"We cannot turn away from suffering, but I can no longer watch the news coverage from Israel and Gaza | Simon Jenkins"
For once in my life I agree with Sir Jenkins. I still read journalistic news and open-source intelligence reports from Gaza, but avoid "tabloid TV" video coverage. The latter adds nothing, while fuelling "ghoulish voyeurism and simplified spectacle".

In my version control courses I often get the question:
🤷 "Should I use GitHub or GitLab?" 🤷
If you are a researcher, I think you can answer that question for yourself by answering the following two questions:
🤝 Where is my community?: Go where your community is.
🏠 Does my institution have a GitLab instance?: If yes, it is often a good idea to at least start your project on the institutional instance. Copying to GitHub later on is done in <5 minutes.…
2023 is the 10-yr anniversary of blowjobs being legalized in Virginia. When you're filling out a job application and it asks for your sexual orientation and you think to yourself 'can they legally ask me that?' just remember that the US legal system is an absolute farce.

For a separate view, you can call the `printToConsole()` method to have it output the same information to the console.
Not revolutionary or rocket science but still, pretty neat ;)
Tweede Kamer stelt plan minimumloon bij: per 1 juli 1,2 procent omhoog en de partijen noemen dat een flinke koopkrachtverbetering. Nou ik ontving de laatste keer €939,41 (AOW, samenwonend met een jong werkend persoon) dus 1,2% is dan €11,27 in de maand. Je moet toch echt in de politiek zitten om dat een flinke verbetering te durven noemen. Wij hebben meer inkomstenbronnen hoor, maak je over mij maar geen zorgen.
Oktober: het stookseizoen is begonnen
Het is begin november en het waait flink. Tijd om terug te kijken op onze energiekosten, energiegebruik, energieproductie en CO2-uitstoot in oktober. Klinkt saai? Valt wel mee. Tot mijn verrassing hebben we in oktober 38 kilowattuur meer elektriciteit geproduceerd dan gebruikt. Daarmee lag onze CO2-uitstoot in oktober volgens alle vijf de methoden op 0 kilogram. Energiegebruik Ons energiegebruik lag in oktober op 679 kWh, dat is…
