Teapot and cup on table I was a bit distracted last Friday, so it is another double week today. I truly enjoy the Bookoverflow podcast. Some of the books I know already, and find the different perspectives interesting. Some of the other books I do plan to read now. For something entirely different: The Orkneyinga Saga and Fed podcasts. Leadership No More: It’s The People - at least not all the time. ...

Last week, my automation for these failed, so you have to endure twice as many links today. I also said that I wouldn’t post depressing news any more. I am sorry, but the climate crisis and pollution made me do it, so it is your fault really. ...
Good news for the environment. I enjoyed reading the PySkyWiFi hack! This happens when engineers are bored. Engineering Just Use Postgres for Everything - I have opinions … PySkyWiFi: completely free, unbelievably stupid wi-fi on long-haul flights - how many programmers have thought about hacking the Wi-Fi in planes? All of them! Microservices [YouTube] - funny, also use better names for your stuff! PagerDuty Incident Response - looking at this at the moment.. ...
Vintage Atari ad: One word for these prices: Rip-off This week I have been enjoying the audio archive of The Famous Computer Cafe, a radio show from the eighties with many famous guests of the home computer area. There are definitely some parallels to the present. The X Windows history is also great. Today’s post does contain plenty of throwbacks.

A lot of fun stuff in the random section. I did enjoy the podcast about getting or not getting into Berghain, and the one about the Stereophonic play. The ongoing research into the XZ backdoor also continues to be interesting. Leadership Seven Conversation Hacks - some of this is harder, when working remote. The route to better culture? Better managers - mostly quoting research. ...
