Ideas
Many people have ideas. Ideas are not special. What makes and breaks an idea is its realization and/or implementation. Here are some of my product ideas. Implement them, if you like them! Then send me an email to show them to me, please. 😁
→Strategies from the Happiness Lab
I love listening to podcasts while I am out running. The latest one I found is The Happiness Lab from and with Dr. Laurie Santos, a professor teaching at Yale. She looks at happiness scientifically and takes an active approach: You have it in your own hands to improve your happiness. The podcast discusses various strategies with various scientists and experts from their respective field.
This is a collection of these strategies you can employ; with the link to the corresponding episode for more information.
→The Collection
During my time on the Internet, I encountered many things. This post is a collection of the cool things. I will probably update it once in a while. Since I am living in Germany, some of the tips may not be useful for everyone. In order of coolness.
→Install Mailtrain on Uberspace 7
This tutorial explains how to install Mailtrain on a Uberspace 7. Mailtrain is a self-hosted open-source (released under the GPL v3.0.) newsletter app built on top of Nodemailer.

From this field, there was a question about the Pumping Lemma on the computer science subreddit. So naturally, if someone ask about a thing I know about, I’ll try to explain it as best as I can – repetition is key for retaining knowledge!
→iPad Gestures
I did it! I bought an iPad and an Apple Pencil for christmas last year. I write a lot for my university classes and I didn’t like that I often had to cross out things on paper (because I wrote something down wrong) and had to write them again. I was not sure, if an iPad is the right device for me – but turns out it is. It is awesome. If you make a mistake, you erase it and write it again. Wrong sequence of your sentences? Just move them around. The notes come out awesome.
Additionally I learned a few gestures that are really useful:
→Die Rechnung
Die Rechnung ist eines der wesentlichsten Dokumente des Geschäftsverkehrs. Da sie ein formales Dokument ist, müssen einige Regeln eingehalten werden, damit eine Rechnung gültig ist und der Kunde bezahlen muss.
