In that other place I also mentioned how many minutes it took until all tickets were gone (or blocked by the reservation process). You're crazy.

[Andreas Kunz @aku_dev]

I wrote something important at a better place: https://t.co/mOmqboXOB3

It involves #UI5con tickets becoming available today, so better read it to grab one! ;-)

😱😱😱 Only few days left to register a session proposal for #UI5con 2024!

Deadline is Monday 26th, end of day. European time, but there was enough time to not do it in the very last hour, right? ;-)

Do yourself a favor and make your UI5 knowledge&learnings&experience heard!

When I was just pointed to this tweet, I noticed the link is broken now.

When I was young, I thought the soda can bridge in the #Netscape offices was pretty cool (https://t.co/wXygENbaDp). Now there is a U.S.S. Enterprise bridge at my #SAP office building. Not bad either... 😀

Let's try it like this... :-)

@mianbsp Unfortunately, yes. But I'm not in need of views or likes, so I don't care. If people want to interact - do it there. If not - fine with me.

@JasonSpaceTime Not reading such content is one thing. Supporting a platform which promotes this content is a different thing. And by creating content, even little amounts, everyone of us is keeping this platform alive and helping it making money.

I'm rarely on Twitter/X now, haven't seen my start page or trends in months.
I have now and what they serve me (80% block-worthy nationalism) makes me shiver: is this what they show to average people whose tweets don't indicate any specific political views?

Please... (1/2)

@wridgeu Good question, not sure. All have their drawbacks from low engagement to sucking up our data.

Two are mentioned in my profile here, plus in Threads I'm "aku_develops" and on LinkedIn (https://t.co/LZCjHRPFNz) I've not been active so far.

Then again, I'm not sure I'm even worth

@wridgeu following - I don't write much. :-)

By the way, if someone needs an invite code for the sky: I have a few.

@dfenersky Once again the adaption showed that mainly three things are needed for a nice theme:
1.) a background image
2.) a theme color (or two)
3.) particularly nice buttons

One can do without changing all the rest and still get a nice result. Of course designers would object. :-)

[Andreas Kunz @aku_dev]

@dfenersky "Can the app look a bit more like the new UI5con web page?" they asked... ;-)

Had still the dark flavor of sap_belize as base, now switched to light sap_horizon.

[Andreas Kunz @aku_dev]

@dfenersky event, there is a lot more, like a drag&drop agenda planner, the page for community voting, the event configuration etc. I once started separating speaker and management side, but didn't finish.

(sorry for ugly screenshot visuals, it's in the middle of a theme change)

[Andreas Kunz @aku_dev]

@dfenersky Could be optimized further, I guess, but after all it has only a couple dozen users who use it once or twice to enter their proposal, so the benefit is limited.

E.g. number of libs could be reduced. But what you see as speaker is only the tip of the iceberg. For us managing the

@dfenersky Author here. Ummm... the puppeteer thing is probably on your side. I don't see it. Do you use it for testing?

The "xx" is temporary disabling of the async bootstrap which I think turned out to be tricky in interplay with event initialization.

[Andreas Kunz @aku_dev]

@wridgeu It's even in their list of "common mistakes" (https://t.co/4pAmHjURW4):

"If a type parameter does not appear in the types of any parameters, you don't really have a generic function, you just have a disguised type assertion. Prefer to use a real type assertion"

[Andreas Kunz @aku_dev]

@wridgeu Indeed this has been requested several times. The answer is that 1. it's not really shorter, so what's the benefit? And 2. the creators of TypeScript have rejected similar requests as a mis-use of generics and type assertion/cast in disguise.
