It has been more than two and a half years since the release of ChatGPT. The 30th November, 2022 marked the beginning of a new era. The start of AI. Nowadays, many professions and people in private lives, especially in the information technology sector, use it on a daily basis. And we do not even know where we are on the Gartner hype cycle or if AI will improve following Kurzweil’s “Law of Accelerating Returns”.

The trend is still rising, but at the same time I have noticed a slight but steady degradation of knowledge on a human basis because people delegate more and more creative work to AI. As a result, I have decided to write a little blog post, where I can share my thoughts, trying to discourage the overuse of Artificial Intelligence which would ruin our cognitive capabilities. And although I know that very little people read this, it does not stop me from trying. Otherwise, I might have missed my opportunity in helping humanities future.

Yes, this title is a small nod to the excellent Netflix series “Arcane”, but that’s not what this post is about.

Today, I want to share some thoughts about earworms, a term that originated in German (“Ohrwurm”) and was later adopted into English as a literal translation. The meaning behind this rather abstract term is catchy tunes—sticky music, as Wikipedia calls it. This phenomenon often occurs unpredictably, especially when our thoughts drift away from the present moment.

Some aspects of creating a blog are really easy, and some are extremely difficult!

Talk a little bit about how one can become better (not master by any means, nobody is perfect) in writing a blog post. These are just my thoughts after two awesome guys from the Astro Community (jdtjenkinsJacob and louisescherLou) decided to write blogs about how hard and easy it is to write blog posts.

Please read their posts first as this is the follow-up on both of them:

  1. “Why is writing blog posts so hard?” - Jacob Jenkins
  2. “Why Writing Blogs isn’t hard” - Louis Escher
  3. “Some aspects of creating a blog are really easy, and some are extremely difficult!” - Felix Schneider

After that you have successfully completed this awesome trilogy of blog posts about blog posts.

Creating a standout githubGitHub profile README isn’t just about adding a few badges — it’s about pushing technical boundaries. In this deep dive, I explore low-level SVG manipulation, HTML-to-SVG conversion, inline animations, and full automation with GitHub Actions to build what I believe is one of the most technically advanced GitHub READMEs. From a dynamic Bento Grid that updates every 5 minutes to embedding live SVGs without external requests, this project transformed my profile into a living, self-updating showcase of my work. Want to know how I did it? Let’s break it down. 🚀

This blog posts describes the process of setting up a KubernetesKubernetes cluster with k3sk3s and CiliumCilium.
