It pains me that developer conferences suck so badly these days. All conferences are organized by generic commercial companies that only care about filling the seats and no longer by the people who deeply care about the subject and connecting. As a result, everything is bland and boring.

Beste verzekeraars. Jullie gewoonte om ieder half jaar elkaar over te nemen, te verhuizen, samen te werken, jezelf te hernoemen is een nachtmerrie. Het is onmogelijk te begrijpen waar je verzekerd bent en waarom zonder alle correspondentie verspreid over 20 jaar in volgorde te lezen. #fixit

For people wondering when the right began falling in love with Putin: It was after the passage of the first anti-gay law in Russia in 2013. That was the moment GOP elected officials and rightwing Christian grifters started showing up on Fox to heap praise Putin. www.theguardian.com/world/2013/j...

BREAKING The Trump administration is maintaining a funding freeze at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in defiance of two federal court orders. The ongoing freeze was confirmed by an NIH official and internal correspondence reviewed by Popular Information.

De democratie zit de kleine dictator weer flink in de weg. Tijd om het kabinet — dat door hemzelf is samengesteld — zelf weer weg te stemmen, zodat hij anderen de schuld kan geven dat zijn partij niks voor elkaar krijgt.

Uiteraard probeert de lokale rechtse flapdrol Trump nog even rechts in te halen door nog iets meer olie op het vuur te gooien. Je zou maar even niet in de schijnwerpers staan van de extreem-rechtse medemens! nos.nl/liveblog/255...

I'll just throw this in: "But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security."

I find it suspicious that deepseek is dominating the @cnn.com headlines instead of Trump. Is this self-censorship?

Dear Google, we in the Netherlands would like you to alter every location outside the Netherlands to have the suffix "of the Netherlands". So, NYC of the Netherlands, Greenland of the Netherlands, Gulf of America of the Netherlands etc. Should be easy. Thanks. edition.cnn.com/2025/01/28/t...

Hebben we het eigenlijk al die tijd verkeerd begrepen en moeten we bij het woord kerstverlichting eigenlijk eerder denken aan een soort lastenverlichting in plaats van feestverlichting? Dat je bv plotseling onverwacht niet op visite hoeft op 2e kerstdag: "kerstverlichting". #kerst #kerstverlichting
