None of what you described is either healthy or tasty. McDonald food is hyper-processed. They add a lot of sugar to a lot of ingredients.

Is the drive-thru pickup or the McDonald the strange idea. Actually, wait, both are strange. That being said, McDonald did know how to do business. I’ve found myself there several times because their spaces are well located and they investe

It's more insidious than that. The US is actively working on dismantling the Swiss off-shore banking system. It started with US clients and expanded from there (see: https://www.privatebankerinternational.com/news/

He is not wrong though a bit off. Discord has 200MAU. So 97% of the global population probably have no idea what Discord is. People massively underestimate the scale of whatsapp/facebook/tiktok (billions of MAU)

My point is, there is a standard for QR payments (I think it's ISO 5201 but it was a long time since I dealt with that). Cross-border support will depend on the country/bank support; but theoretically if everyone adopt it, you

LLMs can traverse codebases and do research faster. But I can see this one backfiring badly as structural slop becomes more acceptable since you can throw an LLM at it an fix the bug. Eventually you'll reach a stage of stasis where you

No one is interested to solve hard problems. The broad industry got lucky with LLMs and everyone is now blindly burning capital at this. If you think they can't be that stupid remember the covid super hiring frenzy.
