Whenever I'm close, things reveal that they're broken - and sometimes that was not my intention.
Expect posts about software testing, public speaking, parenting, sports (running & pole) and fashion.

I love that my kids have a lot of different hobbies and I love that we're able to support them in doing so many.
That being said: waiting for an hour in a riding hall while my daughter does acrobatics on a horse while it's -2°C is not my idea of fun 🥶

Using LinkedIn DMs to explain to someone I met at a conference why "I see people as humans, not as their gender (or other attributes)" is not a great take.
While also throwing in a bit of "fashion is used to maintain power structures".
Am I doing this "business networking" right? 😅

🕯️ Today, we remember and mourn the ones we have lost.
We will continue to fight for trans rights and equality while doing what we can to protect our community by holding people in power to account.
To all of our siblings who are struggling, we see you, we hear you and you are loved.

For Transgender Day of Remembrance this year, please remember why we grieve. Our sadness is one of the most important biological adaptations that humans have evolved.
Because it drives us to seek each other out.
We mourn so we can come together and become strong again in community.

Today is #TransDayOfRemembrance. Trans people and their human rights are under attack around the globe. The Vagina Museum stands defiant against these attacks. We are a proudly trans inclusive space, even as discourse grows ever more toxic.

🕯 Today we pause to remember the trans people whose lives were taken by violence this year. Those lost to hatred, and those lost to the unbearable weight of living in a world that too often refuses to see their worth.
We hold every name and every story in our hearts.

1. DNS lookups for both URLs to see if they resolve to the same IP
2. If either DNS lookup fails, do a case-insensitive textual comparison of the URLs
3. If that fails, check if they're both null
4. If that fails, then they're not equal.

If you want a real laugh, look at how Java checks urls for equality.

The witch made him hot chocolate.
"They say I'm strong," he said. "And I am."
He took a sip.
"They say I can overcome any hardship."
"Mm," said the witch.
"And I can. I do."
The witch said nothing.
"But I shouldn't have to!"
"No."
The witch held the hero as he wept.
"No, you shouldn't."

A coworker who knows about my fancy outfits keeps showing me dresses and skirts she comes across and asks for my opinion.
Today she surprised me by giving me two outfits we had talked about because "she needed me to have them". (1/2)

Hooray, for the first time a conference didn't reject my talk "gender diversity belongs to accessibility" right away.
They do however have a submission process with two rounds so I may still be rejected.
For now I'll take the win 🥳

The message is as simple as it is clear:

This shape is called an "extended butterfly". Today I called it an "overextended butterfly" - that heel should have been on the other side of the pole for stability.
It worked out surprisingly well despite this mistake and I didn't even fall 😅
