Some notes on receiving ADS-B signals and feeding them to the OpenSky Network and other flight tracker

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/07

Long story short: in many countries, flight operators overload larger and larger portions of their country with excessive noise levels. Somehow they seem to circumvent regulations over and over again.

The Netherlands is no exception, having regulations based on noise “estimates” instead of measurements, and the measurements that are done being owned by the flight operators.

A while ago, the public started to do their own measurements, for instance by the Explane app which relies on the OpenSky Network for flight data.

Living near to an airport that has sleeping slots for their surrounding inhabitants (some 1.5 million plus people) of roughly 23:00-02:00 and 02:30-06:00) the public cost are ever increasing, especially with the planned opening of a new airport causing the split of the flight paths to affect some 5 million inhabitants, I decided to at least feed the OpenSky Network for better coverage of large parts of the sky around the first and second airport.

Also of interest is ADS-B Exchange as it provides unfiltered data:

De rekenmodule 2022 is gepubliceerd – Zilveren Kruis Zorgkantoor

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/06

[Wayback/Archive] De rekenmodule 2022 is gepubliceerd – Zilveren Kruis Zorgkantoor

De rekenmodule 2022 is gepubliceerd

Al eerder zijn het Voorschrift zorgtoewijzing 2022 en de Vertaaltabel 2022 gepubliceerd, daarbij hoort ook een nieuwe rekenmodule.

[Wayback] Naar Adviesformulier en rekenmodule 2022 (xlsx) [Wayback]

Gebruik vanaf 2022 de nieuwe rekenmodule

U gebruikt de nieuwe rekenmodule vanaf 1 januari 2022 ook als de aanvraag over geleverde zorg in 2021 gaat. Meer informatie over de rekenmodule leest u in het Voorschrift Zorgtoewijzing en opĀ onze website [Wayback/Archive].

[Wayback/Archive] De rekenmodule – Zilveren Kruis Zorgkantoor

Zo werkt de rekenmodule

De rekenmodule bevat een aantal stappen om te komen tot een beoordeling. Dit zijn de stappen:

  1. Vul opname, VPT, MPT of DTV in
  2. Vul het geĆÆndiceerde zorgprofiel in
  3. Vul in of uw cliƫnt gebruik maakt van een pgb.
    Zo ja, vul dan in of de rekenmodule is afgestemd met uw cliƫnt.
  4. Vul de zorg in natura in
    Vult u meer dan 6 regels aan zorg voor meerdere zorgaanbieders? Maak dan eerst een regel aan per zorgaanbieder met de AGB-code. Pas daarna vult u de rekenmodule verder aan
  5. Bepaal de doelmatigheid. Is de aanvraag niet doelmatig? Vul dan de reden van extra budget in
  6. Bepaal of u de rekenmodule moet opsturen. Een onderbouwing hiervoor kunt u kwijt op het tabblad ‘Adviesformulier’.

Kijk voor de volledige werkwijze en uitleg op het tabblad ‘Werkwijze rekenmodule’ in de rekenmodule zelf.

Bij een combinatie ZIN met persoonsgebonden budget (pgb) is een rekenmodule noodzakelijk

Op de rekenmodule geeft u aan of de invulling van zorg en de verdeling van ZIN en pgb is afgestemd met de klant. Als er iets wijzigt in het percentage ZIN, heeft dit namelijk gevolgen voor de hoogte van het pgb. En dus voor de zorg die de klant kan inkopen met het pgb.

…

De rekenmodule is voldoende om een combinatie ZIN en pgb aan te vragen

Wil de klant van volledig ZIN of volledig pgb naar een combinatie van ZIN en pgb? Of is er een nieuwe verdeling van ZIN en pgb nodig? Dan hoeft de klant en/of vertegenwoordiger geen omzettingsformulier aan te leveren bij het zorgkantoor.

Wij verwijzen de klant naar u om de rekenmodule af te stemmen en naar ons te sturen. Meer informatie leest uĀ hier [Wayback/Archive].

