March 2016

Starbucks saved the morning.

Den Haag. Where the breakfast places open at 9am...

@MattBolton365
@Starbucks Yeah, that helped ...

OF all around the globe! https://twitter.com/RH_Way/status/704574812673449984

@airbone42 well, the web color schemes are
ugly. Just pick a color you like. If going into print go to print shop and find
a pantone fan.

@airbone42 use that to pick the matching print
color. HKS also has color fans.

@airbone42 if you want to learn about the
theory, this is the german reference book:
http://www.amazon.de/Kompendium-Mediengestaltung-Digital-Printmedien-X-media-press/dp/3540242589

@airbone42 yes, you have to live with it.
Crappy desktop screens are the norm. Mobile phone displays are over-saturating
colors.

Is there a WhatsApp-Slack-Bridge yet?

Does anyone own a physical copy of UNBOSS in english? http://amzn.to/1WT2snq

@mortzu defacto Standard für Business-Kunden
heutzutage ;-)

I think this year I have something cool to show
@t4at_conference because
@RH_Way has great tools that help organizations to
become agile.

@Ookami86 @RH_Way We'll I'm happy to. We can have
a coffee at our place or @zentrale_ffm
anytime.

@haraball Thanks, I haven found that via Amazon
UK …

@haraball 10 € shipping.

@haraball but ordered nevertheless. I got an
overview on the dutch version and it looks really comprehensive and hands on.

Are there SmartBoards that convert unreadable handwriting? I could use those
now.

Every prototype makes it into production.

@mortzu why don't you offer this under
@hostedinspace?

Ads in the Netherlands. #wtf

@dc7590 count me in, I'll be there when
@kamilleblumm arrives anyway.

First workshop part of @RH_Way done. Now on the
way back to my keyboard. But it's great to work with customers IRL!
https://twitter.com/RH_Way/status/704708852227379200

I'll be talking at #sbc16 http://startupcamp.berlin in April on the HR focus
camp on Saturday. See you there!
@berlinstartups_

Time for a snack.

Slack IMHO has great notification customization options. Like with any other
tool, learn them!
https://medium.com/better-people/slack-i-m-breaking-up-with-you-54600ace03ea

@FranziskaNaja congstar nehmen?

@FranziskaNaja Viel unterwegs? Telekom-Netz
ist halt echt super. Es gibt dort noch SpeedOn für Extra Volumen:
https://www.congstar.de/hilfe-service/speedon/

@FranziskaNaja das ist echt viel … also
eigentlich nicht wirklich; aber in DE ist es echt frech, was man dafür zahlen
muss.

@calibanatspace
@FranziskaNaja nope. Max Update auf 1GB und
dann SpeedOn ...

@calibanatspace
@FranziskaNaja Ich hab ja ein Handy mit
zwei SIM-Karten-Slots.😎

Voice ans videochat, better pricing for bigger teams, better integration of
externals next in Slack: http://tcrn.ch/21ANQjp via @techcrunch

Meet http://www.correctbook.nl/ … a socially responsible and reusable
notebook. Parts of their proceeds are donated to fight illiteracy!

Happy to learn that @ElisaCrockyard found the only real coworking space in this
city after trying several others:
@zentrale_ffm. Welcome!

.@awscloud lambda support in eu-central-1 would
be ace!

http://www.sandwichcouncil.us/ celebrates sandwiches & those who make them

@frontend_rm

Woha. Fuckups are growing exponentially! #rheinmainrocks
https://twitter.com/MarinaZet/status/705461403281448962

@wltrd I think you could have spared the image
format intro. That's 101 for frontend devs.

@frontend_rm no. Will ein Ticket.

@wltrd I liked the rest of your talk, though. Very
good overview of current techniques.

Now @renekriest about AngularJS2 vs DOM hacking.
@frontend_rm

Summary: if you do frontend with >3 ppl use Angular.

@bommeljogi Klar. in der Regel sind Frauen die

@fdeberle this was not due to a recent event,
but of course this has happened before. I use it for deploy scripts to
production.

