The German legislation focuses on private growing, there will not be any shops where you can just go and buy weed. There are no taxes to earn (yet).

No, I blacklisted the whole industry and will not take any job there.

I started in defense, but I would now after 15+ years not do any work in defense or gambling or trading. It was a good experience for me though, taught me a lot, but I wouldn't do it again now.

I got to say, this is only true if interaction is actually better in person. For me I'm not sure that is the case. I also do not participate in all social calls that my company set up, but I am always available for 1v1 video calls with my colleagues.

I was at the office 3 times last year and that is plenty enough for me and my team.

I'd suggest spending money on an adjustable standing desk and get regilar (as in off the shelf, not crappy) office chair not something super fancy. Being able to switch from sitting to standing a lot is more beneficial than a good chair.

But it is a good example of inconvenience. One day they decided well, we're closing shop. And that made it pretty clear for users that they didn't own the music.

Oh, I forgot one thing:

sorry, but it wasn't you who did it.

This sounds like you want to prove something. That you can do it better than the maintainers of the library. That you can solve hard problems on your own instead of relying on other people.

That's all great and sometimes it's good to do hard things on your own and make sure you could do it just in case. But it's not always necessary to do everything yourself and learn every lesson yourself. It's a valid way to build on knowledge and work of others to achieve your goals.

This assumes that I could implement something as well as the maintainers of the library I use. I agree that something trivially should be implemented on your own, but if there is special knowledge required (the obvious example is cryptography, but also something like HTTP requests) I rather rely on a widely used library than my own code that I now have to maintain and check for security issues instead of just updating the dependency version whenever a CVE is published.

Also if there is. A client by an API provider for my language, why shouldn't I use it instead of rolling my own?

Another example is a framework like React or Angular or Svelte, which brings along a whole lot of dependencies. Sure, I could not use something like that and write everything from scratch.

But where is the value of all that code to customers? If I want to roll my own HTTP server up from the sockets, I can do that as a play project. But not using libraries for a real world project to solve business needs is a bit of an odd take.

Anyways, that's enough of a rant. Have fun in the replies. 😎

I'm using home assistant with thermostats and humidity/temperature sensors mostly to get information how the house heats and how the rooms are affected by humidity and temperature changes.

I also automated two dehumidifiers with those sensors and zigbee plugs to not run 24/7 but in defined windows when the noise isn't bothering anyone and if the humidity triggers certain thresholds. The automation also has hysteresis sesstongs so the devices do not constantly turn on and off.

In general I don't automate to a point where I can just flick a switch or turn on something manually. But it is nice to be able to control and see everything.

Can't find the info in the repository. Can I share a collection or specific links via RSS? I built my own application to archive URLs and grab the text content, and I also build a RSS feed from that. Can Linkwarden do something similar?

I listened to the Tim Ferris Show a lot. These days I only listen to guests interesting to me.

I'm using Notion for everything now. I heavily rely on reminders scattered everywhere because Todo lists don't work for me.
