Between 63 and 68% of Google is owned by households, directly or via funds.
I'm not sure why would it be more fair for a company to be private and owned by its workers, versus being owned by anybody who wants to.
This is 40 years ago.
Look at what's happening in the most recent years, who's dropping bombs on civilian markets, who killed hundreds of children in the Iranian conflict saying "oops", or who's actively supporting an apartheid in the middle east, who's kidnapping foreign leaders because "reasons", who's supporting repressive a dozen of repressive regimes for its own interest, etc.
I'm not stating that the Chinese dictature is anything we should long for, but I'm tired of this psy ops to treat them as an enemy or threat.
We should pay much more attention at the shit that happens in our countries on a semi regular basis.
As an European, they've never done anything to me. In fact, it's our countries that pillaged and conquered and colonized China. I've seen our troops on their borders many times, not even once the opposite.
And it's our own allies consistently creating trouble next to our borders in the middle east or north africa and causing millions of refugees that of course don't cross the atlantic.
Why is China evil exactly? And why are they only evil since they started mathing/outpacing US financial dominance?
It's the US spying our leaders (remember Merkel's phone), it's the US bugging our infrastructure, it's the US consistently creating business and legal issues, it's the US threatening our territories (Greenland), it's US cloud vendors violating our data sovereignity and sharing it with any US court or agency.
Why is China the boogeyman exactly?
It really doesn't feel like that's the case, but media and US politicians seem to have convinced the average Joe that every other country is an adversary trying to start a fight or something.
Manufacturing jobs are killed by automation. Robots replaced people in plants.
This is happening in Europe and Asia too.
People "dreaming" or cushy well paid union jobs assembling stuff are talking nonsense nostalgia.
You install gates, raise walls, limit access, hire personnel, etc.
The more you need to secure whatever it is, the more layers you have.
In general, any respectable warehouse would have an external wall with a single entrance to the parking, and then a second entrance to the building itself.
Ukraine had no alternative.
We have various analyses in the National Security Archives, reports and memoirs from US diplomats involved in the matter: the US was the primary actor that pressured Ukraine in giving up their nuclear stock pile.
Ukraine could not operate it (everything from security, cryptography, controls, navigations, etc was in Moscow anyway), could not maintain it, and could not even guard their stock pile.
The biggest risk for the United States was that with the rampant corruption and sell off of soviet weaponry on the black market there were the wrong incentives for too many actors that could bring soviet nuclear weapons in the hands of bad actors.
2. No point of the Budapest Memorandum implied that the signatories had to defend Ukraine.
Paragraph 4 essentially states that signatories have seek UN Security Council action if Ukraine became the victim of aggression or a threat of aggression involving nuclear weapons.
Ukraine isn't victim of aggression involving nuclear weapons, and even if it was, the signatories merely said they would escalate the matter to UN's security council.
Another paragraph had signatories (China, France, US, Russia, UK) to refrain from using force against Ukraine. Russia has violated this point.
When you have made a life and career out of a particular skillset, like writing code, the fact that a machine is now doing your job is a hard swallow pill.
You will keep the denial and finding all the cons for as long as you can.
"Oh, but it's not clean", "Oh, but it's a spaghetti mess".
Because accepting that the previous points don't matter anymore in the overwhelming majority of cases, and the technology keeps getting better at each release is difficult.
It is sad after all. I enjoyed the magic and craft too. Now I'm a borderline meat relay, who'se added value is only because business and product people are too lazy to instruct the tools.
If you do so now, your coworker has built two features and automated some other job in the time you found the best design pattern for a particular problem.
You cannot outsource technology that is critical to your defense.
You either develop it on your own or you operate it along your allies.
Ukraine is in no military alliance, so Musk or not, it is consistently liable to the unreliability and whims of external providers, either public or private.
Which is why I'm very negative every time I hear European countries are renting from Space X instead of investing in common space technology. The day that somebody in Washington, or Dallas, decides to turn the switch off, you're off.
Not throwing endless resources and energies at a problem "because Twitter told me what the best practices are".
E.g. Maybe Claude Code could use half the memory, maybe, but maybe the correct estimation is that solving the memory problem would negatively effect development speed, or would cost many millions of engineering effort and no real world user would really care whether it's using 50 or 500 MBs of ram.
So no, you're not an engineer but a "developer", if you think that "quality" code is engineering, code has a development and maintenance cost, specific directions come with important trade offs.
My understanding is that they have manual reviewers in phase 1 of their projects. Their goal is to refine the automation of reviewing, writing skills/rules, etc, enforcing architectural choices, etc.
Then in phase 2, the review phase is AI-driven itself and humans only get to be decision makers of escalated issues.
That lowers the entry bar for basic spying.
I am one of those people that reinvents the wheels because external ones don't fit my use cases.
The fact I can now fork any software and do these changes I always wanted but had no time to is amazing to me.
I do not pretend to sell it or share it, as it is de facto void of any value whatsoever.
It has never been about how much money you make.
The overwhelming majority of self employed professionals I know (electricians, mechanics, plumbers) make way more than the average white collar worker (southern Europe).
Just to make it clearer: my SO, which works in governance of a major italian bank, makes way less than her brother painting walls.
Because Russian leadership is acting in self interest and preservation and a neverending state of war might be what secures its own position and power.
I wonder where then the millions of soldiers that fought the russian civil war came from.
You're assuming rational behavior, but time and time again world leaders have demonstrated that they will pursue erratic behavior if their feelings or vibe suggest them that behavior to be their way out of their own trouble.
