La Rossa, Grossa, Dotta - Bologna / Part 1

Sun, 26 Oct 2025 00:00:00 +0000

I was in Bologna, a city of Rossa, Grossa and Dotta; “Red”, “Fat” and “Learned” (+ la turrita; “towered”), which is an easy-to-travel Italian beauty, fast to enter from the airport, easy to walk on the streets without using any public transport, and a relieving atmosphere to breathe in.

In Turkish : Motosiklet Sürmeye Dair Tecrübeler

Sun, 21 Sep 2025 00:00:00 +0000

Motor alırken sadece satış yapan bir yerden ziyade servisi güçlü bir bayi ile ilerlemek önemli. Ya da bakımları iyi bir serviste yaptırmak.
Koruyucu ekipmandan tasarruf olmaz, kendinizi garantiye alın. F/P odaklı, daha da çok maliyet odaklı ekipman önerilerim şu şekilde;
- korumalı mont ve pantolon için Riderdenim
- eldiven, ne kadar iyi olursa konfor o kadar iyi oluyor, bu sebeple bunu her zaman giyerim diyemiyorum, yıllar içinde bütçem el verdikçe daha kaliteli modellere çıkmaya başladım.
- yağmurluk; yağmurda motor sürecekseniz, Decathlon’dan ya da da başka bir yerden mont üstüne yağmurluk almak konforu çok arttıracaktır. Motorumda her zaman üst ve alt yağmurluğum bulunur.
- Yazlık eldiven kullanırken de yağmur yağabilir, bunun için eldivenin içine bir naylon eldiven giymekte fayda var, çantada eldiven bulundurulmalı.
- Ayakkabı: Bu konuda maalesef tembelim, kışın YDS taktik bot kullanıyorum, yazın güzel bir ayakkabı tercihim yok.
- Ayakkabının bağcığını muhakkak korumak lazım, ben bağcığın kelebek olarak kalan kısımlarını, diğer iplerin altına sıkıştırıyorum. Ayakkabının yanına atıldığında geri çıkabilir ama önden geçen iplerin altı çok güzel koruyor.
Sigorta ve zeyil: Sigorta ruhsattan önce gerekiyor, ancak tescilden sonra plakayı poliçeye işlemek yani zeyil yaptırmak gerekiyor. Kaza durumunda poliçenin aktif görünmesi için atlanmamalı.
Telefon tutucunun titreşimsizi de titriyor, otomobil gibi düşünmemek lazım, ya sesli navigasyon ya carplay ya da ucuz feda edilebilecek bir telefonu kullanmak gerek.
Disk kilidi candır. Kendinize alacağınız ekipmanlar var, motorunuza alacağınız ilk ekipman disk kilidi olmalı. Bir de hatırlatma ipi alırsanız motorunuza hasar verme ihtimalinizi ciddi şekilde düşürürsünüz. Hatırlatma ipi de kırmızı / turuncu gibi canlı renkler olmalı, motorun renginden farklı olmalı ama mavi vb. renkler olmamalı bence.
Grenaj kırılmaları ya da acil durumlar için şunlar bulundurulabilir;
- duct tape
- plastik kelepçe
- yara bandı vb. içeren minik ilkyardım gereçleri
- motorla birlikte gelen tornavida / alyan vb. aletler
Interkom bir keyif. Kaskın içinde kulaklık takamayanlardanım, bazı insanlar kaskın içinde kulaklıkla rahat ediyor ancak ben sağlıklı bulmuyorum bunu, kaza durumunda kulağa hasar verebilir gibi.
- Şu ana kadar Cardo kullandım, birini aradığım zaman kütüphaneden mi arıyorsun diyorlar bazen.
- Mikrofon süngeri kopmaya ya da yerinden çıkmaya başladığı zaman gürültü giderme özelliği azalıyor. Sünger uygun duruma getirilince sorun düzeliyor.
- F/P açısından Knmaster’ın interkomlarına da bakılabilir, deneme şansım olmadı.
Carplay yeni yeni denediğim bir ürün, bakalım memnun kalacak mıyım.
Şarjlı bir hava pompası bulunduruyorum topcase’de, bazı istasyonlarda hava basarken lastik içine su verebiliyor, bu da balans yapabilir. Şarjlı pompa haftada bir hava basıldığında bile kalibrasyonu uzun süre kolay bozulmadı bende. Bana yakın benzin ofislerinde 2-3 haftada bir pompanın bozulduğunu görüyorum. Bence güzel bir konfor.
Kaskı aynaya asarken çenesi yukarı bakacak şekilde asıyorum, köpük kısmına ayna değmesin ve daha az hasar versin diye.

