Weeknotes 2022-05-02
,Worked on lots of small things:
- Released kptncook 0.0.6 fixing a confusingly named command.
- Answered some emails sent to hallo@python-podcast.de. Usually we don't get that much email, but last week we had multiple mails to be answered at the same time for the first time running the podcast. Dunno if this is good or bad :).
- Found a bug in jupyterlab where rename file is ignored if the target name already exists.
- Worked a little bit on making the podlove plugin / wordpress deployable on my infrastructure which is more difficult than expected.

Podcasts
- Folge 116 - Events, Event Sourcing und CQRS (Software Architektur im Stream)
- Episode 52: Immortality (Hotel Bar Sessions) | Good episode. There was a cool argument from Charles against afterlife: You have to assume there's no hope of changing anything in this life to be able to believe that creating a perfect virtual one makes things better. Also applies to video games or role playing, imho. If the yield on doing actual things is low maybe buying real estate on the moon or NFT or something like this seems like a good idea. But you have to be pretty desperate to buy into that.
