VAT invoice
If you live in the European Union, Switzerland, or Norway, learn how to request a VAT invoice:
You can request each month’s invoice in the first few days of the following month. It might take up to 24 hours to process your request.
The address shown on your VAT invoice is your legal address at the time the purchase was made. You can’t change the address that appears on a VAT invoice after the purchase is made.
- Sign in to Settings.
- Check that you’ve entered your tax ID number. If you haven’t, enter it now.
- In some countries, you can’t get a VAT invoice if you didn’t enter your tax ID number before you made the purchase.

- Click on the transaction you want an invoice for.
- At the bottom of the transaction details, click Download VAT invoice. You may be asked to enter some information, like your full address or a tax ID.
- Click Save. You’ll see a link where you can download your invoice.

I never knew poaching of eggs is so easy!
- no vinegar
- no salt
- no stirring
- no thermometer
- no poacher
Just a frying pan with 4cm water that is not boiling, a ladle spoon, a large kitchen sieve, and fresh eggs will do; for each egg:
- empty it in the ladle spoon
- gently drop the ladle spoon content in an empty spot in the water
- let the egg white stiffen for 3-4 minutes
- pull it out with the kitchen sieve when done
So here are some links:

Paper: [Wayback/Archive] The circadian immune system
Abstract
The immune system is highly time-of-day dependent. Pioneering studies in the 1960s were the first to identify immune responses to be under a circadian control. Only in the last decade, however, have the molecular factors governing circadian immune rhythms been identified. These studies have revealed a highly complex picture of the interconnectivity of rhythmicity within immune cells with that of their environment. Here, we provide a global overview of the circadian immune system, focusing on recent advances in the rapidly expanding field of circadian immunology.

Just a few weeks left:
[Archive] Lex Tabak on Twitter: “Vanaf 1 januari 2022 word iedere zzp’er in de zorg gezien als zorgaanbieder, ook als je als onderaannemer werkzaam bent.”
[Wayback/Archive] Nieuwe wet maakt van iedere zzper in de zorg een zorgaanbieder
Als je
de kwaliteitscheck van de Inspectie doorloopt, dan merk je dat als zzper aan een aantal eisen te voldoen hebt. Of je nu als onderaannemer werkzaam bent of voor eigen cliënten, er worden een aantal zaken van je verlangd. Een indruk van de eisen vind je
hier. ZZP-erindezorg.nl heeft
het Wtza abonnement bedacht om te kunnen voldoen aan de eisen. Voor
€ 10 per maand breng jij je basis op orde en heb je een volledig pakket waarmee je aan de Wtza kunt voldoen. ZZP-erindezorg.nl is tot op heden de enige aanbieder die alle eisen rondom de Wtza heeft samengebracht.

I had trouble creating a Microsoft Account (so I could hand out on-line Office Licenses to users) where each time after solving the image or audio puzzle, it would shortly display a success, then loop back to the puzzle.
So I wrote a [Wayback/Archive] Thread by @jpluimers on Thread Reader App as I got stuck even before trying to add a Microsoft Account on any on m’y devices Windows 11 or Windows 10. It started with
[Wayback/Archive] Hi @MicrosoftHelps, I have a different problem. When creating an account using Edge on Windows 10 (latest version of both; no plugins; Microsoft Defender in default settings), solving the puzzle loops back to “Please solve the puzzle so we know you’re not a robot.”
The odd thing is that it did not work in either Edge or Chrome (both based on Chromium which uses the Blink browser engine) even in the anonymous/private browsing mode (InPrivate for Edge or Incognito Mode for Chrome).
Even Firefox had trouble, despite it being based on a totally different Gecko browser engine: after solving the puzzle it would continue but instead of displaying success, it showed an error page (the error page also occurred in the Firefox Private Browsing mode):

Food for thought:
[Wayback] xahteiwi.eu – Meaningless Metrics, Treacherous Targets
A common feature of organizations in the software technology industry (but certainly not only in that industry) is their fixation on metrics, measurements, and quantifiers. I understand that this is frequently done and advocated for in the spirit of making management more objective, less arbitrary, more scientific, and perhaps fairer. But since they say that the road to hell is often paved with good intentions, here’s a quick summary of what we know about about the undesirable side effects of such an approach.
Basically, when the metric becomes the goal, it will not reliably measure the underlying figures any more.
By [Archive] Florian Haas on Twitter: “I wrote something long-ish on metrics over the weekend. I’m pretty certain this won’t go unchallenged, as people tend to have strong opinions on this. 🙂 “.
Via [Archive] Kristian Köhntopp on Twitter: “In writing this, @xahteiwi had probably done more for the advancement of SRE as a practice than one hundred conference talks could do. Thanks for that.… “.

A known Windows Insider bug has entered the Windows 11 release: Task Manager will show wrong colours (on my stock Dell Windows 11 installs, see below, it will be dark on dark) under certain custom Windows colour settings (“Choose your mode” set to “Custom”).
Edit 20221214: it got fixed
OS Build 22621.963 [Wayback/A] KB5021255 fixed this on Patch Tuesday (which arrived on my machines later than my original publication), see [Wayback/Archive] December 13, 2022—KB5021255 (OS Build 22621.963) – Microsoft Support

Today it is 5 years ago that Paweł passed away. For me it is hard to believe that I’m still around and this post feels like yesterday: R.I.P. Paweł Głowacki – you will be dearly missed, not just in the Delphi community
Thinking about you today Paweł!
