OK, it was just Lenovo's Ubuntu installation. No issues using Fedora at my new employer. Phew.

I attended a 2-hour course on Rust by Lars Wirzenius @liw yesterday. Here is a post about it on my link-blog.

Feeling relaxed for the first time this month! I know it because I don’t care about anything 🙂 Setting up a company is not something I’m good at so it was pretty exhausting.

Unpopular opinions about rewriting applications:

* Rewriting is often worth it, if it includes adding a comprehensive test suite, including an acceptance test suite.

* If there is already a comprehensive test suite, a rewrite is usually OK.

Well this week was a rough one! I expected some difficulties for company ramp up so this is just part of the process. I think working the first week in Berlin on site is pretty good idea anyway and smooths out the road, and after that I get back on road with my life.

What got me interested in blockchains? It was food delivery services. I disgrace Finnish food delivery service Wolt and how they ”Cosa Nostra” restaurants and enslave the drivers. I hope they burn in hell. So i realized year ago that only known algorithm to take away the middleman is a blockchain. Not by burning cycles and destroying the planet but by having distributed book keeper based on stake. I compared the existing smart contracts and with my evaluation Polkadot has the right core arch.

So I did off-by-one with the week with my flights. I'm flying today Berlin and coming back next Friday to Finland. So week #1 on-site.

That means also that I get my contracts ready one week faster, and I can get back in sync with LKML one week faster too.

So... let's adapt to the situation :-) Now have to run to the airport.

Hmm... A gym at Berlin in the Kreuzberg area? I neither Zumba or anything physical jerks activity. Just weights and like one-time fee style [and there is a person to pay this too, you never know what to expect these days]

It's not an issue if there is some group exercise type of stuff but sometimes that will map having to queue and loosing motivation or the gear feels like shit. So with that condition that will work too.
