    fwiw, it does not make sense to be disappointed in the &quot;EU Parliament&quot; as a whole for any particular decision. Be disappointed in the political groups and/or MEPs that voted in support of the decision. ...and in the next European elections, vote accordingly. For that matter, vote accordingly in the next national elections because the Council is made up of nationally elected governments and the Council needs to agree with the decision for it to become law. Those national governmen...

    the more you try something the more you appreciate professionals. I started music lessons and now appreciate what it means to be a musician. I started vibe coding and have a renewed and even greater than before appreciation for professional developers. In fact, all my experiments with vibes have lead to same conclusion on their use in a corporate environment: easy to impress up where everything is abstract, impossible to convince down where details matter.
