they did not end where they started, not even close, so it's not the ideal path, cause now you still need to walk the mower to the shed. and that's why some people are more efficient than others.

their ideal path leaves you at the other side of the yard.


> higher wages than Europe and lower taxation rates.

ah yes live to work. Not work to live right?


> employment earns 7 sick days

ugh, "sick days", what an absurd concept. If you are too unwell to work, you don't go to work , of course, and get paid while at home, until you're healed. Not 7 days, not 2 days, just the amount of days required. putting a number on that. ugh

and 11 vacation days. Wauw. After a decades of working in Europe you can get a good amount of holidays. in 2025 I had 49 day of which 20 are that minimum you start out with. Every overtime and outside business hour call also gets recovered, that's an extra 3 days so we've passed 50.

but what else is new, in the 80 and 90s workers in US were boasting about doing 80hrs of work each week... like wtf :). They live to work, I prefer to work to live life.


> Software Homogenization and Interface Uniformity

how is this a negative? I would say, please do more like ugreen and support alternative OS, provide drivers and integrations.


how many none battery electric vehicles are out there that we could confuse EV with that the B is required in that name....


>But this system is probably tied to Google and Apple's "device attestation."

any banking app for the last 20 years has basically been available only on google and apple devices, (none jailbroken, none rooted) to do proper attestation. So how this different...


> It's not like iDeal where you can just use your bank's regular login method to pay; this requires making a big tech account to download some app where maybe it then works if it likes your device.

in Belgium wero doesn't need any "big tech account" or whatever that means. it's natively build into banking apps , eg: https://www.kbc.be/retail/en/products/payments/self-banking/... https://www.bnpparibasfortis.be/en/public/individuals/daily-... etc

and since BNP is french, most likely for France peeps same (i)deal


no worries, then they'll just ship those products through one the other members of the EU

>The European Union allows goods to move freely between the 27 countries in the economic bloc, which would complicate any bid to impose trade restrictions on a single member state. Src: https://www.bbc.com/news/articles/c8r1mzd8vygo


did he call Qwen a SOTA model?


No, he’s running GLM 5.2, which is closer to SOTA.


It can be considered SOTA within is size category. Very useful for many things. You still want access to big models, I recommend OpenCode Go if you want to stay with open models.


I would say Antrophic and others illicitly extracted free internet content and put it behind a paywall, giving zero compensation to those that made their whole business possible in the first place. So smallest violin player busy here trying to make me care if it happens to them.
