Heuglijk nieuws, ons kabinet overweegt een Nederlandse versie van SPRIND op te zetten, in Duitsland geleid & opgestart door mijn goede vriend @rafbuff. Misschien krijgen we ook een Nationaal Agentschap voor Disruptieve Innovatie (NADI)! Het is echt een machtig mooi concept. berthub.eu/tkconv/document.htm

Om het Nederlandse innovatievermogen te versterken en risicovolle technologieontwikkeling sneller van de grond te krijgen, doet het kabinet binnen bestaande kaders een verkenning naar de toegevoegde waarde van een Nationaal Agentschap voor Disruptieve Innovatie (NADI). NADI is geïnspireerd op succesvolle internationale voorbeelden zoals DARPA in de VS, ARIA in het Verenigd Koninkrijk en SPRIND in Duitsland. Deze organisaties hebben laten zien dat innovatiegericht inkopen kan leiden tot technologische doorbraken die economie en samenleving ingrijpend veranderen. Denk aan het internet, GPS of mRNA-technologie.40 In plaats van te wachten op marktdynamiek, nemen deze organisaties het initiatief door gerichte innovatieopdrachten te formuleren en publiek-private samenwerking te organiseren rondom strategische uitdagingen in de publieke sector.

NADI werkt met zogenaamde challenge-based programma’s die zijn gericht op concrete publieke opgaven waarvoor de markt nog geen oplossingen biedt. Denk aan quantumcommunicatie, digitale veiligheid, of stikstofreductie, maar ook aan technologische toepassingen binnen het defensie- of ruimtevaartdomein waar overheidspartijen de markt domineren. Binnen deze programma’s wordt gewerkt met tijdelijke teams van topexperts uit kennisinstellingen en het bedrijfsleven. Zij krijgen een helder doel, een beperkt tijdspad en ruimte om te experimenteren. Financiering vindt plaats op basis van technologische en economische mijlpalen.

@stux a limit on daily quests :-) if, after some point, there's simply nothing left to do - they'll quit and return the next day. That way you don't exclude anyone who takes a little longer to complete something 🙃 ah, plenty of ideas I'm sure. I'm confident you'll make something nice if you decide to do it!

@stux knowing you are Dutch, there's a great episode by Lubach on how certain shows for kids are made extra addictive. Considering they do a lot of testing on how to get children addicted, perhaps you could watch the episode and apply the exact opposite to prevent it from happening😁 in a few years time, I would love to introduce my kid to a "proven kid friendly and not addictive" style game.

@positivedinosaur @joeress couldn't agree more! The shows are something to look forward to every week 😁

Mastodon is slowly gaining popularity, but it also attracts bad actors and scammers. Remember that no verification or blue tick mark is for sale on any instance. Similarly, be aware of popular accounts getting cloned in some other cases. As usual, all of these scams have one goal: to steal your information, money, or cryptocurrency, or get you signed up for OF, etc. Stay on guard and report such accounts or instances.

@joeress A man of many talents! It would seem you are also a professional hacker. You've got the terminal to prove it!

@nixCraft first I got excited that it has such a beautiful layout in terminal... then I realised it doesn't run in a terminal. What kind of top application does that?! 😞

@cmccullough You're welcome! They're great :-) I did have some issues with my mailserver not being reachable from time to time. Reached out to them, and they moved the machine to a different host. All good since!

@cmccullough if you want a vps, consider Contabo. They're really cheap, and often have deals that allow you to skip set-up fees

One of my coworkers refers to Open Source as “the most incredible thing humanity has ever accomplished.” When he says that, he’s not making a socioeconomic or political statement, nor is he ignoring technical shortcomings. Rather, he is making an observation about how millions of people have created this immense pile of loosely coupled legos that actually all kind of fit together, without any central direction or fiat authority, with the only final arbiter being user adoption.

Today I learned about sailor.sh, which sets up a realistic #kubernetes exam environment locally, supporting #CKA, #CKAD and #CKS like exams. I'll soon be testing it, but from what I've seen and heard it works really well, neat!

Microsoft marketing: “Your data stays in Europe.”

Microsoft’s Legal Director (under oath, in French Parliament): “No, I cannot guarantee that.”

Still think Microsoft Teams is a sovereign solution?

Last night I spent hours trying to figure out why my rpi zero 2W hates my Unifi APs. Turns out, AI was the reason. Had to turn off 'WiFi AI' in order to turn off the culprit, 'Auto-optimize network'. Goddamnit. #AI #internetofshit

The options WiFi AI and Auto-optimize Network' in the Unifi Controller settings.
