Coal and nuclear cooling towers use a lot of fresh water, they try to reuse it but still between 2 to 3.5 billion gallons a year evaporates from each plant. Japanese nuclear plants don't have this problem for example because they are b

Export and import don't have to do with files? Glad they started with that one so I knew I didn't need to read the rest of it.

It's basically just bikeshedding but for comments. I don't think it's specific to this site. You get the same thing in peer review when you submit a paper to a journal. Those who don't know enough to comment on the main

Not the first new F91W-ish model in 40 years but still neat, I hadn't heard about this one yet, thanks for sharing.

This is wrong mathematically and I can prove it. Bob has a gas car. Bob is bed ridden and never drives anywhere. 0 miles a year = 0 emissions. So there exists a threshold of miles driven per year below which it's greener to keep the ga

I think that's projection.

See how defensive people get about CarPlay? Why so emotionally invested? It's buggy and sucks when you are driving someone else's car or a rental. You proved my point too, which is that it's liked because it's better tha

I don't understand why anyone likes CarPlay. It has always seemed like people like it because it's better than nothing. It's just not a good system in an objective sense.

It's a strange opinion to me, that because RCTs are too expensive, they are not done enough, so therefore we should rely on RCTs less. Can we somehow make RCTs cheaper and do more of them? The signal-to-noise ratio is so unbelievably l

Continue to exist in what form? Seamonkey aka Netscape Navigator still exists. Firefox can keep existing but not get updated enough to be a viable alternative to Chromium anymore.

How is firefox not essential to the open web?

It's the ASCII diagrams for me. Although I hesitate to point it out because they are usually helpful unlike the em dashes. Before LLMs, ASCII diagrams in readmes were a half baked mess, if one were present at all. Now every project has

Wait, so anything that's not sold everywhere is personalized? Don't think so.

Yeah but then it's basically an AI ASIC with an FPGA block inside it. Basically the less FPGA-like an FPGA is, ie the more dedicated silicon in the FPGA for the task in question, the more power efficient it is, because custom logic in

FPGAs are not power efficient at all vs GPUs and ASICs anyway, which is going to be especially true when they are fully saturated by LLM inference.

False, hybrids reduce fuel consumption and therefore emissions substantially, Toyota Sienna went from 22 mpg combined to 35 mpg combined when they switched it from gas to hybrid. Several wild claims from you today.
