Yup that's a variation of the general 'deliver a hugely inefficient solution first, then iterate' tactic. Keeps multiple people employed much longer than a little (debatably) "premature" optimisation ahead of time,

Maybe the problem is the MBAs and letting them run your company? Surely AI could do a better job than most MBAs? The knowledge requirement is lower, the reasoning and analytical capability lower, just learn a few frameworks and glib vacuou

Major Cloud providers would still need to invest eu-customer money in providing eu IT services, this is more a legal, security and privacy isolation for big tech players in order to maintain their share, extract royalties etc. Startups that

Honestly how hard can it be given Microsoft size (and AWS, and Google's) to mandate the intervention of a EU corporate entity to manage their IP in the region, full source code, EU cloud assets, encryption keys, EU-only support access,

You did not answer the question. Its irrelevant who Shea is or what you assume about his circumstances, if the evidence discussed is well-sourced. Which reported evidence in the Shea report are you contending is false (or not asserted in c

They can be used to concurrently overwhelm air defences to improve the odds for more expensive cruise missiles. Ukraine has used small drones to decent effect tactically to disable vehicles, and vice versa (less effectively)

Bingo. This would appear to be a ludicrous waste of public money. Useless planes built by a competitor/potential adversary that can't be refueled, designed to carry bombs the UK won't have full control of, at a time when the

We (the EU) should have a reasonable response for monopolistic or significant market share suppliers that may fall under the control of foreign governments that could mitigate this issue. Else I noted: (the EU) doesn't need to throw ou

It doesn't need to throw out the baby with the (US-controlled) bathwater. The EU should present Microsoft with an ultimatum similar to what China might: setup a non-controlled european licensee to own and manage all MS & Azure infr

If you have much more speed in the available time, for an activity like coding, you could use that for iteration, writing more tests and satisfying them, especially if you can pair that with a concurrent test runner to provide feedback. I&#

cf bait and switch, pervasive moral hazard of poorly regulated markets, and I include major stock exchanges in that. Anyone can sell anyone an attractive lie (and this goes beyond economics to include e.g. voter preferences), but that is no

The only healthy "middle-ground" with secure communication is fully secure, non-negotiable. The fact that some criminal enterprises can use it and aren't trivially exposed to random searches/fishing trips isn't wort

That would be a more correct sentiment to apply to anything the IDF says, given the number of times it has been caught lying. Even by the BBC, which as an institution (brave reporters aside), have been anything but even-handed in their sele

Given JPM's complicity in a number of obvious pump and dump frauds, particularly in sell-side "analysis" if you can call it that, I think its somewhat churlish and clearly unfair to allow it access to the legal system to defe

On the whole though, B2B sales (as this would be) are generally much more rational than consumer emotive/fantasy-driven marketing and sales. Its not like perfume sales. There are usually several people who hold each other to account an

The ability of LLMs to replicate MBA CEO-speak and the kinds of activities the C-suite engage in is arguably superior to their ability to write computer programs and displace programmers, so on a replicated-skills basis LLMs should pose a g

Arguably they should, there probably would be a (huge) price premium for that insurance to be worthwhile, and it would also represent the former externality that the nuclear lobby like to forget about when comparing apples & oranges of

But in an emergency is it impossible for aircraft to land in the opposite direction? That's what happened at Muan; the concrete structure was only present if the plane landed against the normal approach.

There are such a thing as tariffs. I think it makes sense that we both improve our local environment and adopt a carrot/stick approach to businesses in other localities that do/don't do the same. Same environmental standards

The Guardian was a reasonably good source of news under Rubsbridger, under Viner its biases have worsened and its most courageous reporters, opinion writers and even cartoonists have been either sidelined or fired. Avoid.
