I went to the firefly party again and checked them out on a different path. Boys and girls, there were so many of them! Apparently, I took the wrong turn and the numbers dropped. Still several hundreds if not over a thousand, but I'm spoiled now.

On the way there I noticed an absolutely spectacular sunset. However, I didn't bring my camera. Should have peaked through the closed shutters before I left.

It turns out the disco music from the next town over wasn't only audible in the forest but is also free-to-air in my bed. :-( It's earplugs time.

Recently, when I am working on my website, this almost always means simplifying things. Today I worked on the project pages and started to build a sidebar and stuff. But the result is that I kept the existing navigation on the left, removed the background from it, shrunk the header of the posts, and that clean look imho works way better than any fancy sidebar.
I just installed surf by Flipboard. Going to play around a bit. So far it looks very nice, it becomes a bit slow after some scrolling, but beside that I really like it.

Thanks @bender! Yeah, so super cute. I couldn't pet them, though. Despite very curious, they were also very restless.

I persuaded my dad to check out the fireflies with me tonight. He only wanted to go for a short trip, so we came just across a couple hundred of them. Otherwise, the thousands mark would have been exceeded in no time. He was super glad I talked him into that. :-)

It was also my first time to see them over the meadows. Those numbers don't compare to the ones inside the forest, no question, but we probably saw 60 or so. Haven't come across them there before, I only heard and read about that.

Note to future-Lyse next year: Leaving at 21:45 seems like a good time. We left earlier and had to wait just a few more minutes for them to come out in masses.

Too bad it's impossible to share photos or videos. My camera isn't made for that at all, not even close.

Happy for you! Mamdani looks like he will be good for NYC.

@lyse it's so bad!!!
Hahaha, I'm sure there were well over one thousand fireflies today! Basically at all times I could watch at least 15 of them around me. At better spots where one could see a few meters into the forest, there were easily 30 individuals, probably more. One even landed on my small finger. I didn't feel anything at all, but my finger glowed. :-) Awwww! After a 20 meters ride it took off.

But it looks like I have to go already at 21:30 at sunset the next days. Today, I left the house at 22:00 and all the above happend in the first half. The second half of the walk was rather boring, maybe just around 70 glowworms in total. The extremely busy route yesterday was virtually dead this time I came around. They all have already gone to sleep, or something like that.

I also encountered two toads. I nearly stepped on the first one, but it luckily jumped to the side in time. No animals harmed.

@movq @kat It's awful, "just" 32°C here. When I rode my bike into town I came across some spots where the heat was stationary built up and really intense. The airflow felt like the sauna attendant poured water over the heated rocks and severely fanned the hot air with his towel.

@movq I also don't think that I'm a particularly good speaker. :-) The workshop model is a good idea, I like that.

Yeah, it's really good fun. I can highly recommend it. This is also a good way to train (new) developers to think like attackers, how to break in, destroy something or raise awareness of some classes of bugs. Then you can avoid them next time. It's surprising to me what vulnerabilities come up during this event every time. So, absolutely worth it, win, win.
@movq Oh, really!? You should come visit. :-)

As far as I know females are sitting in the shrubs and males fly around, but they're not all that quick. They are slowly moving glowing dots that you can easily follow with your eyes. The bigger problem might be that they turn off and then on again. So, one could count duplicates. However, there's typically a bit of distance between them (at least 30-50 cm I'd say, often more). Counting the same individual multiple times is not all that common (assuming that they don't speed up when turned off). My counting was also conservative I believe.

Ah, Die Maus also covered them a few days ago: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OVGD5QEvtoc At the end, there's a video were you can see the speeds a bit.
@movq Tada, cool! :-)

@lyse I can confidently say that I don’t remember ever having seen fireflys. (Nor Firefly).) 😳 I’m most surprised that you could count them. Naively, I would assume that these guys move around a lot and you’d lose track of them?

OH, FUCK ME DEAD! On the way home from today's walk I saw easily 800 fireflies! Yes, over eight hundred! That was absolutely amazing. First time this year and already this many. Crazy! They were just fricking everywhere in the entire forest. I counted to one hundred and then stopped. The darker it got, the more fireflies came out and glowed around. :-) There were spots where in under ten seconds I counted 20 glowworms. Super sick. Soooo beautiful. <3

Before I left I tried to call a mate to join me, who apparently wasn't home yet, though, didn't pick up. But in the very end I surprisingly met her in the forest and we were super happy to encounter all the fireflies. She also said that today was her first time this year to spot them. I'll definitely check them out in the next days, too.

Apart from all the glowworms, I also came across some goats, two deer (one of which only the ears showing out of the grass), according to the sounds I sadly must have scared up four more, bucketloads of tadpoles, four big and very active anthills next to each other and three bats to finish the stroll off. I call that extremely successful.

> They're all talks, not real hands-on trainings like you did.

I love listening to good, well-structured talks. Problem is, not everybody is a good speaker and many screw it up. 🥴 I’m certainly not a great speaker, which is why I gravitate more towards “workshops”, in the hopes that people ask questions and discussions arise. Doesn’t always work out. 🤣 At the very least, I almost always have some other person connect to the projector/beamer/screenshare and then they do the stuff – this avoids me being *wwwwaaaaaaaaayyyy* too fast.

We are usually drowned in stress and tight deadlines, hence events like today are super rare … We used to do it more often until ~10 years ago.

> Once a year the security guys organize a really great hacking event, though.

Oh dear, I’d love to participate in that. 🤯 That sounds like a lot of fun. (Why don’t we do this?!)~

@movq *Interesting* internal education sessions are way too infrequent here as well. There are a bunch of "knowledge transfer" meetings actually, but 90% of the topics already sound totally boring to me. The other 9% talks turned out to be underwhelming, sadly. I only attended a single one where it was delivered what has been promised. They're all talks, not real hands-on trainings like you did.

Once a year the security guys organize a really great hacking event, though. Teams can volunteer to hand in their software dev instances and all workmates are invited to hack them and report security vulnerabilities. That's a lot of fun, but also gets frustrating towards the end when you don't make any progress. :-) There's also some actual hands-on training in advance for preparation of the two days. Unfortunately, I missed the last event due to my own project being very stressful at the time.

When I had a Do What You Want Day I also show my direct teammates what I learned in the hopes of this being interesting to them as well. I'm the only one in my team using this opportunity, sadly.
