Yes, they don't want that. Yet they still keep claiming fear as their excuse for aggression. Pathetic.

I tend to share that position, but there's one counter argument that's not without merit at all: too much to lose. Even the worst climate change outcome would be less bad than the outcome of climate change plus some botched radica

Claimed reason. If Russia is so afraid, perhaps they would be open to a peace deal guaranteed by NATO troops stationed on their ground?

Yeah, "when have national-socialists ever been fascist!" is all I read in GP's post after I got to that part. It's just a brain crash for me (I'm German)

Needs "2011" in the title. For example the section about friction drive hasn't been true for about a decade now

Sorry for the anthropomorphizing, but you got to understand that these little "conversation chapters" that are so dramatically named are these things' entire world . Perhaps that otherwise absurd grandeur is not so surprisin

You can bury stuff like setting the time into a menu, people will accept it. They know that there will be a way to set the time. But if the 12/24 is hidden, whatever is picked as the default will drive away a noticeable fraction of t

Trying not to leave any money on the table is exactly the approach that reliably kills off nostalgia income streams. Picking off some low hanging fruit while demonstrating provable restraint can result in a huge money stream that goes on an

Any kind of fuel for giving active investors that FOMO tingle which then forces the steamroll of index funds to blindly follow. I guess the appropriation "any sufficiently advanced stock market is indistinguishable from entertainment&q

Steering towards a world full of picket fence Putins. One more reason to envy those born early enough to have lived most of their lives before..

The argument is so bad that a part of me is starting to wonder if it might be a deliberate signal from a judge under extrajudicial pressure. Like a hostage trying to blink morse while reading a message from his captors into the camera. &quo

Add to this that life in darkness sustained by microbes consuming a rock surface will be rather slow. Because any fast processes would just flash out after a boom/bust cycle or two. And presumably not just slow in terms of no cheetah v

Isn't the key difference that flammable solids have a limited reaction surface when they burn, whereas flammable liquids can be wildly unpredictable?

And this is exactly how things in large corporations don't happen. Things in large corporations who pay so well that nobody makes it through the recruitment filters and competition who's more than 2% off from being a pure assessme

Nice to see some numbers. So for the peak load situations, a Dash 8-100 would not require a battery bigger than that a short range BEV ("city", though in reality the short range BEV use case is more for the rural equivalent of stu

"And what if you need two go-arounds?" Easy: you don't try the second landing approach before the battery is sufficiently recharged to contain enough energy for the second abort. Chances are this does not take any longer than

Misleading title: they are using eminent domain to seize land for power lines to data centers. (emphasis mine) This is still quite debatable, but so much less so than the implied accusation that they would somehow sell out their privilege

I'm not a friend of nationalism, but I believe that it's a trade-off: of you want to be open to immigration, of the kind that pulls in newcomers, inviting them to become a part of the place they move to, instead of remaining outsi

I read about this so often, yet it's a problem I just never encountered. If I need super high bandwidth like connecting a display, I pick one of those annoyingly unlflexible fat cables. Easy. They even tend to feature the TB4 flash ico

Yeah, I guess in these days of hardware not getting completely outdated even after half a decade, it might well make sense to spend chip area on specialist units that are shut down almost the entire time. In the old days, when it was all ab

Yeah, I'd expect this approach to be almost universal, with the caveat that of the few who don't, many still don't get bitten. But it turns out even in the container, there are footguns that have occasionally made the news by

Is that built in protection really a filter, on code level, that sits between the LLM session and the shell or is it just some pleading in the bootstrap prompt? "Pretty please don't do xyz this is important!!!11"? The latter
