FLOSS not sustainable for companies?

Posted on 2011-10-25 by Oliver

A few weeks ago I reported about ksplice whose Git repository had disappeared. Now the same happened for Likewise Open which was bought by BeyondTrust. After renaming the repository and moving its location from git://git.likewiseopen.org/likewise-open.git to git://git.likewiseopen.org/bt-identity-open.git it now also … Continue reading →

“Signs that you are a bad programmer”

Posted on 2011-10-22 by Oliver

Posted on 2011-10-19 by Oliver

Don’t know whether I will have a scale available the next few days, so one day early. Now don’t call me a cheater! At least not with this one – for computer games okay, but not here 😉 PS: Monday … Continue reading →

Teeren und federn …

Posted on 2011-10-11 by Oliver

… fiel mir gestern zum Thema Verantwortliche bei der Deutschen Bahn und bei der Stadt (zum Thema Kreisverkehr) ein, als ich zehn lange Minuten Zeit hatte darüber zu sinnieren, da die Bahnschranken am Kreisverkehr beim Wasserturm gleich zweimal unten waren … Continue reading →

Die neue Höflichkeitsform?

Posted on 2011-10-10 by Oliver

Nicht nur in der Schwimmhalle und bei der Deutschen Bahn ist mir seit meiner Ankunft hier in Deutschland etwas … nunja … seltsames aufgefallen. “Will er” … “hat er” … neuerdings wird statt mich zu Siezen die dritte Person Singular … Continue reading →

Today I ran an informal 5K, just to see whether I can cope. I could. Of course this was with intervals, so it was 4 minutes run, then 1 minute walk, but nevertheless. Took me 43:56.51 for 5.07 km at … Continue reading →

Gauweiler hat recht

Posted on 2011-10-08 by Oliver

Mathias beschwerte amüsiert sich über die martialische Sprachregelung in der Berichterstattung um den CSU-Parteitag herum. Ich persönlich empfand die Wortwahl als durchaus angemessen, auch wenn die Wichtigkeit der CSU hier medial etwas aufgeblasen wurde. Der Aufhänger war ja ganz offensichtlich … Continue reading →

Bitte nicht

Posted on 2011-10-08 by Oliver

In der LR von gestern wurde darüber spekuliert wer denn wohl den Friedensnobelpreis bekommen würde. Unter anderem wurde dann “Altkanzler” Kohl genannt. Bitte nicht! Obwohl, wenn ich es mir recht überlege, passen würde er mittlerweile ja schon. Nach Figuren wie … Continue reading →

-0.9 (= -28.0)

Posted on 2011-10-06 by Oliver

No idea whether it shows that I have slowed down successfully or whether that’s standard deviation. If you look at the old numbers so far, it could very well be deviation. Either way, the plan right now is to lose … Continue reading →
