Yes, that's basically accurate. Since the end of the Cold War, Germany has always taken the cheapest possible military option in order to fund their precious social programs and treated the military as just another government jobs program. While I think the current US administration's moves to cut off our allies are deeply stupid and the moral equivalent of treason, Germany has only itself to blame for creating such a dependency. Alliances are always temporary and now Germany will have to face reality.
Sadly, it makes business sense - the margins are superior for the Xbox division if they were purely cloud-first from a delivery standpoint (same prices as physical but much lower costs in aggregate).

And this is why I am a retro gamer (for reference - an Xbox 360, PS2, and Wii is now "retro" as well).

Cloud is going be far easier to transition for most companies compared to Office, Browsers, OS and Hardware. There are basically no non-american competitors, and so many companies deeply relying on the tech don't have the IT capacity to implement something OSS like Linux.
Tech is a huge field. If you work in big tech or well-known companies, it is common to job-hop. If you're at something more established, traditional, or mid-sized, you'll probably find lifers.

Additionally, I think fewer people are job-hopping considering the market is so competitive. I would expect new grads to start staying at their first job for longer, too.

yes, they taught us in school that Denmark, which makes no cars, had significantly cheaper cars than... oooh wait a minute, they got sucked into the EU which does make cars... is it still true? how is this handled by EC policy?
The analogy between projects/companies and governments is missing big components though.

- "Benevolent Dictators" of companies or projects have to obey the law
- They can't forbid competition or alternatives
- Every participant can leave at any time
- If they burn the organization to the ground, the worst case scenario is the organization get replaced and people move on

I think it shows that we're using the word "dictator" way too casually in that case.
I mean we do get a few of them per week. I think there is a legit danger of too much heated political discussion changing the character of this site. I feel it's about the right dosage?

In 2021, the extra large 1200 grams pack of coffee beans cost €6,50 at the Lidl in the Netherlands. This month you probably won't find any at the Lidl (not in the ones near me in any case). Other supermarkets have similar empty shelves due to a conflict with the biggest brand name supplier (JDE Peet's), and what is available costs perhaps €10 per kilogram for some of the remaining supply, but €15 per kilogram is now the normal price.

One factor sometimes mentioned in addition to the bad harvest, is the rise in coffee consumption in China having an definitive impact on the market.
Did you even read your own link?

Yes, and I even directly quoted it for you.

He agreed to the deal without any explicit guarantees.

Absolutely false, as has been explained to you already. Stop with the disinformation.

The US made vague statements about a security guarantee with nothing specific. That's not what Zelenski was open to.

I offer you sincere gratitude for leaving this heartfelt statement, which resonates so powerfully with me in this very moment of my life.
One of the most refreshing things about this part of the Foundation books was that I couldn't quite figure out who was in fact the main character.

I too eventually concluded it was Bayta since she was the one who figured out who The Mule was but the other characters contributed quite a lot.

Plus it's my belief that it was the intent of Asimov that nobody is actually a main character -- not for long anyway; I mean, people just die at the very least -- because Seldon's plan is just that big.

But yeah, Bayta was a very likeable character. One of the very few female characters that I liked from Asimov.

There are conservatives with money, and those without. The latter is louder and more visible. Importantly, one should always, as a business, be optimizing for those with dollars vs opinions. Opinions do not contribute to revenue.
Yup, relying on sadistic, communistic regime that puts people into concentration camps is a great idea! What can go wrong!? For instance trading with Russia, Nord Stream, didn't have any bad results...

Oh, crap, no, we have some full scale war going on in Europe now, because Putin thought he keeps Europe on the gas & oil leash (and he was almost right).
The game Tom Clancy's End War is basically about a quadripolar world (you play as Russia, USA or Europe), where Russia hacks the EU WMD network and uses it to attack an American space-based weapon, using that as a false flag operation to make America go to war with Europe. Russia "joins" USA in an alliance and attacks the EU from the east while the US attacks from the Netherlands and Denmark.
STmicro is producing chips at around 14-18nm. ASML is the one producing the leading lithography machine, and we are not talking about ARM, Infineon or NXP. Europe has the capacity to produce their own processors if needed.

> At least Trump lied to them

This is the real bisector. If one party gets to use magic and capture the stupid vote, what's the other party supposed to do? Lie more? Lie less? As long as magic appeals to stupid people, we're screwed.

The real underlying problem is the collapse of the consensus of the elites, projected through corporate media. Murdoch saw a financial opportunity to break from this model, and social media companies followed with this as their only business model. Murdoch and Zuckerberg make money spreading magic which appeals to stupid people who vote in deranged morons. There is no effective feedback mechanism because not enough voters have the mental skills to evaluate the consequences of their actions. Or perhaps they just like seeing chaos and destruction. Rinse repeat.
Tesla's 2024 Free Cash Flow was roughly $3.5 billion. Other than BYD, they're still the only company I'm aware of that can profitably sell an EV. So, raising cash might not be a near-term pressure point.

The board's historically comped Elon on revenues, net income and stock price -- all those aren't that great compared with highs in the last five years. They are, however, astronomical compared to where Tesla was when they gave him his 'crazy' incentive stock plan. I imagine the board is probably repeatedly asking him to settle down, lower the drug intake and ... please don't make things worse bro. Maybe in stronger language than that. And, I'm sure if they think Tesla would be better off without Elon they'll work hard to make that happen. Right now, though is sort of peak anti-Elon sentiment in the public, making it harder to parse out what's helpful / where he's impacting his companies on the non-public side.

