We visited for free this amazing cave. I think it has the tallest formation of stalactites in the world. 32 meters.
There are people in these photos if you look carefully :D
In this care there were people living some 25.000 years ago. Nuts! And cave hyenas. And they discovered cave paintings there that could be the oldest in all human species history, some 42.000 years ago made by Neanderthals. But still they need to confirm this.

This is me down there...
Mind blowing experience. You have to visit this cave if you can. Put it on your bucket list. The photos do no justice to how amazing the experience was. And from 9:30 every day they provide free tickets if you manage to book them.
Fantastic!
Of course we will make a video about this for our TROMhome channel - videos.trom.tf/c/tromhome/vide…

Designing AI-Resilient Assessments in Online and Distance Education
As generative AI tools become more embedded in everyday academic life, detection is no longer enough.
In my latest blog post, I argue for a shift in how we think about assessment—especially in online and distance education. It's time to move beyond reactive measures and design assessments that are resilient, meaningful, and pedagogically grounded.

This was a bit of a weird place with way too much garbage and too many garbage bins (that were strangely empty), but otherwise a very nice view from our main window! :)

Vijf miljoen demonstranten tegen Trump's fascistische coup. We zouden er hoop van moeten krijgen!
Maar Nederlandse media hadden het slechts over "duizenden" die iets tegen "bezuinigingen" zouden hebben, en begroeven het nieuws.
Dan Le Pen's demonstratie'tje tegen de wet die ze zelf aannam. Volgens de NOS was dat een hoofd item! Er waren ook daar "duizenden" (dwz 7k ipv 5 miljoen) en men demonstreerde volgens de NOS ter verdediging van... "de democratie".
Het absolute shitnieuws wordt juist weer begraven.
Dat het Hooggerechtshof Trump's illegale deportaties naar een concentratiekamp door laat gaan: niet belangrijk volgens veel Nederlandse media.
Dat ook in Nederland zowel extreemrechtse regering als dito parlement de aanval heeft geopend op kennis en onderwijs, universiteiten, NTR en onafhankelijke media... En op trans, precies zoals in de VS, precies volgens Project2025... Dat wordt nergens zo benoemd.

This was a creepy place - videos.trom.tf/w/2pDZA7QkdP7QN…
We ended up in a place that was used for cultish rituals (aka: religion). Tens of big trash bins, lots and lots of garbage, fire pits...and signs about "virgins". Except that, the place was quiet and still ok 😃.

Gave #vibecoding a try. I'm surprised at how easy it is, even if the end result is a little rough around the edges.

Made a static html Discord/irc style #nostr client. Seems to work decent unless you're in vertical mode on mobile.
