IMO "put LLM everywhere" does look like a bubble. More fundamental things like what OpenAI is doing is probably not, the hype will fade if the progress will slow down, but nobody can tell if it will.

Rheinmetall has been increasing production though. It's just a) getting into this business is hard, so it has limited effect on the rest of the economy b) arming oneself to teeth costs money, which is German budget is pretty low on at

I live in Germany, and while I never used fax as well, I did use paper mail a lot, and I don't know how I would live without a printer and a scanner. It gets better, e.g. taxes have been completely digitized in the recent years, but st

It wasn't, but also Germany's strategic options are limited. US, being its strategic ally, is also its economic rival, and will not hesitate using its advantage of having own energy source. Self-sufficiency solely on renewables is

The only problem with gas is that Germany does not have its own gas. After Russian supply stopped it has to buy it from Azerbaijan, which not only has its own trail of human and civil rights abuse as well as ongoing military aggression, but

The alternative is being a single-issue party which people will only vote for when there is nothing more important on their minds. IMO it is good for a party to have a clear profile on most important issues, and digital rights fit into the

V-Model is a variation of waterfall which is still used in regulated industries (automotive, medical, aerospace etc.) as far as I know.

The alternative to CUDA is called OpenCL. There has been speculations that poor performance of NVIDIA GPUs with OpenCL compared to CUDA is an intentional anticompetitive practice, but I don't feel confident to tell for sure.

Take home is fine if you discuss it later in the interview. But also there should be some pre-screening to keep the number of interviewees reasonable.

Surely it's price discrimination and not the boom of low-cost carriers?

These look like arguments for making price discrimination illegal? I think alternative to making it illegal could be demanding full disclosure to eliminate information disparity. If a company does it, it should make it clear that it does

The audacity! Sure you have nice trains and welfare system, but claiming superiority over Italian coffee culture? I would prefer an espresso made on an Italian gas station at 2AM to a fancy Swedish roastery any time.

It's not always easy to tell artificial bundling from genuine synergies. E.g. due to yet another EU regulation we don't have a proper integration between Google search and Google maps any more, and it definitely feels like a worse

I still have a faint hope that proliferation of AI generated content will make it all so absurd that people will turn back to traditional editorially reviewed content. But I know that's probably too naive - I recently had someone bring

That sounds a bit extreme? True, estimation is hard, but surely we can differentiate between 1-2 day work, 1-2 week work and a big scary project with a lot of risk. That's what T-shirt sizes are for.
