Tomorrow is my first real working day as a permanent employee (after the one and a half weeks of vacation I already had). In the same company and in the same team where I also completed my dual studies and my bachelor thesis, but it’s still something “new”. I’m curious to see how it will turn out. 🤓
I stumbled upon this GitHub repository and I think it’s pretty funny. Of course, once you get to know all of Go’s features, you’ll want to try them out. But with enough experience you end up with simple code again.
I didn’t expect to see snow again this spring.

At work we are still using Java 8 for a project, but an upgrade will be needed in the future. To see what has changed, there is a list created by Dávid Csákvári that lists all the new features of the language and JVM that happened between Java 8 and Java 16. And that are indeed quite a lot.
Now March is over as well, so it’s time to take a look at what was going on in March for me.
It seems that Deutsche Bahn has finally improved their on-board WiFi. 👍 It’s actually usable, even for programming over SSH with Visual Studio Code. Sometimes the connection is a bit slow, but we are also going through tunnels.
