An attempt to explain some programming paradigm visually.

The idea that product (design) teams need a vision to work towards. The examples are a bit outdated (a car and a cruise ship should not be the ultimate goal anymore), but this is something our students should probably learn. And something we, as a school, should do as well?

Interessant, over een uitgestorven vorm van het Nederlands.

PNG got an update with HDR as the most important update (I guess)

Brilliant video showing the three shapes of stories.

Laten we weigeren onze kinderen op te offeren in naam van een natiestaat

I really should make a martian clock. It should somehow be political though.

Interesting tool to see how music is linked. Works the same with all kinds of creativity and art of course, we could use more of these visualising tools

Very interesting article that points out that the EAA goes much further than the WCAG. We should focus on that as well.

Nice docu. Interesting insights about how to run things, and how to do inclusion.

Natural colours, coloured landscape in Amsterdam

A few extra arguments against LLMs. Mostly a personal answer/rant to an earlier article, and mostly pointing out flaws in the argumentation. For instance, that something was bad 6 months ago doesn't mean it’s good now. The same argument was used 6 months ago by the same people. Comparing people to large organisations when it comes to copyright Anonymous examples The fact that something gets attention doesn’t mean it’s as good as stated: see apps, crypto, etc. The fact that CEOs want us to use it, same thing, and even worse, because CEOs etc
