I thought it would belong to one of those food industry behemoths but it’s actually Independent, headquarters in Switzerland and majorly owned by themselves.
I try to contribute to things getting better, with sourced information, OC and polite rational skepticism.
Disagreeing with a point ≠ supporting the opposite side, I support rationality.
Let’s discuss to make things better sustainably.
Always happy to question our beliefs.

Did you criticize the left?
Sure I could moderate French, English, Spanish and maybe Japanese a bit, and use LLMs for the rest. Although, I am uncertain about the point of having both BuyFromEU and BuyEuropean, is there a discussion about this topic somewhere?
Yeah, I thought about it when I created my tiny food community and decided to allow any language in the rules.
LLM are able to do pretty good translations nowadays, even where former automatic translators did badly (example: Japanese to English sucks on Ggle Translate, but is much better on LLM). So I think it’s manageable for occasional moderation. You can use DuckDuckGo’s duck.ai for a free and safer access to different LLMs. I don’t know what’s the quality for languages with a smaller amount of content on the internet, though.
You used the wrong accent, it’s Hergé.
France and Belgium have a huge comics culture, with often cross border collaborations. An illustration of this is the prestigious Angoulême comics festival https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Angoulême_International_Comics_Festival.
For those who like SF and heard about the legendary Dune movie adaption by Jodorowsky and designed by Giraud (aka Mœbius) that never happened, but fed the next following generation of SF classics (Blade Runner, Alien, The Fifth Element), I recommend the Incal by the same two guys, based on material and concepts from the movie.
You would get more points if you manage to capture them and get them a fair trial that allows society to reflect on the issues that made them the way they are and maybe reduce the chance that more will appear in the future.
Ecosia is a German web search engine based on Bing and Google’s index.
Qwant is a French web search engine based on Bing but which has been working on its own index for a while.
I just found out that Ecosia and Qwant started teaming up last year to build a European search index. I hope something will come out of it.

The abstract of the scientific article
In the relentless pursuit of quantum computational advantage, we present a significant advancement with the development of Zuchongzhi 3.0. This superconducting quantum computer prototype, comprising 105 qubits, achieves high operational fidelities, with single-qubit gates, two-qubit gates, and readout fidelity at 99.90%, 99.62%, and 99.13%, respectively. Our experiments with an 83-qubit, 32-cycle random circuit sampling on the Zuchongzhi 3.0 highlight its superior performance, achieving 1×106 samples in just a few hundred seconds. This task is estimated to be infeasible on the most powerful classical supercomputers, Frontier, which would require approximately 5.9×109 yr to replicate the task. This leap in processing power places the classical simulation cost 6 orders of magnitude beyond Google’s SYC-67 and SYC-70 experiments [Morvan et al., Nature 634, 328 (2024)], firmly establishing a new benchmark in quantum computational advantage. Our work not only advances the frontiers of quantum computing but also lays the groundwork for a new era where quantum processors play an essential role in tackling sophisticated real-world challenges. https://journals.aps.org/prl/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevLett.134.090601
Random circuit sampling is a problem designed to showcase quantum computing strength. Random circuit sampling is the simulation of the outcome of quantum bits going through many randomly generated quantum circuits. So, having a computer based on quantum phenomenon, such as superposition and entanglement, is obviously a big help, as opposed to having to imperfectly simulate this on a classical computer. So much that classical super computer cannot simulate this problem in a reasonable human time anymore. They call this “quantum supremacy”.
It’s like giving a math problem to a math professor and a philosophy professor, and then demonstrating how much better the math professor was at solving this problem.
But it’s a good benchmark to compare quantum computers between them.
Overall, it’s still useless to the average server or gamer.
It was easy enough to introduce Git with a self hosted Gitea at my work place 4 years ago. I see Codeberg is based on a fork of Gitea called Forgejo, so I guess it is also good.
Don’t show this to Paris.
