That would be profit, not revenue. Still, in terms of profit they went from $25M to $4.5B.

Private insurance in Germany only applies to those self-employed or, optionally, those employed who are above a considerable yearly salary threshold. Otherwise, it's public, and the cost depends on your salary.
If you're employed, your company pays for half the insurance cost, be it private or public. This means that it's expensive for self-employed people.
Re:Why I will always prefer to work from home

I personally really enjoy my commute. It does take 25 minutes, but I cycle, enjoying the views of parks and multiple gorgeous monuments. It makes me move a bit, as opposed to my usual very very sedentary days when I wfh. I imagine this isn't as frequent in the US, as I live in Germany.
I have actually moved to a team that doesn't do wfh so much anymore because my days were long and boring. Life is much better seeing humans on a day to day basis (and I still have some flexibility for wfh and working from abroad).

A post here recently showcased a website/game where you try to jailbreak the AI in multiple ways. Your post processing strategy would fail if, e. g., you ask it to encrypt the output by repeating every word twice. It's impossible to fully prevent this from happening.

What's wrong with Firefox? Are you talking about yourself or some security update coming soon?
