How I checked the battery health of my Android phone 🔋

Published on in 📱 appydroid

My smartphone, a Samsung Galaxy S10 Lite, which has been my daily driver for a year and a few months, has a 4500mAh Li-Po battery ("lithium-ion polymer" – like lithium-ion, but with solid or gel-like electrolytes that allow a thinner design). My smartphone can be charged with a maximum of 45 watts. The included charger, which I always use for charging, delivers a maximum of 25 watts.

Thank you for featuring my blog in your latest “Advent of Bloggers” post and your kind words, James! 🤓

Just two notes:

Jan’s blog has a simple design: the background is black and the text is white.

That’s with dark mode. With light mode it’s white background and black text.

There is also a German version of the blog for those would prefer to browse the blog in German.

It doesn’t just contain German translations, it mostly contains posts that are just relevant in German. So for those who understand German, I recommend reading both.

Micro.blog’s new newsletter feature

Published on in 💭 Thoughts

I think the new micro.blog feature for newsletters is the right approach. Blog first, newsletter second. But newsletters are not difficult to set up, they only need to be activated by a checkbox.

Building Docker images in Drone CI using Docker-in-Docker

Published on in 👨‍💻 Dev

This evening I tried to improve the build process of GoBlog. GoBlog gets built using Drone CI and Docker. The problem was that two image variants are to be built, one based on the other, and the whole thing always took quite a long time.

I’ve never really done test-driven development (TDD). But Advent of Code offers the perfect opportunity for that, because there is already an example input and an example result. So it is possible to create a test first and program until the test passes.
