  • I simply use Joplin subnotebooks. I have one for home cooking and one for brewing beer. Markdown works well enough for me in terms of portability and readability. It also syncs between my devices, so I have several copies of my recipes.

    For home brewing, I have written a few scripts that convert BeerXML to Markdown for easy importing. I create the recipes in my home brewing software (currently Kleiner Brauhelfer), export the BeerXML file and convert it to Markdown for secondary storing.






  • Here’s a truly unpopular opinion: the book series Game of Thrones is overrated. Up until part three, the series was fun. The pacing was good, the story was compelling and the climax of the third part (not giving away any spoilers…) was as good an ending as one could expect. Then part four started with an entirely new set of characters, totally ignoring the current story and disrupting the pace. After slogging through that part, the fifth part was utterly forgettable. If there is (or will be) a sixth part, I will skip it.





  • Judging by your user name, I’ll assume that you speak Dutch. The Heineken factory in Den Bosch is near the Brabanthallen. For context: this is a huge congress hall (or rather: a complex of several halls) that used to be a cattle market. I once went there a few days after a large cattle market. You could still smell the cow piss. To this day I still maintain that it is no coincidence that the Brabanthallen and the Heineken factory are so close to each other. :-)
