I welcome the decision of the Council on our proposal to continue the immobilisation of Russian Sovereign Assets.
We are sending a strong signal to Russia that as long as this brutal war of aggression continues, Russia’s costs will continue to rise.

Europeans are waking up this morning to find the new US National Security Strategy (quietly) released. And what it has to say on Europe could not be clearer. On the „stark prospect of civilizations erasure“ for example. 👇

Our annual deep dive on China’s climate transition is out! China’s CO₂ emissions are set to remain flat for a second year in 2025. Record additions of solar and wind, accelerating electrification, and declining construction-material demand are the main drivers.

Punavihreä hallitus on suomalaisten selvä suosikki. Suomalaisten enemmistö haluaa SDP:n takaisin hallitusvaltaan.
Tavoitteena pitäisikin olla SDP:n johtama hallitus vihreiden ja vasemmistoliiton kanssa.
Lähes koko 2000-luvun jatkuneen oikeistovallan jälkeen suomalaiset kaipaavat suunnan muutosta.

This is, of course, a fascinating thread from Kate asking why Google is effectively cannibalizing its own market for both digital ads on third party properties and search ads, by effectively taking away the incentive to click through to third party sites. I have a theory as to why they're doing it.
So this ad revenue metric is indicative of such a fascinating and weird set of business decisions by Google to inexplicably kill of SEO-- and I honestly don't get how they think this is going to pay off for them in the long run.

Important to remember on occasions like this that ”AI’s parity with humans” has two variables. Answering document requests with ChatGPT might be evidence of the latter going down rather than the former up.
