    Good morning ~bartender, had a nice sleep?

    Second time in Brussels for Fosdem, second time in a bnb with steps so short it's difficult to climb frontally.

  • the books of Alice Miller

    Few thinkers have had as big an impact on me as Alice Miller (1923-2010), a Polish-Swiss-French psychologist. She started out as a Freudian psychoanalyst, but moved away from Freud's theories and started to focus on childhood trauma. She was a radical advocate for the child and for the inner child of every adult.

    More than 40 years later, her work is still radical and extremely relevant (sadly). This is my attempt at a guide to her work.

  • Technology Connections talks about solar and then goes nuclear

    Yes, the Technology Connections [1] video “You are being misled about renewable energy technology [2]” is long, but like all his videos, they're worth watching for the indepth reporting he does on what otherwise might sound rather mundane. Here, he talks mostly about solar power, but the last third is, in my opinion, when he goes nuclear, needs to be watched.

  • Gems of the week

    It's been a busy week and I've gathered quite a lot of gems that I want to feature here. Some of these aren't new and might be old news to some people, but I want to feature them anyway because you never know who might benefit from discovering these.
