My Twitter archive of November 2020

In October 2022 I left Twitter. This is my tweet archive for November 2020.

Tweets

• @ollispieps @gsaslis @Poschi3 Thank you!
• I agree with all of them! https://t.co/KmLhAAmjaB
• How Nordic languages work: https://t.co/hPANG1u1wM
• I've started to convert the @bifravst docs to #RestructuredText and @readthedocs ... It's great to see that it provides some nice features like callout boxes (for notes/warnings) and hierarchical navigation out of the box. https://t.co/Hpqtjc0ZCS
• We got the keys to our new apartment in #Trondheim 🇳🇴 today. It has an amazing view: 🤩 https://t.co/VXra1E5iiV
• Oh yeah, Club Mate just got a lot cheaper! #Norway 🇳🇴 😥 https://t.co/QHeRDcQgKW
• @kamilleblumm @AnnNat A couch and a campervan!
• @alterisian Should be here any day now. It's way too warm and normal we would have snow for 2 weeks or so already.
• @miskaknapek Yes, it's beech wooden panels, feels and looks very nice!
• Tried to change the keys on my @XBowstech tonight, but I didn't realize that the Kickstarter version doesn't have swappable switches :/ Looks like I have to order the current edition for that. https://t.co/wV5UiZvD1H
• @garstenko Tomorrow it will! https://t.co/e5hJ8ds4gO
• @autiomaa Well, the housing market in Trondheim was not so impressed by Corona. Prices still went up, and fewer people were selling so... But we are here now in the 4 year, so it makes sense to stop paying rent.
• @mdoersam @XBowstech I unsoldered it! It's fixed again.
• @dinzydinzy Yes, we are moving in this week, so we can do that!
• @tine2k Right now around EUR 3,16...
• @tine2k It used to be 45 NOK.
• @tine2k 85 cents in Germany ...
• @pati_gallardo The X-Men movies are great. Then Iron Man. I don't like the Avengers crap.
• @liran_tal @pati_gallardo Yes, but it went downward from there. :/
• @pati_gallardo ... Unfortunately Deadpool is not on Disney+. It's legendary! https://t.co/z65yDsKXGR
• Take advice only from people who look like you. https://t.co/IfWSyydoLx
• Typical Norwegian kitchen utensils: https://t.co/H7yc0Ce0WQ
• Bringing external data into scenarios to make the data reusable: https://t.co/BW7qcjBxYv #bdd
• The @bifravst docs are now authored using Nordic's documentation format: reStructured Text. Publication is now on GitHub pages: https://t.co/e5U1XxnfKK
• People who use 4 numbers in their versioning scheme. Why?!
• Jesus. https://t.co/j4UsvbPsv3
• @Jan0707 @paulroho But build is not a release.
• @Jan0707 @paulroho So, for me adding a build number is superfluous, because there should not be two versions with different build IDs.
• @Jan0707 In that case it's just <date>-<hash> for developers looking at strings. But is that meaningful for others?
• None of your fucking business. https://t.co/kFS9v8sEyJ
• Hiring Juniors, they are. Remote, they work. Awesome, this is! https://t.co/0RkCKEpHKY
• @spazierendenken https://t.co/yiB4dWwNXZ
• We need this account to uphold our fucking sanity @Twitter. https://t.co/GpenqaHuaN
• @bitandbang I mean, the customer list is quite long so there are people who think it's worth having engineers using them: https://t.co/0lboVXIhPm
• @bitandbang Ah, gotcha. I think Netlify has great value for beyond hosting static websites, the PR preview feature is great and I think this also provides value for non-JS projects. It's S3 website hosting on steroids, so there is value for all web teams, IMHO.
• Glad to hear that I've made something useful: https://t.co/0MIXL6LMzi https://t.co/XSylAWkP6u
• The new flat has fiber! https://t.co/YD6n7HQ0It
• @lucianadrian Is there wireless fiber?!
• Still no snow in #Trondheim, either. https://t.co/V0hxwRGmBp
• I got a new office! Or, I moved to new apartment. #2020
• @Stephan_Strange 300 MBit/s kosten 809 NOK, also umgerechnet etwa 80 EUR im Monat. https://t.co/x9fGciVzOd
• @lucianadrian That was from a PC connected via Ethernet to a Gigabout Router which is plugged into the Fiber Modem.
