For SpaceX (and possible the others):
Yes it can, since they changed the rules to force over $30 trillion in passive 401k and retirement money to buy SpaceX at IPO valuations.
From https://x.com/Hedgeye/status/2060435253928604065:
"Rule changes for the SpaceX $SPCX IPO:
Index providers waived the profitability requirement and cut the seasoning window from 90 days to 5.
This forces over $30 trillion in passive 401k and retirement money to buy SpaceX at IPO valuations.
Bloomberg Intelligence estimates S&P 500 funds must absorb 19% of SpaceX's float within 6 months.
Russell 1000 and Nasdaq 100 funds will absorb 24%.
The rules built to protect passive investors:
1. S&P 500 has required 12 months of trading and 4 quarters of GAAP profitability since 2002. Both waived.
2. Nasdaq cut its inclusion window from 90 trading days to 15.
3. FTSE Russell cut its to 5.
All three benchmarks are now structured to buy SpaceX at IPO pricing."

* Their nuclear program was obliterated in June 2026, says even the White house (1)
* The worlds leading sponsor of and spender on terrorism (including financial aid to Hamas) is Israel, by a wide margin (2)
* Claims that “thousands” or “tens of thousands” were killed specifically over water protests are not supported by widely accepted evidence
Now I'm wondering which country is a bigger threat to us and peace in general.
A country on the brink of financial collapse, with a severe drought and one of the last remaining opponents of our greatest ally?
Or a country that "provides funding to both Democratic and Republican leadership teams, often supporting over 90% of targeted caucus members" (3) and constantly wants us to fight their wars?

Agreed. Maybe even more dangerous.
Achieving digital sovereignty is imperative for Europe, in any case.

It will be, after the bubble bursts and it will be surprisingly cheap.

Imo most AI compute will happen on-device in the near future.

Public transportation is on a different level and all mayor cities are connected via a high speed rail network.
The latter probably will never happen in the US.

I pay for Youtube premium to not have to see ads and potentially be manipulated by them.
Yet I still have to watch a lot of ads there, since for a large chunk of content creators, the economic model of Youtube doesn’t seem to work and they additionally include inline ads.

Amazing how good eye tracking works on my phone (15 Pro).
Unfortunately, there seems to be no way to press buttons via blinking, only by "dwelling" on an item for a few seconds, which makes using my phone feel quite hectic and prone to to inadvertent inputs to me.

Man this is awesome.
I‘m using a somewhat similar stack for an app in development with a monorepo consisting of a Postgres backend (Rails) + Expo (with Router) + Tamagui + Redux Toolkit. And, as one would expect, it’s been quite a struggle, to say the least.
But currently this is one of the few viable stacks imo for a small team or sole developer to serve both native mobile platforms and the web in a decent quality.
So it’s kind of cool that with One there is now a framework available that brings all those great tools together in a polished and structured way.
Can’t wait to give it a try next week. Could make things a lot smoother.

Banks generally support HBCI standard (in Central/Western Europe)
Thats why using apps like Outbank, that automatically aggregate all your bank accounts data work like a charm in my experience.
