I'm a freelance engineer, focusing on helping teams to create great products, by running their product development effort well.
I'm keenly interested in product quality, and have broad experience in product definition, development and QA.
I'm a big proponent of DevOps, and have successfully applied it to less obvious fields such as embedded software.
My speciality is in embedded systems / IoT; I have a MEng in mechanical engineering.
I offer development process consulting, engineering support, and training on a variety of subjects.

I'd love to, but IME it's unstable with more than a handful of participants and doesn't offer stuff I need, such as breakout rooms. Unfortunately, Jitsi isn't a viable solution at this point except for 1 on 1.
SEEKING WORK | Germany or remote | DevOps strategy and (as a hobby) implememtation I'm a senior DevOps person. My mission is to enable teams to work together better, faster, more enjoyably. I firmly believe that…
> ECC is not officially supported on Ryzen. If it works on your particular board/BIOS, great, but it's not officially validated or tested The Asus Pro X570 ACE (or similar name) explicitly offers ECC support though, not…
Breakout rooms, for instance? Better video quality? Dual-screen mode? Or simply the superior video and audio quality compared to Meet. I wish I could move away from Zoom, but I've yet to find something similarly useable…
Let me point out: to me, auto-updating isn't even the crucial issue (I use unattended-upgrades as well, so whatever). Yes, functionality and workflows around installation and updates are still insufficient for many use…
Chromium silently moved to a snap package some weeks ago. Annoying but harmless: it's start time has multiplied. Workflow-breaking: Chromium now can't see my NFS mounts anymore. It's not just about having a pretty home…

Heh, interesting, didn't know that. I was just trying to pick a random example.

This is a remarkably clueless article. It's clearly written by someone not familiar with the demands of embedded systems. Also, Pis have a not-so-stellar track record as far as reliability, which is why I wouldn't want…
So they do :-D It's getting long in the tooth by Google standards I suppose. Who knows when they'll axe it. I think it's strictly 1:1 (which, I gather, Facetime isn't?). It has good video quality, but what I like most…
> Facetime has the best audio/video quality of any conferencing software I've used by a mile. Out of curiosity: can you compare it to Google Duo? Because it has the best quality and stability of any 1:1 product I've…
Last I tried it, it didn't work on Firefox, and was somewhat unstable. Too bad, really. Loom seemed nice.

ISTR my Dell USB-C dock can do that (but check for yourself, I might misremember). No idea how well it works with Macs though.
> Except recouping the CO2-expenditure of the concrete piston will take a long time. When the idea was described to me it was proposed to carve the piston out of sheer rock (obviously requiring fitting geology).
I don't think I subvocalise, I read way faster than I can speak. There's certainly ideas flowing through my mind as I read, but not sounds. It feels like a mixture between words, thoughts and emotions, not a stream of…
Anecdata: I have an Asus ACE mainboard and use ECC RAM with it. Works as advertised.
> You can opt out of recaptcha by just boycotting the website which uses it. Ah, I was waiting for somebody to make this argument, which I find somewhat disingenuous given how widespread reCaptcha's use is. With sites I…
