Does it really? "Something seems off with the Guardian-Harris finding that half of Americans think the stock market is in decline. In a different survey, Gallup found that 62% of Americans own stocks, mostly through retirement and inve

It requires more care than people expect, so in a sense it's a trouble magnet.

I drink it. The drink-by date is best measured in hours. If you're used to keeping milk around for months, raw milk is not for you. It's great, but treat it sloppily and you'll suffer, and you don't have to be very slopp

I've worked somewhere where that would be like this... Days 1-N: Investigating. N+1: "I've made a WIP PR, who's free to look at it with me?". N+2 would often be "we've merged" but it could go differen

That's a disadvantage ⇒ they're incompetent? I thought about it, and to me it seems that ① having everything ready at the same time was not possible and ② PV ready first is the smallest problem. Consider some of the alternatives.

It's not infinitely generalizable, only to tech production issues and maybe not to all of those. Nuclear isn't expensive because of production. https://progress.institute/nuclear-power-plant-construction-...

I wonder what the sentences before and after some of those quotes were, like “all the shareholders that I’ve talked to said that if anybody goes back to growth, they will punish those companies” I have a difficult time believing that shareh

Well, he might well be. But it hardly seems to matter. If Tesla falls apart it won't be because of his insufficient insight into technology, or anything like that. Angering core buyership, firing an entire important team, such things m

That's total server use, not just AI. And the forecast is from the IEA, an institution from which another forecast has been badly wrong 14 years in a row and without a change of methodology. I hope that's a record. https:/&#

Each of us should be consistent in our actions and charitable in our interpretations, even if society at large is chaotic, inconsistent and sometimes quick to judge harshly. That applies to universities as much as to your employer and to me

EMH assumes that investors want to make a profit. Investors aren't required to want that, though, and in this case I assume that they instead want to support their favorite politician. Investors are free to want whatever they choose,

There's much to blame the Americans for and I can see why one might want to seek a certain distance. But some countries manage to tell the Americans what they need to hear about the massache in My Lai without falling into the arms of t

Wouldn't charging in four seconds require a lot of electronics and a very large number of very small cells, but be simple apart from that? (Conceptually simple, not inexpensive.)

Much trust remains. The problem is that when you and three kooks say that Google is bad, people are generally not able to tell the difference between the kooks and you, even if what you are saying is quite sensible. Sigh.

You do think differently than my beliefs… Independent of belief, "X has the following good feature" does not imply "X is a good idea" or "X is worth serious consideration". Belief is one thing, cost is quite an

Sure Google advertises. What about that? GP didn't write "advertises" but rather "sells your data".

Amazing how right you can be and still wrong. 5% of German production is about twice the projected capacity of Hinkley Point C, the only current nuclear plant I remember the name of, so that might cost maybe €60B. The same amount of PV woul
