Week 14, 2024 - Writing, debugging and history

We saw the temperature climbing consistently above 20ºC this week, allowing us to fit in a nice small hike. Our noisy steps startled a deer couple, causing them to run away right before us. It’s great to be out in nature. That said, I took the above photo right

Week 13, 2024 - On Newsletters and the next Tech Radar

Happy Easter if you celebrate it — otherwise, enjoy a nice spring weekend. This issue got a bit long, I almost moved my thoughts about the new Tech Radar to a separate article to keep the size down. Eventually, I decided to keep it here: there’s a structure emerging in

Week 12, 2024 - Homelabbing, Leadership and AI Music

🦸 What I learned this week Oh boy, did I learn! I haven’t spent this much time in the terminal for ages. I received the replacement SSD on the weekend for my 2011 Mac Mini and spent most of the week playing with it and learning about virtualization, networking, and

Week 11, 2024 - Mobile development and AI in the terminal

This newsletter is going out a bit early, today we celebrate the 1848 Revolution in Hungary, and I’m planning to spend the day with family. I managed to attend the Craft Conf mobile development meetup this week. It appears that the industry is moving in two opposing directions simultaneously:

Week 10, 2024 - Flowers and AI

Spring is here! No doubt now. The other day I was walking around with a light jacket only, and more and more often I can have breakfast on the balcony. And the tulips are starting to show their heads in our garden! Back when my daughters were younger, for a

Week 09, 2024 - Rock and Roll

The blog is 1 month old now, and just like this week, February seemed to go by pretty fast. I had a good talk with a friend about mindfulness, and he shared a quote that he found funny in its absurdity (and I agreed with him): How to walk a

Week 08, 2024 - 3D prints and reflections

This week flew by filled with meaningful discussions with wonderful people. I’m grateful for the chance to spend time with friends — over lunches, in cafés, through a video meeting, or a simple old-fashioned phone call. I’ve found that audio-only calls, especially when taken during a long walk, enable

Week 07, 2024 - One-on-Ones and free art

Tech improvements on the blog, lessons from two articles, and free sources of quality illustrations.

Week 06, 2024 - Takeoff

While the site has only one new post, this was still a surprisingly busy week! I got to spend a bit more time with my family, and the weather allowed me to take longer walks in the morning. I'm gradually preparing to be in better shape for bicycle

Week 05, 2024 - First!

I'm starting a weekly log to establish a regular rhythm of updates, make myself accountable for my goals, and share things that I otherwise wouldn't have the opportunity to. Spring is slowly coming to Budapest, it only goes below 0ºC at night now. The sun is
