Same with tradeshows: I have many times been on tradeshows on buildup days. It is a huge mess, full of crates and packaging. Next day, everything is glorious and neat. Just for 3-4 days of 'show'

Also similar: Join a local Toastmasters group. This is a global organization where you learn and practice to speak in front of a group, both prepared speeches and spontaneous. It may find weird to join it, but I would advice to visit one once in your neighborhood: They are all super friendly and I have seen dozens of people come in and move from shy and awkward to great storytellers in just a year or so.

I live in The Netherlands (actually in the same city as the photo's were taken): There is a very large difference in traffic density and complexity between the larger cities such as Amsterdam, Rotterdam, The Hague, Utrecht and the rest of the country (including middle sized cities).

When I visit one of those larger cities, I am also constantly looking for bikes everywhere not to be crashing into me.

I do sleep 8+ hours each night (Netherlands): Up at 7.30, leave at 8.15, 30m commute. Leave work at 5.15, get to sleep around 10.45.

Looks very good on examples, but testing a few Ikea chairs or a Donald Duck image gives very wrong results.

I use nextDNS to block all ads on my iPhone X, works like a charm

Also fun debugging VoIP traffic to the local network, and seeing dns-queries from collegues PCs on the network, then asking them: Are you visiting xyz-webpage, and seeing their reaction!?

Such a great tool and 100% free. Use it often to debug network issues and see where devices connect to. Like someone else said: a multimeter for networks.

Also used it to learn about WiFi connection setup with acces point. Can see all the beacon packets and WiFi packets

I was a very early adopter of Ethereal. My team had a Sniffer PC, but either it was being used by someone else or it didn't adequately decode protocols.

Nice, these are located less than a mile from my home and nicely situated along a stream, just like a bunch of mushrooms in a forest.

They have been around for decades and were an innovation project from an alternative living cooperation in the city (Den Bosch).

I think they are now mostly occupied by students and 30-.

I would add biocyclic vegan farming: Vegatable farming without use of manure or artificial fertilizer. https://www.biocyclic-vegan.org/
