I'm pretty sure there should be english announcements. Maybe they were broken. You also get this information via the displays on the wagons and on the screens inside. There is a bus/train from Freising to the airport every 10 min that takes 15min, so you are not trapped there for hours. Google maps also has all the public transport connections available for navigation. That it does not support certain things like train splits or instant train changes is not DBs problem.

The preferred way to get to the airport is via S8 (not S1). Idk how one could push/guide people more to take this one. S8 does not split and it definitely has announcements in english. They also prioritize keeping S8 running above anything else.

I'd also recommend buying tickets via app, not via ticket machines.

We cannot even guess what the timeline would be. This is why it is insane to invest in it and expect a positive return in usual investing horizons.

And it imitates all the unimportant bits perfectly (like spelling, grammar, word choice) while failing at the hard to verify important bits (truth, consistency, novelty)

The autonomous drones fighting in the next war (let's hope not...).

On one of the latest Odd lots episodes finally an analyst had an investment thesis that made sense to me:

They think they are building an AI god.

If you think of it in religious terms it suddenly makes sense. Expected rate of return? One scenario has has infinite expected return (some kind of pascals wager/mugging)!

Of course there will be no AGI. Just a planet we'll have to live on where those deluded idiots wasted our resources on some boondoggle. Maybe this kind of concentration of power is a bad thing? I think we are going to get to those kind of questions once the party is over.

Yeah, but they are also financing the gold miners.

Also, what to do with the shovels that are not sold if there are no buyers?

Yeah, the latest thing is the the 20 billion $ Argentina bailout (or Bessents hedge fund buddies exit liquidity).

20 billion ... gone.

Another 15 billion will go to soybean farmers to bail them out. And so on.

This went through the court system and it found that the "raid" was not appropriate and unlawful.

Mistakes happen and get corrected. Doesn't mean there is a systemic issue.

So it is regulatory arbitrage. I think many of the critics never contested that crypto is good for doing crime. The critics just also think that either those crimes should continue to be prevented via the financial system or the financial system should be deregulated for all without a crypto backdoor.

A Money Market Fund gives you interest if you are able to access it.

This is kind of a pattern:

1. There is some regulation that is inefficient ( e.g. taxi medallions, KYC, copyright protection ...)

2. New technology comes about which allows startups to claim that they have invented a new area that should be regulated differently

3. Turns out (2) is not true and new technology can easily be mapped to existing regulation but it would look bad for the regulator to take away the punchbowl

4. There is some down-turn (bubble pops) and the regulator takes away the punchbowl OR investors have accumulated so much money/power that they corrupt the government to have new rules for their businesses

Looking at recent threads on the forums: No.

I do handle annoying feature requests on my open source project by just ignoring them.

I thought it was starting when Ilya said that scaling has plateaued about a year ago. Now confirmed with GPT-5. Now they'll need to sell a pivot from AGI to productization of what they already have with a valuation that implies reaching AGI?
