Let’s contribute! Hacktoberfest 2022

It’s October and so Hacktoberfest has started again, a month in which everyone is encouraged to contribute to an open source project on GitHub. Repository owners/maintainers let you know if they’re participating, what you can work on during this month and after 4 approved contributions, you can get a sponsored t-shirt from the event or plant a tree. Of course I will participate again this year, but you can also help with one of my projects!

My cookingplate died 🍳

Hello guys! It’s a while ago but I finally found time to finish my blog 🙂 Induction cookingplate Recently my induction cookingplate passed away 🙁 Quite strange when you are cooking shawarma and you suddenly smell a little mechanically scorched smell. Well that happened to me and then suddenly half of my induction cookingplate stopped working! A few weeks later, it completely stopped. I lived on microwave meals from my mother for about a month, but after that it was really time for a new hob. During the black friday deals, I purchased a sharply priced new hob from the…
