Yesterday, Claude successfully (and painfully) got authenticated with my repo.
Today, I could not work out how to authenticate personally through the commandline (I have a passcode, it needs a password).
So I'm reduced to spending $0.10 to ask the LLM to do `git push`.

WAAAAAAAAAARGH.

Our Solar System is orbiting the center of our Galaxy at about 220 km/s so in 2025 we collectively traveled something like 7 billion kilometers across the Milky Way. Once in a while, when you have a moment, it’s worthwhile to take a look around, see where you are, and appreciate how far you’ve come.

A foggy day at the North Sea on Nordstrand in December 2025. Going for a – short! – swim in 6°C water. (And then to the public pool for a longer swim in water that's 20 (℃) degrees warmer.)

Had a blast teaching Playwright on Monday!
Now gearing up for Thursday's mission: CSI: Flaky Tests.
We're investigating the crime scene of unstable automation to uncover the root cause: flawed assumptions about system state.
Come ready to solve the case!

Leaving @agiletdzone.bsky.social. Always love to visit Potsdam so I went for a very quick quick walk before departure. I love the event and every year I make some new friends. Also good to revisit the old ones, sometimes it is hard to find the time to be with everybody :) see you soon ;)

Documentation is often hard to find, outdated, misleading, badly written, or simply doesn’t exist… 😒📖

I just finished my #AgileTD talk on how to manage your team’s documentation to end up in a better place.

I’m really happy how the talk turned out and grateful for the very good questions.
