New incredible detail here: ICE says a match in its facial recognition app Mobile Fortify is a "definitive" determination of a person's status, and that this overrides birth certificates. This is an app ICE is using in the field to scan people

Dutch television has a quite wonderful tradition of bringing together the party leaders a few days before the election.

For Q&A, quizzes, questions from children and collaborative exercises.

Many young folks, and their parents, watch and the atmosphere is lighter, constructive and substantive!

Germany's justice ministry held firm and killed EU chat control (for now):

"Chat control without cause must be taboo in a state governed by the rule of law. Private communication must never be under general suspicion."

Admirably concise and direct. German in the best possible way.

Leuk hoor de CL finale, maar vanavond is het echte toetje.

Rake observaties. De treinen zijn er al, maar het ontdekken en boeken van zo’n reis is veel werk. Terwijl je met 3x klikken een vliegreis boekt.
Een paar observaties na twee weken interrailen met het gezin naar/door Italië.

1. Wat is treinreizen toch heerlijk! Het veranderende landschap glijdt aan je voorbij terwijl je leest, spelletjes speelt of lekker naar buiten kijkt.

En nog klimaat-OK ook, dit gun je iedereen!

Assuming we make it through the next couple of decades, this will be an incredible image for future historians/students of the Trump era

Sounds like a really awesome use case for ChatGPT and the likes. An expert on demand (given you have the right basic knowledge to begin with, of course).
Learned a lot today with a "EXPLAIN ANALYSE" session together with ChatGPT and Postgresql. Adding one "simple" index to the database can make something that's slow very fast. 🏎️

Iemand een goede aanbeveling voor echt goede Nederlandse politieke podcasts, beetje a la Pod Save America, maar dan in het Nederlands?
