They have $750M revenue, definitely they can spend tens of millions in advertising .

Edit: tried to also get some info how much money EBU (owner of Eurovision) does. Seems that they don't make them public any more, which is bit sus. 2021 was last that I found and they made around $400M, and "other revenue" were I assume advertisement deals are was $50M.

Visual Studio debugger is still best thing ever. It is strange how much poorer vscode's debugger is compared to visual studio.

Even when Finland was "neutral", we always knew the enemy is in east, and if they were west, they were trying to flank.

Whole Finnish infrastructure is build on expectation of Russia again attacking us. Hopefully we won't forget that, now that we are part of NATO, because it makes us less easy target.

These new LLM models and vision models have their place in software stack. They do enable some solutions that have been nearly impossible in the past (mandatory xkcd ref: https://xkcd.com/1425/ , this is now trivial task)

ML works very well on large data sets and numbers, but it is poor at handling text data. LLM's again are shit with large data and numbers, but they are good at handling small text data. It is a tool, and properly used very powerful one. And it is not a magic bullet.

One easy example from real world requirements: you have five paragraph of human written text, and you need to summarize it to header automatically. Five years ago if some project owner would have request this feature, I would have said string.substring(100), live with it. Now it is pretty much one line of code.

GPT got all of these correct. I had to zoom on one of them.

Pisa, it is total tourist trap. Italy has way much better tourist destinations.

Old saying in is: In Internet men are men, women are men and children are FBI officers.

Edit: 4chan rules of the Internet:

Rule 29: On the internet men are men, women are also men, and kids are undercover FBI agents.
