Just a small comparison to show that many websites are completely obese: My bachelor thesis in PDF format (which I handed in yesterday) has a size of 1.4 MB. It contains several images and 85 pages of text. With a high information density, this is a much smaller size than most websites have. And it would have been probably also possible to compress or optimize the PDF further.

What I like about Deezer compared to Spotify: They don’t do those A/B tests where only a small group of users receives new features. They just release them for everyone. In other words, they just added an option to the Audiobooks app to adjust the playback speed. I can finally listen to audiobooks in 1.4x or 1.6x speed now.

Sometimes the problem with programming is that you can’t turn off your mind as easily as you can turn off your PC. Practically, you don’t program anymore. But the brain still continues to program.

This week is the final spurt for my bachelor thesis. I want to submit it on Thursday or Friday. Then there’s my presentation two or three weeks later. And when I pass that, I’m no longer a student. I’m excited, but it’s also a strange feeling after more than three and a half years of working towards this goal.

I like my new waffle iron! 🧇😋😍

The sun is shining, but it’s still somewhat cold. 🌞

Today was probably the last day with temperatures close to 20°C in the near future. But that’s ok, because 20°C is quite warm in February.

I used the good weather and remaining sun today to do an after-work pedelec ride and explore the nature around me. Here are some visual impressions. 🌆🦌

With beautiful weather and 17°C today I made a bike ride with my pedelec again.

Good weather today meant that there was a lot going on in the park. After almost -20°C last week, almost +20°C are expected this weekend.
