I was tinkering around with making more use of my fit file viewer. It might have escalated. A static #Java page generator for sharing activities online incl. support for descriptions and photos with geotagging. It's not about flexing with your best performance but sharing memories and inspiration 💜

Went away from keyboard the past two weeks to collect some data for this. Ever wanted to render your #Garmin, #Suunto, <whatever creates .fit files> track? It's also possible to not have this neon effect, but I like it too much ;) github.com/meistermeier...

This was so great. Besides other things, I finally managed to do my first hike to a summit and met with the local wildlife closer than I would have ever expected.

First hike in 🇦🇹 done again

Green mountains with clouds in between and above. A little bit of sunshine hits the mountain in the front.

If you look closely you can hear the sound of disk tapes and floppy drives, unless you just used the modules.

Yes, you are correct InelliJ. I am working for a Swedish company that writes Swedish #Java.

Java switch statement body. The IDE suggests that I should download the Swedish language pack.

JUG Ostfalen numbers for the past years. In reality there were more attendees, but those are the official registration numbers. I am really happy about our local #Java community.

Did you know that there are also catppuccin (github.com/catppuccin/c...) themes for #IntelliJ (github.com/catppuccin/j...)? Thank me later. 😍

Ok. This is definitely a small form factor.

errm..not the textual archive, but all those very good (by my sense of humour) memes. Like the (german) #Spring Boot :D

Tomorrow starts #nodes2024, the 24h #neo4j dev conference. Yes, you can get informations about all (ok, most) #Java tools/libs, we offer. And look who will present (hint: that's me). neo4j.com/nodes2024/ag...

Wrote about how to enable Cypher syntax highlight / language server (by using github.com/neo4j/cypher...) in a current #neovim installation. "From 0 conf to Cypher editor"-style. meistermeier.com/2024/11/01/c...

Cypher syntax highlight in neovim.
Also shows an error entry for wrong statements.

Hello wonderful people. There seems to be another disruption in a social network. Let’s see how this will evolve. @rotnroll666.bsky.social ‘s mention might have brought you to me ;) On the other hand, mastodon didn’t let me down the past years. (Don’t want to leave you without a nice photo.)
