After an article about the background to the Huawei pressure campaign from the winter of 2018 was published, I decided to share it via a Story on my Instagram. Shortly after I got a black mark. The Story was removed for violating the terms — specifically cybersecurit...
It's been over 12 years since I switched from a personal to a corporate plan — back then I didn't need data, and unlimited SMS and calls were enough. Over time data became a necessity, but corporate plans have absurd pricing. 300 CZK for 1.5 GB of data, while abroad you can get un...
An account verified to the high assurance level gives access to all electronic public administration services, including those requiring the strongest security (e.g., opening and managing an asset account for government bonds). With a high assurance level you can also obtain a...
New job, new Windows. Windows 11. It's different. A sort of mix between macOS and Windows. Except it doesn't quite work the way you're used to from macOS. From a user experience standpoint it's fairly pleasant. Things don't pop up at you constantly, it doesn't interrupt you. It's...
Sometime last year I got to taste food from a ceramic grill — the famous egg, Green Egg. The flavour was completely different from a gas grill. The explanation is simple: wood and fire. The Egg is unfortunately hellishly expensive — blink and thousands are gone — so the idea of a...
Another four years gone and time to renew certifications… but since there's no budget, I'm faced with the choice of renewing out of pocket or just letting them lapse. Each certification costs $479. That's not nothing. What would I actually get out of it? I'd have active certification...
Coordination — the biggest stumbling block. Especially when it comes to TFP. It's one thing when a model messages a few minutes before the shoot to say she can't make it. Without explanation. But when a studio or other space is needed, it hurts that much more.
Sometime earlier this year the internet picked up Twilio's announcement about discontinuing the Authy desktop app. That move honestly surprised me quite a bit. I wasn't sure why they were doing it, or what would happen to the mobile app. I took a deep breath and s...
Due to the impact of changes in Czech labour law, my agreement with Czechitas was terminated. I'm not surprised — the bureaucracy around it is simply insane. Instead, I'll be doing the bureaucracy myself, though hopefully not quite as brutal. I'll still have to prepar...
This year's event looked incredible on paper. I'd say half the country wanted to see the Me-262 Schwalbe. But the weather had other ideas. A front was pushing across Europe and it was either raining here or in Germany. The biggest draws, unfortunately, couldn't make t...
