Their Apple vision ad was very dystopian feeling and to me looks like the same team did this one. They seem really out of touch. Very negative vibes in these recent ads.
Very sad news. Had the pleasure of having him be the keynote speaker at an aesthetics conference some friends and I organized during uni. Brilliant mind. RIP
For the same reason this post was flagged. Israel. Did you really have to ask? Hard to imagine google workers protesting russia, china or saudi arabia being flagged.
I would say that they all have stable user bases which is nice to see. Though some are weighted towards different niches. I recommend checking them all out.
Although his style would seem off putting, I would not discount him so readily. He is an economist with many published papers under his belt and has worked for the WEF. Whatever happens, hope the outcome is positive for Argentinians.

Sadly I don't think he cannot be trusted with credentials too much; he has been accused of plagiarism [1] and has promoted crypto ponzi schemes [2].
About his supposed academic papers; Scopus says his h-index is 0 and only seems to have 2 publications [3]. He might be claiming that for self published articles or something.
That's one way of putting it. He claims to receive political counsel from his dead dog through a medium.

So do I. I have family and friends who live or are from there. I like the country and its people.
That said, I doubt anything actually good will come out of this. Unfortunately, it wasn't very likely to be great if he had lost either though, so who knows...
Modelling natural gas consumption. I don’t think it’ll be actually useful and certainly not as nuanced as professional models for trading, but adding the necessary data to my data warehouse and then working on it has been a fun experience.
I had a globus / lump in throat sensation that was my first symptom of COVID and persisted months after. It went away somehow after I started going to the gym. Obviously can’t say if it’s connected or not, but wouldn’t be surprised if it was.
Similar thing here. Also had feeling of pressure in frontal lobe and strange taste. Intensity changed based on how much fitness time I could fit in schedule.
I’ve been a data engineer for many years and have lots of practice optimizing SQL touching many parts of the language and I still enjoy using SQLAlchemy for its tight, elegant integration with flask/django. Of course some queries make sense to optimize with raw sql but I think here, like with many other things, there’s no black/white conclusion to draw from these situations.
