"When things need to be done quickly." And they say Germans don't have a sense of humor. 😉 

The German company which built the lift used in the recent Louvre heist is using photos of the scene as advertising. Well played! Props to the Böcker Maschinenwerke GmbH social media team for this gem. 💎

“The European 996: 9 hours a day, 9 days every fortnight, and only a 6 week summer vacation”. 🤣

Damnit, that’s good…and I’m a bit miffed I didn’t come up with it. 😉

Props to everyone’s favorite new European VC, Henrick Von Aaldenbörg Johansson. Well played sir. 👍🏻

Of Europe's top 10 universities, only two are in the EU, with those two both being in Munich. 🍻 

The area of southern Germany and Switzerland - with an axis of Zurich and Munich - is continental Europe's best chance for having a vibrant deeptech focused region.

"How do we know that humans are general intelligences? By telling their story. Human thought doesn't consist of mechanically converting motivations into actions, prompts into output. It's mainly about choosing motivations. Just as science is not extracting theories from data, it's seeing a problem, guessing explanations, criticizing and testing them." - David Deutsch

Deutsch expressing some skepticisms, and admitting he's been wrong a bunch of times. Sam too. Worth watching.

"Every photo, every message, every file you send will be automatically scanned—without your consent. This is not about catching criminals. It is mass surveillance imposed on all 450 million citizens of the European Union."

The vote on the EU's Chat Control bill has been delayed, but its supporters will keep trying to get it passed. The proposed bill is a major attack against privacy and part of a troubling, concerted, and ongoing effort to rollback personal freedoms in Europe. Such legislation should never see the light of day.

The West voluntarily giving up leadership in nuclear is one of the biggest own goals of the past 50 years. Useful idiots sadly did what they do. 

The West needs to push significantly harder into solar and batteries…but has been largely half-assing it instead. ☀️🔋⚡️

Nice primer on rare earths here from Ed Conway. REEs aren't actually all that rare. It's the regulations around mining and refining (and the byproducts of that refining) REEs that keep production levels low in the West. That's going to have to change asap. ⛏️

Nice map of the Swiss quantum ecosystem from the good folks at Swissnex. 👏🏻

Dark mode is not really a more sustainable experience. This is theater. Europe loves performative acts of virtue signaling that hinder more than they help. It's death by a thousand inconveniences, but feeling good about it.

With over 35 years of experience in the super yacht industry, I am a passionate business development specialist and entrepreneur who helps clients achieve their goals with innovative and bespoke technology solutions. I am the managing partner at VFA Land & Sea, a company that offers consultancy and technical management for luxury motor yachts and estates in the areas of audio visual, IT, communications, security, and HVAC systems.

I started my career as an electrical and electronics engineer at Honeywell, and then became the first modern day ETO for super yachts in 1994. After working as the technology manager for a fleet of yachts that included Ecstasea, Pelorus, Luna, and Eclipse, I founded Bond Technology Management in 2006, which now has a staff of 50 and offices in six locations. In 2019, I also launched a new venture to improve the air quality and health of yacht owners and crew. I love working in this industry and having a team that makes a difference.

This last quarter will lead Bond TM into our 20th year. 
It was 20 years ago AVIT consulting started with just an idea and the drive to start something I believed it for our industry. From there spawned a number of innovations like AVIT support, AVIT training which were all new and breaking new ground. Some said it wouldn’t last others got it and supported me as a fledgling business. 
I still wake up with the same passion everyday. 
Anyway with startup nerves ? I am happy to help/ talk.

Our ClimaWISE software opens the black box on a dedicated dashboard and shows everything you need to know.
