I think they missed a comma here to make me feel addressed.
No seriously, go vote today!
(no German no worries: a comma would change the meaning of this sentence from "give love and go vote" to "Jan, make love and go vote" as Schenk is the imperative of to give as well as my last name, obviously.)

I'm currently tinkering with IR blasters to help my home automation control devices. Blindly ordered a small AliExpress device only to find out it has a Beken chip and not an ESP8266, and then realised it can be flashed with a Tasmota-like firmware. OpenBK. YAY!

Hope y'all have a safe (and snuggly) place today to spend the transition to 2025. May 2025 be a better year than 2024. See you there!

It may often be a fine line between those two, but you'll not get in trouble for showing this behaviour of not doing your due diligence once or twice. It's a problem only once it becomes a pattern.
Asking questions is an amazing thing. It's a way to learn & fill in your knowledge gaps. However, to build trust with teammates, do your due diligence before reaching out to ask a question. You don't want ppl to feel they're constantly answering questions you could have easily answered on your own.

“Breaking in” to tech is hard, but staying and growing in tech is harder. We never really talk about it, so I wrote a long blog post sharing why i think it’s hard and how to navigate tech.

Been to a silversmithing workshop with my partner today. OMG that was fun! I love to get lost in detail and enjoy perfectionism in crafting. I'm so proud of how this feather ring now looks. 😍
