Yeah, sure, I'll ditch my Apple Silicon MBP and switch to MNT Pocket Reform for all my computing. So I don't have ugly Liquid Glass.

And where are they now (cigarette companies)?

I have seen indeed a trailer overtake its truck. Not a beautiful view.

Wait till you marry. She will make you play infinite number of games!

Seems it's Recharts.

In fact, in many spa towns you have already local taxes, e.g. "climate surcharge" where you actually pay as a tourist for the clean air. Usually it's a local tax that is added on top of your hotel bill.

Exactly! I run it on my old T7910 Dell workstation (2x 2697A V4, 640GB RAM) that I build for way less than a $1k. But so what, it's about ~2 tokens / s. Just like you said, it's cool that it's run at all, but that's it.

Oh, I hoped it's about nuclear weapons. Pitty, it's not. Now, as US is slowly leaving NATO, European countries should urgently work on increasing their nuclear capabilities, developing strategic and tactical nuclear weapons and means of delivery (rockets, bombers, submarines).

Yeah, I meant cars made for US market from US brands. True, that Ford is US brand with strong European presence, but I think the model line is quite different. Jeeps getting more popular in EU, since it's part of Stellantis now (company headquartered in EU), but has engines for European market etc.

Yes, it's much worse than 2003. Back then, multiple NATO countries took part in the invasion of Iraq, as US invoked Article 5. Now, 22 years later US is saying "f... o..".

In the first term Trump was unprepared, now they had 4 years to prepare and it seems they are very methodical in dismantling US global influence, and but also dismantling structures internally.

As far as I'm worried about security of Europe or Far East allies (Japan, SK, Taiwan, Philippines), I'm worried about future of US itself.

There's already 10% tariff on cars from US imported into Europe. But somehow I have feeling that even if it would be reduced to 0%, it wouldn't make a big difference Cars of US brands are generally terrible, not sure how they fulfill EU emission standards, have poor MPG which with EU gas prices are very expensive in maintenance. Maybe Japanese, Korean or EU brands manufactured US could do better.

3 sales representatives, each sending 20 cold emails per day. Yeah, it should be 3 * 20.

The city of Cracow in Poland banned billboards (and other visual advertising quite aggressively) about 2 years ago. Great outcomes. There are still some workarounds that companies do to put this s..t out in the public (e.g. covers of renovation works can contain up to 50% of advertising area, so we have renovations of just finished buildings only to put the covers with ads). Now, when I visit another city when there's no such ban I cannot stand this visual garbage. This should be banned everywhere.

I hope so. We were considering migration from on premise to AWS or GCP. Did a couple of simulations, went with renewing hardware for our on premise. It was the right choice. Storage alone is almost 3 times more expensive on cloud, compared to a netapp appliance with financing... Stil using GCP for couple of use cases (e.g. BigQuery, Vertex), some backup infra, but 95% works on our hardware in rented racks.
