Bookmarklets are basically URLs that execute a JavaScript function.
Sometimes you want to rely on external JavaScript files (for instance jQuery), but Bookmarklets themselves cannot do that.
Bookmarklets can modify the current page though, and use those to load a script, wait until it is loaded, then continue executing.
Often that is OK as you want to operate the Bookmarklet on that page anyway, but be careful though that you do not mess up the page by loading an incompatible script: test, test, test!

My filter removal tool broke, so while I had new ones on order, I had to figure out how many F-stops I would need to compensate for especially because I would be shooting during the evening.
Here are some links that gave me an impression:
Although 1.3 f-stops is the average amount of light a polarizing filter blocks, this can vary according to the scene and your position relative to the light waves coming from your light source. The average is slightly different between linear polarizers and circular polarizers.
If you own a modern DSLR camera, it will probably have a partially reflecting mirror. The presence of this partially reflecting mirror can cause metering errors if you use a linear polarizer with a DSLR camera. A CPL filter does not interfere with the lens metering system, however, so is the right choice of polarizing filter for a DSLR camera.
Don’t you love the accessibility (a11y) awareness of people that put tables as images on their web-pages? The last link above did (see the image on the right below), I don’t: I love plain HTML with plain old rules and left-alignment content when it makes things more readable, so I converted it into a plain HTML table (: Read the rest of this entry »

Ergens zomer 2022 werd het nieuwe Mijn PGB Portaal verplicht. Voorheen verliepen declaraties en dergelijke via een portaal van het SVB. Die was niet snel, had soms nukken, maar voldeed aan meer NORA richtlijnen dan het nieuwe portaal.
ICTU is een speler die exclusief op de overheidsmarkt functioneert, dus daarvan zou je verwachten dat die snappen wat NORA inhoudt en een goed product neer zetten.
Het tegendeel is waar: ik schreef in september 2022 een Twitter draad met veel screenshots over mijn eerste ervaring met het nieuwe portaal en de migratie van de onderliggende data waaruit het tegendeel bleek.
Ik ben benieuwd hoe de status nu is.

This was fall 2022: [Wayback/Archive] Lists Memberships. Wondering what Twitter lists I am on by now.
Via: [Wayback/Archive] twopcharts_nl on Twitter: “Bij elk overzicht met lijstnamen, waarbij de meest recente lijsten boven en de oudste lijsten onder staan, van bekendere accounts, zie je de verharding van Twitter. Zo ook bij dit account van @BoswachterTim”

Chrome warned me of a list of extensions that it thought were unsupported pointing me towards [Wayback/Archive] Install and manage extensions – Chrome Web Store Help: Unsupported extensions.
It included ones important to me like [Wayback/Archive] Pushbullet – Chrome Web Store and [Wayback/Archive] ClearURLs – Chrome Web Store.
My full local list was at the bottom of chrome://extensions/ where you have to both “keep it” to get them re-installed in the “This extension was turned off because it is no longer supported” state, and after keeping them switch them on plus conforming the switch on to be able to use them.
A quick search revealed this likely has to do with Manifest V2 support: [Wayback/Archive] Why is my Chrome saying the Pushbullet Extension is no longer supported? : PushBullet (that post was 9 months ago, so it looks Chrome is spreading the nagging period over a long time).
This means I need to find a Chromium based browser that plans to support Manifest V2 for a long time. For now Brave indicates that it wants to: [Wayback/Archive] What Manifest V3 means for Brave Shields and the use of extensions in the Brave browser | Brave

This is not limited to organisations having a lot of non-measurable goals: all organisations have those, including the ones in IT.
