current interests
- Create things: I’m re-engineering a software from 2018 from scratch. My 3D printer runs nearly every day. I plan videos, I record stuff. I create. And it feels incredible. Absolutely hyped about upcoming content.
- Old, new hobbies: I started skateboarding again after a long pause. I try to go bouldering once a week. I started playing chess again. Feels good to be so active.
- A rewarding job: At the beginning of this year, I was promoted to Senior Software Engineer. My job is full of variety, and I learn so much every day. Looking forward to when I can share more about it.
- Speaking of rewards: I was awarded with the 18th KIT Doctoral Award for Outstanding Doctoral Researchers, which is awarded annually to only 3 of the approximately 600 dissertations submitted at KIT.
open questions
- More time: How to be efficient, but without all that time management lifestyle guru crap you find online? How to actually make the most out of your time in a sustainable way?
- About AI: My last video about AI was quite critical. Using it daily now, both professionally and for my private projects, I changed my mind. Still beeing critcal, though ;)
