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.
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.
If one must point fingers, a better target is those actually in power.
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.
It should’ve been at least 450 euro equivalent even in 1990, using 2024 value euros.
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.
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.
You bring up good points, but I don't think that company naming has to be 100% proof against confusion, it's just one more helpful thing for consumers to identify whom they are doing business with.
In the case of close names like "Barkley", if they're doing banking, there is probably a trademark case against if they actually use it to confuse customers.
Intrestingly enough, "Barkley Holdings" was registered by competing bank HSBC: https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/c...
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.
