Strömavbrott … man kanske ska jobba lite, just ja, men redigera några fot… just ja, kolla på en fil… hmm, tupplur, Jäpp så får det bli

13:37 and the sun is setting

Ute och gick igår, kastade en snabb blick på skylten, vred på huvudet, hjärnan kickar in ”va i fridens namn”, tittar på skylten igen, ”ahhhh”

Ibland blir det så fel

It’s kind of pathetic/cute when a German Shepard is very much asleep, suddenly hear a noice, flies up and starts barking/howling … you can clearly hear that he has been sleeping and it’s mostly “Danger, I’m awake, I am fierce guard dog, no one can pass me … and I WAS NOT sleeping”

I’ve been thinking about voice recording, with or without AI, and I’m feeling uncomfortable with the whole concept. I can’t explain why, and it hasn’t happened yet, that someone is doing it in a meeting I’ve attended, but I’m definitely uncomfortable

So, my 6 week dog/cat/house-sitting adventure has started

I find it quite funny that me phone company wants me to enter my phone number because “we don’t know what it is” 🤷🏻‍♂️ I find it really strange since sending me SMS seem to work perfectly fine

Suddenly I remembered one of the funny mistakes I’ve made during my life.

A long time ago, we got one of these new fancy laserprinters at work, and of course I wanted to use it. So I printed a document and went to the printer to fetch it, where I noticed that it said “Redo” on the display.

So I went back to my office, printed the document again, went to printer and once again noticed the “Redo”. Back to office, a third attempt, same result … suddenly I noticed that there were several copies of my document laying ready to be fetched!!! What???

Slowly my brain started work, I’ve always used English on my computers and at time I was a using Unix a lot, also in English. Basically my whole computing environment was in English … but for some reason the people who set up the printer had decided to use localize the printer to Swedish.

When my brain had come that far, I could only slap my forehead - the “Redo” I’ve seen wasn’t a message in English telling me to redo everything. The message was in Swedish, telling me that the printer was ready for the next document (Swedish “redo” means “ready” in English)

“We value your privacy … please allow us to share your data with 12784321 vendors”

Woohoo, 10% av tentorna rättade bara 300 kvar …

The new version of Excel went in a direction I hadn’t anticipated

Not much but better than nothing

Current status

Just discovered a frightening statistic:

In the last 5 years I’ve sent about 11 emails every single day from my work accounts… that is about 20000 emails.

Sorry people, it was not planned, something must have gone wrong.

Started to mark an exam, opened the first answer, looked at the answer and thought “can I go home now … please”. I’m not even sure that the student attended the same lectures I did.

It hurts

You know it’s bad when you go to sleep in your office chair

På väg till jobbet … och de har tagit bort vägarbetsavstängningen som varit där de sista 6-7 månaderna. Glad stämning i bilen, så kommer vi till en svag sväng på vägen och … får se tre nya vägarbeten 😭

Jag kan bara citera Yoda ”too old for this shit I am”

Tenta gjord och förhoppningsvis inlagd i Inspera, får jag sluta jobba nu?
