Yes, at least Ukraine may gain some actual benefits, like fast tracking EU and NATO membership.
But of course it does not make up for the unnecessary suffering Ukrainians have endured during the war.
But for Russia there is no up side at all. NATO has expanded already, and will expand again, something they could have avoided if they had stayed at home. And sanctions against Russia will likely continue until there is a regime change that can negotiate new deals. And the Russian economy is set back at least 10 years.

Ukraine has a lot brighter future once this war is over than Russia does.

I lost my career, I lost my job, the life I was building and it's been really difficult."

Why? Why did she lose her job and career? What shitty workplace would fire her without a court judgement on the issue?
This part isn't explained in any way I can see, only that she was found in possession of what turned out to be completely legal remedies. Here being fired for that would probably fall under unjust firing, and cost the workplace about a years compensation.

USA is a shitty country where psychopathy rules the day.

I just read an article from Danish media based on information from GreenMobility a ride share company.
And they say just about exactly the same.

Actual fully self driving without a driver is expected to be introduced 2027.
If they manage that, they will probably be first to have that in Denmark. But we will have to wait and see if it's actually good enough.

My first thought was that this was a major blow to the American political efforts to hold China back, by preventing them from having the same advanced chips available in the rest of the world, and preventing them from having the equipment necessary to make them themselves.

This is generally articulated holding your fist in front of your nose and pulling it out from you face while saying "Lang Næse" or "Horn". Horn meaning the same in Danish and English, and "lang næse" means "long nose".

This gesture is an indication of someone trying to cheat but achieving the opposite of the wanted effect.
A gesture that really should be used internationally as it is a pretty powerful gesture IMO.

VinFast is a Vietnamese auto maker that only makes Electric cars.
Sad to see they have these problems, as I found it so impressive that Vietnam had its own serious EV car maker.

The model VF 6 and VF 8 have recently come to Denmark introduced a new Taxi company Green SM, which the union for Taxi drivers is very optimistic about, because they offer better base wages than the companies that are already here, and in case of customer rebates there are no deductions from the drivers pay, which apparently is common in the Taxi business.
So I really wish them luck, a far cry from your typical big American company coming here and try their union busting methods typical of USA, or decidedly illegal practices like Uber.

Also Wildberries has borrowed a shit ton of money from banks allegedly they are the biggest borrower in Russia. And they are likely to go bankrupt from this, so that would put more pressure on the banks too. 💰💰💰
Wildberries has invested a lot on this business model, where they lend to vendors that use Wildberries as their sales platform and logistics. But they have not yet reached the point where they are profitable, so I don't see how they should be able to survive this. Meaning the money invested are all lost. 💸💸💸
