Bluesky Social

3pm and on. Caught in between a rock, a hard place and technology. Specifically incrementing by two the count of hours wasted on quirks in a certain collaboration platform. Took stunned note of the surprised, confused administrators face, looking at the brief management dashboard and seeing to happen what shouldn't. Wrestling complexity with blunt tools. Who might eventually win?

Irgendwoanders, später. Sehr zögernd voran, Füße im hohen Gras ungeplanter Wege, und weiter. Über dem Block hängen weiße Wolken, dazwischen versucht eine matte Sonne, mit ihrer ganzen Kraft die Elstern auf dem Giebel zu blenden. Reaktionen indes bleiben aus. Tief in den Kopfhörern diskutieren Experten miteinander, finden immer noch keinen gemeinsamen Nenner in kritischen Fragen. Aber die Antworten fehlen schon seit Monaten, insofern lässt der Fortgang jegliche Überraschung vermissen, und die Konzentration wird immer dünner. Unten am Rande der Straße stehen Kisten und junge Menschen in Arbeitskleidung. Ein Möbelwagen rangiert in knapper Parklücke. An den Kneipentischen sitzen Bauarbeiter in der Mittagspause und beobachten das Treiben mäßig interessiert. Gerade halb durch eine Woche, die sich fragmentiert und uneben anfühlt.

Oh #Fediverse , I admire you but sometimes I <that-other-word> the way how technically cumbersome you are. 😬

Close to 8am. Cleaning what's left of yesterdays day off. Or: Expect issues in distributed projects where others keep working while you're away. The joy of reviewing conflicting changes, the joy of figuring out which problem can remain unsolved to fix everything else. Maybe first-come-first-served is a valid strategy at this point, at least while intending to stay sane.

Fields of the Nephilim At the Gates of Silent Memory - Invidious

7pm, above the city. The scent of fires in the backyards, the sound of small feet carrying small ghosts through the streets and the stairway. Giggling voices, more excited than scary. (Maybe feeling content with others being happy and enjoying themselves isn't all too bad.)
