An engineer (IT). Born in USSR, living in Ireland. Putin&Trump are the enemies of the just and peaceful world. Trying to make humble contributions to counteract here and there; e.g. I volunteered to help evacuate people from Kharkivshchyna in 2022-03.

On "AI" subject: Decision models like Jev seem like something to keep an eye on (along side "world models" like JEPA). Both are trying to be closer to direct semantic processing of "what to do", instead of being "chat bots". Jev seems to already solve some tasks hundreds times cheaper than LLMs.

Wage growth in immigrant-heavy sectors has not increased with immigration enforcement. States with more ICE arrests have instead seen slower wage growth in construction and hospitality.

One reason so many people mistake emotion for thought may be that the language surrounding public life has shifted away from evidence, logic, and verification—and toward feeling, belief, and emotional instinct. Research on millions of books shows that this reversal accelerated after 2007.

Brent crude oil prices are now officially trading above $100/barrel up +42% in 20 days. Inflation expectations and interest rates are rising sharply again. This may translate into US gas at the pump in the vicinity of $6/gal before the end of the summer.

Pure speculation, but it feels like this is our future: * Trump's adventure in middle east would finally explode oil/gas prices. * Global economy would slow-down, but also inflation will go up. As a result of the inflation, key rates will be increased in most of the advanced economies. * ... [1/3]

I hate to say this, but EU are hypocrites: Preventing asylum seekers from reaching the EU (by partnering with countries that disregard human rights) is not "fixing" immigration. It is just a hypocritical way to sidestep basic human rights.

The painful correction for the mistakes seems to be slowly getting underway. Some realized there is no 100x gain. Some realized tokens are too expensive. Some started to short Oracle stocks. Even OpenAI engineers are coming out to say: "no, it doesn't actually replace human workers". And so on.
