I'm a long-time user of @wikipedia.org, and especially Wiktionary for language learning.
I support it especially at the time it comes under attack from fascists and nazis with too much money on their hands.

Public speaking is always nice. Speaking at @gotocon.com even better, but speaking at #GOTOcph is top! I even got my own branded tee-shirt ☺️
Thanks to the team and thanks to everyone who attended my talk 🙏
Now time for some tourism around Copenhagen and Malmö

I congratulate all Ukrainians with the day of the independence of Ukraine. Ukrainians are still fighting for it, 24 years after.
Be strong, my friends. You're not alone!

Yesterday, I made my first steps with @gohugoio.bsky.social. The build is fast, very fast indeed, but I must say I'm very happy I know Jekyll, because the way the documentation is organized, i.e., in a Hugo-generated way, isn't friendly to beginners.

First attempt for my friend and me on this brand-new game. We learned the mechanics by playing.
The theme is so-so, but the worker placement mechanics has some nice twists. I'll be happy to try it again.

That's my second attempt at this deck-building game, even though I finished last out of 3. I love the material and the way to count points–very visible and straightforward.

Couple of boardgames from the last week.
1. Men-Nefer

My first attempt. I scored an honourable second place out of 4 behind a seasoned gamer. I should probably try it once more, but I can wait.

By the way, I'm appalled by @lufthansa.bsky.social's treatment of its Senator members. It seems that after 3 hours of waiting with little to no communication, a warm dinner is too much to provide?
I don't care about a fancy chocolate during the flight, I do care about service when things go wrong.

Finally home from #CloudNative Oslo and Incontro #DevOps Italia. Thanks for both team for the flawless organization.
Unfortunately, my flight back home was canceled, I had to fly back on Sunday, but at least, I had the opportunity to shoot a nice picture 🌈
