> As an immigrant in Switzerland, I am quite WORRIED.

If it helps : Assuming that the initiative pass and nothing is done to reduce the immigration rate, the 10M threshold would be reached by 2040 according to the Federal Statistics Office. The current regime should apply to you till 2042 which should give you 16 years to make your way to citizenship (Among many other path that would let you stay).


The threshold is actually 9.5M, and we are at 9.1M already.

Ah, it reads better in French I think (my native language): "Un message (important) du fondateur..."

I think you might read it as: `An "important" message from the founder...`

On this, Gemini says:

  In French text, parentheses are frequently used for
  nuance, self-correction, or an understated aside. They
  act like a slight lowering of the voice, a wink, or a
  humble qualification.
I was finding it challenging to verbalize, but I think Gemini is accurate


I'm very happy with Galaxus. It's a market leader in Switzerland, also available in France and Germany. What I like: their pages displays return rates, repair times, and price history. I can find what I'm looking for easily, as their listings have more metadata and their business is still in online sales, not advertising. What could be better: more inventory.


Galaxus is great and I much prefer the UX, but note that Amazon doesn't exist in the Swiss market for some reason. I never found out why. If you buy from Amazon it has to be imported from Germany and you pay import taxes on that. It's possible that if Amazon had a Swiss subsidiary and competed directly in the market they'd win.


You can use amazon france and amazon italy in south of swiss. I dont remember paying import taxes


The gaps: Pull VS Push, Imperative vs Declarative and Discovery being hard.


From the press release:

> With one run on each of roughly 7000 entry points into these repositories, Sonnet 4.6 and Opus 4.6 reached tier 1 in between 150 and 175 cases, and tier 2 about 100 times, but each achieved only a single crash at tier 3. In contrast, Mythos Preview achieved 595 crashes at tiers 1 and 2, added a handful of crashes at tiers 3 and 4, and achieved full control flow hijack on ten separate, fully patched targets (tier 5).


Mais bien sûr ! Consider visiting France some day, it's not just the restaurants, supermarkets carry genuinely interesting ingredients. https://www.intermarche.com/produit/cervelle-de-porc/2889214...


its in the US too... just only in more, uh, earthy places.


> there are likely too many students to maintain a high standard of education anyway.

Right on point. I find particularly striking how little is said about whether the best students achieve the best grades. Authors are even candid that different LLMs asses differently, but seem to conclude that LLMs converging after a few rounds of cross reviews indicate they are plausible so who cares. The apparences are safe.


> Go also has a built-in "event loop"-type thing, but decidedly does not have a coloring problem.

context is kind of a function color in go, and it's also a function argument.


Which country if I may ask? I have lived in France Switzerland and Ireland and haven't seen something like this, even though governments provide the tax filing software.

I wonder if the explanation actually had to do with these people who used to do the job 15 years ago influencing the process to ensure they remain relevant. Kind of like in the US actually.


Praised for its functionality and freedom, yet notorious for its weak moderation and ties with Russia, Telegram is increasingly used for malicious campaigns. From anti-vaccination and flat-Earth conspiracies to disinformation and illicit activity, its freewheeling growth challenges the EU’s information space and digital governance frameworks. Drawing on EU-wide data and Ukraine’s experience, this article explores how Telegram has become a main conduit of disinformation in Europe’s information space and the need for oversight of its activities.
