It's Shitty Saturday, what are we doing?

[fenixmaster@mastodon.social]

@Gina Het is het kantoor van mijn vrouw, maar we zijn beiden met pensioen, dus ik noem haar kantoor mijn hobbyruimte. Dat geeft nog wel eens wrijving.

[sybren@fosstodon.org]

@Gina upgrading my MeshCore devices!

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@sybren That actually sounds fun.

[not_a_label@toot.lgbt]

@Gina sadly I have to be on it as I'm apparently important and would be missed... ‍️

[falkheiland@fosstodon.org]

@Gina "Belastingdienst" is one of those (for a German) funny dutch words.

[daniel_bohrer@chaos.social]

@falkheiland @Gina I think it's very fitting. A German would probably say it's very "belastend" (burdensome) to declare their taxes

[gina@fosstodon.org]

Jup, the worst.

My 2 braincells versus sentences like "Was the corrected value more than 10% greater than the value in economic circulation of this property on 01-01-2024? [?]"

[gina@fosstodon.org]

I have 2 masters degrees and I can confidently say that I'm too dumb for this.

@belastingdienst why are you like this?

[daniel_bohrer@chaos.social]

@Gina it's not you, it's the system

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@daniel_bohrer And I'm like the easiest case there is. No kids, no partner, no business. I don't know how people do their taxes themselves.

[mndell@mastodon.social]

@Gina @belastingdienst let AI reason the favorable outcome?

[gina@fosstodon.org]

@Mndell @belastingdienst Ah we have great experience with letting algorithms assess people's taxes in the Netherlands.

Dutch scandal serves as a warning for Europe over risks of using algorithms

The Dutch tax authority ruined thousands of lives after using an algorithm to spot suspected benefits fraud — and critics say there is little stopping it from happening again.

@Gina it's the same in Germany. When using the official website provided by the state, for the first few years I had to google even after reading every single of their "help" texts. No wonder there are third-party software providers out there who you can pay to essentially give you better help texts, I bet it's easy money for them

[tsvenson@fosstodon.org]

@Gina

Did taxes 4 days ago. It took a whopping 3 minutes

Today watching the race around Nordschleife, Liverpool is soon kicking of and while also coding stuff.

@Gina Patiently waiting for posts about the one interesting thing in your day tbh

[strght@mastodon.social]

@Gina @belastingdienst

Different country, same shit (D). Complexity shall pretend social equality. It is not. They don’t understand that they’ve stopped thinking half way.

@Gina mooi spul dat proxmox

[martijn_geerdes@mastodon.social]

@Gina @belastingdienst ontworpen door econometristen, voor econometristen.

@schoentoon Welp, I'm about to install Proxmox and then a few K8 clusters.
