The forest has been fucking with my head, but maybe there's some good trees I could get lost in?

(I hope so, I'm struggling this week)

That moment when you realize that in “You Only Live Once”, Julian Casablancas first seems to be arguing in a back-and-forth dialogue with the lead guitar, but then, when he sings the line “and I’ll get along with you”, he actually sings along with it. 😙👌

Das beeindruckende bei der Deutschen Bahn ist, dass sie noch schlechter ist, als ihr Ruf.

By the way, do you have a personal website and does it have a home page? (I’m pretty sure it does… 😁)

I would love to know: what’s on your “home” and why?

Feel free to share a link, of course. 🤗 As always, I’m also asking on behalf of my newsletter subscribers.

As more and more people are posting about their arrival in Düsseldorf for , FOMO is growing strong over here, as I won’t be able to attend this edition because of one of our kids’ birthday. 😢 (But also: 🥳🎂)

I would have loved to see and talk to sooo many of you! I really hope you’re having an incredible, wonderful time together! 💚 Maybe I’ll see a few of you at ?

Also: share as many pictures and quotes as you can from the event using the hashtag and retoot the heck out of them – like I’ll do! 🤘🔥 Maybe we can get it trending tomorrow, or at least create some good old Twitter conference vibes? 🤗

It's 7AM and I've already confused margin-block-end with margin-inline-end.

@matthiasott@mastodon.social avatar

@matuzo Also: are you secretly working on your personal site again? 😉

matthiasott,
@matthiasott@mastodon.social avatar

@matuzo … one year ahead of schedule? I’m sure @mxbck will also have written another blog post by then. 🙃

Nach kurzer Urlaubsunterbrechung geht die Erklärbär World Domination Tour weiter. Die nächsten ~36 Stunden bestehen aus einem Kurztrip nach Mainz, diesmal mit deutlich mehr und knapperen Transfers als vor zwei Wochen. Popcorn bereithalten! Etappe 1 startet wie gewohnt auf dem Drahtesel...

@sir_pepe @sir_pepe das ist aber ein sehr, sehr schönes Rollup, stimmts @matuzo? 😁

I'm in the market for a new CLICKER - my old one, which I bought for SxSW 2007, has finally given up the ghost.

Mac/Keynote. Preferably USB-C.

Any tips? Best/worst?

@SaraSoueidan @pepelsbey @ppk Another vote for the Logitech Spotlight. But you need to make sure to charge it from time to time if you don’t use it regularly: https://matthiasott.com/notes/fixing-the-logitech-spotlight

Please read this as what it is: anecdotal evidence. But it tells you a lot about the current status of computer science education in Germany.

My son’s teacher insists that an if statement always also needs an else.
Always.
Empty, if need be.
He wrote an empty else { }.

😐

Latest news about my son’s informatics teacher: he writes everything that’s inside of a function in one single line. No line breaks. And he also doesn’t use spaces after the semicolons. So every function just turns into a veeeeee;eeereee;eeesee;eeeee;ery long line. 🤨

@phlp That’s it! 😂

@bastianallgeier I’m not so sure about the former tbh. 😅 But at least he seems to make a virtue out of necessity: whenever there is some new concept to explain, he asks the students whether any of them would like to explain it instead.

matthiasott,
@matthiasott@mastodon.social avatar

@bastianallgeier My son also used a

return;

in his code to exit a method. When another student asked what that means, the teacher replied: “Oh, he’s just doing his own thing again.”

@kraftner @bastianallgeier Very true! 😊
