That depends. I know first hand a local bureaucrat who bought a piece of land designated as forest and a year later that forest got designated as construction area (or whatever the English term is) making that land worth at least 10x as much. And who was the person who changed that designation? A colleague of theirs in the office next doors. Quite a nice retirement gift. And those people are small fishes in a very small local community. One can only imagine how things are done on a larger scale.

I don’t understand why the Max version doesn’t have C2. Maybe supply constraints but I doubt it.

You’ve projected the best outcome, but there are worse outcomes than that. They can proclaim it’s a major crisis and suspend elections indefinitely. Wars follow and those frigging suck to put it nicely.

On a recommendation of a friend we started using Finish Oxi Action in the washer when the odor is detected. Fitness clothing which we were ready to throw away was like new afterwards. Hope it helps.

There are some editions of their models which don't have any of those labels and they look much better. But I think they never went far enough, and design a good looking digital g-shock with big time and date, nothing else. When I was younger, small time display was fine, but now as someone with presbyopia (like any 40+ adult) those digits are just too small.

As one of the most openly corrupted Croatian politician is Von Der Leyen's commissioner, it tells me all I need to know about her choices and influence.

I've seen them in action in my previous company. They've butchered it, the best talent left, and the company is the shell of itself. And all because workers disagreed with a "RTO" mandate and wanted to continue working remote. The company was remote first since day one, but the new CEO wouldn't have it so he hired those abominable lawyers.

Honest question, what there is to steal from a car what was left on the parking lot? Especially on an airport where I assume everyone flies off with their luggage and leave nothing or nothing of value behind.

Fingerprinted once 12 years ago, never again. Traveled on ESTA.

> Come to think of it, seems China is the only country so far (in modern times) that haven't abused their military to enforce their will on smaller countries

Philippines would disagree with this one.

As a person who started lifting weights in my young age of 40 something, and doing it for a bit over 2 years consistently, I'll add that your muscles absolutely fucking love it. Seeing something which is a round skin and bone turn into angular muscle and tendon mass is intoxicating and a great morale booster. I just wish I have started earlier which probably would have saved me for going to two ugly spine surgeries.

I really enjoyed TA back in the day. And I still remember the fantastic music background which dynamically changed if you went into battle. Starcraft was released after and it looked so ancient compared to TA in my view. But all my friends played SC at the time so it took over.

I got a worrying one: a day after getting opus 4.8, I tasked CC to add specific TXT records to our subdomain.example.com as per ticket I've received. CC has access to that ticket via Atlassian MCP, and started doing terraform code changes in a local git branch. Somewhere along the way it said that to do that it needs an approval from a company's VP (ticket requester) as "subdomain.example.com" is critical (it isn't). Then it refused to open a pull request, immediately deleted the local git branch along with all the changes and refused to proceed without evidence of approval from that VP. No amount of explaining, then pleading, and then threatening moved it. It was surreal and I was shocked and frankly pissed. It was amusing in the end because the day earlier it had no problem adding those same TXT records to example.com. Codex did those changes in 1/4 of time and no complaining.

I can't stop having vivid, and mostly bad dreams with it making me tired the next day. I guess I should switch to something else.

Mismanaging your household finances can ruin your livelihood and you might end up on the street.

Mismanaging a company which you didn’t build won’t ruin your livelihood. It might of the employees. It may weight heavy on your conscience but we’ve heard enough of those “I take full responsibility” phrases that we know how heavy is that.
