You’re never wrong to do the right thing.

— Mark Twain

So my turn to do the write thing…

Being (sort of) a developer by day (and sometimes night…) it seems most logical to me to start by writing the f****** manual !

So here it goes.

Naming things

There are only two hard things in Computer Science: cache invalidation and naming things.

— Phil Karlton

Fortunately, apart from this particular quote, we won’t be covering cache invalidation, or any other tech-related subjects for that matter. Hence we’ve got more liberty in our naming.

Because I love the occasional oxy-moron, I was actually gonna go for “Deep Breadth”, but there are quicker minds out there…

Topics (un)covered

I’ll basically be sharing my thoughts on a few “lifestyle” subjects:

• my discovery and addiction to deep breathing techniques
• a lasting love/hate relationship with cold showers
• learning about (my) multiple sclerosis
• dealing with Covid-19 as a parent / family
• picking up running, when you can’t keep it up (but why?)
• maybe a bit of yoga and/or stretching on top
• and a dash on work-life (un)balance to spice things up

There might be other things we’ll pick up along the way, but that’s the gist of it for now.

Sett(l)ing the tone

Personal subjects with a personal twist. I’ll try to keep the tone as it is here: somewhere between readability and just raw thoughts.

I might get a bit poetic or freestyle at times, but generally should fall back to dizzyllusion.

I naturally tend to over-use ellipsis and/or parentheses, so I’ll try to keep that in check. (But I guess we’ll see how it goes…)

Partial background check

I used to do all sorts of sports. Not so much these last few years.

I’ve got 3 kids. Now, there might be “some” correlation there…

But it’s also more generally that I grew older and things that used to be easy (and fun) just get a bit more frustrating nowadays.

That, and the fact that I tend to deep dive on stuff. Work being (the) one of those stuff !

Anyway, sports used to be my main focus. At least that’s what my master’s degree in sports science would say (not that it’s any useful to me these days…)

It just no longer is. At all.

So here’s to gently getting back into that. Towards a healthier lifestyle and whatnot.