Prevent link rot before the public condemns you

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/05

I’ve written about link rot quite a few times (it even has a category on my blog).

Preventing it is important, as it improves user experience.

For most users this is an unconscious thing when it works and becomes consciously annoying when it fails.

Some user groups are vocal enough to force you to fix link rot after the fact, causing brand reputation damage.

One good example was last year: [Wayback] Users condemn Microsoft for removing KB IDs from some bug documentation | Computerworld.

Dell 9200 (DXP061) CMOS battery update

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/04

If the CMOS battery of a Dell 9200 (DXP061) the BIOS looses all the settings and resets the timestamp to 2007-11-22 midnight.

Date timestamp is likely because that’s the date stamp of BIOS version 2.5.3 which is still the latest for both the Dimension 9200 and XPS 410 (which are identical: XPS was for the consumer market, Dimension for the business market, only a few options were different):

The manual at [Wayback] dimension-9200_owner’s manual_en-us.pdf mentions how to change the battery, but forgets to mention it is a CR2032.

LuckilyĀ [Wayback/Archive.is] How to Replace a CMOS (coin-cell) Battery on Your Dell Desktop | Dell USĀ had that information.

Autism Awareness Day 2022 #AutismDay

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/02

As today is World Autism Awareness Day – Wikipedia, and women are often not diagnosed despite them being in the autistic spectrum, let’s start with English and Dutch versions of a great book by Bianca Toeps.

Having lived most of her life in The Netherlands, but for years spending half in Japan and half in The Netherlands, she finally emigrated to Japan and gets to The Netherlands every now and then.

English

Autism ā€“ thatā€™s being able to count matches really fast and knowing that 7 August 1984 was a Tuesday, right? Well, no. In this book, Bianca Toeps explains in great detail what life is like when youā€™re autistic.

She does this by looking at what science says about autism (and why some theories can go straight in the bin), but also by telling her own story and interviewing other autistics. Bianca talks in a refreshing and sometimes hilarious way about different situations autistic people encounter in daily life. She has some useful tips for non-autistic people too: what you should do if someone prefers not to look you in the eye, why it is sometimes better to communicate by email, and, most important of all, why it is not a compliment if you say: ā€œBut you donā€™t look autistic at all!ā€

[Wayback/Archive.is] Home – But you don’t look autistic at all – An #ActuallyAutistic book on autism by Bianca Toeps

Dutch

Bestseller. Bianca beschrijft op eigentijdse en humoristische wijze hoe het is om autistisch (en vrouw en ondernemer) te zijn.

Me and autism

Me being diagnosed being in the autistic spectrum, which helped big time surviving rectum cancer that was diagnosed a month later [Wayback/Archive.is] Thread by @jpluimers on Thread Reader App ā€“ Thread Reader App:

Triggered byĀ @jilles_comĀ (link: next tweet), I was diagnosed with autism 18 months ago coincidentally in the same month my mentally retarded brother got the same diagnosis, followed by training.I got a vocabulary explaining so many good and bad things in our lives!

#AutismDay

First the promised link, as it is a start of a wonderful thread:

@jilles_com
Admit Friday: I have been diagnosed with ADHD, Autism and Binge Eating Disorder over 10 years ago after thorough examination. Therapy helped me discover my own manual. Although coping with being different has its challenges, I consider it to be the superpower I embrace.

The diagnosis tremendously helped me get through all the treatments and care after my rectum cancer diagnosis 17 months ago.

Yes, these diagnoses were only 1 month apart!

#AutismDay

Being able to explain I’m autistic (as one does not look autistic at all: helloĀ @biancatoeps), the consequences it has in approaching me, how to sense when I get overloaded and what happens when I do were key in getting proper care.

