humanitas is a document about safeguarding the human person in the time of artifical intelligence published by the Holy See. And it might be the very reason I re-join the catholic church.
restic compression and deduplication
I use restic to backup data on servers. It is a great tool and manages the entire lifecycle of a backup. In restic a backup job produces a snapshot. Files in snapshots are deduplicated and compressed.Back rotation can be setup on a daily, weekly, monthly or yearly basis. If restic compresses and dedups files, does it makes sense to zip backup files beforehand?
Intersection of web search
Something peculiar happened, the biggest search monopolist Google decided to show ai summaries instead of search results. For years the search engine acted as a platform for advertisers and seekers. Now, the act is over and the emperor stands without clothes.
Hugo full-text RSS
I recently wrote that I started using RSS again. To be sure that the feed of this site works, I subscribed to my own blog posts. When I open the post in the RSS reader it only shows the introduction of the post.
Doughnut Economics
I would like to share some thoughts on the future of economics, business and enterprises. A few days ago I attended the Doughnut Economic Circus. It was fantastic and I enjoyed every moment of it. There is still a lot to metabolize and this post is my first try.
The Beauty of pacman -Syu
I use arch btw and Arch is the best are obnoxious ways to tell somebody that you are using the Arch Linux distribution on your computer. Arch users also claim that their distro is superior to other distros. Sure, they’re just silly memes - but, they’re the reason I even looked into Arch in the first place.
The Dispossessed
The Dispossessed is a science fiction book by Ursula K. Le Guin. But it is not science fiction as you’d expect. It is about two worlds Anarres and Urras with opposing economic and ideological structures. Science fiction provides the conditions that make this story possible.
Strudel
With Strudel you can turn code in to music. And no, this is not about generating music with ai. It takes a real djane such as DJ_Dave to make music from code. The Strudel community is vivid. Their music is shared on Bandcamp and other platforms.
