There was a Spanish actor who biked from Spain to Rome as part of some doc and he got hit pretty badly: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uvojIfdmSR8

In France, obviously.

Then why the ball touching ceremony?

reporter: So simple human error?

Mike: Yes, exactly.

reporter: Which human?

Mike: Several, uh, separate humans.

Have you seen anything interesting recently (that’s not Start Wars or Marvel)? I’m always looking for good SciFi.

100% of their profits doesn’t come from location data processing. They will definitely make more money but to show that this fine is insignificant you have to prove that the money they made from location data processing alone was more than that fine.

Have you seen Incorporated: https://www.imdb.com/title/tt4118466/ ?

Shows really well what it might look like. Great show, such a shame it got cancelled.

Maybe. More likely current system will not survive this and we will end up with some sort of neo-monarchies where powerful leaders control most of the countries (Putin, Xi, Trump… we’re already pretty close) working hand in hand with corporations and billionaires operating as independent states and people either working for them, starving or both.

Yes, this completely different point you’re making now is better then the first point you’ve made.

And writing articles about a problem is not a valid way of getting more people to support your cause and convincing politicians to address them? How are people supposed to get their councils to do something without complaining about it?

You’re right, sending them my orders now. Local council have to do everything I tell them, right?

Spaniard love to eat outside for some reason. Sometimes you will see couple of small tables on a sidewalk right next to a busy street because people just prefer to sit outside, even if it not pleasant at all. Maybe it’s because inside it’s usually so noisy you can’t have a conversation without shouting…

Funny (well, funny enough) story: a friend was visiting me in Spain and as we were looking for a place to eat she goes “let’s go to the port, we will be able to see the water”. I was like “that’s a weird priority… but ok”. So we find a nice place in the port, sit down, I look around and the restaurant was full British people sitting on one side of the table looking at the sea.

Weird how every nation is obsessed with some details others don’t really care about.

The current system no longer works for an average citizen. Current and future generations can’t expect a higher standard of living than our parents had while the environment gets destroyed all around us. This disillusionment with current ruling class leads people to support anti-establishment candidates which tend to be far right populists. It’s still possible for socialists to provide a valid alternative but in many countries the left is too fragmented and/or too focused on the wrong issues.

“Google admits to hacking three other companies”.

Fixed that for you.

journalist: People say Putin is the world leader with the most shit in his pants right now

Trump: I don’t know, I have a lot of shit in my pants also

It’s always funny to see people on lemmy calling for boycotts, saying how stupid companies are for not making products they want to buy and predicting how badly things will fail only for the masses to completely ignore all this and spend money on the same shit as always.

So do they have the scale printed on the wall or do you have to ask?

There’s a terrific writeup from the folks at FlintAI — their team is now 5 devs and 45 agents, all living in Slack. Nine agents per developer. The agents take roles — triage, deploy, review — the human steps in for the two decisions that actually matter (code review, release approval), and they report something like a 3x productivity bump. It’s a genuinely impressive piece of engineering and you should read it.

That’s the model everybody’s racing toward right now: take your best seniors, strap nine agents to them, and harvest the multiple. And it works! I’m not knocking it (and I’m doing it too)!

I’m a senior but if the future of my work is reviewing AI code all day I will buy a bunch of goats and become a goatherder.

Isn’t she from the party running on family values?

*Additionally, I believe that strong families are the foundation of American society, and I oppose efforts to redefine marriage as anything other than the union of one man and one woman. *

And apparently a bunch of that woman’s staffers…

Not that it’s going to change anything (MAGA loves hypocrisy) but I think that if a politician makes family values the core of their brand it’s fair to report what family values they actually represent.

In my experience Chinese cars have loads of cool features that sometimes even work.
