Via Facebook groep “De Aker” wat restaurants die goed bereikbaar zijn (ook met rolstoel).
De eerste link wijst telkens naar Google Maps:
- Hotel Buiten is net ten noorden van het Sloterparkbad
- Bij Qunis zit in het gemaal van Lijnden
- Hotel New Century tegenover De Zwart tankstation serveert authentiek chinees
- De Halve Maen is een Grand Café vlakbij de Sloterbrug tegenover de molen van Sloten
- Later aan het water is een vis/vlees grill restaurant aan de Nieuwe Meerdijk in Badhoevedorp
- Kerkzicht in Sloten tegenover de kerk is een bruine kroeg annex restaurant
- [WayBack] Herbergh van Badhoevedorp, bevat inmiddels twee restaurants: La Bouche (met een Frans/Italiaanse keuken) en Trattoria La Bocca met Italiaanse keuken.
- Bir Bey (los, dus geen Birbey) aan de Ookmeerweg kant van de Akerpoort is een chic Ottomaans restaurant
- Leziz aan de Pieter Calandlaan is meer trendy Turks restaurant
- Sahan aan de Tussenmeer is een meer klassiek Turks restaurant
- Il Delfino Blu aan de Pieter Calandlaan is een combinatie van Turks/Italiaanse Pizzeria, restaurant, snackbar met ook afhaal met daardoor een goede buurtfunctie.

I resolved my issue with tshark, but that’s not available on all systems neither is dnstop. Most systems do have tcpdump though.
Anyway, some links:

On the very early adoption of the spacing in the typography:
Ooit wel eens stilgestaan bij het iets te grote gat tussen de woorden Heineken en Brouwerij op de Stadhouderskade? Of waarom de belettering op bruggen in de stad zo ‘Amsterdams’ aandoet? Waarschijnlijk niet. Typograaf Bas Jacobs deed dat wel. Zijn ontdekkingen bundelde hij in een speciale toeristengids.
A small book (just EUR 15) tells you more about his Amsterdam findings: Safari Typo Amsterdam

Long read: [WayBack] Exclusive: The Silicon Valley quest to preserve Stephen Hawking’s voice – San Francisco Chronicle
Eric Dorsey, a 62-year-old engineer in Palo Alto, was watching TV Tuesday night when he started getting texts that Stephen Hawking had died. He turned on the news and saw clips of the famed physicist speaking in his iconic android voice – the voice that Dorsey had spent so much time as a young man helping to create, and then, much later, to save from destruction. Dorsey and Hawking had first met nearly 30 years earlier to the day. In March 1988, Hawking was visiting UC Berkeley during a three-week lecture tour. At 46, Hawking was already famous for his discoveries about quantum physics and black holes, but not as famous as he was about to be.

I both understand the [WayBack] Urgent security advisory – MikroTik and the users reluctant to upgrade: Mikrotik has a history of updates breaking existing behaviour and underdocumenting features and release notes.
The attack is over the www or www-ssl services which by default run on port 80 and 443. You can see on which networks they are bound using this example from the terminal:

Cool interactive colour mixing:
The www.spectrumcolors.de site has way more interesting pages around colour spaces, colour press techniques (like colour separation, rasterising, etc). Worth visiting!

TL;DR: Connecting to Macs over Thunderbolt is easy and has transfer speeds way faster than other network connections.
Summary of steps from [WayBack] Connecting two Macs using Thunderbolt | Macworld
- Connect the Thunderbolt cable between two Macs
- In the Network Preferences find the self-assigned IP address on either side
- In that side, ensure you have File Sharing enabled
- On the other side, open a Finder, press Command-K, then the IP-address you noted and logon
- Transfer files
This also increases LAN sync speeds of DropBox, Google Drive and others.
Note the connection by default using SMB
