Trump losing would be an epic troll then. Holding out for almost 3 years only to see your only hope crumbling away.

I mean they’ll add a few days of extra buffer to the personnel shortage.

Your comparison between phones and VR/AR is reasonable but a bit different as when windows phones were discontinued, Microsoft had pretty much lost the phone os race. Also the windows phones sucked, I’ve used them…

IMO microsoft gave vr/ar a fair chance. They might have been early, but if we are eg. a full decade off must buy VR, then it might not be worth waiting.

I mean if the goal was to discourage union membership, then I can understand why they did that. Obviously that backfired…

There goes another “red line” without any meaningful response from russia.

I found steamdb.info. According to them Godot seems to be growing steadily.

In this case does packaging mean packaging the silicon die to a processor or soc that can then be used? Or does it mean the assembly of the end product, such as a phone or laptop?

In either case it seems like a moot point to complain that this is a major issue for the long term. Shouldn’t assembly lines for said stuff should be much easier to build in comparison to a chip fab?

Also the fact that the Arizona fab only produces a small fraction of TSMC’s total output is kind of obvious. There are a lot of chip fabs, so US encouragement for domestic production has to be an ongoing effort.

I guess that could be explained with the giant ego. Due to being so smart, he understands the situation better than the mainstream media. The easiest opposing view to latch onto would then be Russian propaganda.

EDIT: I have several friends who are also smart, and as such must question all msm news. As a result their worldview is left with a void that is usually filled with more fringe opinions.

I’d guess that if he was an agent, he isn’t acting voluntarily. Instead he’s probably influenced by chinese and saudi money.

Another simpler, but just as plausible explanation could be that he’s basically a human with a giant ego that bounces from one incident to another. None of this seems very planned. Instead he seems to be acting on a whim.

My bad. You don’t need a rocket to launch stuff.

Tweaking the nuke to achieve a specific orbit might prove to be difficult. Also it’s not like Blue Origin has nukes right?

Seems like hollywood. Dangling career opportunities as a reward for constenting to unwanted advances etc.

As always the headline is somewhat misleading.

Obviously that has to be reflected in the price of the product. Presumably even more so with storage.

Also there might be a use case, where cost is paramount and the drive would experience very limited writes.

I’ve got a personal anecdote that’s not entirely the same, but I’ve bought a bunch of flash chips from china to use with retro games. Those are often salvaged, but they are also cheap and available to buy. It doesn’t matter if the chips can’t take too many write cycles, if you only flash them a couple of times.

The leader of meal team 6?

Most likely you won’t even notice some of the changes. Reasonably believable cars can already be added to films in post, so no reason why humans couldn’t be. This might not be driven only by AI, but instead on more general tech developments in vfx and such.

The same guy x:d this. Apparently a chinese university has replicated at least the diamagnetism claimed in the paper.

Shouldn’t a different algorithm that adds a some sort of separate logic check be able to help tremendously?

Maybe, but it might not be that simple. The issue is that one would have to design that logic in a manner that can be verified by a human. At that point the logic would be quite specific to a single task and not generally useful at all. At that point the benefit of the AI is almost nil.

Good question, that one can only speculate on. IMO it’s a two part question.

First is that newly built nuclear plants are expensive. So the question depends on if we bite the bullet (build the reactor) today or in 2070. One built today will produce cheap power in 50 years.

For example in Finland we have reactors from 1980, that make up the backbone of stable energy production in our country. Those are going to be kept online till the 2050s. I’d argue at that point the cost per kwh will be mostly dependent on maintenance and fuel, so relatively small.

Wind and solar cannot reap the same benefits if you have to replace the plant every 20 years.

Storage is a completely separate question that is not taken into account when new wind farms and such are being built. If one was to account for storage today, the cost of renewables would be much closer to that of other means of production.

Also in the future, if storage costs keep falling due to billions of R&D money, similar effects could be achieved in nuclear via serial production and scale.

EDIT: Just read you have studied this stuff for real. Then ignore most of what I said, as you might know better :D

Fortunately the nuclear reactor can be operated for >50 years :)
