Factotum. Divergent. Contemplator of things. Opposes the introversion of sacrifice. Space, Time, Information, Security, Music. Knowledge is a process. More boosts than toots. 🇳🇱 and 🇬🇧 and 🇩🇪
@veronica@explains.social I really get it and I agree with the sentiment. But consider:
You still deserve safety, even if you:
- don't wear a seatbelt
- are speeding through heavy traffic
- can't really drive
- don't have any other redeeming qualities
You may deserve it, but you're not going to have it. Like safety, privacy ultimately requires your vigilance.
That being said, we totally need much stricter privacy regulations and meaningful enforcement.

THIS is why you shouldn't use big email providers. They poison the ecosystem. Don't be complicit.
"...dat #Logius haar contract met #Solvinity mag verlengen..."
Je hoopt dan dat de dappere en verstandige mensen van Logius er alsnog van afzien. Dat het mag, wil niet zeggen dat het moet. Toch?
Die hoop is ongegrond. Logius wil zélf verlengen. Blijkbaar zijn ze niet in control over hun eigen diensten. Echt heel slecht.
En dit was dan alleen nog maar DigiD. Solvinity doet nog wel spannender dingen voor de overheid. Als het met DigiD al niet lukt, doet dat het ergste vrezen voor de rest.
Tonight, I spontaneously used the word "oligargons". If it didn't already exist, it now does. It better expresses the real nature of "oligarchs".
@Pepijn@mastodon.online Much of the expressive power lies in the pitch. Does music notation help? Perhaps https://musescore.com/user/39593079/scores/15582262 is a starting point.
"Bertelsen's number"
When doing primes, it's easy to make mistakes. My trusted copy of Hardy and Wright cites 50847478 as the value of π(10E9). There are tons of books and articles that have this number. It is wrong.
In a somewhat epic conjunction of misfortune, that erroneous number has been erroneously ascribed to Bertelsen. But the error first appeared in Meissel (1885) and has been copied over and over.
Really nice interview. Awesome guys. https://www.theguardian.com/music/2026/may/08/unmasking-angine-de-poitrine-rock-duo-quebec-khn-klek
Met stuurt het schip bewust door de steiger heen, vastbesloten dat het per se de *wal* moet zijn die het schip keert, en niks anders. https://www.telegraaf.nl/politiek/kabinet-verlengt-digid%E2%80%90contract-met-solvinity-ondanks-wens-kamer/148517777.html
Onze puber neuriet spontaan Cardiacs-songs (op dit moment: Arnald). Ik zeg... opvoeding geslaagd.
Why didn't I think of this? Life will be better now.
