So how many hours does it take to fill out that CSS Survey?
It was loud! 📣
Very happy too that I managed to spot it even though it was a bit far. Took a while.
I also think great reed warbler is a bad name. TrastsÄngare (thrush warbler) is much better.

"År 1973 skrev Ursula K. Le Guin sin prisbelönta berĂ€ttelse De som gĂ„r bort frĂ„n Omelas. Denna korta science fiction-berĂ€ttelse beskriver en idyllisk stad, Omelas, dĂ€r alla mĂ€nniskor Ă€r glada och vid god hĂ€lsa. Staden firar sin sommarfestival med blommor, utsökt mat, flöjtspel och barn som tĂ€vlar pĂ„ hĂ€strygg. Den lycka och hĂ€nförelse som förkroppsligar staden kĂ€nns för bra för att vara helt sann.

Och det Ă€r den.”

Yes, this was of course inspired by this toot.

But I I’ve never heard that I will loose my job because of smartphones, web3 or quantum computers.

It is 2000. I'm 18 years old. They say my job won't survive quantum computing (IBM is really close). It is 2005. I'm 23 years old. They say my job won't survive visual IDEs. It is 2010. I'm 28 years old. They say my job won't survive smartphones. It is 2015. I'm 33 years old. They say my job won't survive web3. It is 2020. I'm 38 years old. They say my job won't survive AI. It is 2025. I'm 43 years old. They say my job won't survive quantum computing.

Just realized that 20 years ago I was listening to a man giving a speech.

It was about how software developers wouldn’t be needed anymore. Anyone would be able to build things with a visual IDE.
”You should all look for something else to do!”

Today I listened to a man saying that software developers isn’t needed anymore. Anyone can build anything with AI.
”You should all look for something else to do!”

I wonder what will replace me in 2045?

This gull though. đŸ„°

Yes, I’m very much aware that it’s extremely common in North America and that it also visits the UK now and then. But here it’s such a rarity.

I got it!

This gull has never been spotted before where I live.
So this was really cool!

Here’s a photo I got where the difference to our common gull is pretty obvious.

On my way trying to get a glimpse of a ring-billed gull. Never seen one before.
Aaaah, excited!

Wish me luck! đŸ€ž

Pretty! đŸ©”