• @lucianadrian This is from a smartphone, via a Unify NanoHD AP. https://t.co/XK6McTeVFY
• @meikeco https://t.co/TqVm1AlBba
• @lucianadrian I just put them in the microwave to test that! At work we have fancier metal boxes for shielding RF, but the principle is roughly the same: https://t.co/Q3BMwTObt0
• @Stephan_Strange Uh, krass.
• Creating a serverless CosmosDB takes quite a long time: around 8 minutes. @bifravst https://t.co/Ky0gjqBV8m https://t.co/rval4b4evD
• Typical Norwegian way to spend our 99% renewable energy: electrical heating. https://t.co/v9INdcvhv8
• @Robin_M_Saltnes I did actually use the Bluetooth feature to configure it to connect to the 2.4 GHz WiFi ... But WiFi makes sense, so I can control them even when I am not at home!
• @Robin_M_Saltnes Not on my personal budget :p
• Damn, @Azure: via Samples > Web apps & serverless on https://t.co/JOTlZ5xjBe https://t.co/0lmhaFnh6P
• 666 https://t.co/AFDiQ3yRw5
• @ianrohdebell I'd went with a heater without WiFi, but they were not available locally, so ...
• It's really annoying that @Azure is not keeping their NPM release in sync somehow. I cannot use @azure/arm-deviceprovisioningservices and @azure/arm-appservice at the same time without #TypeScript complaining because they depend on different versions of @azure/ms-rest-nodeauth.
• @kotzendekrabbe I have used @loom in the past, works great when recording browser based content. https://t.co/NIMcEXJMkb is great if you have more stuff on the screen, and need to switch between different screens / views during the recording.
• Meanwhile in PC land we expect @AMDRyzen and @NVIDIAGeForce products to be available for mere mortals by Q2 2021. https://t.co/8Qrwu4ciwL
• "Erste Untersuchungen zeigen, dass Frauen weniger zu einer Bewerbung neigen, wenn in der Anzeige eine rein männliche Berufsbezeichnungen genannt wird" https://t.co/hMGrrUUGZA
• Today I've converted a Create React App to https://t.co/ffdcZPyx2p because the reload times on code changes got annoyingly long, and it was rather straightforward: https://t.co/6V4cVdj8gY This took around 1,5 hours, while I also inlined all CDN resources.
• @Ocramius Have you seen that? https://t.co/5Q0q1wRiyb
• Aber 2 Klaus! https://t.co/OQb1uO3Aor
• @vicbergquist Norwegian problems!
• @malk_zameth Maybe in a local board game store?
• @malk_zameth https://t.co/HU0D5AD4i2
• Cool bonus feature: @code has a built-in preview for the docs! https://t.co/0IIGDREXs0 https://t.co/JlFsfc0vMF
• Conference panels be like: https://t.co/FSF2bS8P9O
• I was approached on LinkedIn to speak @GeekleOfficial QA summit, which I declined for these reasons: I've seen some warnings about their events on Twitter in the last weeks, from different experienced speakers (e.g. https://t.co/yPgsPN18i0).
• Given that and the fact that it's hard to find out more about past Geekle events (speakers list, recordings) adds to my concern about them be a valuable time invest.
• Looking at this speakers list: https://t.co/RKu9h1Xaqg ... it's full of white dudes. I don't want to speak at conferences that are not diverse.
• If you click on "Visit Event Page" of "Node.js Global Summit" on https://t.co/LkInmoRTDB you get taken to https://t.co/jBdRbAYkK8, which is "Node.JS Case Study Festival" ... buggy. And this page top navigation does not work. And it's full of Geekle team photos, not event photos.
• So another red flag for me. What they should do is to set up a panel of community experts, that are in charge of finding speakers and pay them for it. Then use a blind CfP review process by the community and other speakers.
• Building trustworthy relationships does not start with a "Hey, how about you speak at our event!" on LinkedIn but through building meaningful relationships from within existing communities and through peer connections.
• @48nairda So, it's still online ... but not from your home? 🤨
• @48nairda Maybe give it a try and be surprised! It's not the same like a physical conference, but I had meaningful discussion and great experiences this year at purely online conferences.
