Seems like the perfect time to change the default search engine on your phone and laptop. I’m currently using Ecosia (laptop) and DuckDuckGo (phone), but I think the future could be www.qwant.com

De jaarlijkse copaganda is vroeg dit jaar. Wederom dat de media gretig het frame overneemt dat een agent voor ‘klootzak’ uitschelden als ie je arm bijna breekt precies hetzelfde is als een agent neergestoken wordt

TBH this comment by the author has dramatically reduced my optimism about the "possible signs of alien life" exoplanet result being likely to hold up to further scrutiny. 🤨 (Chris is a prominent astronomer who has written several papers on exoplanets and planetary atmospheres.)

Ik ben echt trots op dit stuk in @nrcnl.bsky.social vandaag! Leerlingen "met AI leren omgaan" betekent voor mij hun geheugen vullen met zoveel mogelijk relevante feiten, zodat ze zich kunnen weren tegen een wereld waarin (binnen en buiten LLMs) steeds onzin op ze af komt.

today's DOGE IS FOUR LETTERS hits a cross-section of a huge group of users on bluesky — people who are space geeks, and people who are software engineers. i hope you enjoy this really thoughtful conversation i had with a software engineer at NASA.

Als gisteren iéts duidelijk heeft gemaakt, is het dat de PVV, de grootste partij van ons land, openlijk voor Poetin heeft gekozen. Niet één zogenaamd foutje van Faber, nee, het zit in de héle partij. De andere regeringspartijen moeten hier toch zsm afstand van nemen?

Last year, the Princess Máxima Center for Pediatric Oncology introduced the 'Infuuts', a special bike for children attached to tubes and IVs. Due to all reactions the bicycle is now produced on a larger scale for use by other hospitals at home and abroad. 👌🏼 🚲 🥰 @themaximacenter.bsky.social

The importance of open source software as developed by the public sector is hard to overstate. Here it provides an ad-free alternative to commercial apps, that themselves are based on publicly funded data.

Felt a bit moody all day, and then figured that for a variety of reasons I hadn’t ridden my bike in over a month. Just a few km of biking and I instantly felt better, even in sub-optimal weather. 🚲 = happiness machine

The Fifth Season by N. K. Jemisin gets checked off as my first book read over the holidays. That was wild. Love the world building and have so many questions. Looks like I’m walking into town tomorrow to buy the second one. (Thanks @khesser.bsky.social for the gift of the first!!!)

"[Gatto] sees headlights as 'a realistic and tangible attack surface on the current trend toward antihuman design in our world, primarily guided by the auto industry.'" This is a fantastic read that explores just how bright headlights are, how we got here, and the harmful effects of bright lights.

Oh look! More research supporting active travel and LTN’s being good for people in the long run. Additionally, turns out they are better economically for places that put them in. I shall contemplate why this is always the case as I walk around doing my errands this morning while shopping locally.

Beukers. Tof doen voor mensen. Kop omhoog. Kleine dingen beter doen. Naast mensen staan die we liefhebben. Niet buigen voor hufters. Laten we beter voor elkaar zijn. Sterker. Moedig. Samen. Hup wij. ✊🏻🖤
