Setting a standard in Europe? What’s France doing then?

This isn’t a bad thing? Kids nowadays have the attention span of puppies. It’s been shown extensively that doomscrolling, switching context every 30s isn’t good for the brain.

No, that was an exaggeration. The prompt was decent. I explained the point of the repository, that I wanted full coverage with tests, that it could keep going until it worked. Maybe that was still not enough. With how others talk about it, I must be missing something.

I'm so happy someone else says this, because I'm doing exactly the same. I tried to use agent mode in vs code and the output was still bad. You read simple things like: "We use it to write tests". I gave it a very simple repository, said to write tests, and the result wasn't usable at all. Really wonder if I'm doing it wrong.

Damn, that’s a pretty disappointing statement. Some parts are correct but then he goes completely overboard. After everything that has been happening the past year with the new administration it’s hard to keep supporting this as a European.

Will move our startup from Cloudflare.

They can always chose not to sell their products and services in the EU if they don't want to comply with the laws here.

I found it quite badly written, and have no clue what they actually did and what the impact was. We exposed money flows, and now potholes are being filled. What?

Maybe I read it to quickly, but what they are doing is quite complex. The medium he's using to explain it might not be the best one for his skillset.

Isn’t it that the current market price of NVDA was based on the amount of chips they need to sell? Because to train and run models you need so many GPU’s. Now that deepseek is showing you need less GPU’s to train and run it, the value of NVDA lowers since they won’t sell as much.

We had the same issue, but it was over by 10-20% in our case. Discussed this with them multiple times, and the last response I got was:

"I've checked in with our engineering teams, and we unfortunately don't yet have a fix or timeline to share here, though we have made additional progress on scoping a path forward. It's extremely complex on our end, as existing data models don't have the required information in place to make the change here, and we'd need to scope how to add that and backfill data (which we're approaching, but again, no timeline to share as of now)."

Obviously I don't know anything about them internally, but if I can export the data as a CSV-file, and then calculate the MRR myself in GSheets, then what data needs to be backfilled? The data is already available to properly calculate it.

As others have said, you'll need to talk to him. And focus on what does he want, and what does he think is fair. He can't expect to keep his share of the company, while also bailing on you, but most people don't think like this anyway. If your working relation was good, and he wants the company to succeed, he won't play hardball. Which means that you also don't need to get into the conversation with your guard up. Just talk to him, and be a decent human being.

I agree that saying “Microsoft did it already” is a silly response to something that is just a positive to gaming. But your example of Nintendo doesn’t really mean anything when Nintendo didn’t put a lot of effort in supporting disabled people the last generations.

I applaud Nintendo for doing this for the NES, but where are they today?

Everything Microsoft did with Xbox long before Sony?

If we focus purely on the console gaming market, Microsoft did a lot for disabled people. Multiple different controllers and systems were released this generation.

That’s a pretty naive way to look at it. A lot of patented products have a positive impact on the world, should all of these be shared?

What if a small player tries to break into a market with a nee solution? They should give away their IP to the big player purely because it has a positive impact on the world?

Just because their product is more safe doesn’t mean they automatically have to share this with everyone. They put time and a lot of effort into this, and that should be rewarded. The world rewards people with money. Sure some people might be happy with knowing they saved more lives, but eventually most people just want to be rewarded.