• Friday, the 13th, and my PC stopped booting. Seems one of my many USB peripherals is faulty.
• What's the idiomatic @Azure way of continuously deploying a web app from GitHub to a storage account?
• @AzureSupport Thank you, I am using GitHub actions already, but I wanted to double check if there is another typical way of achieving this.
• Was hier in Norwegen so als Weckmann durch geht: knochentrockenes Gebäck aus Weißmehl und viel Zucker. :/ https://t.co/r7saWKyke3
• @eunjae_lee @vicbergquist Canned light beer (4.5% alc) 0,5l for ~3 EUR in the supermarket. Cheapest draft beer in a pub/restaurant 0.5l ~7 EUR Craft beer in Vinmonopolet (state owned alcohol shop, sells above 5% alc drinks) starts at around 6€.
• @petkasp @vicbergquist @eunjae_lee @rexxars The only place I buy spirits in Norway is the duty-free when flying in.
• @eunjae_lee @vicbergquist @rexxars It took me six months to get used to paying 200 NOK for a draft craft beer. Now it's just part of living in this beautiful country.
• @vicbergquist @eunjae_lee @rexxars Here is a sample: https://t.co/RAlSDPPw02
• Organizing a conference and having an open call for proposals. https://t.co/Kwvmj8UxSo
• However, none of the bricks have the same size. https://t.co/C5zEk9wTTK
• #Trondheim 🇳🇴 today, a calm city waiting for the snow. https://t.co/DU0Kwc6nDJ
• @spazierendenken https://t.co/vHr5lVNSfD
• @Morl99 a) if someone tells you it is sexist, it probably is. Listen! b) it proliferates classical sexist stereotypes: the wife is in charge of the household AND does not understand programming, so she is giving wrong instructions.
• @TonyBologni https://t.co/sNa83Y1QIL
• @ianrohdebell @Morl99 @spazierendenken Yes, the programmer's gender isn't the issue, but wife is a woman and, as you said, it's a bad joke that only works because if gender stereotypes.
• Norwegian Twitter: what's the name of this security device that controls power to the cooking plates? https://t.co/wBto9hWZhh
• @kmelve Takk!
• @byteborg These devices cost around 350 EUR and they have a smoke detector inside. If it detects smoke it will start to beep, and if the button is not pressed it will disconnect the power to the cooking plates.
• @byteborg This device is now mandatory in Norway for all new kitchen installations to prevent cooking fires.
• Good point: no automated deployment = no reliable disaster recovery. https://t.co/oMpNOKeO6G (on the inability to set up certain @Azure resources from code)
• @byteborg It's a wireless sensor: https://t.co/Ag1tNAaTA9
• @byteborg The relais is rated 25A, so that should be fine ;-)
• @byteborg Looks pretty beefy to me. https://t.co/BncLZhihwz
• What's the BLE range in space?! https://t.co/muwq6Ukh5S
• Over the past summer, Azure Advocates and Project Managers have been hard at work creating lessons and tutorials for beginners around the world who want to become professional web developers: https://t.co/KtYFsHhllu 24 lessons spanning 12 weeks with projects and quizzes.
• @byteborg I'd say the German 2-phase way is the unusual way compare to many other countries :-) I haven't seen the insides of these boxes, yet.
• @snyksec Weird "Out of sync package.json and package-lock.json detected" errors started to appear on my repos a week ago, and the help page leads to a 404: https://t.co/WNNcg7wHRe PR: https://t.co/0prVSKJtwT
• @snyksec The files have the same modification time, and npm ci works without issues. https://t.co/ePqQYU1038
• @liran_tal @snyksec I am using the GitHub integration of Snyk.
• @maaretp I think it's also worth considering lead times from user to change: how long it takes from a user discovering a problem to it being fixed.
• @liran_tal @snyksec How do I do that? I only have the option to "Marks as successful in SCM" on https://t.co/7PNurLPvZL
• @liran_tal @snyksec I linked to PR in the initial tweet: https://t.co/0prVSKJtwT
• @liran_tal @snyksec Yes, will do. It happened regularly so there should be a new one tomorrow.
