Burgers ontdekken dat hun medische gegevens in het systeem staan en door verschillende partijen zijn geraadpleegd, zonder dat ze daar ooit toestemming voor gaven. De enige manier om zeker te weten dat je dossier niet via het systeem beschikbaar wordt gesteld, is door dit zelf na te vragen.

on the dB scales and audio
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/09/03
- Double or twice the loudness = factor 2 means about 10 dB more sensed loudness level (psycho acoustic)
- Double or twice the voltage = factor 2 means 6 dB more measured voltage level (sound pressure level)
- Double or twice the power = factor 2 means 3 dB more calculated power level (sound intensity level)
Now that we’ve straightened that one out…

Posted by jpluimers on 2018/09/03
A while back, I needed to show the Teamup Calendar for my marching band at a specific date.
Luckily I found [Wayback/Archive] Calendar Link ParametersTeamup Calendar allowing me to assemble such link:
https://teamup.com/ks7a793f73fc4d5e89?date=2018-09-03&view=l
Which shows at the end of the month, we are going to perform on Tattoo on Stage in Luzern (Lucerne), Switzerland in the famous KKL concert hall:

Solution when xs4all keeps sending non-billing letters to the address where the internet connection is: change contact address
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/08/31
When applying for an internet connection with xs4all and specifying a different billing address, other letters still arrive at the address where the internet connection resides.
I had that, and didn’t want it: [WayBack] Twitter / Notifications. You might not want it for different reasons.
After contacting the web care, both sides learned there are three addresses:
- billing address (bills)
- contact address (all other post than bills)
- service address (where your internet connection – like fiber, ADSL – is connected)
according to the webcare person, it looked like you can only change the “contact address” through the service desk. You can, so that information is still below.
But contacting the service desk revealed that you can also perform two address changes on-line after logging in to https://mijn.xs4all.nl.
- billing address:
- contact address:
- go to https://mijn.xs4all.nl/?mod=index&mod=verhuizen, then
- follow the link under “Verhuizen zonder internetverbinding” named “Adreswijziging doorgeven” to get to https://mijn.xs4all.nl/?mod=address&mod=move
- fill in the form
- submit the form
- confirm the submission
Of course you cannot change the service address as it is where your physical internet connection resides.
xs4all service desk:
[WayBack] https://www.xs4all.nl/contact/
Klantenservice phone +31203987666
Opening hours:
- 08:00 – 20:00 Monday through Friday
- 10:00-17:00 Saturday

It doesn’t have to be crazy at work
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/08/31
Reminder to check out if this book about “the calm company” has been released yet: [WayBack] It doesn’t have to be crazy at work.
Basecamp is an interesting company that has put action there there mouth is:
Trusted by millions, Basecamp puts everything you need to get work done in one place. It’s the calm, organized way to manage projects, work with clients, and communicate company-wide.
…
We’ve designed our company differently. We’re here to tell you about it, and show you how you can do it. There’s a path. You’ve got to want it, but if you do you’ll realize it’s much nicer over here. You can have a calm company too.
No, it is not The Little Book Of Calm, or another one of that series (;
If it is not yet out, you can still pre-order from Amazon in the USA and Europe:
- https://smile.amazon.com/Doesnt-Have-Be-Crazy-Work/dp/0062874780
- https://smile.amazon.de/Doesnt-Have-Be-Crazy-Work/dp/0062874780

I bumped into this a while ago, but since I’ve been doing quite a bit of research lately, it’s worth repeating.

If your mail auto-responder directs to a new email address, don’t have the new one also auto-respond
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/08/27
Base on the below (Dutch) tweet where an organisation had an auto-responder like this:
Thanks for your message. As of 20150701, we have a new email address: foo@example.org.
Did you use any of our old email addresses, then we forwarded it to the new one.
You will get a response to your e-mail within 5 working days.
Any mail to foo@example.org would get the same auto-response.
They should just leave out the first 2 sentences.

Drone no-fly zones | ministerie van Infrastructuur en Milieu
Posted by jpluimers on 2018/08/20
If you ever want to fly a drone without a license in The Netherlands, be prepared that the flying zones are very limited, especially in : [Archive.is] Drone no-fly zones | ministerie van Infrastructuur en Milieu
The text isn’t very clear, even to Dutch people, so there is some discussion and explanation in these links:
- [WayBack] Tips voor de staatssecretaris voor veilig vliegen met drones in Nederland
- [WayBack] Drone Regels & Regelgeving Nederland 2017 | Online uitleg
- [WayBack] Ministerie geeft toelichting op regelgeving drones | Dronewatch
More temporary airspace restrictions are here:
