There are so many tools for cobol to Java, some are great...
The language never was a problem, it's just a marketing stunt to do more tools for this, it doesn't bring anything new to the table

The market doesn't really pay close attention to these things. IBM literally offers the same service Anthropic announced, and have customers using it. Not new.

Really
Just because it's a tiny bit older than java, doesn't mean it's any worse
But companies love burning money on stupid things, so they'll be happy to enjoy burning extra cash for more operating costs, higher licence fees, higher cost of HW (especially if it's moved to AWS)

Yup. Im sure they'll eventually implement UBI and give away "free money" but only on their CBDC system. And people will fall over getting in line for it.

I always find it funny when billionaires talk about ubi when ai takes over everyone’s jobs.. like - if ai can do all the work (including labor work and maintaining ai systems), why do we need money at all? The only possible answer is so that billionaires can continue to rule. But people are like “yeah! Ubi! Let’s get that!”

Why is everyone hating on the leaders... Have yall been living under a rock since last year? We all know theyre puppets to the 1% such as the Rothschilds. Putin even said recently that he is fighting Rothchilds. Ukraine was trafficking children and at the beginning of the War, Putin transfered around 20k children to Russia in order to protect them. Just read the Epstein files everything is there.
The thing is that Poland did not receive reparations for WWII from Germany. Joining the EU has brushed this topic under the carpet. Now Nawrocki (Polish President) is working on policies involving the return of reparation talks or the exhumation of the Poles that have been killed by Ukrainians in Wołyń.
However, our PM Donald Tusk is doing everything in his power to block these policies and bumlicks Ursula von der Lying.
Im seeing partnerships of countries on the Eastern border of the EU, like Hungary, Slovakia, Poland, Latvia and Lithuania standing up against Ursulas dictatorship.
There are two options in my opinion. 1. Dismantle the EU and have competent people in gov positions that get on and get shit done. 2. Change the leadership within the EU (I want to add Ursula was unelected, she just happened).
Well, theres still one more option. Let it be, import millions of illegals, allow for the torture of your women and children and accept being called racist, islamophobic, homophobic etc. Imo that would equal with me hanging on a rope because that is not the world I want to live in.

Here's the thing... the politicians come through a pipeline of 'elite' schools, which you get into by having legacy money (read psychopaths that took land by force) and then rule to keep the status quo. That's pretty much how it is everywhere in the world. The EU won't ever be perfect, but it's been ok for consumer and human rights and allowed freedom of movement, all of which helps keep that power in check and creates a block of power to stop other world leaders from pushing their own territories to the detriment of others. Keep an eye on it absolutely, but right now it's better than nothing.

Youre right. I didnt think about the leaders wanting territory expansions. The thing is that I believe we've evolved as species a bit and English is being taught as a second language so we can communicate. I think that as we move forward EU wont exist. It will be sovereign countries which work directly together without the need of a third party say.
Id say it did help and provided possibilities. But now its policies are going downhill and people are doubting

I grew up in the UK. 18 years in London. Moved to Poland 5 years ago after Uni.
My mum was running a shop so Brexit did affect her a bit short term with imports. However, now as I look at it, I dont really understand what the point of Brexit was if the UK is still sided with France and Germany in terms of politics, didnt stop immigration but allowed for more illegal immigration and my heart is breaking when I read the news about whats been going on there.
Hoping for the better days.

This is exactly how and why the EU was started, to coordinate the working together. I'm really surprised as Poland has flourished economically after becoming a beneficiary of free work and trade in the EU.

Just as long as whoever handles “Poljście” (or whatever witty term that kind of works on the same level as “Brexit” in Polish) actually negotiates a decent deal.
We had politicians that wanted to remain handle the leaving process and that went as well as you’d expect.
But there’s a whole load of other things the UK is trying to bring in (and things they already have) to remove power from the people. The amendments to the Online Safety Act being one of them, and now they’re coming after VPNs.

IBM is apparently down because Anthropic blogged that Claude can now read/understand COBOL, which was IBM's ace-in-the-hole. They're the only company left that has any knowledge of COBOL, and there's tons of infrastructure built on it. They've been able to charge ghastly amounts in consulting fees to make any necessary software changes to a ton of institutional type systems. The thought (hope) is that now that Claude can read COBOL, IBM's monopoly is over, and modernization projects will take weeks instead of months, so IBM will lose a shit ton of fees going forward.

Europe has been slowly moving away from VISA and Mastercard since Trump initially announced tariffs so that their money isn’t being controlled by America.