• @emsuiko Berlin developers are on an entirely other level compared to Frankfurt ...
• @type__error @a_bangser always has great content: https://t.co/SORphBIO1S
• @KlaraMiffili Absolutely. Every compromise you make is an opportunity you do not take somewhere else.
• Happy to support it again. P.S.: Paypal works @ericwastl! https://t.co/JA1f3khHnc https://t.co/9u9g4wpftc
• How much worth was the ICE contract again? https://t.co/fWcpKlgNZ3
• Both. Seriously. If you start, an electrical is great, because you need to adjust it multiple times per day (you can't stand 8+ hours in the beginning). After a few months you are used to it, and can use a manual variant which you set and forget. https://t.co/A6A8gGl626
• @matschmann Full work day plus sometimes I also code a few hours in the evening.
• @matschmann I no longer have a chair.
• Found a power usage ledger in our new apartment in #Trondheim from 1957: back than you got a 1600 watt connection, and in a year the household used 50 kilowatt hours. https://t.co/N5GIHpkTZu
• @RidingWolf check https://t.co/OXNzrBkPfA, they list quite some shops from around europe as well.
• @kojote Check out @sococo.
• Something new to debug in the @bifravst webapp: "RangeError (byte length of Uint16Array should be a multiple of 2)" when passing FOTA files around ... https://t.co/0P38hYAxOj
• @solacedotcom I am not subscribed, but still get emails. Please fix your marketing tooling! https://t.co/SUPXyFy3li
• base64 to the rescue: https://t.co/XOoZbFP4qQ
• @TonyBologni I guess so. (sent from the couch)
• Did I get this right? We have the most dangerous US president in history commanding literal Nazis on this platform. and Twitter engineers spent the last weeks working on a feature nobody asked for?
• There are still tickets left for @SoCraTes_UK, one of the best remove conference experience I had during the pandemic so far: https://t.co/7PJXK9UtQr If you care about software quality, join us!
• @botherder @Code_Door
• The good thing about working on building continuous delivery of embedded firmware is my growing understanding of how to automate interfacing with the #nrf9160. That's why @bifravst now has a single CLI command, which flashes firmware and credentials: https://t.co/zUTVLFgazU
• @meikeco #Trondheim ! https://t.co/yKsVZqkNHB
• AOL Chat https://t.co/qfmQGBVLc7
• Brotbox. https://t.co/jCj0dj7aaY
• This is why end to end tests are important: I've noticed that an *unreleased development version* of our SDK could brick devices, because a configuration change was made, and this was not discovered because module tests do not consider how it's integrated.
• So I started to work on a test for @bifravst: https://t.co/kAYjiIJ9Zu This is a full end-to-end test that runs on real hardware which boots a device and actually performs a firmware update over the air once the device has connected. Doing that I discovered yet another issue:
• An underlying module's configuration was causing the download to fail, because there was not enough memory configured to store the longer hostname of the test environments firmware server. This took two additional days to figure out.
• Just because we suddenly have multiple firmware tests per day, compared to maybe one manual smoke test per month or so, we already were able to mitigate potentially catastrophic bugs. That's why I love #endtoendtesting, because it tests what really happens.
• @martinjuhasz The cool thing is that I use this approach now for embedded software; and it provides much value there as well.
• @martinjuhasz I am just starting with this effort, so it's one device for now. For now I didn't need to reset, so it's pretty stable. I expect customers to have more devices, my job for now just is proof of concept work. Power-cycling USB hubs exist, so this could be put somewhere remote.
• @wilgaard Toast!
• Go a nice question via DM, which is a great one for tomorrows @SoCraTes_UK: Which #TDD approach is better suited than others to have a positive impact on the quality of the software?
• "Sauerkraut" #Norwegen 🇳🇴 https://t.co/IEUxs2Qx9Z
• @AmelieCornelis I wonder what made you make a custom version: https://t.co/6yLmOLs0GK ... what did not work with https://t.co/JeIxxpinrU for you?
• Made the first purchase for my #pc2021: a 2TB M.2 SSD. Assembly will happen probably next year spring, but that deal was quite good ... especially since I am importing hardware to #Norway and Amazon handles this very conveniently.
• @AmelieCornelis Oh, the notion embed is cool! But for some reason the embed does not have the correct values.
