I imagine the heat could be captured and you do both, but you'd need a system to do that, which is probably more expensive.

There’s a substantial amount of evidence for FTX scepticism around form 6-12m ago, or even longer. ( https://www.reddit.com/r/Buttcoin/comments/pjv86z/ftx_just_b... ) In the mainstream news, I’m not sure,

Again, I am mostly interested because it would be representative of architectural efficiency to perform such a test. If the top-spec processor is more efficient at a given power level than another, the same applies to lesser processors as w

I imagine this is usually because these countries sign long-term supply agreements at fixed prices. This is good because it guarantees stability of demand for companies, but obviously bad if gas prices go up after signing said agreement.

I agree, if I'm buying a top-end consumer chip I only really care about raw performance - finishing a compilation run 20s faster 20x a day or running my Grand strategy game faster in the laggy endgame :P. I guess from a practical persp

Much bigger conventional army, 10 months later has yet to achieve any real progress towards victory. They may not lose, but at the very least they are doing much worse than anyone expected given the relative disparity in military investment

It's even worse than that - the youtubers don't compare like for like. They should pick a common state for comparison (eg. same power or same performance), instead it's just a free for all, and whoever picks the lower power c

Capped data makes sense - brings those few people running endless torrents and the like into line. I can easily imagine a few customers making up a very substantial chunk of starlink’s usage that way, and given inherent service limitations

But within reason, these are areas where huge returns can be made with higher performance programming as opposed to speed of development - a 10% performance increase can save stupid amount of money on hardware - and with hardware lasting lo

Thank you for the polite response - I realise I was a bit harsh. I don’t see an issue with chemical fertilisers, personally - I don’t think non commercial users of them are significant enough to be worth any consideration compared ro conven

Really? Do they at least have some kind of redeeming character? Or is it literally at the point where being able to write some kind of code is sufficient? (Am 1yr junior in Melbourne that should probably be looking around, it sounds like..)

These suggestions sound like a classic "central planners know better" attitude. Would taxing/banning plastic actually reduce waste/pollution? or would the shift to more expensive replacements (paper/wood/etc) a

This feels a lot like a more extreme version of what I'm doing now (especially the camping thing), and I'm a lot younger.. Thanks for the perspective.

Typically this occurs because bots are so bad at building up that even with all that assistance a human can still outscale them. That's how it is in most games, so even as someone who's never played this game this is closer to wha

Storing battery-tier volumes of energy in spinning flywheels sounds terrifying on scale - a cursory search indicates 1kWh ~ 1 KG of TNT. I guess it depends on the risk of an exploding flywheel, but batteries seem likely to fail in a much le

Fair enough - I will admit to finding plugins for chrome and the like for gesturing, so I can see how that's useful if it's unified across many programs in the Mac ecosystem.

Peltiers are less efficient. Ergo, in a closed room, they will generate more heat, regardless of any other factors in play.

For whom? Heavier cars are safer because they slow down less when you hit something. If you hit something sturdy enough to stop you dead anyway you’ll probably cop a similar amount of damage as a smaller car.

Yes, because telling your major customer that you’ll screw them completely at will is so good for business. Whatever Putin’s reason for the war, at this point any attempt to use it for control has spectacularly backfired.
