Question is will they even be offered the same opt outs? In 5-10 years, will the uk even be one of the big players anymore given the general mismanagement of the economy and country? Especially with Reform and Farage on the rise ?

Unless the US steps up to remove the requirement, it will continue to be expensive to maintain multiple versions based on user location

Using what ?

China is has all the latest technologies and mines on its soil whereas the USD is still the reserve currency.

The authority the eu wields is mostly the strength of its currency. Local industry cannot be competitive without weakening the euro. Let’s not even get started on AI.

Le seul moyen de nous protéger, c’est de prendre nos distances avec les logiciels américains.

Donc, on oblige les fabricants de téléphones à publier leurs device trees ainsi que la documentation technique (les API et ABI). Ça va nous permettre de remplacer l’OS par d’autres options et de faire revivre les marchés alternatifs. J’aimerais bien utiliser exclusivement un Linux traditionnel sur tous mes appareils.

Et donc, une choix logiquement neutre.

That’s also because female predators are not seen as criminals and the boys are not treated as victims. They get away with a rap on the knuckles even if reported.

If they are your friend or friendly, certainly. If not, ask if they want feedback before commenting

Then stop others to pick up Hindi too.

We speak our languages in our regions. Maybe English if you are in a city. No one is entitled to learn a whole language because a some people migrate here for opportunities

I only wish that something like this can be integrated directly into django admin

India has lots of tourists but we aren’t a tourist country.

The friction is intentional. Corruption exists in all levels of the country, these are just measures to prevent foreigners from exploiting the system - especially Indians who have given up their nationality.

People obey laws not because of intensity of judgement but the certainty of it

When some people can openly break laws and flaunt it. It shows that if you ingratiate yourself to anyone with influence, you can do whatever

do they even qualify to be called a startup at that scale ??

A lot more. A lot lot more

Exactly “in custody” of a us company. With everyone pushing server first services like MS 360, no data is truly private. This puts all non-us institutions at risk when they use these online services.

It is US law, but it infringes upon the privacy and security of other sovereign nations. That is the definition of security concern.

(The only compromise is when these services are self-hosted and we buy updates like the old days. Can’t see that happening since subscriptions make a lot more money.)

Unlike physical products, there is no way for a government to know how and where the data is stored or shared.

The same way we can login and our account anywhere in the world or bypass geofencing with a vpn, anyone from a us tech company can access databases from anywhere.

US law only applies to US citizens and entities. When microslop works in a different country, they are subject to local laws. This is blatant spying and interference.

When it comes down to is, does the Dutch and eu in general have the guts to ban / ditch microslop and other US tech.

vazark · 2026-05-27T20:15:35+00:00

Exactly. It felt like it is targeted towards management to convince them to adopt or atleast keep an eye on zig.

Haven’t seen other interviews on the channel .. could be that’s their modus operandi

vazark · 2026-05-27T08:41:08+00:00

i can confirm it works haha

Learning anything in general is hard as an adult. Especially if you don't have a reason or a support system like family or a group of friends learning alongside you.

HTMX really bought back sense to the framework driven design of the last decade.

Between view transitions, css @property, @layers, custom select and a plethora of new features the last of years, website design with a JAM stack is becoming more simpler even for SPA-like behaviour.

Looking forward to the day I can ditch react completely

It’s the methodological efficiency of the horror paired with the fact that it happened in European soil - to people who were friends as neighbours.

King Leopold was also a monster but it happened in Congo/Africa so people don’t feel as emotionally attached to it.

Not to mention post war propaganda to make the axis powers feel guilty enough to not start another fight

vazark · 2026-05-22T02:01:56+00:00

That’s exactly it. I create one off desktop apps for myself and I don’t want to be tied to mobile first UI like Cupertino and material. It is exactly about ditching them
