Profitable is a stretch. Either they show GAAP accounts or they are not profitable, no matter how much hype or PR they put out there
Give it 3 years and an acquisition offer of billions by Mastercard or Visa
Ok, this is good. The top eye not blinking broke the illusion a bit, but overall well done

Nice style and very calming! Nice read about how it works too, well done
Really cool! Thanks for the release. Would you be open to share a bit about the business model and the economic side of things?

Really good news for Italy and for the whole of Europe (if not the world)!

Agreed. I did not mean that covid was the cause. The chart shows that it was a significant change

Seems like COVID changed us
Re:The Effect of Cold Showering on Health and Work on Sunday September 13, 2026 @07:28AM (#49682766)
How do you jump to that conclusion?

"Self reported" is just the way the data was obtained, which makes sense in the context of the country this study was performed as most short sickness absences do not have to be justified and are self reported. You can read that sentence as "reduction of sickness absence" which matches with the other sentence in the results section "A negative binomial regression model showed a 29% reduction in sickness absence for (hot-to-) cold shower regimen compared to the control group"

Really liked your "toys", Demjan. I am on a similar quest, it's so good to be able to prototype fast with AI those silly ideas
Airconsole was great when it launched! I still play with friends if we are all at home

I like the checklist idea and definitely checking the revenue per employee
$999m. No billionaires.

Everything above 999 goes to the government. In return the would-have-been a billionare gets their name on a park. Hopefully that gets 999ers to care for their parks as they are the only symbol of status

I like to think that if time travel is invented I'd spend my days as the dad in About Time, just reading and going back to read more

Congrats on the raise! Keep rocking
Not free. Disappointed
Have you noticed that google slides has autoplay? You can even select how many seconds you want

Something in the 80/20 range would be more palatable?

Great use of free will! For a while when I was a teen I thought the game was real but only released in the US

We went backwards. We should live in a world where batteries can be replaced so you don't have to wait to charge...

50% only to non profits is a bit too little? I like the transparency part but 50% share is going to slow/kill adoption
Now it comes the hard part, making it happen. It's easy to create a computer video to demo and raise money, and the approval is just a paperwork game... now it's time to see if the science and engineering is there
