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.

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

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. πŸ…πŸ₯’πŸ“

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. β˜€οΈπŸŒ±

First squad out, next squad is hardening 🫑 πŸ…

Overnight casualties: the fox dug up the radishes this time 🦊🫜

Wow, I really am approaching 40 🀣

I’ve heard about foxes attacking chicken coops before, sure. πŸ“
But them conducting a night raid digging up my potatoes is new 🀣🦊πŸ₯”

I love you, foxes, but it’s on.

Saturday vibe after a busy week… I’m inclined to agree with the neighbour.

I shall follow the wisdom of nature and follow it’s lead.

Keeping far away from Easter traditions, especially from the Easter European ones. 🀣
In Hungary where I’m from, Easter is kind of a mess. πŸ˜‚

Easter weekend! 🐰
For some reason, we have most of our bank holidays clustered around the spring. 🌱

It’s a joint venture here too :)
Will see how well they do :)

Awesome!
What are you growing?
We are starting out this year, we finally have a garden in the new house. Very excited πŸͺ΄

Few more years, but now I lock that in as a present for myself for my 40th 🀣🀣🀣

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 πŸͺ΄
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!

There are so many of them, loving the area. The other day I saw three of them lounging in the backyard. 🦊🦊🦊

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 🀣

Yeah, also trying to stay away from the eX, just to keep my sanity in check these days 🫠
World might have gone crazy, we won’t necessarily have to. πŸ¦„

Great to see you here, I missed you!
I’ll try to post here or there, might even staring to post regularly at some point. Getting really tired of the gloom all the time :)

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… 🦫
