Truly don't get it. They are already the only issuer of the OG UK stablecoin aka the pound.

Loved that one. Especially the part where they didn't plan for luggages on the high speed train to the airport because MBS is not aware that people have luggages.

Ah ok weird. Decentralization without forced monetization is what anti-crypto people (of which I am one) should want really. Very confusing.

Any way you could also post the regular link for us subscribers? Otherwise it tells me the link is not available anymore and doesn't try to open the ft app. So frustrating when I think I'm 2 seconds away from reading those sweet sweet articles! 😊

OP is peeved about the yglesias follow or the decentralization?
October 4, 2025 at 1:43 PM
Yes. Next question.

And this is another reason why we should be very careful in deciding if those technologies should be implemented at scale. Pie in the sky predictions for a glorious future VS present and permanent destruction of our environment to facilitate meeting summaries.

This is the whole training vs inference cost debate. Inference ultimately consumes vastly more resources overall than training because it never stops. Even the lower end estimates (from Google specifically), when adjusted for the planned usage, overrun training completely. 1/2

Thank you. Sobering read. Feel it's very similar to the rest of the meat industry though (see L214 reporting from slaughterhouse, meat blender bound male chicks, the entirety of the milk industry resting on the back of veal slaughter etc.) which does not diminish the suffering of the kangaroos ofc.

I'm confused by this. How is it different from other meat consumption ? Are they also seeking a prohibition of argentinian/brazilian/US beef ? New Zealand lamb ? French poultry ?

Just to be clear: please do put Johnson in jail.

Where have you seen that France actually enforces those laws? For one public example where they have been (Sarkozy who is still not in jail mind you), there are a lot more where they weren't (every real estate deal in the south basically)

What specifically prompted the hate? 😃

What type of sand can be used for those batteries? If it's desert sand then no issues at all of course. But if it's the same kind as is used to make cement for example, that would be a massive issue indeed.

My point being Macron is culprit in all of this and the real heroes are the voters who showed up in spite of the terrible choice offered to them.

The second of which he had built up the far right for 5 years by adopting their talking points, enjoyed the republican front to get (barely) elected, and promptly turned his back on it to govern with the far right.
August 20, 2025 at 4:00 PM
Giving too much credit to Macron here... He's actively governing with the votes of the far right.

Oh you're here to bring that sweet sweet X energy. Gotcha.

Am not in Europe so not particularly relevant 😜

Yes of course it's all good news - was just highlighting that it's relatively minor in the grand scheme of things. And that 70% is not coming down that quickly unfortunately.
August 18, 2025 at 11:02 AM
But without further electrification of energy consumption, it does not mean much unfortunately. Europe for example is still 70% fossil fuels for transportation and heating.

Zen browser is also very nice (but Firefox based)

Tried it and liked it - well done. Also I got stuck in a loop where I could have scored infinite points, it just kept giving me the same 4 letters in a loop.

Might be a stupid question but are there no substitutes that are supposed to fill in immediately? This is the case in most parliamentary democracies that you vote for someone AND their replacement at each election.
