All I wanted to do was create an automated test for one of our product workflows.
I ended up finding a bug which completely breaks the workflow. However it only happens on Linux in a specific shell - and it exists in one of our other products as well.

A bug which has a three line fix no less. 🫠

It's just not what I expected from the training.
On top of that I learned the things the training is focusing on already during my own therapy like "Put your own oxygen mask on first", "don't neglect your own needs", "regularly check in with yourself how you're doing" (2/2)

My wife and I are attending a training for parents of kids with ADHD. The further the training goes the more it becomes apparent that it's actually a group therapy for parents in disguise. Which isn't bad - parents will be able to handle their children better after doing their own homework. (1/2)

Ich habe wieder freie Commission Slots für Topflappen.
Egal ob Pride flags oder Lieblingsfarben. Eckig oder Rund.

The blouse is so gorgeous 🤩
You look beautiful and I hope your weekend was as as great as this whole outfit

that they have kept their relationship intensely private to the point that this is how we find out is probably the best sign they might actually make it

anyway, rules are rules, here is the exact moment she fell in love

Weißt du was toll ist? Mir ist völlig egal ob du cool bist oder nicht.
Auf mich wirkst du wie ein sehr lieber und sympathischer Mensch und wie eine Person mit der ich gerne Zeit verbringen möchte.
Das hat rein garnichts mit cool zu tun.

Felt cute during #pole, got dizzy quickly 😅

"Everybody has the same 24h" ok, but not everyone has the same amount of work, responsibility, obstacles, resources, help, and fucking patience.

I think that's where my confusion came from. My skirt goes "wheeee" when I'm spinning and that is twirly not flowy. Right?
Then again if you have recommendations or more information on either flowy or twirly I'll happily take them

Two stacks of shopping baskets at my supermarket. One black, one pink.

My local supermarket has introduced flirt baskets: take a pink one to signal you're open for a flirt.
That's a cute idea at first glance, right?
Except when all black baskets are taken. Because signalling I'm open to be flirted at when I'm not just doesn't feel *safe*.
I guess it's a girl thing.

CW: transphobia.

See, this is why it can be painful to know too much history.🫤

This post implies that what is happening in Kansas is *similar* to what the nazis did.

But it's not just similar. It's *identical*.

In 1933, nazis revoked trans people's documents. Before 1938.

Paragraph 175 and 183.

Thank you for being ready to defend the skirt against untenable allegations.

Up until yesterday I thought my own skirt was proper flowy as well but I've got to admit: I didn't know just how flowy flowy can be.

A bipedal red fox paints a rainbow across the sky. They have a determined look on their face. To the right of the rainbow are segments of text from newspaper articles about grim news for LGBTQIA+ folks, especially trans folks. On the left, there are flowers on the ground, with butterflies flittering about. The discouraging words are illegible faint smudges. Artist: BriarhideIllust

Persist against all odds

Jaaa!
Bin schon auf der Suche wo ich einen ähnlichen Rock finden kann. Das Muster ist nicht 100% das was ich für meine Choreo will.

She's right though - her skirt is way more flowy 🥰 (3/2)

I've known her for three years now and it still warms my heart to hear her say:
"Your skirt could be more flowy. Here, try mine!"
"If you want to add heels we'll find a way. What about ..."
It's her unconditional acceptance which makes me feel safe in this studio since day 1. (2/2)

I love my #pole studio and it's owner so much.
I'm working on a performance for the studio anniversary and today I asked her for help and feedback.
Not only did she get the story I'm trying to tell in my choreography, her feedback was amazing and helpful. (1/2)

Ich will immer noch nicht, dass das untergeht. Und an alle Betroffenen:

Mit euch wurde unfair und absolut entgrenzt umgegangen, ihr wurdet unfair behandelt, ihr hättet nichts anders oder besser machen können. Und ihr seid (leider!) nicht alleine 💜

All your bots are belong to US if you don't play ball, DoD tells Anthropic AI firm drops key safety pledge as Pentagon dispute drags on US Secretary of Defense Pete Hegseth has made Anthropic an offer it may not be able to refuse. The Defense Department and the AI firm held a meeting at the Pentagon on Tuesday, where the government tried to compel the house of Claude to lift some restrictions on military use of its tech. However, recent changes to the company's safety policy suggest it may be willing to be more flexible than it's letting on. …

Morgen gibt es im EU Parlament eine Entscheidung zu sicheren und legalen Schwangerschaftsabbrüchen. Super wichtig und längst überfällig.

Traurig ist, dass es dabei Mal wieder (vorallem) um Zugänge für (cis) Frauen geht.

A strange game. The only winning move is not to play

Comic in vier Panels, vollcoloriert.
Erstes Panel: Es ist Nacht, ein Wolf schaut traurig in den Sternenhimmel. Darüber steht auf Englisch: I know, life’s a mess lately.

Zweites Panel: Der Hintergrund ist jetzt dunkelrot, gelbe unruhige Striche umrahmen das Panel. Der Wolf schaut ängstlich und panisch um sich.
Über ihm steht: A constant struggle, overwhelming and exhausting.

Drittes Panel: Der Hintergrund ist rot, ein großes rotes geisterhaftes Monster erscheint, der Wolf ist in Kampfstellung knurrt. Darüber steht: But I know you can fight the fight.

Viertes Panel:
Es ist wieder Nacht, der Wolf liegt zusammengerollt schlafend auf den Boden, über seinen Körper sind viele Wunden und Narben verteilt.
Über ihm steht: And don’t forget to rest and recover. You are badass.

Der Comic war schon länger in meinem Kopf und er macht mir wieder etwas Mut. Vielleicht hilft er euch auch 💜. We can fight the fight!

Claudia Badell wrote an article on the Holistic Testing Model- definitely worth a read. qadrive.com/blog/holisti...
If this tweaks your interest and you'd like more information, Lisa Crispin and I have a book about it available on LeanPub and Amazon. You can find more on our website agiletester.ca/

I think this is one of those things that's stunning, in all the worst ways, and most of them aren't obvious.

Let's start with the basics: there are about 5.5 million trans Americans. This means that *nearly 10% of the entire trans population of the nation* has moved.

Yikes!

Another day, another newsletter from a big software testing company which starts with "Hello and a good day Mrs/Mr Geyer".
I replied with feedback on why this salutation excludes people and which phrases could be used instead. I'm curious to see if they will reply.

Gute Besserung!
