This week the sweet setup published an interview with me. If you ever wanted to know what apps I am using and why, feel free to read this article.

It’s time again for my list of talks that I loved on the chaos communication congress. As usual I spent most time on RubyTown and watched the talks later on.

When lanyrd was bought by Eventbrite in 2013 I had high hopes that the platform would continue to thrive. It was just a too good fit to be worried about it.

I love going to conferences. Learning interesting new stuff, getting to talk to lots of awesome new people. For a person like me this is amazing. Sadly there is one part of the experience that I often find troublesome. The website. Which is strange. This is one of the most important communication tools for the conference. And still most forget important details. In this post I want to list things that are important to me. Maybe you find it useful. Please comment if I forgot something.

In the last couple of weeks I saw lots of discussions about working long hours and pulling all nighters. For example an interview from Marissa Mayer. Sadly most articles glorified working long hours.

This week I gave another talk at the Rug::B. This time about InfluxDB.
