I think real info is how attainable is solid standard of living if you assume that buying your home is the single biggest expense item in your life. So I think you could min-max a “best” city in terms of work/life.

Brussels seems like the best choice from here. I’ve been there only once. It’s nice but the not nicest parts are quite on the not nice side of things. Maybe this is what brings the ratio down?

Once Musk stepped out of active politics people quickly forgot. And frankly Teslas as EVs are quite competitive.

There are many critiques of the eurozone that its in a weird limbo. You have one size fits all solution and very little EU level budget to offset it in member countries where the solution doesn’t fit. This is especially meant for interest rate and exchange rate.

I have it on my gaming machine. Stuff works :)

They needed to hear this advice from Wall Street first. But I’m optimist for the web. 90% of it was SEO optimized crap, so not much to cry for.

On Linux, an application must request MPTCP when it opens a socket.

Ah nothing to worry about.

As of Go 1.24, Go programs do so by default for the sockets they listen on

Fuuuck

I think Kushner turns around this amount before his morning coffee. This is amateur hour.

They are trading at big growth multiples. So if the rate of growth slows then it gets repriced. Their assumption was double digit growth rate, which is one helluva bet.

When it comes to commercial software Russia is usually competing with EU for the last place. Not a particularly great outlook.

Huh I wasn’t aware starlink is bringing in so much money.

Mister Cyber Egg please accept my apologies for I have made a claim that was not sufficiently substantiated with historical facts.

These wars were preceding WW1. But of course weren’t nowhere as big. 19th century was eventful.

Yes of course. But during WW1 alliances really weren’t stable when you look at a bigger picture. It was much more opportunistic than ww2. Germany vs Austria, Austria vs Ottomans, British Empire vs Russia, British vs French.

Latter we had this more homogeneous allied block.

WW1 was free for all between empires. WW2 you can talk about allies.

Europe is a colonial subject at least since middle east wars started. Some would even argue that its ever since end of WW2, but I’m not so sure of that.

The problem didn’t start with current admin, its just more pronounced now.

One counter argument to colonialism is that many genuinely believed in liberal world order. Some stil do.

But have we solved solar + heat pumps in the winter problem? Hydrogen sounds logical but its not the hot thing right now.

Edit: I obviously wasn’t clear. I meant operating heat pumps if main el. source is solar. I’m well aware of suitability of heatpumps.

Realpolitik back on the menu?

No one has surrendered anything

Previous mantra was unified diplomatic isolation. So that strategy was esentially surrendered.

Now we have two countries going solo realpolitik.

I’m not saying its necessary a bad development but its certainly a break from previous line.
