Open Office Hours (Daylight Saving Time): Tuesdays, 18:30 CEST (That’s 1 Hour Late)

Starting Tuesday, 2025-04-01, 18:30 CEST (in your timezone), I’ll be hosting an AMA Open Office Hour one hour later than usual.

Except 2025-04-08 (next week), we’ll be hosting our mobile meetup and I won’t be available. So I’ll be there this week on 2025-04-01, then there’ll be 1 week off, then we’ll resume the weekly recurring times starting 2025-04-15.

Why +1 hour?

My daughter is less than a year old. We don’t see a point in forcing her to adjust her sleep schedule by 1h to the same time on the clock, just because DST kicks in. 5:30pm was late during winter; 6:30pm is just as late in her day during summer.

Also, it’s our first summer together, and we don’t yet know whether she’ll be waking up earlier and wants to go to bed later as the days get longer anyway.

So we’ll stick to the sun in the sky and the sun in our lives and pretend DST never happened.

What the Open Office Hour is About

Use the time to get in touch, ask questions about apps or programming projects, discuss your own code, or talk about Zettelkasten or Emacs or sketching or woodworking.

Since starting this experiment in January, I managed to show up on a weekly basis. So you can probably plan ahead to chat.

Join on Jitsi on Tuesday.
