Ha. I said the same thing last week and got three contradictory answers. [107.1]

I had the opposite experience in Weesp. Maybe it is a platform thing. [39.3]

Unpopular take: the coffee at Maastricht is better than half the specialty bars in the city.

Copied a production dump into staging and immediately found the row that should not exist. Classic.

Update 88: Roaster in Markerkant asked how I wanted it. I said “like the 11:00 train: late but intense”. They understood.

Yes. Ask for the auth code status, not a human SLA. [107.2]

If it flips to complete with no mail, that is still “success”. Quiet success. [39.4]

We tried that route via Europoort. Worse pavement, better wind. [107.3]

Anyone else stuck behind a disrupted sprinter near Muiden? Bring a book.

Wind at Almere Poort was personal today. My hair has filed a complaint.

Update 89: We should talk more about median reply time in civic spaces and less about vanity member counts.

Update 132: Found a bench in Maastricht that is not next to a speaker. I am not telling you which one.

This should be in the house rules. People keep rediscovering it. [39.6]

Neighbourhood tip: skip the main square at Zeewolde on Saturday. Side streets are calmer and the bakery still has bread.

I miss when “the cloud” meant someone else’s computer and not twelve product names for the same invoice.

Update 90: Packing for Groningen: rain jacket, spare inner tube, unreasonable optimism.

I am quoting this later. Too clean a summary to lose. [39.7]

Let me know if you still need a trailer. Mine is free after 10:00. [118.1]

I enabled DNSSEC on a side project and spent the evening staring at DS records. 10/10, would panic again.

Brought leftover cake to Markerkant. It vanished in four minutes. Data point: people like cake.
