@MichaelAArouet @SloptopCaptial Spain was the fastest growing economy in the world last year 😅
English
Spain has the highest youth unemployment rate in Europe, making it quite difficult for young people to start a family.
It also has the highest immigration inflow in Europe. Can someone please explain the logic behind that?

@MichaelAArouet Spain was the fastest growing economy in the world last year 😅
And I know we don't count, but the UK saw 900k growth in that same period (according to home office) and our GDP retracted.

🚨🇺🇸 🇪🇺 PENTAGON REWRITES PLAYBOOK: HOMELAND AND WESTERN HEMISPHERE NOW TOP PRIORITY
The 2026 National Defense Strategy just dropped a seismic shift.
China's no longer the primary threat.
The U.S. homeland is. The Western Hemisphere is.
Europe's downgraded to "smaller and decreasing share of global economic power."
Secretary Hegseth buried this for months while officials fought over how to describe China without sabotaging trade talks.
Now it's out: Diplomacy with Beijing.
Strong denial defense in the Pacific.
But the real focus? Greenland. Panama Canal. The Gulf of Mexico.
Keeping Chinese influence out of the Western Hemisphere.
Reality: Trump's abandoning "grandiose strategies" for what he calls "practical interests."
That means Venezuela operations make sense now.
Greenland acquisition makes sense.
Securing the hemisphere matters more than countering China globally.
This is America First doctrine in military strategy form.

Yesterday, I spoke with a developer who stopped contributing to open-source projects.
10+ years doing this, and now he's done.
"Why should I spend my weekends building something that will just become training data for the next model?"
I don't like where this is going.

Here’s what often gets missed when people think about AI coding. The code may now be free, but the learnings of what to build (and what to build *next*) and how to build it are bottlenecked by the same set of factors as before.
Martin hits on this perfectly: “Changes are the result of a business learnings.”
You only get very useful business learnings once a customer has implemented the *first* thing you shipped, then you learn from their experience, and make updates.
So your ultimate bottleneck on software development is no longer the rate at which you can type code (as it primarily was before), but now the rate at which customers can adopt features and generate a feedback loop for you.

I work with multiple companies where nearly all code is AI generated now. However, the productivity probably has only increased 20-30%. Why? I suspect because writing code is really running code. Changes are the result of a business learnings. Or an operational learnings. For mature companies, the majority of PRs are sub 10 lines codifying these learnings. AI clearly helps here (e.g. debugging, running tests, building tools) but less so. Operations and business learnings are workload and company specific. Until AI can perfectly predict what the market needs, or how a system will be used this bottleneck will exist.

🚨BREAKING: iShowSpeed addresses criticism accusing him of being disrespectful for not collaborating with content creators during his Africa tour in Nigeria.
Speed explains that the purpose of the tour is not streamer collaborations, but to showcase the culture of Africa’s countries — highlighting everyday people who are rarely seen, street performers with real talent, and local communities.
He makes it clear that every stop on the tour is pre-planned, time-restricted, and carefully scheduled by his crew, with specific locations he must reach in each country.
He adds that many of the creators complaining already have platforms of their own, while this tour is about giving exposure to people who don’t.
Speed says he won’t cancel cultural visits or moments arranged by locals just to accommodate influencers, stressing that the goal is to put African culture on display for the world — not to centre the tour around content creators

@100TrillionVND @MarvinTBaumann It's impossible due to IP, once relationships fail, that law wouldn't mean shit, and once again, you miss the point, we would quite happily temporarily tank a €200B company to cause $100T worth of damage to the US, its also called the semiconductor race for a reason

@The_Crack_Emcee @HistoryArcs Stalin ignored the UKs warnings, he even ignored Sorge when he told them the same thing, what saved the Soviets was reports from Sorge that Japan wouldn't attack, allows Stalin to move his 400k+ elite Serbians

By December 1941, the Brits had broken Hitler's Enigma code almost two years earlier (January, 1940). So, the idiot's big "achievement" was already really just the Nazis, being allowed to march into one Allied trap after another, and never knowing it (until 1974).
There was no way they could've won. Just like their supporters today, they're stupid morons who - beyond the obvious math problem - get too high on the smell of their own farts. Which is fitting for followers of Hitler, since he was known to be (in more ways than one) unable to stop passing gas.
And, if you doubt they couldn't win, all I have to know is this:
As long as they're crazy enough to let a weasel-y, chinless, psychic-loving murderous pig farmer define their ideal, they'll forever be too far gone to be anything more than a joke - except when attacking the unsuspecting.