#AutismDay

Care that was confused why I took Covid-19 isolation so well, which was because I’m really good at following routines/rituals when I understand they benefit me or the community at large:

@jpluimers

Replying to @jpluimers @aboutanurse and @mirakelams

… dat ik niet boos of teleurgesteld was, maar juist blij dat er zo snel gehandeld was: zoiets, zelfs bij een prikafdeling, is een kwestie van pech, want er hoeft maar 1 superspreader op een ongelukkig moment geweest te zijn. Isolatie was op zich voor mij een soort… 3/

#AutismDay

The diagnosis also unconsciously enabled me to drop almost everything else in life like a brick. Now I know why: I had to in order to be able to survive at all, as without survival, I would be there any more for the people close to me.

#AutismDay

This “drop everything like a brick” baffled my Eega, as this was totally different than my normal modus operandi: I hardly ever drop things.

I now know that this is also one of my biggest weaknesses: being so conditioned not dropping things sometimes bites back big.

#AutismDay

Having a vocabulary around autism also helped me to better understand why things happened the way they did in both my life and various lives of people close to me, including my brother and my Eega.

In addition, I can now better communicate with them and others.

#AutismDay

That still often fails (you might think otherwise reading my streams of tweets, but trust me: communication for me is very hard), but not as badly as it used to.

#AutismDay

It failed big time on Tuesday and I only could explain on Wednesday (it is one of the communication aspects I hate: only being able to see things in perspective very very late, often not being able to set things straight by then).

#AutismDay

Tuesday had 2 important administrative deadlines. Administrative things are among the things I dislike very much, so they give me a basic stress level.

I did have enough spoons (seeĀ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spoon_theā€¦) to get that done. But then things started failing.

#AutismDay

Two hardware things and a software thing broke down unexpectedly and needed research in order to estimate when and what kind of actions to take.

Those took many spoons, but also put me into “the zone” – seeĀ en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Flow_(psyā€¦Ā .

#AutismDay

Being “in the zone” uses less spoons than normal, but hasn’t occurred a lot lately as I’m still recovering from all the treatments, so I did not even consciously realise I was in it at all.

Suddenly, I got kicked out of the zone, causing me to be very angry.

#AutismDay

With the vocabulary and the workshops, I know how to handle that situation better, but not in my current state of recovery.

It has to do with awareness and being able to going slightly outside “the zone” to do minor communication, then go back into it.

#AutismDay

This was a tiny insight into where I am in the autistic spectrum.

It is a spectrum so every autistic person is having aspects in that spectrum, but usually in different places or with different gradations.

Those have cons, but also big pros, especially for work.

#AutismDay

The trick is to find where one can excel using the pros and coping with the cons, for instance by steering towards situations where cons hardly happen and pros happen very often.

#AutismDay

I wrote this inspired by [Wayback] Thread by @jilles_com on Thread Reader App ā€“ Thread Reader App starting with:

Admit Friday: I have been diagnosed with ADHD, Autism and Binge Eating Disorder over 10 years ago after thorough examination. Therapy helped me discover my own manual. Although coping with being different has its challenges, I consider it to be the superpower I embrace.…ā€¦

Test telefoonnummer en -adres voor wanneer marketing je gegeven wil

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/04/01

Het is erg vermoeiend als de drogist, nagelstylist, of supermarkt het prive-hemd van je lijf vraagt. Meestal lekken die gegevens, dus het is handig om daar een persona voor te hebben met gegevens die weinig kwaad kunnen.

Voorbeeld:

  • Telefoon: Nul zes, twalf, vier-en-dertig, zes-en-vijftig, acht-en-zeventig.
  • Bezoekadres:
    Bezuidenhoutseweg 30
    2594 AVĀ DEN HAAG
  • Postadres:
    Postbus 93374
    2509 AJĀ  DEN HAAG

Ja, 0612345678 is inderdaad een KPN test nummer.

En bij de Autoriteit Persoonsgegevens zijn ze meteen aan het goede adres om een melding lekkage persoonsgegevens te melde.

En als je echt random-persona’s wilt samenstellen met BSN, bank, foto, noem maar op, probeer het dan eens met deze sites:
