> One is a mastermind and the other is a puppet. No, one is a cruel fox and another one is a stupid monkey. Their skills lie mainly in adaptability to the situations they found themselves in and using them, but neither is a mastermind.

I hate this trend wholeheartedly. They even introduce it to schools. I know they have good intentions but this is not how things work. The processes related to one's mind and personal development need to be voluntary and genuine, not s

Paradoxically, it might be the other way round. The Biblical folks were always very superstitious, and this is clearly documented in the Bible even before Christ. Now, what Jesus taught is one thing, but what people created is another one.

I believe people flag it because it's AI slop. I had a look at the article, and even though it makes some valid points, there are buried under a wall of generic text. If I can offer advice, make it more practical and show actual exampl

It might well be, but you don't have any proof of that. In Lithuania it took months of investigations to catch the culprits, analyze all evidence and make that statement. I can imagine in the UK it can take even more.

Yeah, it's clear from how Hetzner Cloud develops. First it was just instances, then they added object storage, and the next services will follow. All this for a fraction of the price of AWS/Azure/GCP.

No surprise, these folks always accuse others of what they themselves. My pet peeve theory is because they're not great thinkers and they just use what they know best.

It is not really a kill switch, just the ability to reprogram the jamming device to adapt to changing Russian radar frequencies. Not really something Ukrainians couldn't do themselves if given opportunity.

I have a different viewpoint. Trump likes to paint himself as a businessman who is a master of a deal and delivers. All these sudden moves with tariffs etc., even if they make no sense, show that he is active and "doing something"

Care to elaborate? The European military industry is getting stronger and stronger, and given the current situation basically all European countries prefer European military supplies to American ones.

I wonder how long it will take for Trump to realize the full impact of his anti-Ukrainian policy. Europe arms itself at a record pace, but the USA is no longer the preferred supplier.

It is. But obviously people do it anyway: https://www.irishtimes.com/news/french-men-s-insecurity-over... The only problem is, after you've done it, and it turns out the child is not yours, you have two problems.

Since their whole pricing strategy depends on users not being able to do RAM and storage upgrades, you can be sure they'd rather make the integration even more tight in the next models.

Destroying NS seemed significant at the time but not anymore - we've drastically reduced dependency on Russian gas so it makes no sense to build/open new infra for that. And even if the war ends, Europeans will be ware of sending
