Last I poked around the finances of this, the last funding round looked impressive but then the funds which invested turned out to have suspiciously similar names to everything else about this company, so it does look somewhat like a Moving Money Around For Reasons type of "project."

Groundhog Day in France. Four days after Sébastien Lecornu resigned as prime minister, Emmanuel Macron has reappointed him. There's no government but under the French constitution Lecornu has until Monday to submit a 2026 budget.

France, in political crisis, risks having no budget

With no government and a hard deadline on October 13 for submitting the budget bill to Parliament, every passing day makes it more likely France will enter 2026 without a budget.

Just spotted Ballad of a Small Player still has tickets for a 1445 showing at Royal Festival Hall, if you like the sound of an unhinged Colin Farrell in the totally unhinged setting of Macau (shot on location) by a totally unhinged director who somehow also made Conclave #bfi #lff #lff2025

I'm beginning to wonder if there's some sort of Four-Colour Theorem for books which will mean we can figure out the minimum number we'll ever need to cover every possible border.

This is hard nonsense. Bluesky, for instance, stores the fact you went through authentication once and that's *it*

I'm going to claim New Order's The Perfect Kiss is rock so we can talk about the bit in Demme's video where Barney is very obviously counting bars in his head waiting to start on the cowbell

It works radically differently in markets, sectors, and segments. Nike, sure, but off-brand sports gear exists and there is even *legislation* about cost for some of this eg school uniform elements.

Neither you nor he can say anything meaningful about this without that context.
