Hi there,
I am HoverBaum, well that is what I call myself on the web. In real life I am Hendrik, nice to meet you!
This site is me ranting on about everything and anything I find interesting.
Watch out for potentially cool stuff to come.
I am a JavaScript Enthusiast and developer for the fun of it!
Here I write about webdev, technology, personal thoughts and anything I finds interesting.
One important topic for myself is language.
You will soon notice that my blog will be mostly English and sometime German. At least that is what I think will happen.
But how come?
Well a lot of times I think in English. Sometime because I am reading in English and think about it, sometimes because it helps to see a bigger picture if you think in "not your native language" and sometime just because I feel like it. Adding unto that some content of this blog will be a different version of something I release on English speaking forums or generally tutorials about tech related things. For these topics I find English to be more appropriate, as it finds a bigger audience and other related documents are usually English.
Der gesunde menschenverstand wird nie zu begeistern vermögen, wie eine radikale Idee dies tut.
...aber das ist nur die Meinung eines Baums.
Some reflections on what 2022 showed us about the future.
Generative AI describes AI that takes a prompt and generates something from it. Prime examples include Copilot which takes code or comments as a prompt to complete the code I want to write, ChatGPT which takes a chat message and replies with a human-like answer and Stable-Diffusion (or Dall-E, or Midjourney) which takes a prompt and returns a fitting image. All of these AIs made massive progress in 2022!
