Interesting talk from Lasse Fredslund at #codegarden on what is on the roadmap for Umbraco 15 and beyond. Block-level variants providing personalisation opportunities, client credentials for the content delivery and management APIs, and investigations into providing search abstractions. Further on the back office will see a new Library section, home to reusable global blocks and global tags, as well as more granular permissions settings for editors. The changes Umbraco have made in the latest version with the backoffice is impressive and you can see how this is a launch pad to allow for future improvements. Great State

"Are you building that over and over and over again?" An artifact is the output derived from your build process. Sadly, artifacts are often built whenever they’re needed. A lot of the builds just build that which has been built before. Even though this could be about contributing to avoiding the environmental crisis, it is also justifiable to save and manage artifacts simply to save wait-states and bottlenecks in the software development process. Stop building things that haven’t changed and start reusing colleagues’ artifacts - use an artifact management system. --- This card is labeled #beginner in the #build area of the Continuous Delivery Metric Model. I know you have package managers in check for all you external open source dependencies. Of course you have 💪 But why aren't you using the same approach for your internal builds. ...or maybe you are?

Really interesting announcement today about the creation of Danish Large Language Models founded and backed by a number of great companies and institutions. The principle of independent, open, transparent and free models trained on Danish data in a construct where more companies can join is a great initiative. As the world has been taken by storm by the Generative AI capabilities, this can be enhanced by more specific and localised LLM's with their specific purposes. #AI #DanskSprogmodelKonsortiet #LLM #DanskErhverv

I've seen Alexander Slotte be able to do almost anything that needs doing. If I was in a position to hire right now I'd be fighting all of you for him. Do yourself a favor and hire him into a position where your company needs innovative energy and modern technical leadership. You will NOT be disappointed. I give him my strongest endorsement and suggest you contact him ASAP because talent like this is hard to come by. If you want details, DM me; I have plenty to share! #recommendation #dotnet #mvpbuzz #devops #leadership

Yesterday at Nordbygg, I had the honor of joining Anders Björling, Joakim Eriksson, Jonas Anund Vogel and Installatörsföretagen on stage for an engaging discussion about the crucial role of collaboration among all stakeholders in our ecosystem. Our focus was on unleashing the potential of structured building data to tackle environmental challenges, enhance energy efficiency, boost net operating income, and elevate property values. Our dialogue delved into the challenges and opportunities inherent in building data, spanning from data consolidation and data sharing to knowledge dissemination. We explored technical solutions, AI opportunities, security concerns, as well as financial and political incentives. I offered my insights on the obstacles we must overcome and emphasized how delivering #Open, #Flexible and #Independent solutions can address one of the industry's most pressing issues. This approach, I believe, is key to unlocking new opportunities for innovative solutions that benefit everyone involved. In consensus, we recognized structured, consolidated building data as a key for progress in our industry.

Did you know that Impact Mapping has been created in Sweden by some agency to stop the Swedish government from wasting money on failing IT projects? Impact Mapping is all about making an impact and changing behaviours. If you have never heard about Impact Mapping or if you would like to learn more about it, check out my discussion with Gojko Adzic, which was recorded for Pragmatic Talks at ACE! Conference. #impactmapping #pragmatictalks https://lnkd.in/dWsgghCR

Ophelia Zhang Dalsgaard and my boss Henrik Høegh on stage at #KCDDenmark talking about #DevX and #PlatformEngineering is a Venn diagram. 👏 There are overlaps. But actually it’s good old user experience (UX), they coined it PUX (Platform UX). The point is that there’s much more to DevX than what a platform can solve. Developers are not necessarily more productive if they are stuck in endless meetings, have redundant and meaningless processes, etc. Achieving flow for developers is for the whole organization to solve, because it’s just good and obvious business value!

I've been giving talks about tech since 2016. My first talk was about docker at @ebay in Aarhus (Den blå avis) together with Johan Abildskov. I think it was his first public talk as well (correct me if i'm wrong Johan) and i was super nervous. There were 16 people in the room ! It was a great experience. Since then I started to give talks at meetups and eventually at conferences. I've organized Docker birthday events, Cloud Native events and a small conference as well. And i love being able to give back to the community that gave me so much. A small hint if you want to give talks. Keep your slides simple. When you feel they are to simple, make them even simpler. Managing time is difficult on stage, so the more information the audience sees, the more they see you miss or skip. Take this picture of a mailbox. You can talk for 2 min or 15 min about coupling/decoupling in software from that one picture, and people will listen to you instead of reading text. Maybe add a headline "Let's talk about coupling". It's much easier to manage time from a slide like this, and to tell a good story. See you at Kubernetes Community Days (KCD) Denmark where Ophelia Zhang Dalsgaard and I will talk about Developer Experience ?

