Paint, snipping tool, and Power Point are my graphics designer tools.

How does one start with Figma? Do I just watch youtube tutorials?

Seen this tip yesterday on Reddit, and it was immediately useful when #strava today switched to miles for no reason.

You can use Fibonacci numbers as miles to kilometers conversion: 1 2 3 5 8 13 21 34

3 miles ~= 5 km

I just realized that I have absolutely no idea what my Windows password is. I guess the no-password movement was successful!

Was challenged to make youtube video. Not sure why I am so nervous about it, I am not stranger to speaking publicly :D

So here is little tip on debugging #dotnet and other executables in #visualstudio :)

3am and I can’t sleep. Watching Steven Toub’s talk on #dotnet performance youtu.be/snnULnTWcNM?...

And now I’d rather sit at computer and try some of these things out. I should have chosen something that is more boring.

I’ve just crossed 1000km for running on Strava.
September 30, 2025 at 7:58 AM
After the ultra hot half-marathon race last week I tried in a more reasonable weather and set a new PB. It even surprised me, I was hoping for 1:45, but was able to speed up and sustain the faster pace in the second half of the run.

Did halfmarathon in Usti yesterday. My first ever half-marathon race. And the weather was brutally hot. People were quitting left and right, some of the pacers gave up.

Finished in 2:04, deeply under my target time. But I am still happy with the time, I gave it all.
