<p>Hey there! It’s me again.</p>
|
|
|
<p>It has been some time since I wrote a new article in here so I thought I’d state an update on me. In my <a href="https://n0x.io/posts/helloworld/" title="first post">first post</a> I talked a little about me. By now some time went by and some things have changed - not that I wrote much about me to begin with.</p>

<p>I’m now 23 years old and just started my 4th semester at university after deciding that I wanted to study something computer science related. After finishing my apprenticeship in 2018 I worked as a software developer for little over a year. In August 2019 I started my dual study in Software Technology (B.Sc.). A dual study is a studying model here in Germany that lets you go to university full time during the semester, but you are still hired and paid by a company. Between semesters you have no real semester break as you go to work full time at your partnering company. This is to collect as much real-life experience as possible during the study. During these phases or working - could translate as “practical phases” - you work on a project at your company for what you need to write a documentation. This documentation in return will be evaluated by the University and credit points awarded accordingly. Oh and all classes are mandatory and you can only choose some of them. The classes at university are quite small with about 25 people max. This means the whole feeling of university is more closely to that of going to school here in Germany - for better or worse. But it means you actually have a face in university and that networking between students and professors and other lecturers is quite easy.</p>
|
|
|
<p>As you can see the whole dual study thing is a very interwoven mesh between theory - in form of what is thought at University - and practice - in form of a company you work for. I think the concept is quite neat even if it means you don’t have the “luxurious life” or a regular university student. Free time is rare but well worth the effort and I can only recommend this model to anyone who wants to educate themselves while getting some hands-on-experiance!</p>

<p>Ah Linux. My love. My hated enemy. I feel like the relationship with a lot of people towards Linux is a sort of love-hate-relationship. There are times where I spend hours digging through config files, compiling, changing and tinkering just to get the smallest, tiniest change done. But damn does it feel good once you take control of things and understand how things work and interact with each other. Truly rewarding and so many things to learn!
|

In the beginning of 2021 I decided to finally cut my ties with windoot and fully switch to Linux. I had been running Linux on my servers and laptop for some time now and had played around with all the fun Linux things. My current config is build on DWM and Arch Linux and I’ve been enjoying it greatly. I switched to Linux on my desktop system as well after noticing that I barely played any games on it anymore. And to my surprise that went fairly well and I haven’t felt the need to go back to Windows ever since. I’m still using it at work but not much I can do about that. Gaming works fairly well on Linux and I even got games like Battle Field 4 to run - with anticheat! I don’t think it’s something I can recommend to a heavy gamer but for simple browsing and such Linux seems to come along nicely - and for professionals around the computer science field even more ;)</p>

<p>Combining both of the above topics is my current place of work. I’ve developed quite the interest in tinkering with Linux and tweaking it and it translates surprisingly well to my daily work - if I’m not at university of course. I’m now responsible for creating and maintaining firmware build on the popular embedded systems Linux Yocto. I’m also tasked with some security aspects regarding development at work buuuut of course I’m not spilling anything of that on here. The symbiosis of my hobbies and my work is fascinating. I can basically deploy the skills I learned athome at my workplace and in return learn new stuff there to use at home. A non-vicious vicious circle if you want. And that makes me really love my workplace and the work I do even if I’m just a student.
|
|
|
And while I’m rambling on here I have to say that it’s a little sad to see how many people are not happy at their workplace or the work they do. I can only recommend to every single person out there to go and try to find a job they like. It’s such a valuable thing to have in life - or maybe that’s just my inner German coming through. But oh well.</p>
