Pungsnigel··on Grok Bot
What plan are you on? Does the bot have its own usage, or does it count against cursor/grok code usage?

They're not far right. More overall populist. Lots of left and right ideas from them.
Pungsnigel··on Tech workers' fight for living wages and a 32-hour workweek is a battle for all
Which countries have <40 hours/week and thrive?
Pungsnigel··on Tech world won't have long to fall in line when EU signs off on AI Act
Nope. These type of regulations looks good, but it's not fun or easy to do business in an overly regulated marked. If this continues, the US will improving financially faster than the EU. People are not likely to move to a worse economy because they value regulations like this.
Pungsnigel··on Tesla sues Swedish state agency over number plate blockage
Most employees don't seem to be in support of the unions at this point though? It's a bit hard to tell as there are no official numbers, but from what I've seen it seems like ~90% or so of employees at Tesla remain at work. And there is a high demand for their services, so they could easily go to other companies for work if conditions are bad.
Pungsnigel··on Tesla sues Swedish state agency over number plate blockage
Lots of companies work without collective agreements in Sweden though. Under law it's completely free if you want to do so or not. You could as well say that the unions are threatening the Swedish model due to taking this to such extreme levels. Especially as it doesn't seem most employees at Tesla want the unions involved.
Pungsnigel··on Tesla sues Swedish state agency over number plate blockage
It's unclear though? There are also laws regarding mail services I believe.
Pungsnigel··on Tesla sues Swedish state agency over number plate blockage
No, you got it quite right I think. The government agency in question has a deal with Postnord (owned mainly by the Swedish state) to utilise them for all mail services. License plates has to be sent by mail. Postnord employees refuses to do so to Tesla. I believe they've also said they'd refuse to hand them out to Tesla should they come asking for them. In effect, not legal way for Tesla to sell cars in Sweden at this point.

No, it really shouldn't.
Pungsnigel··on Peter Molyneux wants Project MOAT to represent his life's work
Fable 1 is among the best games ever in my opinion. Still holds up decent as well. Insanely good atmosphere.

Yeah, that’s one approach. Works great

I love the new hotwire stuff. What don’t you like about thd front-end?
Pungsnigel··on Swedish cities hit by four residential explosions in an hour
Gun violence and these explosions have been going up quite a bit last few years at least. Anecdotal (Sweden here) people in my closest circle feel a lot less safe, and less comfortable in public spaces, compared to a few years ago. Not to a huge extent, but noticeable.

Not sure how it's racist. It's exclusively done by immigrants in Sweden? Surely that's a factor that is relevant to the discussion?
Pungsnigel··on Amazon CEO warns remote workers: ‘It’s probably not going to work out for you’
I would not take that for granted tbh.

Pungsnigel··on IRIS²: The EU’s Response to Musk’s Starlink
Well EU != Europe for one. I’m positive to Europe, (mostly) negative on EU. Could be you are both right.
Pungsnigel··on Automating cookie consent and GDPR violation detection
Wouldn't that just end up in the hands of whatever government is relevant? I believe the fines you pay for GDPR violations are paid to governments, not users or suers.
Pungsnigel··on Spending more on retaining developers reduces the cost of hiring developers
I agree it's more likely. I wouldn't be surprised if it's a bit of both in the end though.
Pungsnigel··on Spending more on retaining developers reduces the cost of hiring developers
Or there are systematic mistakes being made. Or maybe both.
Pungsnigel··on Pfizer board member suggests end to mask, vaccine mandates
"Trumpian lies"?

Trump is actively promoting vaccination.

Pungsnigel··on Novak Djokovic's Visa Cancelled by Australian Minister for Immigration
He just had Covid as well? So most likely he is better protected than vaccinated people.
Pungsnigel··on Squats can boost brain activity [video]
The point of starting strength is also to do it until your beginner goals are done. At that point you are strong. What you do from there is up to you, and I doubt Rippetoe would care. If you add cardio and focus less on strength at that point, that's not a problem. The point he's always hammering in is to "get strong first". Strength lasts. But it does take time to build up.
Pungsnigel··on Coinbase plans to add $500M worth of crypto to its balance sheet
I'm guessing it's simply that more and more people are fearing that the current inflation is not transitory.
Pungsnigel··on The biological basis for sex differences in autoimmune diseases
I work with clinical studies, and I've not seen any indication that this would be even remotely true.

Pungsnigel··on Bitcoin Blockchain Visualization
I think more or less everything by IOHK is open source, you can probably find more through the github link on the page. Discussions on bitcoin vs bitcoin cash is probably better suited for other places :)
