Point to be noted is that Rudolf Hoss wasn't the leader of a random Nazi camp. He was the commandant of the Auschwitz concentration camp, where 1.1 million people were murdered, making him one of the biggest mass-murderer of the last c

Can you please explain to me why AI chips don't matters anymore because of DeepSeek? I thought it was just a better model, but perhaps I didn't get it?

"It has since waned as people spend less time staring at their screens: as demand for consumer electronics fell, so did that for cobalt." Stop me if I'm wrong, but the article totally missed the fact that new car battery tech

The gas prices spike has also other causes, like gas-powered electricity plants replacing or partly replacing nuclear facilities like Fessenheim in France. Gas-powered electricity plants are flourishing everywhere in the world, including Ch

I don't have a strong opinion about what happened, it may or may not be a lab leak. It's still ongoing and I feel it will be a very long and sterile debate with few scientific facts to prove anything. Granted, if the title of the

I don't know much about US, but for China it didn't last for months, 1 or 2 weeks maybe. It has been notified to the WHO at the beginning of January, on 23 January Wuhan was going full lockdown. And not lockdown like in the West,

Then the title of the article is highly misleading. Using "Scientists" instead of "Some scientists" implies that the great majority of the scientists believed in this hypothesis, and there is no evidence for that.

I think it is useful to let the employee know what are the accepted delays in this company, for future projects. But the boss or the manager should have said that earlier, at the beginning of the project, then the employee knows what to exp

I know it will be an unpopular opinion here, but bringing back the HDMI and SD card port is making the macbook much thicker and will eat up some space than can be used by battery instead, all that for ports I will never use. I wish there w

Thanks for your support, but just wanted to point out that Serbia is not part of EU yet.

It's not a big surprise to me and I think this is linked to the fact that Serbia is one of China's biggest partner in Europe. I can easily imagine that chinese companies now want to export their tech, including surveillance tech,

Illegal, okay, but is it a crime? I mean, after WWII interpol asked countries to not fill requests on nazis criminals because they did crimes of political nature and interpol needs to stay politically neutral [0]. But now, for an anti-capi

It's up to the local authorities as you said. If the Chinese government files 500 requests on interpol and the Swiss authority recognizes the requests, ProtonMail will just have to comply. But usually interpol rejects many requests fro

My guess is that the limit is human resources. The machines are probably assembled by hand and they probably need highly-skilled and specialized engineers to work on it, such kind of profiles are rare. The demand is not large enough to indu

I think one of the major aspects of this technology is that the person you are talking with appears in its real size, with the same ratio than in real life. Something you cannot do with a smartphone, except if you are referring to a project

I don't think EU will be able to put any pressure on China with food. China still has a lot of different levers in case they lack food. Remember that the US deal actually forced them to buy american agricultural products. They also ban

If France wants to make this meaningful, it also has to stop importing Brazilian beef. Soy is mainly used to feed cattle, so just banning soy imports sounds like a political move without real will to me.

It would have been weird if he didn't have any account on the competitors platforms. You want to check the features they offer, the UX... This article didn't say anything about how often he is using it.

We like the feeling because often, even if it's not explicitly said, there is a hidden way to obtain what you want. In Europe, if an administration/company tell you no, there is often no negotiation, no way to get what you want. I

As someone who lived there for more than 10 years. There are a lot of "grey areas" in China, much more than in other countries. Many things are considered illegal but still tolerated. I actually like this feeling and most expats d

Regarding the Safari issue and the need for a AudioContext.resume() call, this is due to Safari suspending the AudioContext on creation, this is probably a good behaviour but it should be resumed automatically, as explained in the thread he