I made it, yay! 🎉🙌 🖇 I have successfully merged my branch with my case study from Mimbly into the main branch. ...For those of you who aren't coders, this means I have a new case study up in my portfolio at kajsatunius.se✨ After reading up on Git in cmd in the terminal and thanks to all your help here on my LinkedIn post, I now understand Git commands a little better. 🖥️💡 Merging a branch with main might not sound like much (but last time was a mess due to merge conflicts 😅 ), but my deeper understanding will result in fewer errors in the future. Soooo, THANK YOU 🙏 ----------------------------------------------------------------------- The case study is from my time as a UX designer at Mimbly and reflects my journey as I single-handedly lead the UX process. This included: ✅ Strategic/project planning in Jira ✅ Implementing a design system ✅ 8 internal interviews ✅ Research planning (goals, interview guide) ✅ Metrics setup/OKR and KPI (Matomo) ✅ 15 external interviews ✅ Mapping interview findings in FigJam ✅ Conducting a research workshop ✅ Creating wireframes ✅ Compiling an Excel report ✅ Prototype testing and analysis (metrics etc) ✅ Conducting accessibility tests Thanks to everyone at Mimbly for providing such an awesome learning space! Special thanks to Isabella Palmgren and Emil Vestman for giving me the chance to prove myself, and to Ash Malmsten for the invaluable developer insights. 💖👏 #UXDesign #CareerGrowth #Portfolio

PMs. Don’t talk to customers. By now you have read 100s of articles on the value of ”talking to customers” “go out of the building” “get real pain points” etc etc And you are now eager to get started. But don’t. Don’t talk to customers, if you have : - no sense of purpose - no idea what to ask them - no idea which customer to talk to - No strategy to act on that feedback Because you will frustrate them. And your sales teams. This is the kind of feedback you will expect from customers. ”I spoke to their product team, but have not heard back” “I discussed the key product gaps, but not sure when we will see” ” I have no idea on their product roadmap” Don’t talk to customers just because you read that in a blog. If you do plan to talk to customers, start with the intent. Are you seeking product feedback? Validating a new idea? Learn their use case? Once you have a sound strategy for your customer discovery process, then you can solicit customers. How do you start? I created a template you can copy to get started. In this Customer Interview template: - starting questions - which customers to solicit - format to capture the feedback - article link on how to action the information Template : https://bit.ly/4bcC0C8 --- If you are in a late stage or mature product team, I can help with a bespoke Voice of Customer coaching program for your product team. Please DM

Have you tried MVW pattern in your apps? Model - View - Whatever? Jonas Uekötter was recently featured on Sean Allen's Swift news for the month of April. In his twitter thread he points out that when choosing a pattern, the real issues often stem from overcomplicating things. This is a refreshing reminder for us all: - Keep it simple - Understand your goals - Use tools that suit your team Have you ever felt overwhelmed by the many ways to structure app development? What's your approach to choosing development frameworks and patterns? #MobileApp #Architecture #iOS #Swift #Apple #Google #MobileAppDevelopment #Flutter

Bluesky is a Twitter-alternative. It launched two years ago, and has already grown to an impressive 5.5 million registered users: with only ~10 developers building it. But how was it built? With Elin Nilsson we spent the last couple of weeks talking with Paul Frazee and Daniel Holmgren (two founding engineers at the startup) to get a sense of how this platform went from zero to where it is today. A few interesting notes: - The core of the protocol and app were built by 2-3 engineers over 9 months - Bluesky moved from AWS to on-prem for cost-saving and performance reasons - The team migrated from PostgreSQL to... SQLLite! For maintainability and performance reasons. And they are very happy with this move. Read the details in today's free deepdive: https://lnkd.in/ezqHQvND

"GenAI? Well, I know it's very effective and helpful, but right now I have a lot of work to do, so maybe next week...Hrmm. There's a deadline next week, but I will use it soon, very soon". While everyone knows that GenAI in the shape of Microsoft Copilot, ChatGPT, your company's GPT etc is very good for you in your daily work, it's often a struggle to get to use it as a routine. It's a bit like deciding to go to fitness. You know it's good for you and you like the results, but initially it's a hurdle and in some cases you cease to go, because it's hard to make it a habit and "find the time". Read the article in Finans where Casper Guldager and me are being interviewed on how you succesfully can get people in an organisation to go to "GenAI"-fitness, i.e. use GenAI daily and why measuring results is one of the keys that often are forgotten - although the CFO will ask one day.

Tax me when I'm rich, not when I'm trying. This is what this boils down to. Høyre gets it, some people in MDG and Venstre seem to get it. If the current govt's politics win, we risk losing our future. Hopefully AP and SP and SV will also realize that in the face of the inevitable green transition enabling risk-takers to scale a new economy is our best bet to keep our well functioning social democracy. This is not (just) a conservative issue. Finally some fresh thoughts and activity in our pale and stale fossil fuel-based state capitalist paradise. Bra skrevet Erna Solberg. And good job everyone highlighting the problem and putting the issue on the agenda. Looking forward to see the evolution of this discourse.

Yesterday, I received my first fine in four years of using Danish public transport (operated by DSB). This happened just as I began using DSB’s new mobile app check-in feature on the S-train(urban train). In two months of using this very convenient feature, I’ve already encountered two incidents of forgotten check-in —something that never happened with the traditional card scan system, which offers clear visual and audio cues at the station. With so much happening on our smartphones these days, it’s easy to overlook the check-in when boarding the train—a challenge I believe will affect more users as they adopt this feature. When we release new digital solutions, unanticipated challenges sometimes arise, and it’s crucial to respond with supportive adjustments. In this case, DSB could improve the user experience by implementing automatic check-in, or at least a reminder notification when boarding. Until then, a "forgetfulness quota" would provide users some grace as they adjust to this new process. I've reached out to DSB to suggest these changes and request a fine cancellation as an early adopter. Let’s see how they respond.💡 #Innovation #DigitalAdoption

I think I'm not as much of an entrepreneur today as I was before but my man, my partner, my love and number one is an entrepreneur. I still very much understand what it can do to the private life, the problem to disconnect from work and really enjoy one's vacation to the fullest. This is where I feel my responsibility, to make our holidays in Firenze unforgettable. Investing in our future together is what makes us happy 🖤🧡 #managercouple #worklifebalance #gayinvestors