• @AmelieCornelis Ah, the embed strips the entire content of the hash. I'll try a quick fix. https://t.co/Apw5mKk8sl
• @AmelieCornelis Tried it, that is not helping.
• @AmelieCornelis Fixed it: https://t.co/SPgiNpnmU3
• @5422m4n There is, but the prices are ridiculous (look at https://t.co/SNZK20DAOF and https://t.co/IecFSgMVe1 for a price comparison) and actually the selection is much smaller.
• During @SoCraTes_UK I discovered that @NotionHQ can easily embed #localschedule, so this is now possible as well: https://t.co/JeIxxpinrU ... i need to document that you can use `?schedule=...`. https://t.co/JeIxxpinrU https://t.co/qAe9h196LQ
• #localschedule now can also hide past sessions: https://t.co/JeIxxpinrU https://t.co/eCksBXtr3W
• Finished a great day of another virtual @SoCraTes_UK with a virtual game of pandemic! Thank you all for joining today! https://t.co/T2diQTfoBm
• @Morl99 Good idea! It should be rather straightforward to add more "Session" columns to the right (with same time slots).
• @Morl99 However I do wonder if in case for conferences with multiple tracks if it's not easier to have a generic "Slot 1" ... in session instead of multiple session titles. I foresee some usability issue with doing this responsive...
• @LukasRosenstock @Singsalad @SoCraTes_UK https://t.co/uuEN9qt85i
• In @bifravst we do promote using intermediate CA certificates to allow offline generation of certificates: https://t.co/y4eG8fEXQW - the same way we provision our DKs. Transmitting certificates over the internet should be avoided and can introduce issues during manufacturing. https://t.co/Z8LTf8IaV9
• I need to do more to make the online events I attend be less of a white space. Having removed a big financial barrier (online events are free or cost a fraction of what e.g. a @SoCraTes_Conf ticket costs), they haven't become more accessible to people that don't look like me.
• We can now easily accommodate people from different countries around the same time zone, but I see a lot of familiar faces or people who are connected to the community already. This makes me uncomfortable aware of the bubble I am in, and how hard it is to grow it.
• I wonder what would have more impact: attending other communities' events to build new connections (show up), or focus on inviting people I haven't met to an event they have not attended, yet (outreach)?
• @vertigoaddict Yes, but testing is not free, so which to test first?
• @timothep Turn them on!
• @kotzendekrabbe *hugs*
• $ create-react-app: npm start https://t.co/Ajkz69hvst
• @pati_gallardo Also Baby Yoda and Rittersporn.
• Thanks to https://t.co/Sa1qGScre5 the list of open-source meetup alternatives has received a big update: https://t.co/UCtRPNvSdL Full list here: https://t.co/ZA89utgzf7
• Hey, do you speak " ( ) " @aws https://t.co/lm8gvmDhV9
• My #nRF9160 powered #SmartVan control is taking shape: I have the DK now connected to AWS and measuring inside and outside temperature using BLE beacon thermometers (Blue Coin T). https://t.co/XnDtX2KR49 #iocampervans #iot #cellulariot https://t.co/SUj4P5E0vt
• @annevanrossum I have no idea! I am following examples from Zephyr, and it was turned off here: https://t.co/8oozdqhmBh ... so I kept that. Why should I not be disabled?
• @annevanrossum I guess it totally makes sense to enable it. The docs do not explain the advantages well, but this article does. https://t.co/FX65fRp3Cz
• https://t.co/JeIxxpinrU is free and easy to use. https://t.co/iL0EnwydQS
• This is our Sauerkraut. It's called Baby Yoda. https://t.co/0tREtWrJ1Y
• Today I switched @bifravst's device certificate format to ECC ... and it just worked: https://t.co/I9QalzPL2t TFW something goes suspiciously smooth. 🤔
• It's really amazing to see customers like Jared, who contribute back by writing a post in @NordicTweets blog: this is a truly fantastic feedback cycle! https://t.co/2WmjO0jZwg
• I heard my blog's images do not work in Safari ... Let's figure this out. https://t.co/NMk3pUud4H
• Cool move @IKEANorge! IKEA Signs Work Agreement for Immigrants in Norway https://t.co/ejrszTr88u via @lifeinnorway
• Safari does not like WebP: https://t.co/pSr2U5mNnS
• @jverhoelen @LobaroHH @institute_irnas @FerrousSystems maybe.
