Iron Dome probably helps.

I did not say it is free, but the price to performance ratio is quite good. Cost however is increasing slowly but steadily which is a bit scary.

Basically everyone speaks some English, wouldn’t have been an issue. And I am not saying everything is perfect, just that there is no better alternative.

In Switzerland we don’t really have a supreme court in the sense the US have one, parliament decides if they follow the constitution or not. The federal court only decides if the lower courts applied the law correctly. They don’t even take cases with plaintiffs and defendants.

Not sure about social policies, for example homelessness exists here only by choice. Every citizen will get a roof over their head if necessary.

Medical insurance could be better but on the other hand we have one of the worlds best healthcare systems (for which I pay 200 bucks a month with a deductible of 2500.-).

And if the politics are conservative, which can’t really be as the conservatives have below 50% of the votes and results are usually determined by what the center party wants, that is what the people want (we all vote every 3 months on various issues) and I will respect that.

And even then, Germany may soon be controlled by CDU/Afd and I seriously doubt anyone would want to live in that kind of Germany.

Not really. I live in Switzerland, thing is, there are no countries that surpass it in terms of safety, income, social security and political stability combined. For me at least it is the perfect country to live in.

I would love to but the explanation is private.

Yep, the swiss government. Complicated is probably the best word to describe it. We are a very decentralized country (which makes sense for a country that was founded as a coalition to fight the royals that oppressed its people, none of those partners want someone to rule them) so every canton (state) does a lot of things differently than the other ones. But it is nice to see that after years of neglect they try to actually push digitalization by establishing common standards and systems.

I work for a company which creates software for the government. Super exited for more OSS projects.

You see them as positive goals, other people see them as advantages to loose. To foreigners, to climate protection, to „lazy“ people. They have a privilege they want to keep.

Just hold volume up and power for 3 seconds.

I bet it isn’t all sunshine and roses but hasn’t El Salvador quite a bit of success by going absolutely crazy against the cartels?

ChatGPT Plus and Github Copilot…but less every day. They just don’t keep up enough with current APIs and are often confused and unable to actually provide useful solutions.

I mostly use ChatGPT Plus as a Google replacement nowadays. And Copilot as a, sadly, mostly useless autocomplete.

Now figure out how much that is in lost revenue and write a headline like „Microsoft to lose economy one million gazzillion $“.

Not every country has the same relationship to their government. In Switzerland for example our government does not know what we own and have earned, we declare it ourselves. It is fully digital but still takes longer than 5 minutes (it usually takes me around 30 minutes with an income to declare as well a some stocks and other things).

I guess the US has a similar relationship to their government.

Maybe, remember the 80/20 rule, and we are most likely not even at 80% yet.

I use LLMs daily to code but the more complex the issue is I try to solve the more work I have to do to get it to actually produce what I need. I feel like at some point we will get to where UML failed…it will just be easier to write the code.

But I don’t like writing long Linq queries or Angular templates or whatever, it does that quite well (70% of the time it is 70% correct or so). So it takes over the part of coding I dislike.

So no just being able to write code might be unnecessary but that’s like 10% of my day.

Our software uses ML to detect tax fraud and since tax offices are usually understaffed they can now go after more cases. So yes?