A #hackathon I fully support: work with #OpenData to fix your city! Tonight till

Session 0: Orga-Meetup #ahcfra16 #ahc16

Ready to go. #ahcfra16

All you need to know about #ahcfra16

Not my color ... ;-) #ahcfra16

Off we go! #ahcfra16

Intro session at #ahcfra16. Left corner was the #startup corner.

My #ahcfra16 hashtags: #startups #futureofwork #softwarecraftsmanship At
@RH_Way I help organizations to turn into
entrepreneurial networks.

@coding_nerd I hope you are having fun over
there, too.

.@itagile is here and talks about Democracy or
not. #ahcfra16

Forced in a high volume interview session. Not my thing. And doesn't answer the

Arrived at #hackffm @zentrale_ffm All busy
and the food looks awesome.

#HackFrankfurt #hackffm projects:

DistrictFinder is first: find the best neighborhood to move to. #hackfrankfurt
#hackffm

@khgdrn Ja, haben wir gehört! Passte aber zum
Sponsor …

#HackFrankfurt Team 1 presenting a tableau app which enables you to analyse open
data.

No suprises when visualizing #opendata. But the ability to do so offers many new
insights of combined and is easy to explore. #hackfrankfurt

Segregation in Frankfurt is the next team #hackfrankfurt

This is his map:

They have forked the https://github.com/PhillyOpen apps and adapted for
#Frankfurt. #HackFrankfurt
/status/706493455749521408

Team 4 is trying to answer the influence of airbnb on the housing situation in
#Frankfurt. #HackFrankfurt

Team #4 ran into @AirBnb injecting false data while they were scraping them.
#HackFrankfurt

.@mattsches Obviously, @AirBnb doesn't want to
be analyzed because they are making profits off misuse of private property.

Team #5 built an directory of the 120,000 trees in Frankfurt. Which already
exists at: https://geoportal.frankfurt.de/karten/baumkataster.html …
#HackFrankfurt

Team #5: going solo with trees.

Team 6 built Tinder for neighborhoods in Frankfurt: generate new data quickly
based on open data. #hackfrankfurt

Met so many people @DB_Skydeck at #ahcfra16
interested in the @RH_Way … looking forward to all
the follow-ups @zentrale_ffm …

@taeube @Roritharr
@dc7590 Ich versteh die Frage nicht …

@taeube There is a perfectly valid use case in
software projects: planning is hard. Add the well know limit of talent. There is
your market.

My team today was like: "If we save on technology, we're saving on the wrong
end." <3

and sense of communal ownership …"

Ansible gets you DevOps even if you don't have it in your org. BOFH won't object

http://techcrunch.com/2016/03/10/uk-surveillance-powers-bill-could-force-startups-to-bake-in-backdoors/
UK wants all communication services (e.g. Social Networks) to have a government
access to all user data by default.

@rradczewski 1 day in seconds. Because often
you need check if a date is within a specific day.

@c089
@rradczewski Yes, if you do important stuff
with dates, you simply just don't add seconds. You use a library for modifying
dates.

@wmfra @dolatel einen von meinen Tipps auf

Yes, keep sending them my way ;-) I'm not available but the least I can do is to
intro more people to @zentrale_ffm

@shochdoerfer yes, but most of them are
looking for a freemium pricing model. Which I don't want to offer. I'm too
sceptic for that.

@shochdoerfer It's a rather small project.

@c089 what will you choose?

@c089 Thanks!

@ryanwi yes, I thought about that, too. Testing

@Roritharr Honest about what?

@pfhllnts … Streik und Change sind zwei
verschiedene paar Schuhe.

@Roritharr yes, it's hard to know what really has happened from just two
paragraphs. But that he did it, is powerful.

In leaderless organizations CEOs can only influence their organization by
putting certain topics in the spotlight. (1/2)

Their power stems from the number of followers they can convince to pay
attention to what they are saying. (2/2) #futureofwork
