Wenn Ihnen der Arzt sagt, dass Sie nur noch zwei Wochen zu leben haben, sollten Sie sich einen besseren Arzt suchen.
#NATO-Generalsekretär schwört Europa auf Dritten Weltkrieg ein: „Wir müssen auf ein Ausmaß des Krieges vorbereitet sein, das unsere Großeltern und Urgroßeltern ertragen mussten.“ Hat #Rutte sie noch alle?! Wir müssen diesen Wahnsinnigen in den Arm fallen, bevor es zu spät ist!

There is no more reliable proof of greatness than to be in a state where nothing can happen to make you disturbed.

Спасибо за информацию. Вы не показали самолеты. может быть, в следующий раз по телевизору?
Defensie heeft opblaastanks gekocht en dat is serious business, onderstreept @DefensieStas Gijs Tuinman. "Een tegenstander die naar jou op zoek is, richt zich op die tank. Hij richt zich op de verkeerde én maakt zichzelf bekend. Het is kostenefficiënt." #WNL

Germany is massively boosting military investments, and someone is happy about it.

Congratulations to @Bundeskanzler & @_FriedrichMerz on historic agreement in Germany to massively boost defence investment. This sends a powerful message of leadership and commitment to our shared security. It will make a profound difference in NATO’s ability to deter and defend.

If 6m people flee the country that is showing more democracy then voting.
Elon, how can there be a free, fair election that represents the will of the people if 6m Ukrainians are out of the country as refugees, 3.5m more are under illegal Russian occupation, martial law is in operation (prohibiting elections) and Putin’s bombing the crap out of them?

Replying to @KonstantinKisin
You’re losing credibility with this. Either Zelensky holds an election to prove that he represents the will of the people or he is a dictator.

A couple reflections on the quantum computing breakthrough we just announced... Most of us grew up learning there are three main types of matter that matter: solid, liquid, and gas. Today, that changed. After a nearly 20 year pursuit, we’ve created an entirely new state of matter, unlocked by a new class of materials, topoconductors, that enable a fundamental leap in computing. It powers Majorana 1, the first quantum processing unit built on a topological core. We believe this breakthrough will allow us to create a truly meaningful quantum computer not in decades, as some have predicted, but in years. The qubits created with topoconductors are faster, more reliable, and smaller. They are 1/100th of a millimeter, meaning we now have a clear path to a million-qubit processor. Imagine a chip that can fit in the palm of your hand yet is capable of solving problems that even all the computers on Earth today combined could not! Sometimes researchers have to work on things for decades to make progress possible. It takes patience and persistence to have big impact in the world. And I am glad we get the opportunity to do just that at Microsoft. This is our focus: When productivity rises, economies grow faster, benefiting every sector and every corner of the globe. It’s not about hyping tech; it’s about building technology that truly serves the world.
Community note
Microsoft's supporting paper, published in Nature, does not support the claim that they have created a topological qubit. nature.com/articles/s4158… Peer reviewers of the Nature paper expressed concern that the paper misleadingly implies that a topological qubit was demonstrated or otherwise achieved: static-content.springer.com/esm/art:10.1…

When you realize that he who spends his time on earth as a tourist, lives a good live. And that the ones who talk war end up in hell. When alive, be a tourist.

As a tourist I really like this place. Nice people, perfect beer, amazing Pinakothek. As a historian and politician the only thing I can say today is: MUNICH. NEVER AGAIN.
