Eupolemos··on Novo Nordisk's Canadian Mistake
Uh, Novo is having an absolutely massive firing round; the CEO got axed first and Denmark now has a glut of qualified unemployed which we're all doing our best to hire ASAP :D (we just had the lowest unemployment rate in our history)

(Novo hired _way_ too many people because 'infinite money')

Eupolemos··on Electricity can heal wounds three times as fast (2023)
That sounds like some obscure Fallout idiot savant member-berry :D
Eupolemos··on Danish supermarket chain is setting up "Emergency Stores"
Aaaaaand we just bought for 7.7 billion euro earth-based European airdefenses.

The important thing is stocks. My guess is that more and more people has some cash lying around, esp. with NETS' last failure
Eupolemos··on Danish supermarket chain is setting up "Emergency Stores"
Not 2 days ago, but in February, iirc.

We are thankfully on quite the shopping spree, we have also decided to include women into conscription (and that conscripts can be used for real missions, iirc) and we are financing and building Ukrainian weapons like the Flamingo.

Also, Scandinavia has pooled our airforces into one airforce, surpassing the UK, France etc. in size.

Eupolemos··on Bluesky: Updated Terms and Policies
But do you have a point you want to make?

If yes, it is not obvious to me.

Eupolemos··on Bluesky: Updated Terms and Policies
What, in your opinion, is wrong with a bit of monetization?

I know it can produce some posts of less value, but it also pulls the blogger back in and allows professionals in certain areas to not feel they give put high quality out there for absolutely nothing.

I just mean, I can see the pros, but not really serious cons, so I'm wondering what your take is?

Dr. Finkel is just plain amazing.
Eupolemos··on MCP in LM Studio
If you go to huggingface.co, you can tell it what specs you have and when you go to a model, it'll show you what variations of that model are likely to run well.

So if you go to this[0] random model, on the right there is a list of quantifications based on bits, and those you can run will be shown in green.

Eupolemos··on Germany and Italy pressed to bring $245B of gold home from US
When under threat of invasion, that is logical, not controversial.
Eupolemos··on Germany and Italy pressed to bring $245B of gold home from US
No, you are simply gaslighting and being called out.
Eupolemos··on Germany and Italy pressed to bring $245B of gold home from US
When another nation wants to subjugate or invade you and/or your neighbors, not being against is being pro them.

Being against military expenditures and alliances when the other nation is arming like there is no tomorrow is being pro getting invaded.

It is not complicated.

Eupolemos··on Devstral
It was in Rome.

You are objectively using objectively wrong :-P (sorry, couldn't resist)

Disclaimer: I agree that having slaves or killing children is very wrong.

Eupolemos··on US Ends Support For Ukrainian F-16s
> People commenting here keep speaking as though Americans all decided to do this. Trump didn't even win the majority of votes of those who voted.

True, but if Americans do not stop it, they own it.

Nobody cares much if you meant to make an accident, you should have been more careful - especially if you run away from the scene.

Eupolemos··on US Ends Support For Ukrainian F-16s
We have opened for €800 billions in investments through the EU.

So, no.

Calling anything "alarmist positions" now is just uninformed; Putin has said Russia wants the USSR territory back, their entire industry is now turned to produce weapons, their schools are "Putin-Jugend", they are currently invested in the first "great war" since WW2.

And the US isn't just getting out of Europe - they have gone full turncoat.

This is an unmitigated disaster for both US (citizens) and EU, and the EU is trying to manage what they can.

UK and Israel have a deal where they can replace the software or some such.

Eupolemos··on GPT-5 is behind schedule
I find inline AIs like Github Copilot to be annoying, but browser based AIs like Mistral og ChatGPT a really good and welcome help.
Eupolemos··on GitHub Copilot is now available for free
We got Copilot for free at work, but I found it to be so annoying I disabled it after a week or so.

Yeah.

Eupolemos··on In the gut's 'second brain,' key agents of health emerge
Thank you <3
Eupolemos··on In the gut's 'second brain,' key agents of health emerge
Hi - this sounds exactly like what my GF is figthing with bloating, really cold hands and feet and anxiety attacks. She used to have a severe reflux issue.

Can I ask you, what medicine do you take to relax the esophageal sphincter?

When it comes to food, have you found a pattern in what to avoid or do just stick to some basic kinds to avoid?

Eupolemos··on Google engineers want to make ad-blocking (near) impossible
True, but it just isn't that simple.

We have all seen that there are absolutely no boundaries on how many adds and pop-ups sites get plastered with.

They aren't trying to balance it out on their sites, they just try to make as much money as possible. That isn't an acceptable user experience.

Now pair that with the world's most used search engine rewarding the most amount of (their) adds. It is a hellscape.

Eupolemos··on Subreddit Migration Directory
A funny one at that.
Eupolemos··on Archaeologists find 3000-year-old sword, exceptionally well preserved
There's about 4 themeparks of regulations and "we hope this is an adequate ritual" packed into all the stuff those banners need to check and keep up to date when regulations (or the way they are enforced) change.

So third parties specialize in it, and we buy the banner have the company behind them trawl our sites and pull in the info about all the cookies we don't even keep taps on.

And when we've installed them, we all try not to get involved with them again. Because it is the least fun and rewarding area of any web dev day and tinkering with them just might get you invited to a whole series of GDPR review meetings.

Eupolemos··on Tell HN: My Reddit account was banned after adding my subs to the protest
I am unable to watch this on my phone.

It says "either you watch this page in the official reddit app or not at all".

Eupolemos··on Internet disrupted in Pakistan amid arrest of former PM Imran Khan
I am sorry.

Than you for the explanation.

Eupolemos··on Tables no longer needed for HTML email
I've made/remade the HTML emails for the B2B company where I work, so I read this with an eye for practicality.

The big all-important thing is that the Microsoft Word styling is out. It hurts in _so_ many ways when making a mail to be sent via Mailchimp/Mandrill.

Tables is just the example which is easy to convey, something everybody understands. Explaining why a margin/padding/whatever working slightly differently in Microsoft Word (AKA Outlook) and gmail can ruin a few of your days is more difficult.

But probably anyone who has thought "I'll just insert this image here in this Word document, what is the worst that could happen" knows what I mean. Here's a "funny": https://www.reddit.com/r/funny/comments/2glhbp/moving_a_pict...

Making an email that retains the styling in both gmail and outlook, even when the customer replies to it, can be a major endeavor. It sounds like that is changing. Thank God.
