xkcd is right that we use passwords which are hard to remember, but easy to crack with computers.

I could use some online services Continue Reading
Looking up my project’s changes
Trying to find changes since the release in specific files (.sql and .properties files): git diff –name-only release/x.x.x.x develop | grep -P “\.(sql|properties)” Which lists all the files (just the name, not the content) which changed between the two versions provided, then filters it if it either contains .sql or .properties.

Removing annoying Cisco Jabber thingy
Cisco Jabber 11.7 on Windows 10. It has a small, somewhat hidden grey bar at the top of my screen, that shows some buttons and a search field if I put the mouse over it. I didn’t know the name of it, and it’s a bit hard to find a solution for removing it without Continue Reading
