One of the most time saving things I can do on the web is to read the posts @jack and see how he moves between different note taking systems, blogging systems, etc … that way I don’t have to do it 😜

I want to learn a new programming language, a framework/library and write a few apps … but the last few years I’ve been so tired in the evenings that I barely move from the sofa 😣
It’s “Angry old man, shouting at clouds”-time: Just got an email with 3300 characters of content in the form of a 32900 character HTML-mail … 😡 (and the code was horrible)
I’ve been out to another “teaching teachers to program” teaching day, this time in Vilhelmina. I get more and more depressed (and angry) each time I meet teachers and start discussing their work situation. Note: this isn’t something specific for Vilhelmina, I hear the same thing for every teacher I meet and from all over Sweden.
They all have a horrible situation where they are basically expected to work full time and then learn new required stuff on their spare time. So they can get some time off but no pay … for something they are required and have to learn. It’s sooooo shortsighted by the people in charge of education in different regions, they intentionally force people to work until they “run into the wall” and then those in charge complain that “it’s so difficult to find teachers with the proper license” …
I’m quite surprised that there are people who want to work as teachers.
I can’t really understand that people gets so upset about the touch bar and at the same time think that dark mode is a good idea
I’ve been listening to a couple of Swedish podcasts… and the ads are so bad. They should listen to how @leo does it and learn from him.
Hey, look !!! The sun is back in town … for the second day in a row
Listening to a colleague defending his Ph.D. thesis … hopefully he has the time to enjoy his new title tomorrow
The irony !! It felt strange today when I got out of bed, for the first time in years my muscles in my lower back didn’t hurt. The whole day have felt really strange. Then on todays training session I was thrown and landed a bit strangely … and now the problem is back. Well, it was 15 very nice hours.
I first noticed WhenWorks last spring (I think) and thought it was a neat idea, but I didn’t really had any use for it since I had no meetings to schedule … and there is a subscription fee.
Fast forward to 2019 and things have changed. I now need to schedule meetings continuously. My modified opinion is now: neat idea and worth the subscription fee!
I’m slowly understanding why some people place so much importance on ending up on Flickr Explore. First time for me (I think, I never check) and that picture currently have 1800+ views instead of the more normal 2 or 3. Interesting phenomena.
The best movies for kids? “Emil i Lönneberga” - the original versions from the 1970s … so good.
Today’s silly thing, movie posters for a movie called “Glass” complete with pictures of broken glass. Why silly? Well, that they don’t translate the title - especially when “glass” means “ice cream” in Swedish. All they needed to was to remove 1 s (swed “glas” = eng. “glass”). So now we have the movie “ice cream” instead 🤦🏻♂️
My view through the train window
Traveling home by night train, was expecting to be at work (very close to the train station) before 6:30. Right now I’m wondering if I will make to lunch, we are about 4.5 h after schedule right now.
Early morning walk in Stockholm
One sign of how little cash is used nowadays is that I don’t really recognize Swedish bills and coins 🤷🏻♂️
🤦🏻♂️ = min åsikt om de som går ut i en öppen kort läderjacka, korta tajta byxor som slutar 1 dm från skorna, ingen mössa, inga handskar när det är -25 ute … och klagar på att det är så kallt
I really liked the concept of definition and implementation files, and really disliked how Java used interfaces.
A sustainable world
Wow !!
William Barr says he can “conceive of situations” where journalists should be prosecuted
Every time I decide to stop searching for a Lightroom replacement and really learn how to take advantage of the program, I find something that gets me to think “I can’t get rid of Lightroom fast enough”
Hmmm
Anyone who has ever been to New York City remembers their first impression, amazement, and awe
I’ve been there once, due to a late flight, and while I do remember the short visit, I can’t say that I felt “amazement and awe”. Pretty much like any other town.
Time to get rid of the Christmas stuff
One thing is for sure, if you want to view beautiful photos. Flickr is the place to visit.
