Why? For me as a European it is pretty clear we need to cooperate to not be swooped away by the other big powers.

Location Before After Change

New York 31.3% 18.5% −12.8 pp

Ottawa 19.7% 18.5% −1.2 pp

London 18.1% 32.1% +14.0 pp

Zeist 30.8% 30.8% 0 pp

Seems it is mostly because there was less trust in the USA, and added a little bit from Canada to make it less obvious.

You can also buy something now that not all shops have adjusted to the new pricing.

It works with third party controllers. Both the classic console ones as more VR styled ones.

We don’t need 200gb of RAM on a phone to run big models. Just 200 GB of storage thanks to Apple’s “LLM in a flash” research.

Many of the keyboard commands are configurable in settings, complete with switching cmd and ctrl keys around. Or you can get used in a week or two when switching, this is what I did years ago and now for me Win/Linux is confusing and find the location of the command key more ergonomic on a Mac.

Here some history on how the command key came to be https://www.folklore.org/Swedish_Campground.html https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Command_key

For those wondering: Geekbench CPU single/multi and GPU Metal scores.

- M1: 2,347 / 8,342 / 32,377

- M2: 2,587 / 9,669 / 44,712

- A18Pro: 3,539 / 8,772 / 32,288

So Neo is really comparable with the M1, although it has quite faster in single core speed.

This year the Apple leadership didn't visit his Talkshow anymore. Likely as a response to this article.

They also support updating Safari for 2 versions back of macOS.

I’m a Kotlin dev, and Koog feels like a breath of fresh air being able to spin up agents with a typesafe, Kotlin-native DSL is really nice. The magic for me is the ability to swap between OpenAI, Anthropic, or your own Llama with zero friction. Plus, the smart history compression already looks like it’ll save a ton on tokens, and the streaming + persistent memory hooks look nice too! Can’t wait to dig in and see how it holds up in a real project!

I prefer the Kotlin route. It is also supported by a foundation of multiple companies which includes Google and Kotlin is the native language for Android. It supports more targets already for years with Kotlin Native. And recently the Compose iOS target became stable with 1.8 enabling cross platform UI development. It is easier to integrate with native components.

Also the web stack (incl Wasm) got some big updates.

Why would Google still invest in Flutter and Dart when Kotlin is becoming this versatile?

Are there long term advantages with Dart which I am missing?

> More than that though, there’s simply no good competitor. Maybe, one day, Bluesky can take over, but it’s too small and too self-congratulatory currently. Like most of these starter platforms, the majority of posts seem to be about the network itself, rather than the world outside of it.

I don't recognize the authors comment that it is only about Bluesky. It likely all depends on who you follow.

I have now been a few months on Bluesky and havent looked back. I noticed many thinkers I followed did continue on Bluesky and I noticed there is a much less toxic community which is a big win for my mental health.

As an EU citizen, I think we have no choice but to be tough here. Trump’s tariffs aren’t something we asked for, but backing down isn’t an option either—he’ll just keep pushing. Targeting US services, especially big tech, makes sense because it hits where the US is genuinely vulnerable, and Europe can’t match them dollar-for-dollar on goods alone.

Look, I’d prefer a cooperative relationship too, but diplomacy clearly hasn’t worked. The US administration needs to understand that actions have consequences, and if this means leveraging our market strength and standing firm, then that’s exactly what we have to do. If the EU doesn’t respond decisively, we’ll only embolden more aggressive policies from Trump’s side.

We’ve tried being patient. Now it’s about showing we won’t be pushed around.

The EU isn’t trying to “rob” American tech companies or punish them just out of spite. They’ve introduced strict regulations like GDPR or the Digital Markets Act, because they’re genuinely concerned about protecting consumer rights, privacy, and maintaining fair compettion. These aren’t random fines aimed only at US firms, European companies get fined too if they break the rules.

It’s true Europe struggles to build big global tech companies, but that’s mainly due to factors like fragmented markets, less venture capital, and more cautious investors, not just regulation. Cities like Berlin, Amsterdam, and Stockholm actually have thriving tech scenes despite these rules.

So it’s really not about hurting US tech, it’s more about making sure huge companies, wherever they’re from, follow clear rules and don’t abuse their market power.

I was reading it is based on the part numbers and it is a different number for US bought watches.

If number ends with LW/A you will not have it

I have YouTube premium and I have access to experimental features and coincidentally they offer one feature called audio in high quality. So they are working on improving it.

Description:

High-Quality Audio

Available until February 22

With high-quality audio, you can listen to music on YouTube in the best audio quality.

How it works: Watch an eligible music video on YouTube and enjoy the benefits of higher-quality audio.

Only available on iOS and Android.

Yes, see wiki about the website: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitehouse.gov

I am more enthusiastic with Kotlin also compiling to wasm with Jetpack compose and now working in all major browsers. It provides a full modern UI framework and also compiles to mobile and desktop. Code is also usable on server and if using the JVM fully interoperable with Java.

Just like Option+Space for ChatGPT app on macOS. Seems to become the default AI shortcut

I have built a React Native app in the past. Nowadays I would go for Kotlin Multiplatform. It is already the primary language on Android and now it is possible to create native binaries on iOS. With Compose multiplatform it also has the ability to also share UI code with a declarative syntax on multiple platforms.

I think React Native was the go to place in the past but it has been surpassed now.

For me it is because I don’t wear lenses and learned to move the phone a bit further away during the scan to make it eorl in bed. It works every time

MacOS does not allow kernel extensions anymore so these kinds of crashes cannot happen. The falcon client on Mac hooks into another layer
