July 20, 1969. “Contact light, engine stop.” The Apollo 11 lunar module Eagle touched down at Tranquility Base on the Moon.
A few hours later, Neil Armstrong and I stepped foot on the Moon, with Michael Collins orbiting close-by.
An achievement resulting from years of incalculable effort, commitment, and team work.
We all did our part to see President Kennedy’s words become reality: “We choose to go to the Moon in this decade and do the other things, not because they are easy, but because they are hard; because that goal will serve to organize and measure the best of our energies and skills, because that challenge is one that we are willing to accept, one we are unwilling to postpone, and one we intend to win, and the others too.”
I couldn’t be prouder to have completed this mission with the hundreds of thousands of people that helped get us to the moon and back home. God bless the USA and all of humankind.
Whoa! The IAU named an asteroid after me! 🥹
“The International Astronomical Union officially announced that asteroid (21943) 1999 VG114 has been named "Diannacowern" in your honor!” 9km wide, baby!
I didn’t even have this on my bucket list! But I feel super cool now. Cuz I’m a nerd…
Wir sind der Mob, der rülpsend und polternd jeden Tag eine neue Sau durchs Dorf jagt. Im Bundestag, Herr @_FriedrichMerz, brauchen wir keine Abgeordneten, die ihre Mistgabeln und Fackeln mit zur Arbeit bringen und damit den Faschisten Feuer geben.

Diesen Comic habe ich vor ein paar Jahren für die Aktion "Für Vielfalt!" der Stadt Erlangen gemacht und ich finde, den kann man nicht oft genug posten! :-)
Wenn Unternehmen jetzt einen unbezahlten ersten Krankheitstag vorschlagen - dann ist bestimmt sichergestellt, das alle Überstunden im Gegenzug ab der ersten Minute vergütet werden, korrekt?
@allenholub Take a dev and make them dedicate half their time to using the product with the customer as they use it.
And allow them to spend the other half of their time fixing the product.
I have only had a few jobs were I was able to make this happen and the results were awesome.

Gönnt euch richtig!
@unclebobmartin Many teams I worked on tried to implement scrum to the letter and failed. Scrum is not a process, it’s a tool in your tool box, and you need to pick many tools and adapt them to build a process that works for your team.
@dialogdogg@swr3 Meinungsfreiheit heißt, das man seine Meinung sagen darf, nicht, dass jeder ihr unwidersprochen zustimmen muss. Verstehen nur viele der "man darf nichts mehr sagen"-Fraktion nicht.
Knowing in general terms the sorts of things that you can do with a programming language matters enormously, how code is structured & organised, what makes good code good, and bad code bad, seems deeper than a single language to me though.
