Een aantal linkjes over grootboeknummers

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/01/28

Voor de administratie van mijn broer en wijlen moeder maakte ik gebruik van grootboeknummers.

Hoewel je dat normaal alleen voor bedrijven doet, functioneerde dit wonderbaarlijk wel.

Hier wat linkjes die ik gebruikt heb om de juiste grootboeknummers te kiezen:

Over stemmen in je hoofd: de criticus en de lieverd

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/01/28

De meesten hebben een veel sterkere invloed van de criticus in hun hoofd dan de lieverd. Geef de laatste ook eens aandacht, bijvoorbeeld door vaker te lachen.

Medische gegevens | LUMC

For my link archive:

Problem was that the privacy statement was not on a separate page during DigiD logon: you had to copy/paste to word in order to save it.

Lode Runner Web Game

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/01/24

Just found out about [Wayback] Lode Runner Web Game:

A HTML5 (CreateJS) remake of Lode Runner

I have played that way too much in my Apple ][ and //e days.

Hopefully I won’t be addicted to it as back in those days.

Just watching the demo mode is soooooo cool!

I remember designing my own lievens, then winning from the local Apple shop (Vlasveld Computers, which also had a country wide Apple magazine). Cool days!

How I learned that no, l’Hôtel de Ville is not a hotel…

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/01/21

From a while back, in response to Brexit people wanting to have a second home in France but refusing to speak French at all, but basically demanding a second UK in France.

[Wayback] Thread by @jpluimers on Thread Reader App – Thread Reader App / [Archive.is] Jeroen Pluimers on Twitter: “Note that I find French a beautiful, but tough to learn language. This has to do both with dyslexia and autism. I still try. Which leads to odd and humorous situations. 1/… “:

Work Chronicles | Comics about Work on Twitter: “Fast-paced Environment… “

Posted by jpluimers on 2022/01/05

Even when young, this transcript should raise all the red flags:

  1. Recruiter: At this job, you will get to work at a fast paced environment.
  2. Recruiter: You will get to thrive under pressure.
  3. Recruiter: And you will be part of a dynamic team.
  4. Applicant: Great, new that you’ve outlined the cons, what are the pros?

Language oddities: siblings (English) and Geschwister (German) have no Dutch equivalent word

Posted by jpluimers on 2021/12/17

A while ago I learned that the English word siblings translates into the German word Geschiwster.

Before that, I thought Geschwister was synonym to Schwester; long story at [Archive.is] Jeroen Pluimers on Twitter: “Dat lukt heel behoorlijk. Over Duits: heeft dar een woord voor ‘sibblings’? In het Nederlands kom je dan af en toe “brussen” tegen. Hoe zit dat in het Duits?… “.

There is Dutch word that comes close “brussen” which:

  • has no wide spread use,
  • does mean brothers and sisters (broers en zussen),
  • but in the context of one or more sibblings that have one sibbling with special needs.

In a time where gender has become less important, privacy more important, I think it is time to put more emphasis on the neutral use of “brussen”.
