Yes, but I think they need some in North America for latency reasons.

I was wondering if a solution to the NIMBYs is to just put the data centres in other countries like Mexico? I understand it would be hard to have talent move there, though. I mean, this sounds so obvious, but I haven’t heard much discourse around it yet so I’m not sure how feasible it is.

It’s much worse: they created Matrix.

Because, like with other subscriptions, most people don’t use even half of it.

That is completely true and fascinates me. If you go to any city centre, train station, etc. in Europe, you will find lots of black people just... doing nothing. They are just there, sitting, perhaps alone, perhaps many of them. They aren't even talking or doing anything, they just stare into the distance. They are part of the scenery. I have no idea what this means, who brought them here, what they actually do (if anything), and who's going to take them away (and when).

There is nothing unjust about being expelled from society when you are found to be too damaging.

What is unjust, though, is to be the victim of criminals who benefit from knowing exactly what the threshold is to not being removed from society.

> an astonishingly large number are attributed to a tiny, tiny number of people.

That sounds like something that would be extremely easy to fix!

That’s cool until the EU decides that they’ve had enough of poor people driving their own cars and introduce tariffs or outright ban them. Then, how are you going to have them repaired? Maybe they even make it so that you can’t pass inspection with a Chinese car.

Which doesn't mean most people can afford them - I live in Europe and I've yet to see an ID.4 myself.

I have no idea what this has to do with the topic at hand. What does KYC from Hetzner have to do with Wirecard? Do you mean to say that you suspect that Russia is behind Hetzner?

We are all NIMBY when we get the results we want.

We hate NIMBYs when others get what they want.

That’s life I guess.

I want the opposite. I suffer from astigmatism, which makes white on black hard to read. I wish Safari could turn dark mode websites into light mode websites.

Barcelona has a big problem with a lack of development and mass migration. Has little to do with Airbnb although it’s a good scapegoat.

Whether the AI summaries are harmful to users of Search has no bearing on whether the AI summaries are an abuse of monopoly power.

Is this what they mean when they talk about accountability laundering?

Oh, you see, we had the best security ever, but they used AI agents, and there's no defence for that, you can't secure a system against those spooky AI agents.