Nope. And they're betting on their built-in AdBlock being a good replacement for uBlock, even though it's extremely basic, more so than uBlock Lite.
Many here are anti-war, not pacifist. They disliked the US starting wars. Likewise, they dislike Russia starting wars. That's neither astroturfing nor people turning violent. Quite the opposite: many abhor violence, and letting people invade other countries without consequence does not lead to a world with less violence.

People don't want the US to interfere with domestic politics in Ukraine, they want it to help the national government that has overwhelming support from the local populace fend off an invasion from a foreign nation. They're not in favor of overthrowing the government, they want to prevent that very thing from happening.

Show HN: I made a free directory of online indie creators
i've been working on a bunch of creator-economy ideas (like this: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=40910913 and others) and none really worked (all tarpits), so i decided to open-source the data.

this is a free directory of all these interesting creators from YouTube, Substack, TikTok and podcasts. hope someone here gets some value from this.

Honest question, as a European who doesn't fully understand tipping culture: don't you think that this might be perpetuating a culture of exploitation? Wouldn't you rather spend your money on taxis that at least have some regulations if you are afraid the drivers are getting the wrong end of the deal?

Disagree, location matters. It should be technically feasible to implement a code freeze (in software, or hardware) in a sovereign system when external partners’ motives become questionable. That being said in all likelihood that capability is cost prohibitive (speculation), but still co-location is a pre-requisite.
Is it a social pressure to stare at a screen or to just pretend to be occupied with something else? Would reading a few pages of a book, for instance, satisfy this social pressure?
I do agree more generally that smartphones are borderline essential for many social expectations, though. I personally find smartphones really distracting, being a device that allows for instant information at merely the hint of boredom, and if they were less socially enforced I probably wouldn’t have one.
Look up the F-35 sometime. For Germany's F-35 fleet, Rheinmetall was going to build the fuselages and do final assembly in Germany. Splitting up the work like this isn't unique to products from Panavia or similar EU-only consortia.
It's a moral failure. Even in business. You know the electric car people are bleeding heart liberals. Is it okay to mislead them with false advertising? They really did look at him as a role model. So, immorality is bad business. But how can that be shown to you? I suppose a few more of these articles until this thing goes bankrupt over time. That would truly be god.

Edit: I just want to add a little grace here (got my Sunday suit on). I think Elon is probably the most interesting person you can ever hang out with most likely. He's definitely in a dark mindset atm, and I pray he gets out of it because it's not leading to a better world (and I know he once cared for this).

If you believe that, then you have shown objectively that you have lost your touch on reality and can't recognize other people at all, least of all when it matters.

What is done in small things that don't matter is inevitably done in important things where everything is on the line. It goes to the character of a person.

I had hoped moderation would remove your post for breaking the rules, so I held off responding until now in following eschewing flamebait.

It seems they chose to not enforce the rules here.

I'm a person, and no AI would generate a response like mine, nor could it following so closely to rational principles and supporting what is said sequentially, contextually and while maintaining with consistency. Any person with a bare minimum level of reading comprehension should be able to see this.

These properties as well are important to determine falseness, like your statement, where it fails completely.

You call it an AI generated ad, but name one other other immediate and significant action OP can take that will provide a significant reduction of cost savings that is not well known. You don't provide this, or your reasoning instead choosing nullification without basis which is reputational based on your credibility which isn't good here.

False statements and accusations are worthless, and when you believe in those same statements despite them being false that borders on definitions of delusion which is strongly associated with mental illness.

Intention towards false statements and accusations that would deprive others would classify this response of yours as malice, if its not delusional.

Perhaps you can explain a bit more of your reasoning, maybe you mispoke?, just so there is no miscommunication.

This is not intended to harass, unlike the many downvotes I received for offering value to OP, and those actions have a knock-on effects of preventing any kind of responses for a time, which many are aware of. Its quite a convenient system for malevolent and collectivist groups to stalk and be able to squelch others.

If there is no response, or the response is not appropriate I may not answer but I'll leave this with you:

You should be more careful in your day to day interactions with other people, and follow the rules, and if you actually have a problem, seek help. Ignorance is a sin.
Pissing off your primary customer base probably isn't smart. I don't see MAGA buying electric cars. In foreign markets BYD is a better value.

> Of course, there is a global Tesla boycott.

Is there really? In the sense of a global organized boycott spearheaded by a particular organization? I've not yet seen anything like that. It seems like instead the brand has just been damaged by Musk in the eyes of the kind of person who might be likely to buy an EV in the first place.

Furthermore, that has happened as their offerings have become stale in their primary markets - their old branding approach (techno-utopianism) has lost its appeal, but their new branding (techno-dystopianism) is turning most people off.
It's one thing to have MVC in Go. It's quiet another to match the productivity boost Laravel (or Rails or Django) give you. Admirable attempt... the docs don't say much on the template support in the views but I would imagine there's not a 1:1 with Blade yet.

"right now" being the key phrase here. On what length of time due you judge stability?

Indeed. Like everyone from Lake Wobegon, I think that I am effective at my job. One of the most productive things I can do is to strangle bad ideas in the crib. This is not a popular role.
