Nowadays they use the 2021 version of the Canyon Endurace CF SL 7. And the Shimano neutral support team is used in most World Tour races, not only in the Tour de France.

The Shimano neutral support team has a list with the materials each team is using, so they can quickly get the correct bike from their car and hand it to a rider if needed. You can see an example of the list here [1]. For example, you can see that they know the pedals used by each team.

I had a feeling it was all the world tour races, but I didn’t want to speak out of turn. I think the only equipment they account for is the pedals, since you’d need them to match to be able to pedal at all. I know they have a few sizes of bikes and on top of that a dropper seat post in every bike to adjust for height.


The dropper is the reason they stick to older models.


> The most expensive one was listed for 13 million.

This one [1]? It's a huge villa (not on an island) plus 2 islands for that price, so not really comparable.

I found a more representative example of an island with a house that is currently for sale [2]. It is listed for €1.5 million.

Found another one at 8 million and is on an island:

https://www.quotenet.nl/vastgoed/qasteel/a62814634/luxueus-p...

This was in 2024 so likely valued around 9 million by now.

The home you listed at Funda comes in at €42000 per square meter which is unheard of for The Netherlands. Not even Amsterdam Center comes close. These homes are one of the most expensive pieces of real estate in the country.


According to the description, that second one is connected to water, electricity and sewage, so that answers that question. No need for a septic tank.


Note that for the second, that's not really a house, it's a boat (woonboot). It floats. The page lists the legal requirements for any replacement boat new owners may want to put there.


>Decathlon switched on Wero on decathlon.de on July 20, making Germany the first market in the French group’s international footprint to carry the European payment scheme.

This is not true, it has been available on the Belgian website (decathlon.be) for months.


What do you mean with "then took the scans home"? Anthropic et al didn't buy all the books in the world and kept them for themselves.


Correct, they torrented them. I just wanted to stick to the library analogy of the parent comment.


Therein lies the rub: they didn't buy them... They pirated digital copies of them.

See, e.g.: https://www.theatlantic.com/technology/archive/2025/03/libge...


Only some finishing touches on the inside in 2027 and 2028 are planned.


For some use cases, AI has been profitable for at least a decade.


The last few years, cycling and triathlon have been experimenting with upto 120g carbs intake per hour. Last year, Cameron Wurf ate 200g carbs per hour when he broke the world record for fastest bike split ever in a triathlon (which was broken again a few months later).


a 2025 look at elite triathletes fueling at https://www.triathlete.com/nutrition/race-fueling/ironman-wo... shows that norwegian athletes are ingesting higher amounts of carbs (~180g/hr bike, ~120g/hr run - 2 males, ~150g/hr both run & bike - 1 female) especially for the bike portion.


(2012)


actually it was published as a chapter in "500 lines or less" in 2016: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=11796253

the text is based on python 3.5 which was released in 2015

Oops, I went by the publication date of the book


where did you see a publication date of 2012 if the book was published in 2016?


This might seem weird coming from a car manufacturer but Skoda is a big sponsor of cycling races, most notably of the Tour de France and other ASO races. And as explained in the footer, they started out with building bicycles in the 19th century.


Your analogy to computer architectures doesn't make sense, unless comparing GPT-like LLMs to different LLM architectures like Mamba or RWKV. It indeed wouldn't make sense to not teach about Mamba or RWKV in an introductory AI or LLM course.

AI is much broader than LLMs alone. Computer vision, RL, classical ML, recommender systems, speech recognition, ... are still part of AI, just not very visible to the average consumer.
