Discovery of the day: dental root canal retreatment is not covered by your statutory insurance, and costs up to 1K EUR at that. Complementary dental insurance is a must!

Siri is sinking deeper into its stupidity. When I ask it to remind me about something later, it now asks which Reminder list I want to add it to. I don’t care—just remind me! Otherwise, I’d just write the reminder myself.

MacOS is annoying sometimes... Like, seriously? Blocking a JSON file?

It sometimes feels that the only my purpose in life is serving cat food from a shelf to a plate😺

Using AI for exploring new things is awesome: opened Zed, started typing `alias brewup=` and it already puts "brew update && brew upgrade -g && brew cleanup"

Personal achievement of this year: wrote to the tax office (Finanzamt) and asked them to waive advance payments for the next year - and they accepted my request 🃏 Not like it’s something extraordinary, but still feels weird assuming it’s also all in German.

Trailing comma is the new “space vs tab”

Schliersee is beautiful…
