Jochen's .plan

This page, also known as a "Now Page" tells you what's keeping me occupied.

Making

Put the finishing touches to the new ACL feature of our managed hosting platform
Launch the next cohort of my instructor-led course "Basic Linux System Administration"

Reading

For myself: "The Hero of Ages" by Brandon Sanderson
With my son: "Dragonlance: Dragons of Autumn Twilight" by Margaret Weis and Tracy Hickman

I finished "The Soul of a New Machine" by Tracy Kidder. How the engineering team at Data General willed the Eagle computer into existence was an interesting read. But it was also a stressful read for me because watching this whole project constantly teeter on the edge of failure despite all the blood, sweat and tears getting invested into it hit just too close to home with my own business experience.

Watching

On my own: "Silo"
With my kids: "Kobra Kai"

I finished "Resident Alien", which leaves my watch list kind of empty. I'm not sure if I'll stick with "Silo", and am open for recommendations.

Exploring

Coding in Ada
Dokploy and Komodo (application deployment platforms)
