What I like so much about London is the complete lack of a sense of reality. 🇬🇧 Example : ATM Really?

With the help of GitHub Actions, I've also created a minimalist yet fully functional GUI for adding new entries.

The best is yet to come? Maybe ... My co-hosted session with Raimund Andree from @psconf.eu EU is public. This gives me the oppurtinity to display my awesome new URI-shortener. "Reverse AI-ngineering", get it here: butz.io/psconfeu26

One day, I’d love to give a speech on the topic: „How dare you, MSFT?“ For some unknown reason, nobody has shown any interest in this so far.

The most beloved and most extraordinary session of the annual #PSConfEU: @tracisewell.com about mental health. Did I mention that you could hear a pin drop?

Imagine Paul McCartney chatting about writing 'Hey Jude'. Listening to @jsnover.com talk about wmic.exe live on stage gives me such a warm, heartfelt feeling. It's living history at #psconfeu!

@bjompen.com absolutely rocks the house. And his also using Reaper as DAW - could it be any better ? no! #Psconfeu

I've just played a nice smartphone game, which I think is a bit overpriced, but it's still good. Your task is to gently move your ID at the back of your phone. At random, your phone will prompt you to stop moving your ID. You have to prove that you can pause for a moment. It’s called ETA. 🇬🇧

Here’s my suggestion for a role model: this is Age. He’s been helping to make the #Fietselfstedentocht happen for 50 years. Just one of many, many volunteers. Bedankt, meneer, van harte bedankt! 🚴🏻‍♂️🚴🏽🚴🏾

While I prepped my Wiesbaden PoshaKucha, I stumbled about another idea , that might be the best topic that ever came into my mind: „The tale of little and big endian(s)“ I’d like to offer it to YOU: does anyone wanna do a PK about it! Try! #psconfeu

The mother of all mistakes: badges should always have the wearer’s name on both sides. Bear in mind that, just as bread always falls butter-side down, the name is always on the other side. 🤣 #mctsarajevo #mct
