not obvious at all when every sentence uses "you" to indicate a general rule that applies to every Italian rather than "I" to indicate a personal experience
there is no lost love between me and Wall Street "bros" BUT it's not their job to run the companies, their job is to buy and sell shares based on results and potential future results.
When a company decides to go public and take their money it's still the company's responsibility to run their business and keep the people they took money from in exchange for shares happy.
as usual it's a matter of bubbles: most of those you know might hold such resentment, most of those I know are in fact in love with the possibilities and are trying their hardest to leverage the new tools.
My 64yo "non digital" graphic artist aunt holds a very high level of resentment to the digital ones, while most of her old friends and ex-colleagues who embraced digital way back when are stil active in the space and happy one way or another, she is not.
But she is happy she can now get near-real-time two-way translation to/from languages she doesn't speak and is also happy to bury her head in the sand when I point out that's thanks to the same tech that will have an impact on the people who do simultaneous translations as a job.
Pixel device trees and other code used to adapt the AOSP release to specific (Made by) Google hardware was not released in a big change from precedent. Without the Pixel hardware repos (which include the device trees, driver binaries, and more), custom Android ROMs will have a hard time developing their OS updates. This might also have implications for security (vulnerability) researchers.
Some large organizations buy Pixel hardware for security properties and an ecosystem with multiple teams testing and contributing upstream. Their procurement teams may have opinions on this change.
Knowing the weight alone is not enough though: you can be 72kg and fat or 86kg and very lean but also very muscular.
E.g. I'm 178cm as well but when I was 71kg I was visibly "fat", or at least skinny fat to be charitable. I'm currently 67kg but very lean and somewhat muscular.
At 86kg I had a bit of dad bod going on. Not a huge gut but somewhat pudgy here and there. Not hugely so and not overly visible as most of it was visceral fat. I haven't had an ultrasound since losing the weight. I hope the liver looks better now. I've been eating fewer calories, healthier calories and swimming. Hopefully that's enough to at least halt the damage done by my old lifestyle.
Nobody here is seriously suggesting the EU doesn't compete economically. The conversation is focused on tech companies, which is in the subject of the thread. Broadly the EU competes very well with the US, China and globally more generally. In most tech areas the EU continues to lag far behind the US and China.
except you seem to think (like many others commenters in this thread) that "tech" means solely "silicon valley-type startups", which it does not.
I'll give you some examples that usually stun the average Italian hence they usually stun most other people as well. You think Italy and probably think fashion but in fact the Top 10 Italian exports are (first semi-random results):
1) Machinery including computers: US$116 billion (17.2% of total exports)
2) Pharmaceuticals: $55.5 billion (8.2%)
3) Vehicles: $47 billion (7%)
4) Electrical machinery, equipment: $45.8 billion (6.8%)
5) Gems, precious metals: $25.7 billion (3.8%)
6) Plastics, plastic articles: $24.3 billion (3.6%)
7) Articles of iron or steel: $21.4 billion (3.2%)
8) Mineral fuels including oil: $19.4 billion (2.9%)
9) Optical, technical, medical apparatus: $17.4 billion (2.6%)
10) Clothing, accessories (not knit or crochet): $16.4 billion (2.4%)
I see a lot of "tech" in this list, I had this very same conversation with a German Private Equity last week but they are well aware and invest in "tech", just not the "tech" the average HN visitor think about
"Tech" as in "toolmaking" is a category so broad to be almost useless. (And somewhat questionable too, when the likes of Google make money with something that is more of a service : advertising.)
"Infocom" has always been clearer to me, not sure why its usage waned so much ?
no one would/should prevent companies from using also private channels like X, FB, Instagram, etc but enforcing a public channel that doesn't require private citizens to register, accept T&S and share their private data with 3rd party, unrelated private corporations to be informed of critical, public safety information would be helpful.
if only you had kept reading 2 more sentences after the one you quoted you'd know:
"The license does not allow removing the original license and purport that the code was created by someone else. It looks as if large parts of the project were copied directly from Spegel without any mention of the original source"
assuming your point is correct about what almost the entire country thinks about ICE locking up tourists (and I don't think it is) it's irrelevant: ICE does it anyway and that's all I as a potential turist care about
exactly. As a Canadian I don't really care that half or more of the country thinks that ICE should not be locking up random Canadians or that the annexation threats aren't real or that the tariffs are a negotiating tactic. It is not relevant to my life how they feel if any of these things affect me.
I'm an almost 50 years old Italian so not a spring chicken but I definitely learnt Italian growing up, not a dialect, and not "from school".
I guess it's the difference between growing up in a city vs a village.
