"Final verdict on Finland's basic income trial: More happiness but little employment effect"

https://yle.fi/a/3-11337944 https://www.helsinki.fi/en/news/fair-society/universal-basic...

so basic income caused more happiness, less stress. but those are not profitable things, so, no basic income in finland.


I believe they wants text browser written specifically in rust, and does not want to touch any software written in filth like c/c++.


Too bad Rust compiles with LLVM (C++) and the stdlib links to glibc (C) then.

I sincerely hope it isn't the reason though, I'm a huge rust fan myself (10years of coding with it already) and I think rust is definitely the future, but that doesn't mean all previous open source foundations should be thrown away.


the site says "100 Times safer cars", so yes, as rust makes everything automatically safer.


I know quite a few people that would prefer not having rust in their cars.


After build you have bare metal, no rust remains.


For what reasons?


It is unsightly and structurally unsound.


Because they want their car without software... ;-)

It's nice to have a software for entertainment... but it takes more trust to have some software controlled brakes


I would love to see Chinese violate patents and get away with it like apple did.


In China that's just another Tuesday. I'm not sure why you don't think you are seeing it. Now, if they export such a product to Europe or the USA, that's another story.


I often see variants like this in xml:

<item> <Name>John</Name> <Age>20</Age> </item>

or <item_John age="20"/> where john is parsed manually out of item object

or full blown up insanity <person> <item> <key>name</key> <value>John</value> </item> <item> <key>age</key> <value>20</value </item> </person>


that sounds very much like what world should be.. thankfully in my country (finland) we have these "free college", "free healthcare system", but 30 hour work week, nope, and seeing the old people running the show, never will happen..

star trek is inspirational to what future should go toward "betterment of one self" instead of getting gold.


Microsoft is also part of this battling, if you use chrome, and oh well try to search some windows api doc help on microsoft site, there will be "Try edge now! its faster than chrome".

Actually when you reinstall windows10, and open up browser, the first thing the browser does, is show some marketing about how much faster edge is than chrome and firefox.


The browser thing was really just to illustrate a starting point. I was going to mention Microsoft in the same breath, but Microsoft isn't important because they are kinda lost in the consumer space i feel.

And surprisingly Microsoft hasn't actually limited me with the apps i can use, services or buying physical products with

Today you have the closed-app store system's, restricted services to preferential devices and not even being able to buy products from one of the world largest outlets. They do this because in the past these companies have gained loyalty and now use that loyalty like cattle funneling customers away from competitors
