Lawyers?

This! They won't sell in big numbers. Parking these huge vehicles in Europe will be nearly impossible.

Americans would need to send over engineers, architects, and builders who follow the "bigger is better" philosophy.

I'm waiting for the moment when we'll tease someone who can't manoeuvre their truck when it simply doesn't fit.

Investments can never be identical for everyone, but in my case I switched my assets from an MSCI World to an MSCI World ex USA.

For the U.S. market portion I adopted a more complex strategy based on factor / smart-beta investing (making sure that none of the top holdings include AI-related companies).

This isn’t just a problem specific to German academia, it extends across the entire European academic landscape.

I've always wondered why professors and supervisors, after experiencing these abuses themselves, continue to perpetuate them.

The only explanation I've come up with is that the system naturally weeds out those who resist or speak up by stalling their careers. As a result, it selects for individuals who don’t make trouble, those who passively obey and endure even the worst forms of dysfunction.

In the end, this leads to the normalization of abuse, with people rationalizing it as "if I went through it, others should too", a way to protect their own ego.

The only thing even worse is when the abuse turns passive-aggressive: denying opportunities without ever saying it outright, hostility disguised as kindness, ambiguous and demoralizing feedback, delaying responses, making people miss crucial deadlines, assigning pointless or overwhelming tasks. They excel at this too.

If I ever had children, I would never let them attend a European university.

> their interface is not nearly as bad as GCP / AWS

Underrated.

Until recently, all the features were grouped in a very clear manner within the dashboard. Now, even Cloudflare is complicating its management interface, but they still have a long way to go before reaching the level of confusion of AWS and GCP.

> But the current structure of defense funding makes this nearly impossible. VC-backed defense startups aren't the answer either. They're making the same mistakes - small compute, off-the-shelf models, requiring relocation from experienced 40+ year old scientists who won't move. They're essentially just spending the money the government can't, without solving the fundamental issues.

Have you tried to express your perplexities to one of the DARPA PMs?

Theoretically, a significant part of their work should precisely consist of receiving feedback on the mistakes made in order to iterate more quickly toward effective solutions.

> The CFAA[1][2] is an arcane and ancient piece of legislation that could use an overhaul, especially with some of the vague language it contains.

I imagine that this is the reason why the charge is "unlawful transfer of confidential phone records", which is something much more specific.

From PACER, it's also stated that he filled out the CJA23 financial affidavit to demonstrate his inability to afford a lawyer (it's quite something to get caught like this and not even manage to earn enough to pay for a lawyer).

Additionally, "the defendant waives the rights provided by Rule 5 and/or Rule 32.1 of the Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure" means that he is choosing to streamline the initial procedures and is waiving supervised release or probation, suggesting that the prosecution's case is strong and that he is opting for an expedited process.

> Cloudflare does mostly use the browser's properties to determine if a manual check should be done

Cloudflare uses the threat score of each IP address as a signal to determine whether additional checks are necessary. A shared IP address is more likely to be associated with "issues", such as a compromised IoT device being used for DDoS attacks, one of your neighbours spamming a forum, ...
