In Schweden schaffen sie es auch auf Wochenmärkten, Kartenzahlung anzubieten. Selbst die Obdachlosen dort unterstützen Kartenzahlung.

Ein SumUp Gerät kostet unter 20€

I‘m curious if he told Elmo the same. The guy nazi who streams gaming content from his private jet 30% of his day, posts shit on shitter 60% of the day and fucks up democracy 20% of the day.

This is what these productivity gurus are referring to when they‘re talking about giving 110% every day

Republicans have fought for a long time to keep the average person dumb.

This is what happens with an undemocratic, white privilege education system.

Kind of ironic to read this. First, the UK decided to part ways to pursue their economic goals on their own.

Now that the US are doing the same, they realize how benefitial the EU was for their economy (even without Trump, they realized this).

GB perfectly demonstrated why the US way of thinking is bs. They regret it every single day and the US are too dumb to learn from others mistakes

I disagree a bit. Any money the ultra-rich invest into research is better spent than on their next Mega-Yacht. Even if AI cannot meet the expectations of AGI etc.

Das ist nicht so einfach zu beantworten. Ein Faktor ist bestimmt, dass Schweden frühzeitig darauf gesetzt hat, dass keine zusätzlichen Gebühren anfallen (durch ihr eigenes digitales Zahlungssystem Swish).

Hier in Deutschland war man lange zu träge und auf externe Lösungen wie Mastercard und Visa angewiesen, was mit höheren Gebühren einherging. Vielleicht hat sich das in den Köpfen eingebrannt und zu einer langfristig negativen Einstellung zur Kartenzahlung geführt.

Die Steueroptimierung in Deutschland ist dabei eben ein gern gesehener Nebeneffekt, der sich in einigen Branchen eingebrannt hat, sodass man mit einer ehrlichen Besteuerung einen kompetitiven Nachteil hat im Vergleich zur ehrlichen Bezahlung.

Aber wie gesagt, es gibt vermutlich noch einige weitere Faktoren

A new saxophone. I have been playing the sax for 15 years and have kept my beginner horn ever since. A good sax starts at 5k though, so I‘ll probably need at least 5 more years at my current saving rate

Surprising to see GPT 4.1. Sama told us that GPT5 was „just around the corner“ - why waste efforts then for some soon-outdated model

You can try HereWeGo Maps if you want live traffic information and public transport. The company behind HereWeGo is dutch

At least they‘ve wasted their money for research of what doesn‘t work instead of just building silly products as for the .com bubble.

Humanity will gain insights to the kind of AI approaches that won‘t work much faster than without all the money. It‘s just an allocation of human efforts

3 / 48 Monaten unter Trump sind jetzt vorbei. 45 kommen noch.

Ich werde nicht versuchen, das fallende Messer zu greifen.

I thought the same. That’s why I am on Proton which has a sufficient free tier (1GB). If I am not able to pay any of the higher tiers anymore, I can always fall back to the free one

Also, this supports growth of the “small” email providers which will allow them to get traction in the B2B sector.

Once they have grown, they can afford running consumer tiers at a loss and compensating this with other revenue streams - similar to what big tech is currently doing

It has been more than just hyperscaling. First of all, the invention of transformers would likely be significantly delayed without the hype around CNNs in the first AI wave in 2014. OpenAI wouldn‘t have been founded and their early contributions (like Soft Actor-Critic RL) could have taken longer to be explored.

While I agree that the transformer architecture itself hasn‘t advanced far since 2018 apart from scaling, its success has significantly contributed to self-learning policies.

RLHF, Direct Policy Optimization, and in particular DeepSeek‘s GRPO are huge milestones for Reinforcement Learning which arguably is the most promising trajectory for actual intelligence. Those are a direct consequence of the money pumped into AI and the appeal it has to many smart and talented people around the world

Mit Wero setzt sich hoffentlich zeitnah eine datenschutzkonforme Alternative in der EU durch

From Trump‘s (questionable) world view, Finland is not an enemy. They heavily invested in their own military and didn‘t have a negative export balance with the US.

These are the two things he criticizes the most about the biggest countries in the EU.

Just delete your account on the old service. I deleted Whatsapp and most of my close friends were unwilling to install „another app“ at first.

I was fine with their point of view and we started texting via SMS. After a while they realized that switching is more comfortable than writing via SMS and they were fine.

Only works for close friends though. Others may simply cut ties then

Google really cooked this time. I tried every other Google model and was not even close to switching from Sonnet

Ich würde natürlich Obdachlose nicht dazu verpflichten, Kartenzahlung entgegenzunehmen. Ich wollte verdeutlichen, dass die technische Hürde für ein funktionierendes Zahlungsterminal nicht unüberwindbar ist.

In Schweden, wo die wenigsten Leute überhaupt noch Bargeld mit sich führen, ist es selbst für Obdachlose lukrativer, einen QR Code bereitzustellen.

Wo ein Wille ist, ist auch ein Weg

Ich lasse mich gerne vom Gegenteil überzeugen. Ein Aktienmarkt am Boden ist nie gut.

Nichtsdestotrotz gibt es für mich aktuell keine Anzeichen für einen Kurswechsel Trumps… Der Mann kann sich keine Niederlagen eingestehen
