Vooral Nijmeegse internationals richten bedrijf op https://www.utoday.nl/news/65688/vooral-nijmeegse-internationals-richten-bedrijf-op

@bencomp @suzan @arjenpdevries @arjenpdevries Echt waar? In 2009 veranderde de UT tijdelijk van top-level domein. De gevolgen waren enorm: onvindbaar in Google voor veel queries, uit de Alexa top, etc. Toentertijd een kleine column over geschreven: http://wwwhome.cs.utwente.nl/~hiemstra/2009/verhuisd.html

@beeldbank @arjenpdevries We have more but I made a small selection to upload here. For the beeldbank of the UT I also uploaded a picture of 1975 when Ebenhaëzer just started sailing again and went to SAIL Amsterdam.

@beeldbank @arjenpdevries For Arjan, here are some pictures of EH on campus/heading to the campus. I can only upload 4 at a time so stay with me: more are coming.

There are 2 main rivaling programs to handle your scientific references. One is free/libre software (#Zotero), the other is not (#Mendeley). Guess which one you should use?

Hint: if you use the closed source one, it will encrypt your article-database and not give you the possibility to decrypt and export it.

Onderwijsraad: kijk verder dan alleen Engels als onderwijstaal https://www.utoday.nl/news/65539/onderwijsraad-kijk-verder-dan-alleen-engels-als-onderwijstaal

Here's a version of the block list you can dump in your nginx to get rid of the bots:

https://gist.github.com/patf/1ae99fdd15718483fc15b1e8c8f25fe2#file-naughty_list_nginx-conf

The advantage of using nginx here instead of your firewall/iptables is that you'll have an easier time checking for false-positives in logs (in case I fucked up); the bots follow a predictable pattern (GET / then GET /auth/sign_up) while real traffic would stand out.
