Two things must ye know about devs who say "I just wanna write code!"
1. They're the first to complain when requirements aren't clear, or when the architecture doesn't work, or when testers "break the code", or when their changes conflict with other people's
2. They often write the worst code, too

The current US administration removed an exhibit in honour of black soldiers in #W0II from the #Margraten graveyard in the Netherlands. Dutch tv show #EvenTotHier replaced it on Dutch soil next to the memorial (which is US soil) #BLM

I've lately been obsessed with this app called StreetComplete. It gamifies contributing to OpenStreetMaps in by giving you you quests to do while you walk around. A fun way to get some steps in, to make you look closer at your environment and to do a good thing!