• @realn2s The problem were actually the pictures on the website, Safari did not display the ones in further down in the blog post.
• Second purchase for my #PC2021: DOOM Eternal Wolfenstein Fallout 4
• All software with text input should support multiple cursors.
• @realn2s Uh. That's bad. Can you give me your specs from https://t.co/uccKZScZ6A? https://t.co/N4dNBVV8cR reports no problems: https://t.co/MAcEo8oHGV
• @autiomaa Most companies who can't find what they are looking for often also believe that posting job vacancies is all they need to do.
• @realn2s Yeah, this is such an old browser, which cannot run the JS I ship on my blog. "SyntaxError: Unexpected token '...'. Expected a property name." Marketshare is under 1%. So not worth fixing it for a personal blog.
• @friemae I appreciate this feedback very much! Let me know what could be done better!
• Attending @FlowConFR from my couch! https://t.co/CiRYTnZz68
• What an awesome list of inspiring software testers: https://t.co/ERJFqQ3VRv
• What an awesome list of inspiring testers: https://t.co/ERJFqQ3VRv https://t.co/c3MsvUkA2u
• After having attended many great remote open spaces in the last months (and having a nice session with @AmelieCornelis and @dimitrypolivaev) I am going to organize the first company-wide open space. It's going to be interesting to run this only on our internal tools...
• I've started to look into AWS Timestream to replace Athena for @bifravst and oh is it great! It super simple to setup, no need to maintain a schema if adding new properties. Just create a Table send in data, then query using SQL. It's serverless and works just like that.
• Progress here: https://t.co/DFkWBTbRmF
• Did anyone do the lambda compute benchmark for Node.js recently? https://t.co/gU16cNydlc I am running my lambdas at 1792 MB RAM right now and am curious if this is still the sweetspot? @awsnordics
• Same. https://t.co/W1uGWLYHzv
• const foo: any = 'bar' https://t.co/tFgZOkmL1V
• This is a great example of why I like #BDD #e2e tests and how they support refactoring: the only thing that changed (while refactoring the entire data storage solution) was the query language part, the result, and tested scenarios stayed the same. https://t.co/Q5OtyKj0Uz
• @AmelieCornelis @dimitrypolivaev I plan to do it in the week before Christmas.
• When integers roll over: https://t.co/0aosOA0LEF
• Now that I have a smaller desk it became a little crammed, so I got three monitors arms for less than €100 shipped here and now have much more desk space again. https://t.co/052pEVOwEk
• Not much snow here in #Trondheim, but an amazing clear and cold (short) day. https://t.co/aNw84n6CDV
• @langestefan @home_assistant What do you have set up in your home that you really wouldn't want to miss anymore?
• @Markus306 @neoscms Check out my @codefreeze_fi pictures: https://t.co/YRMWDlQH1I https://t.co/hgJLd24JGa
• @leastpossible Yes, this is an adjustable standing desk from IKEA.
• #Norway be like 👻 https://t.co/jpv1s1dy1s
• This is exciting: @NordicTweets has acquired the the entire Wi-Fi development team, core Wi-Fi expertise, and Wi-Fi IP tech assets from @imaginationtech and that means we can hopefully offer LTE, BLE and WiFi in one solution one day: https://t.co/BgTWmcbP8C
• Well, the unit test was missing testing the ORDER of entries ... https://t.co/OdnxQkmVfU
• @langestefan No, the data is not sorted by timestamp, and the charting library does not manipulate the datasets and it plots it just as is.
• @theTorfinnOlsen @NordicTweets @ImaginationTech We have not announced any products, yet, but given that LTE and WiFi are on different frequencies it will most likely be able to be controlled individually, like with LTE and BLE. Typically it won't make much sense to have both LTE and WiFi at the same time anyway.
• @secwonk311 @theTorfinnOlsen @NordicTweets @ImaginationTech Yes, this is absolutely best practice. Use only what you really need, and when it is worth doing so.
• Solid advice! https://t.co/a2SQHHIIfw
