We Are Now Getting Good Signals From Europe About Europeans’ Readiness to Step Up Pressure on the Aggressor – Address by President #Zelenskyy 27.01.2026
Extract
It is crucial that this pressure targets, in particular, russia’s tanker fleet, the entire infrastructure of russian oil exports. This will greatly help all of us in Europe if russian revenues are cut even deeper.

Idiocracy is coming - Governo tramite intelligenza artificiale? L'amministrazione Trump prevede di redigere regolamenti utilizzando l'intelligenza artificiale
Il Dipartimento dei Trasporti, che sovrintende alla sicurezza di aerei, automobili e oleodotti, prevede di utilizzare Google Gemini per redigere nuove normative. "Non abbiamo bisogno della norma perfetta", dice il procuratore del Dipartimento dei Trasporti. "Vogliamo che sia sufficientemente buona".

@redflegias il problema degli sviluppatori, in tempi di servitù digitale, è che la selezione lavorativa è avvenuta sui profili più adatti a gestire le piattaforme USA. L'inversione di tendenza sarà l'aspetto più difficile e costoso, ma costituirà un investimento utile e irrinunciabile per il futuro

Lato aziendale invece: quello è un problema, e oltre a quello l'utente medio. Nel 90% dei casi excel/word può benissimo essere rimpiazzato. Non parlo di chi usa macro o fa analisi finanziarie. Però appena lo proponi, sai bene cosa succede e come si scaldano gli animi solo perché cambi un icona a un pulsante.
È proprio cosi, in altri post facevo vari esempi.
Io sono sopravvissuto benissimo per 4 anni con Libre Office, pur facendo sistemista e Project Manager.
C'erano alcune funzioni in cui era un po' farraginoso, ma per altri versi era più snello.
Ci ho gestito alcuni fogli xla di log da 1 milione di record in ogni tab, quando Excel 2016 non li apriva neanche. Per dire.
@mau il Politecnico di Torino ci è riuscito. La tcnologia c'è, il problema è trovare (e pagare) le persone in grado di farlo partire e per gestirlo al meglio.

L’aspetto dirimente è (per questo caso) riuscire a mantenere un’infrastruttura interna, il che non richiede solo hw e sw (€) ma anche human-ware. Che nella PA puoi assumere solo in corrispondenza di congiunzioni astrali e con stipendi poco attrattivi.
L’alternativa per le università è appoggiarsi a Cineca che ha una QoS non eccellente e non consente un buon controllo su feature ed evoluzione

> anche human-ware. Che nella PA puoi assumere solo
Sì ma la scelta di sistema non è assumere nella PA gli informatici, ma far lavorare per la PA quei fornitori che si avvalgono di veri informatici e non quelle aziende che chiamo "configuratori certificati di cloud USA".
Queste aziende possono avvalersi di personale meno qualificato perché il know-how è tutto statunitense e in tal modo alterano il mercato del lavoro
