You're likely not an electrical engineer by training so I will assume you don't know much about power generation and distribution. (It's worth noting my training in this field is nearly 2 decades old so I'm a bit rusty b

They have like half a trillion in cash on the balance sheet. I'm sure they're going to scoop up a bunch of value in the coming years. Whoever takes over has a hell of a war chest to work with.

Cursor/Cline/Windsurf are my recommendations for clients. For models stay away from Sonnet 3.7. I find it just lies to you. I'd rather you a slightly less capable model like Sonnet 3.5 where I know it will just make mistakes

Sure, Spousal visas make sense. No prob. I also said that there needs to be a seasonal farm work visa. It was an off the cuff framework but yes, those things make sense. Your derision is not really that becoming.

Sovereignty may have been an imprecise word choice for sure. However, I do not think having 10's of millions of people in the country without legal status who can be easily abused is 'a good thing'. I also don't think am

They count toward the electoral college in the census. There is some recent analysis that suggests non-citizens give a ~20 seat advantage to 'blue states' in the house and electoral college. I'll see if I can dig up the sourc

Let's do another time warp. It's 2000, Bill Clinton is about to wrap up his second term and has deported more people in that term than any president ever at nearly 7,000,000 deportations. Trump barely had 2,000,000 deportations in

Use claude 3.5 if you have detailed instructions that you want it to follow. I've found over many hours of using these models that 3.7 loves to go off-script no matter how many rules you provide.
