Well, I applied for a senior role and didn’t even get a rejection email, while recommending their technology to DE enterprise execs on daily basis. From both the hiring and enterprise adoption sides, it’s easy (and disappointing) to see why

impressive! is this the same category to CopilotKit? CPK is a AGUI proxy for similar topics, but here seems to be more emphasis on linked components?

it is already super expensive if you want to get an actual work done using their max model. On a midsize project, it cost ca. €200 for my vibe coding tests to get something reasonable done (each call, each tool costs 0.05c). Their normal cl

It’s been a surprisingly emotional stretch in Germany these past few weeks. Between drastic shifting U.S. politics, the rising cost of living in our major cities, and recent isolated incidents that have rattled public sentiment, there’s a g

thank you for the post. The recommendation engine becoming generic and main page of pushed content were also the reason I moved away from Spotify Family to Apple Music family - added I was keen to see apple 3D sound which is not that great

Amen. One does need a decentralized ledger for CBDC, high performance databases are quite acceptable, as there is no problem of lack of trust in a permissined model (no systematic bad actor). If you listen to Moser (and Chaum) video, he e

You have a point here, but sadly most of the current state of art in CBDC research avoids storing accounts at Central Banks due to the obvious risk of disintermediating banking system. The points of others thread stays: what is the point of

This is actually one of the main USPs to have payment at public layer. Even USA is pushing for an open API and SDKs, one day maybe an open source protocol.

The idea here is about security of money: the money stored in the CB ledger does not lose i ts contractual value in difficult times, as it is garanteed by the central bank. Compare that to your money in your bank, which is backed at 10% wit

Great point. The control of privacy should be in the protocol and not in the hands of the authorities, if there is going to be a trust built around it. Otherwise, we have what is there today, without the anonymous cash element. There are di

The CBDCs started with a great idea: to share the stability and security banks enjoy today with all citizen and retail sector in digital format, as public layer similar to internet, between what we have today (cash) and what the future mayb

Right on point distinction. There are various models: - almost all CBDC designs are transparent (monitored and stored), since they sit on the ledger and has to be auditable by a third party. So, the only way to allow privacy is to give some

The mandate is not discsussed yet but could come. CBs are running many pilots since they don‘t know also whether CBDC would work for their incentive, since it has to be accepted by citizens and not create a shock to economy. side note, „inc

Privacy is ranked the second after security in a recent survey from ECB, so it is a known demand and design criteria for both sides. CBDC will co-exist with cash for years to come. Fully monitored CBDC will be at a high disadvantage by citi

The benefits are not that obvious and visible in a European country. In general, there are benefits and drawbacks: - efficiency: well, despite having a fast transaction time the machinery behind banking system is old and in-efficient, scary

Indeed, financial stability and crisis models are the transformation studies several central banks and also stablecoins like Celo undertake to understand how introduction a new monetary instrument would solve some issues and affect others.

Well, perhaps CBDC folks have learned a lot from Bitcoin and other cryptocurrencies, mostly on scaling and security, so literally not a database but abstract-wise a ledger like cryptos with different consensus and payment model. CBDCs today

Accounts at central banks is only one model of CBDC, called Direct CBDC, which is to my knowledge much less preferred way than a hybrid apparoach (like what’s there today), for several reasons: - managing a complexity of nation-wide banking

There are different types of CBDCs with various focus areas, e.g. wholesale CBDC (banking innovation, similar to what you mentioned) and Retail CBDC. The CBDC model that is gaining increasing momentum, despite expectations, is the retail CB

I'd be also curious to see which space (if anything left) Visa would be moving on the retail side. They have already filed a patent which could be an additional indicator [1]. In general, once a national CBDC is in place it'd beco

you're right if one assumes a linear growth, but the reality is that it has an exponential growth. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kas0tIxDvrg for a short intro.
