> If you ask in French, it searches in French, right?

not necessarily. i often prompt Claude in German and then see the reasoning happening in English. of course it will eventually reply in German, but that does not mean that the tooling in the background was using German.

it's mostly about procurement. a lot of companies use AWS IAM for single sign on in a multitude of services.

to anyone that is interested in Tolkiens drawings and especially calagraphie I can really recommend his book "Letters from Father Christmas"

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Father_Christmas_Letters

it contains letters he wrote to his children posing as "Father Christmas" for them.

they obviously want to get a good ROI on their stock holdings and try to convince potential buyers that the company is amazing and just held back by their CEO (which definitely is not the only problem that Peloton has)

"healing" might be the most fitting description I could come up with as well for the effect his movies have on me. there is just something very special about his depiction of the world via animation. and if you look at his story boards you will also immediately notice that it's truly his vision which drives these movies and makes them so special. it's no reproducible. truly one-of-a-kind and a generational talent.

on top of that you will also filter out applicants who show some red flags when they not immediately know the answer to a problem. it's absolutely okay to not know everything. but there is a huge difference in how people communicate their lack of knowledge.
