Oliver hat früh begonnen, mit Computern kreatives Potential auszuloten und war schon immer irgendwo in der Schnittmenge zwischen visueller Gestaltung und technologischer Entwicklung unterwegs. Nach der Lehre ist er als Quereinsteiger und Autodidakt in die Werbeindustrie gegangen und hat sich später auf digitale Inhalte konzentriert, wo er sich von Beginn an mit fundamentalen Fragen zu Usability und User Interface Design auseinandergesetzt hat. Das Lösen technischer wie visueller Probleme fasziniert ihn gleichermassen.

Bei Tegonal fühlt er sich wohl weil er sowohl kreativ wie auch technisch gefordert wird und er das Klima und den Zusammenhalt einer überschaubaren und menschlichen Firma mag. In seiner Freizeit wandert er gerne durch den Wald, reist durch Südostasien und spielt mit Technologie - oder verliert sich in Games.

Oliver started exploring creative potential with computers early on and has always been somewhere in the intersection between visual design and technological development. After his apprenticeship, he went into the advertising industry as a career changer and self-taught designer and later focused on digital content, where he dealt with fundamental usability and user interface design issues from the beginning. Solving technical as well as visual problems fascinates him equally.

He feels comfortable at Tegonal because he is challenged both creatively and technically and he likes the climate and the cohesion of a manageable and human company. In his free time, he likes to hike through the forest, travel through Southeast Asia and play with technology - or get lost in games.

A quick Lasius update

Ein kurzes Lasius Update

We have added new features to Lasius today. In summary:

The Tag Manager has finally been added. You can now add and edit tags and tag groups for each project by clicking on the tag icon in the context menu next to a project item (you need to be a project administrator to use this functionality).

The granularity with which time is recorded using the start/stop functionality has been increased to minutes instead of seconds. Seconds are no longer visible in the UI, and it was not possible to edit seconds before this change. This should calm things down visually and, if we're being honest, we shouldn't get caught up in counting seconds.

Gaps and overlaps in and between bookings are now immediately visible. Gaps can easily be filled with a new booking or by editing an adjacent booking.

Where applicable, you can select a default date/time when adding or updating a booking based on its siblings. This is useful for quickly setting the start of a booking to the end of the previous booking. Or change the start time of the currently recording booking to the latest booking on your timeline.

Because time was previously recorded to the millisecond, some of your existing transactions may erroneously report overlaps. You can choose to ignore these as they are usually in the < 1 minute range. Or you can edit a booking and select the suggested end or start time of one of its neighbours. Changing the granularity will not affect existing bookings, your reports are safe.

We will continue to improve Lasius in the future!

Lasius has been updated to 1.0.3. Read more about the changes in this short update article.
