Same for me, but it produced much better answer than what would I expect from GPT 5.5 xhigh. Also the good think about Codex is that it always finishes the prompt, even when the limit was reached in the half.

Secrecy of correspondence is a pretty old concept.

Why should people in food industry have a special threatment compared to people working in other industries?

If I was paying a market price for my medical insurance, I would probably pay a third of it and be able to get a screening sooner than in a half a year as a cancer patient.

Pensions are a special case in my country, because we have just state pensions and almost no private funds. Everyone in my age - late 20s or early 30s know, that we pay a great share of our income to current pensioners but we won't be able to get it because of the demographics.

Yeah, most europeans are not aware how much do we spend on agriculture, pensions and healthcare.

For a long time apple keyboard did not support my language (czech), I would use gboard. And yes, it is still slightly better than the Apple one, but the switching is buggy and the problem is on the apple side.

But computer usage proficiency is not computer science either. These skills should be teached in a separate class. Agree with the gen z lack of computer skills though.

All enterprises I know use GitHub copilot as they already have Office, Teams, … wonder how will it change with the recent pricing changes

I have got lots of downvotes and no critical comments. Why?

Scaleway is actually good. Last time I have tried they didn't have this huge banner that they are european, so I didn't know. Still they look like digitalocean alternative, not huge enterprise level aws alternative.

Why not focus on having something actually competetive with AWS / gcp / azure? And not, hetzner and OVH are not it.

Not to agree or disagree, but the McKinsey has been heavily criticised as bogus. For example https://econjwatch.org/File+download/1296/GreenHandMar2024.p....

I don’t know where you live, but generally EU’s governments are much more in support of migration than their citizens. The big corporations want that cheap labour and they won’t pay the secondary cost.

Still, more tax burden for companies won’t make eu more competitive against the rest of the world. We need to dramatically cut down all the regulations, have a true one market, open capital market. I am still very much pro EU, but it needs to be reformed.

I am sure that the problem of current EU is not lack of excesive taxation.
