At least Spain has something, UK has something to show for it the numbers are crazy.

Just looked for my order receipt out of curiosity, this was in Jan 23: £160 for Kingston FURY Renegade 32GB (16GB x 2) 6000MT/s DDR5 CL32 DIMM Silver

You pay money to Palantir that money essentially escapes the economy, you develop a sovereign solution yes you pay millions even more but that goes into corporations and people actually living in the country, paying taxes and spending their coins here.

I remember my father built its own personal accounting tool using dbase, I think it was MSDOS at the time, I was a kid. Quite the achievement I think, he was not a software engineer, just hobbyist.

I need to learn how to construct sentences better :(

I switched to xfce since, much better

I hallucinated gnomes after I took medicine they prescribed me at the hospital, following a bike accident.

It's quite obvious they just wanted to punish Anthropic, all this supply chain risk is a joke.

Pair programming is basically continuous code review. You don't take the same path until you discuss and challenge the ideas first. I could argue that code reviews are also lazily done, yes pair programming can be difficult but god reviewing massive PRs, how many times does the attention drops, how many times is it done seriously?

I hope humans in charge are as wise now as they were then.

I'm not scared about AI recommending nuclear strikes, I'm scared about the human behind the keyboard delegating reasoning and responsability to something they think is always correct, something that can hide bias and flaws better than anything.

If it's so cumbersome why don't US companies pull out the EU market? bet they make money anyway don't they

LGTM

One similarity is, if I'm correct, Russia claimed that the naval base of Sevastopol was vital for Russian security.

The protection of the population and the illegitimacy of the current government was an argument developed by Russia at the time, it has not been yet by USA but I suspect this might start develop in the next few weeks.

The common ingredients to justify an invasion/annexation is a mix of: - Self-Defense, security - Historical, Geographical claims - Protection of the population - Moral sugar coating (we had no choice)

I am nowhere advocating to expand executive power in my response.

edit: apologies for not getting your point, I actually think I'm in line. Being able to defend yourself in the US looks too expensive.

That does not make Germany look any better but I find the "percentage on time" not very useful compared to the "years of delay" metric. And arguable a average/median delay per train would be better? Also some delay volatility data would be interesting.

If you look at France for example, 80% of trains are not punctual but the "total delays" is actually on the low range, France being on the large side with lots of lines, I would say that it shows that the delays (20% of the time) are actual shorts.

Nothing is perfect but living in the UK after living in France, I have now a lot more love for SNCF than I used too.

Law is always subject to interpretation and as imperfect as it sounds it is better than no law at all. And I'm not talking about hate speech specifically. Using this as a tool to silence opposition is possible and made easy in countries that do not value and nurture independence of institutions and have rampant corruption, often countries with authoritarian leadership. UK is not exempt of criticism, it would be unhealthy not to, but comparing Russia/Putin with UK/Starmer makes it evident that you are more concerned by pushing a political agenda that by facts and reason.

No there is a thing call the law, those are passed by elected people and applied by a judicial system that is not the executive branch. Hope that helps.

As a tech person the older I get the less tech interests me. Analogical is where I get the fun from, no more smart watch, smart tv, spotify, connected home things, automatic coffee machine, no thank you.

It's such a complicated way to work though, you start another set of changes then you go back addressing comments then you go back updating the stacked branch and you might need to do that few times... Teams should focus on getting stuff merged in and not create massive PRs that live forever, life becomes so much easier.

This is simplistic and I believe wrong. People still go to university because they are passionate and want to learn things, exchange with peers, grow as a person.

Education is not just "buying" a certification to open doors. This part I'm happy to get rid off.

I had a quick chat with him at a conference in Munich and I thought he was pretty chill, but I think it was 15y ago.

How is that better than a ValueListenable/ValueListenableBuilder?

I love my iPhone 12 mini, the screen has great pixel density better than the 16 or 17 even. It is compact and light, easy to put in and out of the pocket. The battery is not great and the peak luminosity could be better, but it still runs so well in 2025. I've been contemplating buying a new one since the back glass is shattered and the front is scratched, the battery is also getting worse. I don't think it's viable now to get it fixed.

So I might reluctantly grab one of the new ones.

Damn, that's medieval. Anyone should be able to challenge anyone regardless of status.

I'm the 0.1% scourge. I've been flying Ryanair for 10 years and I always told myself I'll change my (very slightly off chart) cabin bag the first time they fine me. Also it always fits and it never caused delay as far as I'm aware.

This might be a sign of things to come, the quality of the virtual world is decreasing at record speed, that's opening the door to a return to the analogical world - aka books in your case.

If you are technical enough to care you'll find the info in 1 min. If you are not technical enough you won't even know what to do with the info.
