On my way to Frankfurt for our end-of-year Haptiq meetup. Two days of planing and strategizing for the next year (and hanging out). I haven’t seen Claudio IRL since June.

First hour of home schooling is not going great. SchoolFox is apparently not able to provide a stable video call: kids randomly drop out, jerky video, choppy audio. You would think that this should not be an issue, given that this is a central part of their service. 🤦♂️
Something that’s pretty common here in Essen: My daughter has remote schooling tomorrow because of bomb disposal.
Yesterday they found yet another WWII UXO (British, 250 kg) around 400m from her school. My coworking space is also right inside, at the edge of the security area and will be closed while the KBD (“Kampfmittelbeseitigungsdienst”) is working on the bomb. Usually this is done right away, but they are still in the process of evacuating a nearby hospital.
I’ll be sending out the next newsletter regarding my Project 366 Zines over the weekend. Part II and III are almost ready and there’s also another chance to get your hands on Part I. Subscribe, if that sounds interesting to you!
Woke up, went to get something to drink from the kitchen, saw the oven clock: 6:20 am. Thought: I might as well not go back to bed. Sat down at the computer. After 20 minutes, I realized it’s 5:40 am. We have yet to change the oven clock to winter time…
In other news: I had a very productive morning!
Still on the train, which of course is delayed. However this gave me enough time to finish editing my #btconf images & I even managed to upload them to the website.
The full gallery is available here.
Thanks to all of the speakers for the inspiration!
Added a little theme switcher to the website:
At the doctor’s for a routine check-up and wondering why there is no “AI” for optimizing waiting times. Surely someone has to have thought about this?
New website, who dis? 👀 (Still very much a work in progress, though.)
My photo blog header states: “A blog where Florian tries to post one photo per day.” When there’s less than 15 consecutive days of posting, it is followed by “He fails most days.” I always loved that, because it meant low pressure. But now that I have almost completed my second year of daily posting, I guess that slogan no longer holds true. So after this current 366 project is done, I need to find something new. Maybe “He does not fail most days”? 🙂
