On the contrary, I cannot understand how people are seriously using LLM outside of software engineering without account-wide memory.
When I ask things like "what do you think John should do next on project A?", I don’t want to have to explain in detail who is John, what is project A and what John was working on before.
Security-wise, having a Claw doesn’t seem so different from having a traditional (human) assistant or working with a consultant. You wouldn’t give them access to your personal email or bank account. You’d set them up with their own email and a limited credit card.
Here we are not talking about a « real hyperlink ». Ads are just showing the vanity URL, very much like they could show some text or image. Browser cannot protect users if they click on something that resembles a link without being one.
I live in Paris, I have 2 small kids, and I don't have much time on my hands (founder). I go to work (5km) by bike every day, whether it rains, snows, or worse ;)
French company in Paris:
- 600€ /day for a good developer (a few years of experience in stacks related to our needs)
- 700/800€ for a more senior one (someone that can very well train the rest of the team or handle complexe features by himself)
We have built a full digital bank on AWS serverless here. Lambda, S3, DDB, SNS, … no switch, we built it from scratch.
The peace of mind is one of the biggest pros. So we can focus on more payment related problems. The ease to build an event driven system is also a plus.
The only thing I regret is DDB. While the technology is great NoSQL was a poor choice for us. But at the time it was hard to attach anything else to a lambda without a heavy performance drop.
I am currently in the exact same situation, also in France. And it seems to me that the more we see the progress that has been made on gender equality (by simply talking to your parents… or looking at the US) the more we see the long road ahead:
- why do I have to leave my wife and baby alone at home for many weeks?
- why do every nurse, pediatrician or midwife makes you feel like a outsider (sometimes with this nice condescending remark: « Oh nice, I see that the father has came »)
- in many maternity, why do fathers need to fight to stay with the mother and baby (in France, some I know literally hid in the closet so they were not kicked out in the evening!)
- why do I need to go to the women restrooms and face judging looks simply to change my baby?
The worst of it is that, in the end, it sometimes feels easier to fit into the mold and be a bystander in your baby first months. But I am fighting hard this tendency.
I run a small bank in France and we cycle the whole card everytime: numbers (called PAN), expiry date and CVV. The costs with Visa, manufacturing partner and processing partner is negligible (compared to keeping the PAN).
Every bank I know in the EU is doing the same.
On Android, this has been a project in Europe for a few years, called SoftPOS, that should be coming live in coming weeks/month (ie. be able to acquire a contactless card payment using only your phone- no other hardware).
Apple declined to be part of it and thus it was expected that they release there own version soon.
We do it a bit differently (French company).
Since the only cookie that is endangered is the « third party cookie », it is very much ok to store anonymous session information in a first party cookie for all anonymous visitors.
So we store page views and utm there, and capture this data in the datawarehouse when (and only when) there is a conversion.
This is also working with returning visitors (who most likely kept the first party cookie).
Anyone living in France and knowing how Emmanuel Macron has behaved those past few years can say without a doubt that this article cannot be further from the truth.
He has been scorned several times for using English too much, eg for diplomacy between non English speaking countries

Well, considering CPL is the origin of C, and that developing CPL was indeed « a damn stupid thing to do », it is fair to say the title has something to do with C.
Don’t get me wrong, it is clickbait anyway.
There is also a similar and very good project funded by the URSAAF and the DGFiP (the two main entities in the french tax system) : https://publi.codes
IMO (I am not part of this project) it is more interesting as it is language agnostic, easy to use for everyone (based on yaml) and more importantly, it is starting to be implemented in the government actual tax computing system.
I’m sorry but no: a 30k salary does not cost the company 80k! It costs around 41k, or 49k if you take into account employee taxes (here is a simulator from the French government: https://entreprise.pole-emploi.fr/cout-salarie/).
« Comité d’entreprise » are for 50+ employees and not 20.
What’s the use in throwing around fake numbers just to make your point?
Even if that sure must be a nice place to live, that is the first time I heard Sophia Antipolis being the « Silicon Valley of France » :) Yes France startup ecosystem is highly polarized around Paris. But hey, just like Silicon Valley right? That’s a very different problem.
