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...

Like my colleagues, I've got one of these little toys too. A toy... well, there are endless things you can do with it. First up — cloning access cards and tokens. Last year I needed a copy of a token and the copy just wouldn't work — nothing happened when I held it up to the reader...
A while back my friend shared a post about Marp on Twitter (now X). You specify the content using Markdown and the presentation builds itself. I saved the post and eventually got around to trying it. Visual Studio Code has a Marp plugin so...
To use the latest Dexcom sensors (G7) with the Tandem X2:slim insulin pump, you need to do an update. I'll skip all the individual steps since they're well described on the website of the local distributor. Once you've got everything ready, it's time for the update.
You prepare the cab...
What were the highlights of this year?
EDR: Falcon — best of the best!
Technology: Eye-tracking autofocus on the Nikon Z8 mirrorless camera.
Headphones: WH-1000XM — breathtaking sound, ANC. What more could you want.
Course: Foster Care Applicant Preparation. I think...
