First time in the last 16 years, I’m proud of my country. I have always been proud of our history and heritage, but today was just something else. Nearly 80% of Hungarians decided that they care enough to vote, and showed the largest middle finger of the decade to authoritarianism. Well done. 🫡

I wouldn’t say all in, but it certainly is useful. I personally hate what is happening in terms of AI and the world, but if you are using correctly, it’s definitely really helpful. It’s really hard to match AI output, but you need to pick your battles, what is by hand, what to generate.

I like work from home Wednesdays. I found some breakfast in the garden… and some lunch, and also the veggies for the rest of the week. 🍅🥒🍓

On a chopping board, freshly picked strawberries, cherry tomatoes, cucumbers, green beans and a courgette.

Incredibly relaxing… unless the foxes dig up my beans, but even then… it’s hard to be mad at nature doing it’s thing :)

Finally, catching a break. Startup life goes with break-neck speed, it’s nice to enjoy some sunshine, and tend to our first forming crops. Sure, I love coding all week long, I enjoy my job, but it’s great to have some no-screen hobbies. ☀️🌱

I’ve heard about foxes attacking chicken coops before, sure. 🐓 But them conducting a night raid digging up my potatoes is new 🤣🦊🥔 I love you, foxes, but it’s on.

Keeping far away from Easter traditions, especially from the Easter European ones. 🤣 In Hungary where I’m from, Easter is kind of a mess. 😂

Spent quite a few hours outside today, it felt like a nice exercise. The garden is pretty neglected, but we will try to make the best out of it. A lot to learn 🪴 See how enthusiastic I’ll be once the weather is bad 🤣

New side project: since we had to move to a new house anyway, making use of our new garden. Bird feeder and bird bath out, lawn clipped, meadow seeds sowed, sowing our first vegetable crops and garden flowers indoors. 🌱 Tell me I’m approaching 40 without telling me I’m approaching 40. 🫠

Real pain of a feature to work on today, nearly untestable locally, some pretty mean event driven async systems. No other way than TDD my way though it till having confidence, then release them canaries. 🐤 I don’t usually TDD, but when I do… they tend to save my backside. Unit tests, yay!

It’s called Kew Gardens, beautiful place. Quite pricey to get in, but apparently it’s a world famous garden. Pretty close to where we live though :)

What a last few weeks. Love working for a startup, I can never anticipate the curve balls I’m getting, and really excited to get them solved. I’ve been working on solving some race conditions between micro-services… and wow, do we take database transactions for granted 🤣

Nice and relaxing Sunday, on the way out of the seasonal depression. Green tends to be helpful. Really need to recharge for another hell of a week coming.

What a few months. Messy start for the year with the house moving, gloomy weather and the absolute grinder at work… Finally, looking forward to a relaxing weekend to turn it around. Will get back to studies and side project soon, but sanity first. …and a good rest, like our guest in the backyard.

Took a few days off for getting my nerves sorted, walking in somewhere green tends to help. Went out to admire some engineering work in it’s new habitat, visited the local beaver re-introduction project. Bober were asleep, but definitely hard at work at night… 🦫

Just a normal London suburban neighbourhood. Amazon delivery guy trying to delvirt, actually asked me if he is MY fox. 🫠 Hilarious, seems like foxes ARE domesticating themselves. Wow. Am I a Druid or a Ranger to have a guard fox? 🦊

Really interesting animals… they can scream like there is no tomorrow though. We caught this one today in the backyard, playing with a flashy /glowing toy that it snatched somewhere in the neighbourhood.

We don’t have frost or snow here anymore these days, so I take what I get ❄️ I might be a hopeless romantic with the seasons, but I always feel ripped off it a winter is just wet and muddy. 🫠

Happy New Year, everyone. Expecting a particularly wild year, and crazy high pace. Also kind of nuts to see, that we are transitioning into the 2nd quarter of the century. This decade was 🦇💩 crazy so far the say the least, and not even half way through. No wonder time is flying.

Playing a lot of boardgames, fortunately! That’s a lot easier to organise with friends, and playing with wifey a lot as well just the two of us. We do have a decent collection, and a growing shelf space problem 🤣

I’m pretty sure i’d find people around in London too :) For me, I played a tabletop RPG last around 2011. Never D&D, but I really miss it sometimes. Left my old party behind when I moved to the UK.

Fortunately, most editors either have them, or extensible :) For the off case when I need Code or Android Studio instead of my regular editor, I can still use at least the basics.
