No problem, enjoy the event!

See you there!

If you spot another “ghost” layout that is not on my list, please ping me, I am pretty sure there are more hiding in there 👀🧩

Hidden PowerPoint SmartArt layouts you can only find through Designer The SmartArt gallery in PowerPoint for the desktop does not show every layout that exists. Some only appear through Designer suggestions, and others are tucked away in the web version of PowerPoint. I...

23 hidden #SmartArt layouts in #PowerPoint! 🤓
None show in the desktop gallery: 15 are Designer-only, 8 do show up in the web SmartArt menu (+Designer).
I cataloged them + a copy/paste PPTX + URNs: blog.hompus.nl/2026/02/26/h...

Veel succes met het examen!

A screenshot of code defining two arrays: one for "Size Groups" with numeric keys mapping to size descriptions (Zero, Tiny, Small, Medium, Large, Huge, Gigantic, Folders), and another for "Date Groups" with string keys mapping to time descriptions (Today, Yesterday, Last Week, Two weeks ago, Last month, Two months ago, Last year, Two years ago, Tomorrow, Two days from now, Next week, Next month, Next year, Two years from now, Sometime this millenia). There's a comment in the "Date Groups" array mentioning a bug in Windows XP related to grouping files by date. <alt text generated by AI: https://alttexter.lovable.app/>

Did you know this feature was already present in Windows XP? 🤓

Thanks for the mention. ❤️
Just one remark: the code on your page is light gray on white, hard to read

How I use Claude Code to keep my architecture decisions on track I've been building a project almost entirely with AI, and it changed how I think about architecture documentation. When AI writes most of your code, your job shifts toward design — and that means you'...

I use Claude Code for writing ADRs for my projects. These decision records form an important basis for explaining context to my coding agent. Want to learn more? Read it here:

Simply, I will not.

Onderweg eigenlijk niets spannends op de snelwegen (Nijmegen - Oss - Schiedam)
Alleen voor de Beneluxtunnel ineens 20min over 4km terwijl er niets aan de hand was.

GOEDEMORGEN! 😅

Happy new year CET! 🕛🎆🎇

Good luck to anyone working on the #ER / #SEH (Spoedeisende Eerste Hulp), the #firebrigade or the #police in the Netherlands tonight. I fear it's going to be the mother of all #NewYearsEve. I also hope from here on things will be better.

Yup, a common easter egg 🤓

Om te voorkomen dat je mensen lastig valt tijdens hun vakantie. Zeer gezonde feature.

Every trans person--including every trans child--deserves the chance to be fully themselves. I'm so sick of seeing trans folks harmed repeatedly and unrelentingly, against all reason and scientific precedent. To my trans friends--I'm so sorry the world keeps trying to dim your light.

A big thanks to @was.tl for another fun start of december with a bit of sleep deprivation. 🥱

For me, #AdventOfCode is all about competition, if only with myself and BenchmarkDotNet. 🚀 I know, there is still room for improvement...
