Building Resilience In the beginning of the year we had a conversation with my manager about my yearly goals. Due to the nature of my current project and the ne...

As soft skills are important to me, I published a short post about what I learned about resilience recently: coding-with-lilla.blogspot.com/2025/07/buil...

Very informative talk, thank you for sharing. You mentioned marketing is very important in the org. What do you think the platform developers can/should do in this area?

This weekend I saw for the first time German military recruitment ads. It makes sense with the increased budget, I just did not expect to be reminded of it so directly...

On the train after #KubeCon. I am returning tired with a lot of new knowledge and experiences. I am still shocked by the amount of people - and now I know why I cannot follow all the new releases. No way I can keep up with 12K people! πŸ˜‚

Just talked to a staff member. Apparently they had to escalate. Four managers came in and cleared the path. Have fun with Crossplane, crossing my fingers you get to add it to the customers' projects! ☺️

Yeah, the room was super full. People were sitting on the floor on the side too, until staff made them stand up. But good to see how popular Crossplane is, now that I am having the chance to work with it at my company.

On my third coffee today - I have so much energy, but I also have to remind myself that we don't deploy on Fridays!

I'm using renovate now. We also have govulncheck in the pipelines. It's been yellow for a while and it is sooo annoying to wait for all the dependencies to propagate fixes for newly found CVEs. I hope I get to have green pipelines with up to date dependencies some day...

Just spent around two hours with Cursor building a portfolio website. Started off in OpenAI for the initial schema and generated images using Microsoft Copilot. I have no AI experience, and I am super impressed by all I could achieve just by telling the tools what to do.

Heard at #FOSDEM
"If the tax money is used for software, the public should be have to acess the source code".

Couldn't agree more with this

#FOSDEM was fun this year as well. They even had bubble tea! πŸ§‹ Feeling inspired to see what I can do with all the newly acquired knowledge! I especially loved learning about green energy projects, new EU policies and all the challenges the SBOM devs are facing

a bunch of drawn diagrams of hand stretches. the text at the top reads MAKE TIME TO STRETCH! 

it shows wrist extensions and flexions, with the arm straight out and hand palm out with the hand gently stretched up and down. the same stretches with the hand in a fist. the same stretch but with the palm against a wall. a stretch of pressing your palms together with wrists parallel to the ground and slowly lowering the heels of the palms. and a gentle shaking out of the hands.

since this will always be circulating, i might as well be the first one to put it here: the stretch tips i made many years ago… remember to stop and stretch and take care of your hands! be mindful of your work time & listen to your body.

For me it means building company-specific infra tools so that all the unnecessary details coming from the cloud providers don't get in the devs' way.

I agree. I was getting annoyed by all the ads, and the community wasn't as active as here.
