It's almost 2027 and I still dont understand if we actually need MCP. I must admit I am not really surfing the AI wave. But looks like a nothing burger.

I agree and your point on Google is not even that bad compared to most places.

As a frenchman living in London for 10y+, I am always shocked when I go to medium sized cities in the UK. I love the country side though. Joke is that UK is a third world country bolted onto London, obviously exaggerated but if you look at numbers and you go there yourselves there is some truth in it.

A cat that is not a Mistral model now that is confusing.

That would have been handy 20 years ago to point to that one valid 'Download' button.

That is exactly what I had in mind for my daughter too, fantastic that you got that done

Nobody wants to trade stability for feature, especially for a product like Github...

It doesn't look like it got any better since 2014.

Different reasons though, France has nothing to do with water level or availability. It's for environment protection.

The crazy part is that you might be denied entering the country you don't travel with a device...

Yes in democracy we do

Yes, in my vision on society, I'd happily work to help the survival of somebody else, next.

At least Spain has something, UK has something to show for it the numbers are crazy.

Just looked for my order receipt out of curiosity, this was in Jan 23: £160 for Kingston FURY Renegade 32GB (16GB x 2) 6000MT/s DDR5 CL32 DIMM Silver

You pay money to Palantir that money essentially escapes the economy, you develop a sovereign solution yes you pay millions even more but that goes into corporations and people actually living in the country, paying taxes and spending their coins here.

I remember my father built its own personal accounting tool using dbase, I think it was MSDOS at the time, I was a kid. Quite the achievement I think, he was not a software engineer, just hobbyist.

I need to learn how to construct sentences better :(

I switched to xfce since, much better

I hallucinated gnomes after I took medicine they prescribed me at the hospital, following a bike accident.

It's quite obvious they just wanted to punish Anthropic, all this supply chain risk is a joke.

Pair programming is basically continuous code review. You don't take the same path until you discuss and challenge the ideas first. I could argue that code reviews are also lazily done, yes pair programming can be difficult but god reviewing massive PRs, how many times does the attention drops, how many times is it done seriously?

I hope humans in charge are as wise now as they were then.

I'm not scared about AI recommending nuclear strikes, I'm scared about the human behind the keyboard delegating reasoning and responsability to something they think is always correct, something that can hide bias and flaws better than anything.

If it's so cumbersome why don't US companies pull out the EU market? bet they make money anyway don't they

LGTM

One similarity is, if I'm correct, Russia claimed that the naval base of Sevastopol was vital for Russian security.

The protection of the population and the illegitimacy of the current government was an argument developed by Russia at the time, it has not been yet by USA but I suspect this might start develop in the next few weeks.

The common ingredients to justify an invasion/annexation is a mix of: - Self-Defense, security - Historical, Geographical claims - Protection of the population - Moral sugar coating (we had no choice)

I am nowhere advocating to expand executive power in my response.

edit: apologies for not getting your point, I actually think I'm in line. Being able to defend yourself in the US looks too expensive.

That does not make Germany look any better but I find the "percentage on time" not very useful compared to the "years of delay" metric. And arguable a average/median delay per train would be better? Also some delay volatility data would be interesting.

If you look at France for example, 80% of trains are not punctual but the "total delays" is actually on the low range, France being on the large side with lots of lines, I would say that it shows that the delays (20% of the time) are actual shorts.

Nothing is perfect but living in the UK after living in France, I have now a lot more love for SNCF than I used too.

Law is always subject to interpretation and as imperfect as it sounds it is better than no law at all. And I'm not talking about hate speech specifically. Using this as a tool to silence opposition is possible and made easy in countries that do not value and nurture independence of institutions and have rampant corruption, often countries with authoritarian leadership. UK is not exempt of criticism, it would be unhealthy not to, but comparing Russia/Putin with UK/Starmer makes it evident that you are more concerned by pushing a political agenda that by facts and reason.