Fastlane + Figma : How I Automatized Screenshots in Style?

Tue, 05 Aug 2025 00:00:00 +0000

When Swiper became available to more users, I found myself enjoying the process of observing different cultures and how they approach a product I’ve designed. Localization, however, is still both an art and an effort. Even with AI translations, subtle tone differences stand out to native speakers.

Inserting items to the holes causes barely slower play, but provides many accessible plays.

Kıymetli bir dostumun Beyrut’taki düğününe daveti en başta heyecan verici, diğer yandan da düşündürücüydü. Düğüne yaklaşan süreçte Lübnan’daki çatışmasızlık ortamının devamı ve uzun süredir yaşanmayan uçuş iptallerinden hareketle Beyrut’a gitme kararını aldık. İyi ki de gitmişiz, toplumsal konularla ilgili yıllarca anlatacağım pek çok örneğe tanık oldum. Beyrut’ta dikkatimi çeken maddeleri ve düşüncelerimi bu yazı ile toparlamak istedim.

Building a Star Trek Fan-Blog with Hugo and TinaCMS

I always had a wish to start a fan blog about the Star Trek series. Such as having difficulties remembering learnings from a book without taking notes about it; the Star Trek series is worth taking notes about. And I decided to post my thoughts publicly, which is the best way to blogging. It’s now live at https://captainslog.mesut.me. In my personal blog, https://mesut.me, I’m using Hugo static site builder with markdown files. And I decided to initiate my fan blog with Hugo too, by using the same theme and infra.

I’ve developed an understanding and approach to these trending words, and I started to see sub-trends and their results. These terms are often used without representing any real understanding and have become nonsensical PR words.

Our Software Development Fallacies - Embedded Development Stories #2

Wed, 10 Apr 2024 00:00:00 +0000

While developing something on top of a ready system, is it natural to be myopic to the solutions because of the layered developments? In the last months, I often think about fallacies preventing us, while developing an extreme project. Here’s the story of how we defined our own definitions of “fallacy of structure” and “fallacy of proof”.

It was an exciting period to discover and negotiate on new concepts, while roles has become intertwined. I even found myself performing XP (Extreme Programming) practices, pairing with a developer or writing code by switching roles. I observed situations which will suit with project management practices and software development.

During high school, I was a fan of Soylent-based feeding. It saved me time to focus on my projects and experiments. As long as I could financially afford to supply Soylent, I continued to feed in that way. So, as a person fed by Soylent for years, watching a dystopia about a Soylent-based community was an interesting intersection.

When Regulations salute Product Managers with "Hello Earthling!"

Mon, 18 Dec 2023 00:00:00 +0000

When Regulations salute Product Managers with “Hello Earthling!” I wanted to write a blog about my alternating view on how I welcome regulation in product management. It’s unsurprising to see Product Managers from diverse levels who typically avoid learning and commenting about regulation. I was always against putting lawyers to the front and receiving to-dos from them directly. Indeed, we should listen to the lawyers and find a common way to make things work.

⚠️ SPOILER ALERT

Battlestar Galactica(2004) might be the most breathtaking series I’ve ever watched. I often describe myself as a “Gene Roddenberry and Star Trek lover.” I really would like to and enjoy watching how humanity can achieve more and live peacefully in science fiction. (especially while bombs are raining in the Middle East nowadays) This perspective loads a mission to science-fiction productions in my preferences.
