Nou was ik ook op een hogeschool deze week en ik herken de situatie uit dit stuk en ik ben er ook kapot van: https://www.nrc.nl/nieuws/2026/03/27/ik-ben-een-docent-in-rouw-a4923444?utm_source=clipboard&utm_medium=clipboard&utm_campaign=share&utm_term=share-modal&gift_token=4923444~1775222592~xaUY7O7bRbydGeZo43Zzfw~iwgi55PDYH4-jrpmRf8N7a7ivwCGRxeOQCep5NKO-r4

AI: Schrijven, mijn beroep, mijn roeping, verliest aan betekenis. En het onderwijs, waar ik ooit vol idealen en inspiratie in stapte, dreigt een intensief samenwerkingsverband met Sam Altman en consorten te worden, schrijft Merel Kamp.

There is no such thing as an " alpha " in a wolf pack. An early study that coined the term "alpha wolf" had only observed unrelated adult wolves living in captivity. In the wild, wolf packs operate like families: parents are in charge until the young grow up and start their own families, and younger wolves do not overthrow an "alpha" to become the new leader. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_common_misconceptions_about_science,_technology,_and_mathematics#Mammals

so just to be totally clear AI is "democratizing" programming by taking something that used to free to do and making it so you pay a subscription fee to an American corporation to do it while being barred from ever actually understanding how it works, am I getting that right?

Geweldig! De Kamer steunt ons voorstel voor een einde aan vleesstunten in supermarkten ✊

Bizar dat supermarkten volop kiloknallers aanbieden tijdens een klimaat- en natuurcrisis. Boeren worden gedwongen zo goedkoop mogelijk te produceren en dieren betalen de hoogste prijs 🐷

De Kamer is nu duidelijk: stop hiermee!

In today's episode of "Can It Run Doom": DNS fucking TXT records.

Some absolute madlad (cough Adam Rice cough) compressed the entire shareware DOOM WAD, split it into around 1,964 chunks, shoved them into Cloudflare TXT records, and wrote a PowerShell script that reassembles and runs the whole goddamn game from DNS queries alone. Nothing touches disk. The DLLs are in DNS. THE FUCKING DLLS ARE IN DNS.

RFC 1035 was written in 1987. Those engineers are spinning in their graves fast enough to generate municipal power.

Bonus: this is a fully functional globally-distributed covert data exfil channel that your NGFW will never fucking see if you're not doing deep DNS inspection. Sleep well.

Also lmao @ every blue team that has never once looked at their DNS query volume. How's that DLP policy working out for you.

It was always DNS.

I've been critical of the way the @verge has been covering the development of HBO's upcoming Harry Potter reboot. But it looks like it wasn't in vain.

If you're going to cover it, *this* is how the series should be described every time it's mentioned.

Keeping money from going to the Harry Potter franchise isn’t just a symbolic gesture. It’s about preventing real harm to real people.

This is where "Harry Potter" profits are going.

Scholen zijn dure wegwerpboeken zat en kiezen massaal voor nieuwe uitgever

Scholen sluiten zich massaal aan bij de nieuwe coöperatieve schoolboekenuitgever Neon. Ze willen zo meer grip krijgen op de prijs, kwaliteit en duurzaamheid van schoolboeken. Bijna 1400 scholen met ruim 650.000 leerlingen zijn al lid, een kwart van het totale aantal leerlingen op basis- en middelbare scholen.

“It very neatly describes the way liberals see the world and political struggle … I’d like to imagine that there's some alternate universe where Rowling actually believed in something and Harry was actually built up as the anti-Voldemort he was only hinted as being in the beginning of the books.”
