Edit 20260601: Tagged “missed schedule” vanwege de WordPress.com missed schedule bug die sinds 2012 niet is opgelost (kennelijk kan WordPress wel iets met AI, maar een lijst met meer dan 100 geagendeerde blogposts is “too big” voor ze)
Origineel:
Voor in het huurdossier: [Wayback/Archive] Wat is de maximale huurverhoging voor een vrijesectorwoning in 2026? | Rijksoverheid.nl
In 2026 is de jaarlijkse huurverhoging voor vrijesectorwoningen maximaal 4,4%. Dit geldt ook voor ligplaatsen voor woonboten. De huurverhoging moet wel als afspraak in uw huurcontract staan.

Though I have no Reddit account, it has much useful content, so I wish I had known his query site like 15 years ago [Wayback/Archive] SocialGrep – Social Media Analytics for Reddit
It looks like very few people mentioned me on Reddit too. Is that a good thing?

(This post too suffered from the WordPress.com missed schedule bug which has been unfixed since 2012)

OpenAI: We’re burning money like the Joker. A miracle needs to happen for us to turn a profit
Microsoft: Please please use our AI systems, we’re teetering on the edge here
Anthropic: I wonder what’ll kill us first: lawsuits, regulations or model collapse
Media and universities: AI is here to stay
In other news today, in addition to the earlier leaked Anthropic AI model, Mythos got leaked as well – [Wayback/Archive] Dany :verified_gay:: “Ah yes, the almighty Mythos, …” – HSNL Social:

Windows had its own aCropalypse in the Snipping tool, but other UWP based applications are vulnerable of that too because of this:
[Wayback/Archive] Steven Murdoch on Twitter: “However, the new “more secure” Universal Windows Platform (UWP) sandboxes the file picker in a separate process, allowing neat features like capability-based access control. It returns a file handle which, if the selected file exists, will not overwrite the existing content! 3/9”
It is part of this interesting [Wayback/Archive] Thread by @sjmurdoch on Thread Reader App with these two parts just after the above Tweet:
The old Win32 API for saving a file was (roughly) to show a file picker, get the filename the user selected, and then open the file. To open a file, the programmer must specify whether to overwrite the file or not, and example code usually does overwrite the file.
However, the new “more secure” Universal Windows Platform (UWP) sandboxes the file picker in a separate process, allowing neat features like capability-based access control. It returns a file handle which, if the selected file exists, will not overwrite the existing content!
The tread continued supporting this statement, that in the new situation you need to manually truncated the file, and referenced these links:

Last month I wrote about CELL function looks interesting but beware: language nightmares coming up….
There I mentioned both formulas from [Wayback/Archive] Get sheet name only – Excel formula | Exceljet and [Wayback/Archive] Insert the current Excel file name, path, or worksheet in a cell – Microsoft Support failing to deliver the expected results
an official Microsoft example of obtaining the Worksheet name which I suspected would not work on systems allowing ] in path names. And indeed it is true: that case fails on both MacOS and Windows in the same way.
Here you see the failures of both the ExcelJet function and the ones from Microsoft Support on two operating systems:

I could not find a way to add many accounts at once to a Twitter list using the normal App or Web UI, so I did a [Wayback/Archive] twitter mass add accounts to list – Google Search
The only way to do this seems to be to use Google Chrome and install [Wayback/Archive] Better TweetDeck – Chrome Web Store combined with the old TweetDeck UI (or use and install it on any of the other supported browsers).
Note that it is basically a project shelved early 2023, so it will likely have stopped functioning before you read this.

You can find the binary files sound files of the Mastodon beep sound at
They were created by [Wayback/Archive] Josef Kenny (blog: [Wayback/Archive] josef.one; Mastodon “i made that mastodon boop sound”: [Wayback/Archive] josef (@jk@mastodon.social) – Mastodon) early 2017 and updated with metadata later that year. In 2022 it became clear that using the sound is allowed as long as there is credit:
