You know those funny stories with dog poop and robo vacuums? They are not quite as funny irl. Giving up on today, 8.31am. 💩💩💩🪦🪦🪦

Win of the day: I managed to push myself to write the last parts of the blog series I started last fall. Shame of the day: I forgot about it for EIGHT MONTHS and I ended up writing SIX parts, not 3…. Picture from Oslo (EuroStar last week) to show how happy I am to be done! Testing.pejgan.se

The wait is finally over 🎉 The #Oredev2026 program is officially LIVE! From deep-dives into software architecture and pragmatic AI to engineering for delivery and much more 👉 Your ultimate 3 days in Malmö (Nov 4–6) are ready to map out. Grab a coffee ☕️ and explore 👀 oredev.org/program

I might be turning less AI-gloomy? Maybe this ”specification driven development”-innovation (*cough*) is when my 2004-isch REQB certification starts paying off?

Preparing for German Testing Days. 50% ”why do I keep doing this to myself”, 50% ”OMG I can’t believe I get to do this again YAAAAY”

Life with an orange cat: Always check the weird noice from the kitchen. Always. No. It can’t wait. It’s like having 3 kids who were born calm and then the 4 one is just constantly climbing curtains, eating dog poop and testing everything. And he’s heavy. And he prefers sleeping on my legs. 🐈😴💥

I am so incredibly tired of being this incredibly tired. And puberty was enough once, why the f do we have to do it again?!?!

I was SO FUCKING PRETTY and the menace one pushed a half full mug of coffee all over my dress, blazer, table, floor. I was looking SO DAMNED GOOD. Stupid morning. Stupid muscle pack of a cat. Stupid me for thinking he would not. Stupid everything.

Measuring how successful a weekend is by how long I stay in dressing gown would put this in A+ or even S rating.

I managed to figure out how to verify a certain flow today, while my testers were busy doing other important things. I was so proud of myself I had to instantly log off for the weekend while on that high note. (It was complicated. Don’t judge) Also: reverse casual friday in new jeans & cute blouse

Do not approve of orange menace (mine, not the USA-ian one) waking us up at 4.45 because he is bored. Might be slightly less patient with people today. 2/10 would not recommend.

Azir is wishing you all the comforts and naps you deserve.

Someone asked if we got snow. Well. This is what I haven’t managed to remove from the driveway. No idea where to put it 🤣

What a weird year. Anyway - Azir says hi. Nami, Ziggs and Stormy could not be bothered.

Benefit of forgetting a gift for way too long: they get an unexpected Christmas gift! Ho ho ho!

I would have KILLED for these pants when I was in 8-9th grade. Only the super cool kids who had been to fancy places like the states or Stockholm had pants this cool. So of course I had to buy them 🆒👖👶

I finally dragged my ass to the car dealership and test drove a zillion (five) models AND did at least a bit of negotiating. So if nothing weird is found when verifying my giant boat of a car I’ll be switching in a few weeks

I don’t see how anyone can hide behind the ”it’s not making her more money” or ”she’s just fighting for women” anymore. No. She is hurting people. She’s using that money to hurt people. Stop lying to yourself. I don’t care how much I loved those books. She is just pure hatred at this point.

A portion of every dollar spent on Harry Potter merchandise goes to anti-transgender campaigns.

We cleaned up pretty well. #Codelines

My office for the day!

Not my usual Monday morning attire but what does one do… :D

I was incredibly funny, gracious AND set boundaries in an email today. Will not take questions at this point in time, thank you. G’night.

Another of my 38 favourites. When you are caught up in the daily grind, it’s hard to see a way out of it. Reactive works fills whatever void you give it, reflective/proactive work often requires you to carve out time and habits. Writing MORE tests might help. Or just give you more reactive work.

Top 38 illustrations for my talk in Prague this week (yes, they are all my favourite one) Tests (automated in this case) have layers. Layers of depth, purpose. Which layers to use, the size and where on the onion you put them - that’s something YOU need to figure out. don’t blend them into soup

I had a few months of no speaking commitments but today kicks off three conferences in five weeks. Off to Prague! Woop woop! #TesenaFest #TooEarlyButAtLeastIHadCoffee

I AM SO EXCITED!!!!!

Why repeat the things you already created when you can create something new instead? My dear friend @pejgan.se will soon be giving our Musical-Keynote again - but with new content. I'm so looking forward to Stockholm and Bilbao!

I am watching people lift very heavy stuff. I’ve never felt more out of place and I seem to constantly be in someone’s way. I deserve a girlfriend 🏅after this

The relief when you find the right combo of painkillers for a particular pain is something I hope most people never have to experience. I hope you all get to live life mostly painfree and think <insert any over the counter pain med you like> works on everything

It’s… kind of rough gaming one-handed. But nothing could make me move my arm
