Yesterday was one of the greatest day in my life. Together with over 800 children and @fsfe guests we had the German premiere of the movie "Ada &

- A Tale of Software, Skateboards, and Raspberry Ice Cream". Thank you so much to all who made this possible (see the credits).

The different sources for the movie are listed: https://ada.fsfe.org/movie
A first selection of pictures from the premiere: https://pics.fsfe.org/gallery/5Tcc_rbuFkkT5FWB9xd3jSAK

Enjoyed reading (in German) "Software development: Don't learn to program! - Learning to program is not enough. If you want to develop software, you need to be able to do three things above all: listen, abstract and model." https://www.heise.de/blog/Softwareentwicklung-Lern-bloss-nicht-programmieren-10493709.html

(In Q&As I always argue it is important to learn programming like writing. You do not have to become a author or a journalist, but you can use the skills in everyday life, solve some problems, and have a better understanding of society.)
