Wintertime has always struck me as somewhat offset from the holiday season. The weather gets cold and dark, but snow seems to be in its primetime around January and February, at least here in Oslo. As a result, people around the world may have to resort to simply dreaming of a white Christmas. But regardless of where you live and the level of crystalline precipitation thereabouts, we have the technology to make it snow right now! In your browser at least.​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​​‍​‌‍​​‌​‍​​‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​‍​​​​‍‌​‍‌‌‍‌‌​‍‌​‌​‍‌​‌​​‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌​​‍‌​‍​​‌‌​​‌​​‍​‍‌‌‍​‌‌‍‌​​​‌​‌‍​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‌​​‍​​​‌​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌‍​​‌‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​​‍​‌‍​​‌​‍​​‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​‍​​​​‍‌​‍‌‌‍‌‌​‍‌​‌​‍‌​‌​​‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌​​‍‌​‍​​‌‌​​‌​​‍​‍‌‌‍​‌‌‍‌​​​‌​‌‍​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‌​​‍​​​‌​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍​‍‌‌

So you have a Kubernetes-cluster and a bunch of applications. You trigger deploys by manually pushing templated yaml to your cluster. The codebase is large and the manual processes time-consuming and error-prone. You need a better way.

Stadig flere retter fokus mot klimaendringene, og vi som forbrukere og privatpersoner ytrer et ønske om å bli mer bærekraftige. Samtidig observerer vi et gap mellom holdninger (hva folk ønsker å gjøre), og adferd (hva vi faktisk gjør).​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‍‌‍‌‍​‌‌‍​‌​​‍​​​​​‌‍‌​​‍‌‌‍‌‍​‍​​​‌​​‌​‍‌​‌​​‍‌​‍​‌‍‌‍​‍‌​‍​​​‍​​‍‌‍‌‍​‍‌‌‍‌​​​‌‍​‍​‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‌‍‌‍​‌‍‌​​‌‍‌‍‌‌​‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌‍​​‌‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‍‌‍‌‍​‌‌‍​‌​​‍​​​​​‌‍‌​​‍‌‌‍‌‍​‍​​​‌​​‌​‍‌​‌​​‍‌​‍​‌‍‌‍​‍‌​‍​​​‍​​‍‌‍‌‍​‍‌‌‍‌​​​‌‍​‍​‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‌‍‌‍​‌‍‌​​‌‍‌‍‌‌​‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍​‍‌‌

Kotlin introduces a lot of new language features for us developers. Those features allows us to create code that is type-safe, easy to write and easy to reason about. A good example of this are the type-safe builders a.k.a DSLs, and in this article we're taking a look at how we can create our own DSLs.​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌​‌‍​‌‍​​‍​‍​​‌‌‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​​‍‌​‍‌‌‍​‌‌‍​‌​‌​​‍‌​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍‌‍​‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍‌​‍‌‌‍‌‍​‌​‌​​​​‌​​‍‌​‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​‍​‌​‌‌​‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌‍​​‌‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌​‌‍​‌‍​​‍​‍​​‌‌‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​​‍‌​‍‌‌‍​‌‌‍​‌​‌​​‍‌​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​‍​‍‌​‍​‌‍‌‍​‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍‌​‍‌‌‍‌‍​‌​‌​​​​‌​​‍‌​‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​‍​‌​‌‌​‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍​‍‌‌

One of the great advantages of Elm is its strong runtime guarantees, and one important technique it uses to achieve this is using data types such as Maybe and Result to handle errors, instead of having values like null or undefined in the language. These structures are very nice to work with, but if you don't know the tools at your disposal, they can be tricky.​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‍​‌‌​​​​‍‌​‌‌​‌​‌‍​‍‌‍​‍​‍‌​‌​​‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​‌​‍‌​‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​​‌‌​‍‌​‌‌‌‍​​​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌‌​‌​​​​​​​​‍​​​​‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌‍​​‌‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‍​‌‌​​​​‍‌​‌‌​‌​‌‍​‍‌‍​‍​‍‌​‌​​‌‍‌‍‌‌‌‍​‌​‍‌​‍‌‌‍‌​​‌​​‌‌​‍‌​‌‌‌‍​​​‌‌‍‌​​‌​‌‌‌‍‌‌​‌​​​​​​​​‍​​​​‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍​‍‌‌

As designers we are used to working on new domains, problems, and design challenges, and we are left with interesting reflections and insights about them. In an attempt to share some of these insights, I have written this article about the design challenges and solutions of designing for an online auction.

What is the state of your IoT (Internet of Things)-security in your home? Do you have any gadgets on your network that are vulnerable to exploitation? Maybe you have any devices you do not recognize? If you own an IoT-device then you should be curious about how it talks to the Internet and how security is taken care of.​​​​‌‍​‍​‍‌‍‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‌‍‍‌‌‍‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‍​‍​‍​‍​​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌‍​‍​‍​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‍​‍​‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‌​‌‍‍‌‌‌​​‍‌‍‌‌‍‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌​‍‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌‌‍‌‍​​‍‌‍‌‍​​‍‌‍​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌‌​‍‌‌‍​​‍‌​‍‌​​‍​‍‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​‍‌​‍‌​​‍‌‍‌‌​​‍​‍‌​‌​​​​‌‍‌‌​‌​‍‌‌‍‌‍​​‌‍‌‌​​‌​‍​​​​​‌‌​‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‌​‌‍‌‌‌‌‌‌‌​‍‌‍​​‌‌‍‍​‌‌​‌‌​‌​​‌​​‍‌‌​​‌​​‌​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍​‍‌‌​​‍‌​‌‍‌‍​‍‌‍‌‌‌‍‍‌‍‍​‍‌‌‍​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‍‌‌‍‌​‍‌‌​‌‍​‌‌‍‍‌‍‍‌‌‌​‌‍‌​‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‌‌‌​‍‌‍​‌‍‌‌‌‍​​‍‍‌‍​‌‌​​‌​​​‍‌‍‌‍‍‌‌‍‌​​‌‌‍‌‍​​‍‌‍‌‍​​‍‌‍​‌​‌​​‌‌‌‍‌‌​‍‌‌‍​​‍‌​‍‌​​‍​‍‌​‌​​‌‌​​​​​‍‌​‍‌​​‍‌‍‌‌​​‍​‍‌​‌​​​​‌‍‌‌​‌​‍‌‌‍‌‍​​‌‍‌‌​​‌​‍​​​​​‌‌​‍‌‍‌‌​‌‍‌‌​​‌‍‌‌​‌‌​​‌‍‌​‌‌​​‍‌‍‌​​‌‍​‌‌‌​‌‍‍​​‌‌‍‌​‌‍‌‌‌​‌‍​‌​‍‌‍‍‌‌​​‌‌​‌‍‍‌‌‍‌‍‍​‍​‍‌‌
