>There is one EU company in the 50 of the world by companies market cap. One. Just freaking one.

And this is a good thing. All 50 of them should be broken up anyway.

>I'm in the EU and honestly it's more than frightening

I'm in the EU and I love it. It's not perfect, but I wouldn't want to live in any other place. And in the coming fight for digital freedom EU is almost always on the right side.

>I still pay for Netflix, Disney, Apple, Spotify and bbc

I have to admit that's a lot of subscriptions. Most people here are relatively rich, but no wonder people are priced out.

That is still cheaper than the average cable bill even a decade ago

My total entertainment budget is 5% of my net income.

Most of my life I was strongly opposed to piracy for moral reasons. Now I... intentionally try to own (download/pirate) content I consume and I also do this for ideological reasons. So yeah, this effect is real.

It's not perfect but it was a step forward.

It also made people realize that they are tracked like crazy (there are regularly memes about this for example) - before people reacted to this fact like you were sharing a conspiracy theory.

>there's a bug in widely used tool x"

There's a security bug in Openssh. I don't know what it is, but I can tell you with statistical certainty that it exists.

Go on and do with this information whatever you want.

I think in the context of these it’s more of “we’ve discovered a bug” which gives you more information than “there is a bug”. The main difference in information being that the former implies not only there is a bug but that LLMs can find it.

If you're a random person on the Internet, I can indeed not do much with that information.

But if you're a security research lab that a competing lab can ballpark the funding of and the amount of projects they're working on (based on industry comparisons, past publications etc.), I think that can be a signal.

Most people are also n apparently completely off-topic, as in giving advice completely contradictory to the OP (for example "always go to sleep at the same time alway") without even acknowledging that.

I try to explain this to my wife, my baby, and my dayjob but they refuse to listen.

Huh, that's much less than I expected! Apparently it's just for adult population (correctly). Apparently that varies from year to year (in 2024 it was 64%), and by race (highest in white people 70%). I also wonder how that looks when we exclude older people (let's say over 60) who more often have health problems or just tolerate alcohol very badly).

It's higher in my country so good to know that USA drinks less than I assumed.

4 month old should eat every 3-4 hours. You mentioned sleeping for 10-12h and this sounds almost harmful for the baby. I don't think I'd like that.

Thanks for your recommendation anyway. I'm sure that there are many science-based techniques to "tame" children and make child care as atomic family bearable.

If you saw our baby, you wouldn't be worried at all that he's being underfed. Maybe the opposite. They'll want to eat every 3-4 hours during the day for sure; at night they can and do just sleep through it (same as me or you).

We didn't force anything or ignore him. And you don't have to believe me, but I'd encourage you to research more for yourself if waking up at night to feed a baby is something you're currently dealing with.

>Because the threat model is one-sided - if an AI attack fails, the controller simply moves to the next target. If an AI defense fails, the victim is fucked.

This was always the case? Security is asymmetric and attacker only needs to succeed once.
