A lot of people really don't have a clue about email. It is really not uncommon for a telemarketer to respond with "You work here too?", when I give them a theircompanyname@mydomain.nl address.

It's a little more nuanced compared to water bottles. Coffee powder needs to be kept in a sealed container to be 'fresh' (apart from expiry). So if you don't drink coffee often, pads could be a more sensible choice.

I tend to use present tense as I'm describing the change that is to be applied to the code by the commit. It often also is terser than past tense by a few chars, sometimes just enough to fit in the commit title (Add vs Added).

As is tradition, every year our Intelligence and Security Service post a Christmas Puzzle with challenging/cryptographic puzzles. Translation from Dutch is a extra difficulty step.

I remember vaguely having to create a bootable floppy for an old os9 installation. It had to be done by dragging a system file from the OS onto the floppy in a special way which is termed "Blessing".

YouTube recently suggested Impulse to me (sci-fi/drama) out of the blue. Just the first 3 episodes for the rest you needed premium. It definitely looked like a show you would find on Netflix or TV in terms of production.

Do you have any examples of this? I have never noticed this so far, the "crew" is always in the video or am just not watching those videos?

I also rode this kind of bike once as a kid on a fair. Same thing, the reflex was to strong and familiar to consciously override it. I had a similar experience like this when I wanted to learn snowboarding, I tried to do it myself without l

As a fellow Dutchman I must confess my bike is in the shed most days of the year. I live in the suburbs of Arnhem so maybe its different from cities like Utrecht/Amsterdam. Most transport for me is either by car or walking.

It can have its rewards indeed. But there is no guarantee it will.

Besides that, not every pet is a bundle of joy. Cats and dogs get sick or chronically disabled (most therapy breeds are also highly susceptible to bone deceases). So now you have your "best friend" that requires constant attention

My 1975 (Dutch) house came with screw style valves, not push style which this document seems to describe. I can imagine there is a large amount of different screw type valves that have no adapter of any type available. I ended up replacing

I think there might be an incentive for money eyed businessmen to keep prices for these kind of products low. The more people have a verified decease, the more you can sell specific (expensive) cures to. As opposed to not knowing the treatm

They give 5 year warranty which seems like a lot, but one of the bigger bike manufacturers in the Netherlands gives 10 years[0] on (metal) bikes. So my guess is they are less durable. [0] https://www.gazelle.nl/service/

I read it in a Dutch magazine, but it could very well have been based on the article you're referring to. It was a lot shorter, but 1998 seems the right time.

It was in a magazine I read in my youht 20 years or so back. I'll try to find it online if it's there.

Could be, it was an article in a young scientist magazine maybe 20 years back or so. As I remember they iterated over actual hardware versions using modular passive components (resistors, capacitors, coils) much like you would find in a sch
