Vroege avondspits, drukte op wegen vanwege Hemelvaartweekend

De avondspits is woensdag vroeg op gang gekomen. Veel mensen beginnen op tijd aan het lange Hemelvaartsweekend en dat is te merken op de snelwegen in onze provincie.

Bijna 1000 kilometer file op Nederlandse wegen door vakantiedrukte en ongevallen

DEN HAAG - De verwachting dat het deze woensdag een drukke avondspits zou worden "komt helemaal uit", zegt een woordvoerster van de ANWB. "Het is echt veel drukker dan normaal." Rond 16.45 uur stond er op de Nederlandse wegen 995 kilometer file, waarmee dit de op twee na drukste avondspits is dit jaar. Er werd...

FinalCrypt is an Open Source file encryption application. It uses the One-Time pad key generation cipher to encrypt files. In other words, it generates an OTP key which you will use for encrypting or decrypting your files.

The agonizing slow death of the power user

This is a fascinating article to read. The facts are nailed to the wall in clear and easy to comprehend jargon, even for the non-grey beards

Some quotes

Ask a twenty-two-year-old to connect to a remote server via SSH. Ask them to explain what DNS is at a conceptual level. Ask them to tell you the difference between their router’s public IP and the local IP of their laptop. Ask them to open a terminal and list the contents of a directory. These are not advanced topics. Twenty years ago these were things you learned in the first week of any serious engagement with computers. Today they’re exotic knowledge that even a lot of working software developers don’t have, because you can go a long way in modern development without ever leaving the managed abstractions your platform provides.

And that’s the real damage. It’s not just end users who don’t know this stuff. It’s developers. People who write software for a living who’ve never had to think about what happens between their API call and the response. Who’ve never had to debug something at the network layer. Who’ve never had to read a full stack trace and understand every frame of it. Because the frameworks handle all of that, and the frameworks are good enough, and figuring out how things actually work is optional.

iOS set the template. Apple shipped a device in 2007 that was, by any reasonable technical measure, a computer. It had a CPU, RAM, persistent storage, a network stack, and a real operating system descended from BSD Unix. By every cultural and legal measure, however, Apple treated it as something else entirely: an appliance that you licensed rather than owned, that ran software only Apple approved, that couldn’t be meaningfully modified, and that communicated only through channels Apple controlled. No filesystem access. No inter-app communication beyond what Apple chose to expose. No background processes without explicit, limited, grudging permission. No ability to install software from any source other than the App Store — which Apple created, controls, taxes at thirty percent, and can pull your app from at any time for any reason with no meaningful appeals process.

Some facts

Power User

A power user is a user of computers, software and other electronic devices who uses advanced features of computer hardware,[1][2][3] operating systems,[4] programs, or websites[5] which are not used by the average user. A power user might not have extensive technical knowledge of the systems they use[6] but is rather characterized by competence or desire to make the most intensive use of computer programs or systems.

Term use

The term came into use in the 1980s, as advocates for computing developed special skills for working with or customizing existing hardware and software. Power users knew the best ways to perform common tasks and find advanced information before the arrival of the commercial Internet. On PC platforms, power users read magazines like Byte or PC Magazine, and knew enough about operating systems to create and edit batch files, write short programs in BASIC, and adjust system settings. They tended to customize or "supercharge" existing systems, rather than create new software.[7]

Notes

This is systematically done by the factories of technology. I am baffled that a 41 year old litterate person, with secondary school and partial tertiary school, cant tell the difference between an email account, a FB account, a local machine account, a table, notebook and Android phone, from the basic technological perspective. This happened a couple of hours ago, which makes this article very relevant to me.

This person was born two generations ago!

WTF happened to reading manuals!?

I read all manuals I get with hardware I buy, go online to fetch and read, PRINT IF I HAVE TO!

Power Users are a sub-species of homosapiens which is in the greybeard stage.

Eventually we will drop our current corpus and move on to other energy levels of existence

Power users will become extinct in the next generation or two

A bleak future for those left

You don't. All files are binary at the file system level.

Meerdere ongelukken op snelwegen, uur file op A4

In de regio zijn woensdag twee ongevallen gebeurd tijdens de avondspits. Daardoor stond er op het hoogtepunt een uur file op de A4 tussen Den Haag-Zuid en knooppunt Kethelplein in Rotterdam. Ook op de A20 bij Nieuwerkerk aan den IJssel ging het mis.
