The gift link worked for me, without any other issues but I'm not on my VPN currently. When I am though I get those kinds of issues everywhere, even with endpoints that you'd figure wouldn't be well used. Not sure if that's your issue though, but it's definitely caught me out in the past.

The article addresses this directly, arguing the point that the social safety net has a cost which is what is curtailing the economy in some respect:

For all its economic power, the US has the largest income inequality in the G7, coupled with the lowest life expectancy and the highest housing costs, according to the OECD. Market competition is limited and millions of workers endure unstable employment conditions.

Europe’s social safety net needs to be paid for, warned Christine Lagarde, president of the European Central Bank, in a speech in November. Boosting competitiveness is necessary for long-term prosperity, she argued: “Failure to do so could jeopardise our ability to generate the wealth needed to sustain our economic and social model.”

"Circle to Search is launching January 31 on select premium Android smartphones — the Pixel 8, Pixel 8 Pro and the new Samsung Galaxy S24 series"

Well that's a little disappointing, I was expecting at least 2 generations of Pixel devices would get it. Wonder how long it'll be before it makes its way to other handsets.

What was your stack for doing the fine tuning with your own data? I've been looking around at various different approaches and I think I have a general idea of how to approach it (generating embeddings, putting them in a vector DB, somehow linking that to a useable UI, etc.). Would definitely be keen to understand what your solution looks like though!
