Funeral wedding

Take a good look there… Do you know what that means? Yes, I finally received the long-awaited new axes! The supplier is two weeks late, and suddenly me too because I had directly sent you the deadline he had announced to me − I was stupid. Good. Now the axles are there, that's the main thing. That was the good news. Suffice to say, the sequel is less funny. Where it gets stuck I rushed a little too much…

The new nest

The new nest

Babies are born in cabbages. Startups are born in garages. Good. Me, to my great disappointment, I never had a garage. Suddenly, this great “weather” adventure started in my bedroom: then it continued in mum's kitchen: I took a short social break at Co-Work (this is where the company was born): and finally, I worked all last year in my "cave" in Lumbin: So far, that...

When bearings get involved

When bearings get involved

“What will happen if, once I have delivered all my products, we notice that there is a big bug? This is THE killer question. I think every entrepreneur has to deal with it one day – presumably even Volkswagen. Mr. "bac plus zero" was convinced that he could produce a product without fail, on his own, the first time. Fortunately, the reality of life was there to remind him that we are not...

On the way to series 2

As you can imagine… When there is no news on this blog, it means that the agenda is very full. We can sum it up with some nice graphs: One constant thing is the number of hours available in a single day. One thing that grows exponentially is the number of tasks that absolutely must be completed quickly. Everything is urgent: finishing the website, taking care of the mobile applications, preparing the second series of...

The Coupe Icare is over! So thank you to everyone who came to see us. I had worked well to prepare the pretty stand: But suddenly, I still haven't had time to finalize the new site. So I'll get back to it this week. It's progressing, but it's work. To speed up all this, I will hire a developer (nodejs / html5). It will save me time to focus on the essentials.

The adventure goes on

The adventure goes on

There had been no news on this blog since the end of August.. Suffice to say, it's been an eternity! The storm is over. So here I am back. It's over First good news: 99% of the Pioupious are delivered!!! The map will therefore continue to thicken in the days to come. Following that, I put the remaining Pioupious up for sale. But it didn't last long. It only took 24 hours for my stock to be…

Like a bitter AROMA

Like a bitter AROMA

I recently switched Météo-Parapente to the AROME forecast from Météo-France. It was both an urgent economic necessity, but also – and above all – an improvement. At least, that's what I believe. (I'm not talking about the temporary disappearance of certain data (precipitation, thermals, wind at altitude). That's temporary. It's just that this information requires a little more work, and that for the moment I'm pumped.) But since I switched to AROME, I hear...

Grown-ups love numbers. They count them and recount them. In general, it ends up in miles of Excel spreadsheets, or on Powerpoint presentations with soporific effects. So, I too have “metrics” to monitor the progress of the project. On my dashboard, we count in “height of piles of boxes”: Before: Now: Conclusion: I have practically sent all the Pioupious. If I'm doing well, I should finish the...

Les Pioupious pioupioutent

First there were the mountains of Pioupious: Then, then, the mountains of boxes... And this Friday evening, there were 250 Pioupiou sent out of the 400. It's very symbolic, because I sent all the Pioupious who were "ready to go". If your Pioupiou has not yet been sent, it means that you fit one of the following boxes (with a few exceptions): You have not confirmed the delivery address You have indicated that you are on vacation Your Pioupiou needs …

Do not panic

Do not panic

My inbox is overwhelmed with messages like "when will mine be sent?" ". Do not panic !!! If yours hasn't left yet, it will be in the next few days.
