For data analysis, I sometimes use python in combination with pandas. In this post I’ll take a look at some of the performance aspects of pandas and alternatives. Pandas makes it easy to read data using read_csv

I’m one of those weird people that still runs a “Linux router”. This means I have a PCEngines APU2 board and use a Draytek 130 modem. The reason I do this is because I like the control it gives me, and I can run things like dnsdist, powerdns in combination with DHCP. It gives me nice hostnames, so I can access my webcam via nice URL’s. I also run this blog on the machine, as well as my nextcloud instance.

With the release of K2 4.6.11 a new wizard has been added to the k2 blackpearl software. It’s the For Each wizard, which might surprise you. How can a workflow engine like K2 not have a For Each option? It’s quite simple once you understand how the K2 workflow engine works.
Activities and line rules determine the flow of the process. Questions like ‘Does your workflow have branch and merge options?
Update: Although the below worked in the past, it’s not ideal.
I’ve recently discovered https://caldavsynchronizer.org/ which is an active project and works very well!
As some of you might know, i’m quite fond of my privacy. Together with the fact that i still run my own server at home, this resulted in me investing some time on OwnCloud. I use it to sync my contacts and some files that I use for work.
