Decided I gotta write more in German again. 2 languages die every day on average, and while I don't think German is at risk just yet, I also believe there are things I can't express as well in English as in my mother tongue.
Even if, for the time being, most of it will happen in private.

I made it to the second round.
In the general process of applying places I also realized that the non-crypto companies are way more on top of not ghosting candidates.
Sure, so far I got a small sample size, but it does align with what I hear and read from others on the X feed ^^
I got my first interview with a non-crypto startup tmrw afternoon... wish me luck. It's the first time in probably 6 years that I am doing that process in German - which you'd think should be easy cause it's my mother tongue, but... for someone whose entire career has taken place 80% in English, it is still a bit daunt

I'm back on a Alain de Botton appreciation arc. I might be a romantic at heart, but I like to think a pragmatic one as I grew up with a healthy-ish role model (my parents) who have more recently started to be open with me about what it took to maintain this marriage for so long.

Trying to start writing a blog on a theme you're absolutely unexcited about, but you gotta pay bills.
Anyway, to make it more fun, I'm experimenting with using Ellipsus - it's nice to see small teams that are not Big Tech get into creating word editors that don't suck.

They were super nice, and I'm getting a proper week shadowing the master with all the aspects that make up the job in July.
That's something. In the meantime I can learn more about optics, and explore other fields of interest outside of crypto
As part of falling out of love with crypto and exploring learning a real job... since many audiologists are in-house with opticians, I figured, I might as well hit those up too :'D
And well.. eye sight matters quite a bit to me too considering how much I read language, and score so - I got a casual chat with one next
