Or a million dollar lottery ticket if you vote republican.
Or Oracle buying news stations and papers with the son of president.
But that's just my opinion
I'm truly horrified all that data is online somewhere synced from external sources in 1 dump.
On the end he said to me: you don't seem impressed...
He didn't knew a thing he was talking about technically. Barely even the db used ( postgres).
He mentioned sha256 for passwords, but doesn't know rainbow tables exist. If I would mention it to him to use a salt, he would probably break every login.
He has no dev and no test environment. Doesn't know about pr's, but he was proud he says he uses git and he "made" it.
It's under "NDA" and his step brother is checking it. Lol
What else?
While Yandex could go bankrupt very soon ( 2-3/5 dc's closed, apps not working, robots not working, payments not working, maps show everyting in rivers and oceans, ...).
Nebius is currently going after their best growth driver. Can't blame them.
Nebius market cap is 57 billion.
Yandex is 65 billion.
Nebius focuses on AI infrastructure worldwide, Yandex focused on being a Google competitor in Russia ( if it survives it's DC's being destroyed).
Russias GDP is basically Italy.
Russia is recently bluffing a bit there, Putin had a visit for the first time recently, I think it's China related:

China is already owning the area with investments and a lot of workers/projects there are already Chinese. Seems like Russia already lost control ( unofficially)
The East because they are blockaded at sea currently, if they would invade Taiwan.
And they already have huge economical leverage there.
Russia is basically falling apart. But in a dictatorship, stuff like that is only seen sudden, when it collapses.
Putin seems to be making many of the mistakes of pre 1991.
The Yandex that stayed in Russia is a ghost of the past.
Thought the same.
Russia is economically becoming a vassal state just like north Korea is.

Well, that's pretty big news actually.
There was just more news about it than with other companies ( I think they let go about 2 k. People a year ago).
( Not saying it's good, just a little perception balance)
See them shifting now.
Things are moving quick.
In the 39 years I live here, the only power loss was due to lightning or planned power cuts because of work in the building where I live in the last 9 years ( rare - twice).
There is however incentive for our high chemistry industry to cut the power and they get re-imbursed. This is when we have too much electricity production ( solar power) vs. consumption. Otherwise the providers have to pay "fines" to lose the overproduction of electricity to neigboring countries ( who probably all have overproduction of electricity).
Basically he's describing an LLM assistant setup that does coding on a vps or Mac mini ( some contradiction with Openrouter though) where you can communicate with the assistant through telegram
