I’ve been thinking about getting a height adjustable table for my home office for months, possibly even years, but never got around doing it because of either price or just not being motivated enough to do it. I recently noticed that IKEA sells an electric frame for my IKEA Galant table that doesn’t cost a [...]

By Max in Switzerland (Danish), Work at JBossHow to Geek-Pimp your Christmas Party
By Max in Work at JBossLisbeth and I normally try to throw a Danish Christmas party every year and this time was no exception; and I even got to have some fun geek-pimping the event.

Dial numbers (incl. conference bridges) with Skype via Launch Bar, Quick Silver or others
By Max in Work at JBossI’ve been pretty happy with my previous Service Apple script to dial a specific conference call bridge, but as I started having to use more it got too annoying to add a script per specific numbers. Now I’ve updated the script to be able to use directly from LaunchBar (or other launchers) as the dial [...]
Calling conference bridge numbers with Skype
By Max in Work at JBossI like Skype, but one of the features it has always lacked is a way to directly call into conference call bridges.

Hibernate in Denmark
By Max in Work at JBossFinally! – I get to do a Hibernate Advanced training in my motherland in December. Will be good fun to explain some of the complexities of ORM in Danish, haven’t really done that the last 2 years. Still as it normally goes people come from all over Europe to these trainings, so I’ll probably have [...]
