Consider that perhaps the person you're responding to really does treat Russian and the US equally... by continuing to import goods from both, and use technology or services from both countries.

Many people in Europe eat Russian fish, warm their houses with Russian natural gas, use American SaaS, and fill their houses with goods made in China.

That doesn't mean they support everything those countries do.

It does mean their solution for nation-state level conflicts isn't a total embargo of the country.

The non-Russian portion of the company doesn't include the search engine technology.

I don't really see any difference between this and the vast amounts of of Alaska pollock or cod that is imported from Russia.

I felt that this was an indication that OpenCV had finally discovered SemVer.

Cmon, even famous virtuosos still have to go through a period of being children without fine motor control.

I won’t argue about the obviousness as that’s a tarpit of comparing each others social circles, but let say it’s reasonable to assuming this wasn’t his first ever brush stroke to touch canvas.

I don’t see what’s wrong with someone wanting to return to their home country instead of staying and risking a middle of the night policy change resulting in their residency status being cancelled and ICE dragging them and their children out of bed at night.

If one must point fingers, a better target is those actually in power.

On the other hand, you can’t develop a technology if you have no knowledge of its inner workings.

This is an issue the US finds itself in now as it tries to onshore manufacturing again after allowing someone else to play middle man for decades.

Yes, the US has plenty of capital resources but that doesn’t directly translate into production when you have to setup not just a single factory but an entire supply chain.

The were making 8.5 per hour which above the 2026 youth wage.

They also are relating a story from their past and since they have had an account since 2015, I am assuming their youthful past was at least 1 decade ago if not nearly 20 years ago.

They have but it does feel like they are developing a closed platform aka Apple.

Apple has shortcuts, but they haven’t propped it up like a standard that other people can use.

To contrast this is something you can use even if you have nothing to do with Claude, and your tools created will be compatible with the wider ecosystem.

Corporate punishments can be applied on a fine grain. Every store, every instance, every choice becoming a 10k fine can rapidly make even relatively rare acts untenable as a cost of doing business.

I think it is. The irony is that the people you hired to help make your machine seem human are seen as mechanical because of their distinct and uniformly sophisticated tone. Thus we have a situation that’s contrary to expectations.

In many countries, company names are unique to that country. And combined with country TLDs controlled by the nation-state itself, it'd be possible for at least barclays.co.uk to be provably owned by the UK bank itself when a EV cert is presented by the domain.

In the US though, every state has it's own registry, and names overlap without the power of trademark protection applying to markets your company is not in.
