Ausländer Punkt des Sicht: Life In Germany – The German Language

This is part 1 of 4 in my series on Ausländer Pov Life in Germany, where I express my thoughts on the different aspects of living in Germany for seven years that may help newcomers or just be a fun read for anyone who has gone through a similar journey as I have. I [ ]

iPhone 17 pro vs iPhone 13 mini, and on smartphones in general

Buying a new phone used to be a festival in my life. My “first“ phone was the mighty original Samsung Galaxy Note. I did use a phone before that, but that was just my dad’s spare phone, and not very exciting or smart. Getting the Note meant going straight from a feature phone to the [ ]

Turning 30, new year 2026 and 7 years in Berlin

Happy new year, folks! This is a slightly all-over-the-place article covering very different and unfiltered brain dumps. Few reasons for that: I remember when I turned 27. I was transitioning from my old job to a new job, old flat to a new flat and just in general many life changes. What I do remember [ ]

Summary of my 20s

I turned 30 about a month ago. Weeks before I turned 30, I had already started to internally retrospect my soon-to-be-past decade. What went well, what could be improved of I were to do it again. A decade isn’t the same as a two week sprint they typically have in software teams. Life isn’t the [ ]

Parasocial relationships

Recently, a friend send me some videos on political commentary by a couple of Indian youtubers. They were from youtubers I was already subscribed to, but hadn t watched too many of their videos lately. I did remember watching a lot more of their content a year ago. I was obsessed with their commentary on the [ ]

How long is a week? Or, the myth of the 4000 week life

We know that, of course. A week is 7 days, 168-something hours. That s understood. That s scientific. That s accurate. That matches reality measured through machines that speak in 0s and 1s. Insurance companies like it, and so do our employers and the government. It is simple and uniform across time and space. But that s not what [ ]

ChatGPT predicts my future – 50th Birthday Journal Entry

A month or so ago, I posted an article title Journal Entry – 4th of October, 2035. It was intended to be a casual essay intended to serve as my hopes for my future, from where I m standing. I m positive that my blog will exist in 2035, and I like to be intentional about dropping [ ]

Journal Entry – 4th of October, 2035

It is 5am and I m writing this from the McDonalds at Terminal 1, Frantkfurt Airport. Sleep deprivation might deteriorate the writing quality. If you don t notice any difference, what does that say about my writing? Today is 4th of October, 2035. Yesterday, I hosted a little birthday party with some friends with home cooked food [ ]
