Started reading "Fundamentals of Software Engineering" by Mark Richards and Neal Ford today. A few pages in, it has this this sentence

"The main point is that almost every decision an architect makes will be challenged."

While I'm still not sure if I can/should call me a software architect, this totally feels like my every day. This sentence gave me a bit inner calm and tuned down some nasty inner voices.

May 26, 1637, the Puritans and their allies surround the Pequot Indian stronghold called Mystic Fort near what is now Stonington, Connecticut. They set it ablaze, then shoot those who flee the flames. By dawn, over 400 are dead—mostly women and children.

And yet, we still call Puritans the “peaceful” settlers.

I know this is a long shot, but nothing ventured, nothing gained and maybe the fediverse can help.

🇬🇧My oldest son (19) is moving to Eindhoven to study design at the Design Academy Eindhoven. He's looking for a room to rent, which is proving very difficult. Is there anyone in the fediverse who can help him with a room either in Eindhoven or nearby? He doesn't mind commuting.

🇳🇱Mijn oudste zoon (19) gaat design studeren aan de Design Academy in Eindhoven. Hij is op zoek naar een kamer, wat erg moeilijk blijkt te zijn. Is er iemand in de fediverse die hem aan een kamer kan helpen in Eindhoven of omgeving? Hij vindt het niet erg om te reizen.
