Also that can't be the whole story because Planck died in 1947 and in Germany (then and now) Copyright ends 70 years after the death of the author.

I wonder whether most scalpers are hustle types, bored teenager or organized groups.

They did, but decided to mess with them first.

A sensible human operator would have given up or questioned their premises. The agent never could of course.

Maybe? It just takes one after all.

I've met some people IRL who are so engulfed in their own greatness that it simply cannot be that they made a mistake (in planning and strategy). Therefore this is all a great injustice towards a poor victim and doesn't that sound like a great argument for some charity money.

Most of them grow out of it, some become politicians.

I'd say it's a 50/50 chance.

That is also not guaranteed. VW (with its array of brands) leads the european BEV market by a lot. [1] (sorry I only found data for April 2026 right now but earlier months were similar)

One additional point of data. In Q1 of this year they delivered 200K BEV worldwide [2] while Tesla did 350k [3].

Calling that 10 years behind is not warranted in my opinion. I would agree to say competitive and challenged.

That's not quite right.

For example Siemens and Bosch are large enterprises specialised in industrial scale electrical machines and parts (among other fields).

Infineon was spun off from Siemens 25 years ago an plays an important role in chip manufacturing for automative systems.

Yeah it'll fly legally.

Everybody should just assume that they are lying about data retention and learning anyway.

They showed zero respect for intellectual property in the past and they will show zero respect now or in the future. A few thousand Euros/dollars in subscription doesn't matter when several trillions are in play (at least in their plans).

I guess is was partially the high prices but also their unpredictability.

Having to increase an already high price would not be great.

That is now somewhat better then half a year ago.

ok how would you recommend to get started? Doing nothing will change nothing.

That doesn't sound bad at all. At least for me as a German that would be a salary that you wouldn't get at every random company.

Maybe the Netherlands are different (country can vary a lot with what is included in a salary) ?

As usual if there is reasonable competition this limits what the established actors can and will do.

Are they under any obligation to ground the value of their own stock or can a salesman simply claim that the "true" value of that stock is much much more than it currently seems to be?

Wrapper around the function call. Don't give it the token itself but a limited set of fixed functions to create domains (their use case according to the post).

Additionally give it a similar restricted way to "delete" domains while actually hiding them from you. If you are very paranoid throw in rate limits and/or further validation. Hard limits.

Yes this requires more code and consideration but well that's what the tools can be fully trusted with.

And also how you work with automation safely.

If you employ a new tech then there need to be extra safeguards beyond what you may deem necessary in an ideal world.

This is a well know possibility so they should have asked and/or verified token scope.

If it turns out that you can't hard scope it then either use a different provider, a wrapper you control (can't be too difficult if you only want to create and delete domains) or simply do not use llms for this for now.

Maybe the tech isn't there just yet even if it would be really convenient. It's plenty useful in many other situations.

That would be really great. Though 3.5 122B is already doing a lot of work in our setup.

And you can require new custom software to be compatible and guarantee an initial market.

It's a strategic decision and of course it's not financially optimal.

And if in 20 years thered still a few windows computers around in their org that doesn't matter

> The problem here is taking "word for word" as "by dictionary meaning", which is never how laws are read.

Back in the days of "smart contracts" and "DAOS" this was something many well-meaning technical people struggeled with. Humans and their societies are flexible and therefore laws must be flexible as well (to a certain degree before it becomes damaging).

It's also why a lawyer/expert is usually recommended when engaged with legal matters: We as layman lack all the context around seemingly "simple" concepts, procedures and definitions. You can learn all of that or hire a professional.

Without being an expert that still seems very unlikely to me.

The epic was written around 2000 BCE which was well over >> 10k years after agriculture and more than 4 times that much after neanderthals died out.

It's possible but much more likely that they refer to something more contemporary. There are always "wild men" around no matter who you ask.

To early to say that but it's certainly a part of the equation all vendors are currently looking at.

And given the past few decades there is no reason to not try to do that.

I just looked it up for Germany[0] and there were a whopping 3 (0.0%) new hydrogen fuel cell cars registered in Februrary 2026. Even LPG cars were more with 397 registered.

For comparison 21.9% were BEVs, 11.5% Plugin hybrids, ~51% pure petrol or non plug-in hybrid, and 14.8% Diesel.
