I suspect that just like with Search, LLMs are used for a number of different action types. One being specifically web search, one being product search and so forth. Within the web-search and product-search requests there is undoubtedly A L

See [amocscenarios.org]( https://amocscenarios.org/ ) for various modeled scenarios on what the future could look like with a collapsed AMOC. Sweden, Finland, Norway would not be hit too badly. Summers will still be warmer, b

AFAIK the IPCC are generally quite conservative on these matters. Newer research shows possible collapse occurring much sooner (Sometime between 2025-2095).

More like: Authorities will look more closely at those who don't scan, so you'll be harassed until you comply. E.g. just like how many authorities consider using a VPN === user is doing something criminal.

No, these generally use excess power during the night and windy days to store heat. There's not that much CHP production that there'd be excess, plus they can adjust those plants well enough that there's no unnecessary burnin

Heat storage can work for individual homes on the shorter scale. If you heat your home with in-floor heating (lower temperature requirements) you can have ~1-2m3 buffer tank that you heat up during the night and then use the stored heat d

The issue we have in Finland is the assymetric electricity usage between winter and summer. This is driven by the need for heating. In the past, district heating systems burned coal. Now that's out the window we haven't got enough

Geothermal heat is also not that functional in cities, you'd need so many wells so close together that you'd most likely cool down the ground enough in winter so your efficiency tanks.

Heath energy required != electricity requirement. A modern house in Finland needs around 15-24kWh a year of heat energy if it's well insulated. On the higher end for big + northern houses, and less if you're smaller and further

Not really, we're currently borderline. If OL3 goes down, and it's simultaneously cold over the nordics + northern germany and the baltics, and no wind, our industry will have to shutdown.

That is what ISPs do these days. Most botnet members don't end up spamming a lot of requests, usually just a few before they are blocked. The issue with DDOS is specifically with the distributed nature of it. One single bot of a botnet

Big problem in the US is that in many regions natural gas is cheaper than electricity, causing heat pump water heaters to be more expensive for the consumer. So everyone ends up burning more.

For the sails to be an effective means of propulsion they need to transfer a lot of force through the mast and stays to the hull. This require the attachment points to be very solid. Not something you can easily do as a retrofit. You'd

I think they mean kWh of storage capacity – your talking about your energy costs which in a battery is the round-trip cost. Battery capacity and energy consumption are measured in the same unit.
