Been going down the rabbit hole of finding running apparel made in Europe. Willing to pay a premium, but does a cotton T-shirt really need to be 120€?

Mei Lin Sichuan in Helsinki keeps it simple—plain space, calm vibes, soft ethnic music. But the food? Bold, flavorful, and just the right heat. The eggplant & tofu Sichuan style is a must. No frills, just damn good food. Perfect lunch spot. #HelsinkiEats #Sichuan #TastefulWanderer

AI coding assistants are good... until they meet a codebase with no design pattern. It's like asking a GPS to navigate a maze with no exits. Bad code is still bad, and no AI can fix that mess... yet! 🤖💻 #CodeStruggles #AIProblems

Challenges with privacy-safe alternatives. Gmail: 15+ years, zero failures when I needed it. @ProtonMail: less than a month, one failure when I needed a link for a meeting. 🤔 #PrivacyIssues #TechWoes

Let’s GO!
It is time to restart Europe’s innovation engine.

We have the Compass.

We have the political will.

Now, what matters is speed and unity.

Because the world is not waiting for us.

We want technologies and products to be created, manufactured and marketed in Europe.

And we must act now.

Our new Competitiveness Compass is the plan for Europe’s productivity and growth. ↓🧵

Seriously, @pinksky.app? You build on #atproto, a protocol all about decentralization and privacy, but then rely on Google Analytics? You couldn’t find a more privacy-focused alternative?

Looking forward to this.
Europe has everything it needs to stay in the economic race. But we have work to do.

Tomorrow, we will present the Competitiveness Roadmap, which will drive our work for the next five years.

Our plan: to make growth faster, cleaner, and more equitable.

One issue with ditching major social platforms: alternatives are expected to be free. Who will use @bsky.app when VC funds dry up or ROI isn't met? We must choose: pay with our data or our money. 💡 #SocialMedia #DataPrivacy #TechTalk

On a mission to switch to more open-source or European-based services! So far, I’m loving @bsky.app, @proton.me for email, and @firefox.com. Honestly, it’s not that the ones I used before were better—I just stuck with them out of habit. Time for a change!

Not long ago, I applauded AWS for how quickly they made Meta’s LLaMA model available post-release. Will they bring the same speed and accessibility for DeepSeek? 👀

It’s not Reddit revolting against X, it’s the people on Reddit. The power of the people is real—but let’s see how long it will last.

@bsky.app won’t thrive if it’s just a bubble for extreme leftist takes. When @github.com asks what makes open source successful and it’s drowned in anti-capitalist rants, it alienates the middle ground. Balance is the key to growth—let’s build, not divide.

A famous YouTuber goes out of their way to act kindly in public, knowing a brief moment could be the best in someone’s life. Meanwhile, others with massive influence spread harm, then blame the audience for ‘misunderstanding.’ Influence is a responsibility.

Built a service to fetch GitHub data: no API docs, no Googling, wrote maybe 10% of the code myself. AI dev tools aren’t coming—they’re here. And yes, they’re going to replace developers. #dev #ai
