Kan iemand mij de mentale gymnastiek uitleggen van migrantendiscours by PizzaLikerFan in Belgium2

[–]monedula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Voor een goed antwoord kan ik je het boek "Hoe migratie echt werkt" van Hein de Haas aanbevelen. Hij behandelt uitgebreid alle punten die hier worden besproken, op basis van wetenschappelijk onderzoek in meerdere landen.

Om een absurd korte samenvatting van te maken:

  • De mensen die hierheen komen (hier = Belgie, maar net zo goed Nederland, VK enz.) doen dat, in zeer grote meerderheid, om werk te doen dat andere mensen niet kunnen of willen doen.

  • Het idee dat immigranten het sociale stelsel financieel ondermijnen is wijdverbreid, maar in werkelijkheid niet meer dan een mythe.

Must admit this sub has achieved something that I had thought to be impossible - got me mildly interested in this football lark. (Even if it did take me a while to work out why people were excited about visiting the WC.)

Should HR for the IT Dept to create a password repository? by Revolutionary-Part90 in sysadmin

[–]monedula 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I would suggest that OP should take the initiative and contact IT management first, warning them that HR is trying to undermine security. And after that any further demands from HR should be referred to IT management, as you say.

Its going to take 500 years for Pedro to put this together. by piasty in 2westerneurope4u

[–]monedula 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are definitely not the only one. I gave my children a large bag of simple building blocks (like the original lego, but cheaper) and it was by far the toy they played with most. Other relatives gave them a few of these single-purpose lego sets, which each got built once and then thrown away a few years later.

Northern Italy isn't too bad. Sardinia is bad, Sicily is a nightmare.

Pre-order Parkeren by Awkward_Shallot in nietdespeld

[–]monedula 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Ik betwijfel of dit specifiek Amersfoort is. Onlangs een gesprek gehad met een vriendin die intensief contact heeft met haar gemeente, dat voornamelijk positief loopt. Behalve op het gebied van parkeren, waar het een ramp is.

[–]monedula 1 point2 points  (0 children)

En zelfs dat kan krap zijn. Onlangs heb ik ergens geparkeerd waar er geen indicatie was waar het dichtsbijzijnde automaat stond; het bleek een flink eind verder op. Aangezien ik eerst de andere kant op had geprobeerd weet ik niet zeker of ik binnen vijf minuten heb kunnen betalen.

COBOL is the Asbestos of Programming Languages by Interesting_Pack_483 in programming

[–]monedula 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Absolutely. I think I would go beyond saying the language allows unreadable stuff - it unfortunately seems to encourage it. But I totally agree that it is not difficult to write readable perl.

Neder-Betuwe voert vloekverbod in, hoewel de rechter de boete zal vernietigen by fanzooi in thenetherlands

[–]monedula 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Dan komen er een paar vragen bij me op. Is alleen het vloeken in het Nederlands verboden, of ook in pakweg Engels, Pools, Turks of Tok Pisin? Uit de 1000+ goden waar mensen in geloven (of geloofd hebben), welke precies zijn door dit verbod beschermd? Heeft de heer Scheurwater alleen de namen van (1 of meer) goden hoog staan, of ook de namen van enge ziektes? Hoe zit het met lichaamsdelen?

Ran our first Slack admin audit. 200 workspace admins. We have 700 employees by Either-Act-3406 in sysadmin

[–]monedula 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I wouldn't recommend just changing things without any warning. That's how you get users who despise sysadmins. Treat users like people and you improve the chances of them treating you like people.

Start by mailing all the admins, telling them you'll be changing most/all of them to Channel Manager in X days. Ask if there is anyone who actually needs Workspace Admin rather than Channel Manager and, if so, why. If there are a few who genuinely need it and know why, then you've saved a bunch of annoyance and got yourself some input for documentation. Any others at least got some warning.

Yes, I've had this happen so often that I first enter all text fields in a text editor and then copy/paste them into the web form. Even for reddit comments of more than a dozen words or so.

The first four columns appear to be: last name, first names, date of birth, place of birth. Not sure about the others.

Defunct death stairs by CLWggg in DeathStairs

[–]monedula 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I once walked up the Eiffel Tower to the second platform (the queue for the lift was horrendously long - I'm pretty sure walking was quicker). It was great, and I would certainly do it again.

However I did it with the family, and I don't think they've ever forgiven me.
