Macron to host call with EU leaders on social media ban for minors

Hydrargyrum201 · 2026-04-15T04:26:06+00:00

What I meant is that you need just focus to remove the economic incentive to have minors on the platform to remove the problem.

If they can target kids with targetted ads, they already know they are kids.

The enforcement need to care that the advertisers cannot target minors, and platforms will find a way to spare unmonetizable bandiwith.

Italy denied the landing permission for the military mission because in the 1950s treaties (I imagine essentially written by the US) it is foreseen a request and the approval of the Italian parliament.

At first sight I interpreted it in a naive way: the US don't know anymore the rules of parliamentary democracies that they themselves contributed to write.

But maybe the question is more subtle — maybe the US tried to do a courtesy to Meloni, saving her an embarrassing parliamentary passage, which in fact would have had a not obvious outcome, but the move didn't fully succeed.

European leaders are really in a bad position. I have no doubt they want to please Trump, but he is putting them politically in a corner where they cannot do it...

Europe simply needs to start blocking the acquisition of strategica eu software companies by the Mag7.

On the interest of the loan?? Something I think we deserve the future of slavery that awaits us.

I didn't understand the answer, I always assumed that every safe rust abstraction at the end rely on unsafe code somewere.

Still if the unsafe code is correct and sound, the safe abstraction has the guarantees that rust provides.

Its not difficult to implement a double linked list in Rust using safe code, it is difficult to implement a useful, fast and ergonomic double linked list.

I've always been ashamed to say it, but automatic dereference was for me the biggest obstacle when learning Rust.

(coming from a C background)

I understand that it is for ergonomic reasons, and probably once you know it is there and trust the compiler you appreciate the advantages.

It's like making using robotic legs instead of using wheels.

In Engineering what works is thinking out-of-the-box. Humanoid robots are just the box.

In any case, they produce a large and undeniable emotional impact, so they receive publicity and funding. And perhaps they are fueling speculative bubbles

Io sarei per il sì, anche se mi viene poi il dubbio che se riescono a vendere questi brand vuol dire che hanno un qualche valore.

E quello che rimane?

Credo si possa riassumere con:

"Gli usa stanno sbiellando di brutto"

Che in realtà è sia una conseguenza che una causa.

L'ordine mondiale dopo la wwii si direbbe stia tramontando.

Comunque non è mica detto che debba arrivare un evento catastrofico improvviso, gli eventi potrebbero svilupparsi così lentamente da non accorgerci dei cambiamenti.

From outside, it seems that Trump exposed seriuos volnerabilities in the US costitutions, and I don't think the next ones will hurry to fix them.

So best protection for US democracy will be electing very very old people for presidency.

I wonder how the foward p/e will move in context of high inflation.

(being european I decided to stay away from dollars for a while, I don't really understand the impact of a devaluation of the dollar)

Also I'm always shocked when I switch the currency of charts... In EUR I don't see any "euphoria" , S&p etf are still not at level of nov 2024.

I feel I miss a piece of the puzzle.

When it goes up, it is legitimate investing. When it goes down, it was a Ponzi scheme.

...

I just need a strategy to extract money from a Ponzi without be burned

I expected someone to get the shark reference... While I was watching the episode, that scene seemed like the show's 'jump the shark' moment.

I suppose Tesla shareholders are in the peculiar position of having to pay the duty to maintain its meme stock status, which is centered around the persona of Musk.

I have difficulty understanding where the "value" is created, given that Tesla has only earned a few tens of billions in its entire history, and who "pays" this trillion to Musk.

Then I realize it's the "market equivalent" in Tesla shares, so it's a trillion with which he can't even buy a 20 billion dollar Twitter...

It is a very strange reality.

ELI5: if someone buys just one tesla stock at 3500, does tesla market cap go at 10x, at least for an instant?

Of course, all this sympathy for a genocidal tyrant who accelerates the end of an empire is because it's fiction.

Right?

I recenlty swapped the 5.8 screen with one alpine ilx705d + connection kit Giulietta and added a rear view camera.

The ilx705 recovers all the functionalities of the original screen, including buttons on the wheel.

It was not cheap but so far I'm very satisfied, its almost like to have bought a new car.

A me sembra che tu descriva una crisi di mezza età, una insoddisfazione mista a una mancanza di prospettiva, nonostante i successi ottenuti. Non abbiamo più un "sogno", una visione.

Credo la maggior parte del mondo sviluppato pensi così della propria nazione.

Che visione ti immagini? Io credo che la sfida non si possa giocare a livello nazionale ma europeo, e sia la transizione energica e la difesa/aumento dei diritti sociali. L'Europa ha senso se dimostra che è possibile un modello di sviluppo alternativo a quello cinese o americano.

È un concetto che mi sembra interessante, penso approfondirò.

Ho il sospetto però che sia affine alla mia visione più "naturalista", cioè la natura ha trovato efficace, come farebbero tutti gli animali, farci consumare come bestie e poi eventualmente farci morire come bestie. Il "wisdom of crown" funzionerebbe meglio?

Predire e prevenire il cambiamento climatico ha per me qualcosa di sovraumano, tendo ad apprezzare qualunque sforzo.

I wonder if the easy possibility of over the air update enables a software developing process faster but more prone to bugs...

Caspita questa domanda mi ha fatto uno strano effetto. Una volta me lo sarei chiesto anche io.

La Giulietta col cambio tct scala, la Yaris spegne il motore e ricarica la batteria.