✠︎ ☭ The Axis Reach The Gates of Moscow
December 1, 1941
84 years ago today, Germany and her allies are just 12 miles from center of Moscow. In just 5 months, they have seized almost 1 million square miles of Soviet territory. German scouts report seeing the Kremlin spires.

One reason Greenland is strategically important to the US is in fact twofold:
1. It’s the best place to set up anti-missile defenses to intercept ICBMs coming from Russia / China
2. It’s a very good place to set up offensive missile capabilities to threaten Russia / China
The WSJ had a good graphic out a few days ago showing the trajectory of missiles from ICBM sites around Russia to the US would fly overhead or near Greenland, which also happens to be almost directly beneath where those missiles would reach their highest points (“apogee”) which is when they are most vulnerable to interception because they are traveling at their slowest speeds.
If you throw a ball into the air you’ll see the same effect - the ball is slowest at its highest point.
And for an intelligently guided missile capable of trying to evade interception, you have an even better chance to shoot it down from a point directly beneath it since that is the closest path to the missile (i.e. least amount of warning time for the missile to realize an interceptor is coming).
This above is all courtesy of our resident rocket scientist Phil.
The US already has the right to dot Greenland with military installations, and I imagine that extends to intercepting ICBMs. Though Europe might object for some purposes.

I dumped my entire life savings into bitcoin at the end of 2022 when nobody wanted to touch bitcoin and everyone thought it was over.
I took big profits in 2025 when everyone was screaming to buy more.
Do you understand the lesson in this?

@100TrillionVND @MarvinTBaumann Means nothing when the bloke who fixes that machine is Dutch. You also underestimate our position, we've got nothing to lose.

@CardinalGuild @MarvinTBaumann It takes 100 companies to make that one ASML machine 🤡
English
@JohannesKoepl There are 2 things that we can do that would end this pantomime tomorrow.
- Restrict any further delivery of EUV machines from ASML
- Deprioritise USD through the London Exchange
You'd have every American billionaire flying over to apologise personally.

What if Europe would play as dirty as Trump does?
We could set a deadline: impeached Trump before March 31st or Europe will see all US bonds (wich are about 60% of the US bonds globally)…?
The US dollar would drop to nowhere within hours.
Let’s play!

@Serialluncher @Daractenus What challenge? Like seriously, nothing has happened, other than whatever shit pantomime we're all watching unfold.

@Daractenus Europe is last man standing. We never expected to be in this position but we must meet this challenge. This is existential. We have cards and we must play them wisely. There will be painful sacrifices. Proud to be European.

This old continent of ours, which still collectively constitutes the greatest fucking civilization ever brought forth by man, is now humanity's last best remaining hope. Proud to be European! May our union forever stand!

@PositivFuturist @MarvinTBaumann You realise the most important tech company in the world is Dutch, right?

This is delusional..
US just posted 4.2% growth while the EU is stagnating desperately.
We see video after video of massive demographic changes bringing chaos to European cities.
EU doesn't lead in AI, robotics, manufacturing - anything.
All Europeans want this to be true - we don't WANT to look to the US and say "that's the model we should replicate"
But fuck me do we have work to do.. we need to fix our borders, energy policies, we need to deport islamists and criminals, we have to assert our cultures, fix our birth rates, deregulate our economies and much more.
I don't see it as realistic at this point - the EU can't be reformed.

Wait a second. I thought we were supposed to invade Greenland to protect ourselves from Putin.
Trump’s own talking points on Greenland collapse the moment you look at them for more than five seconds. One day it is about strategic security, the next it sounds like a half baked Monopoly move mixed with wounded ego. Now the Kremlin casually announces that Trump invited Putin to join some so called “Board of Peace”, and suddenly the whole thing clicks into place.
It becomes painfully obvious that Greenland was never about security at all. It was about prestige. About not getting the Nobel Peace Prize. About a man who could not stand watching others receive international recognition while he got applause rallies and gold letters on buildings. This is not strategy. This is spite dressed up as geopolitics.
The emperor has no clothes here. He is standing fully exposed, clutching a very small knob. And everyone can see it.
At this point the options are getting absurdly limited. Either invoke the 25th Amendment, or brace for an unthinkable reality where NATO and the United States drift toward open conflict, with a trade war that drags both markets straight into recession.
None of this is strength. None of this is leadership. It is chaos and stuff for the psychiatrists. 🥼
