Sure the forces that bring down fascist states are still there, but now we also have surveillance technology that can be used to keep control of the populace.

My cynical view is that it's mostly trade war and nationalism. If you follow the official PRC position, the chips are already made in China because TW is CN... Practically buying TW chips is boosting it's economy and hence funding

Containers and container orchestrators are complex tools. The constant cost of using them is pretty high compared to bash scripts. However the scale / maintenance factor is significantly lower, so for a 100 boxes simplicity of bash scr

The risk of a nuclear war is fairly low compared to historical flash points. From memory there were at least 2 instances where if people followed orders to the T we would have had a nuclear exchange. First one was cuban missile crisis that

That sounds like query caching... which would also align with cost engineering angle.

GPT-5 feels like cost engineering. The model is incrementally better, but they are optimizing for least amount of compute. I am guessing investors love that.

I think we can do both. We can have core of cities optimized for walkability and traffic arteries optimized for speed.

Synthetic diamonds definitely need a marketing glow up. Current names are man-made, lab grown, and synthetic diamonds. Instead we could lean into how cool the HPHT and CVD processes are and have - giga forged diamonds (gigapascal pressure o

$200 per month will get you roughly 4-5 hours of non-stop single-threaded usage per day. A bigger issue here is that the random process is not a good engineering pattern. It's not repeatable, does not drive coherent architecture, and s

This sounds nice and great in theory, in practice this does nothing against: 1. Physical and / or psychological coercion to get at your passwords. 2. Suspicion that if you are using these tools you have something to hide and either ass

I think this is a flawed comparison. You only care about speed when driving, but charging we care about whenever the car gets sunlight. I would argue for most people car in sunlight time is a multiple of car driving time. Still pretty abysm

From the simulation you linked looks like it is passing closeish to the Mars... but I do know that space is big. However, I am curious of what would happen if an object of this magnitude hit mars at 90km/s.

Per hour they will be much cheaper. Part of self-fulfilling prophecy is that per hour price is mostly inelastic, so as trains get slower and take more time the price rises. And higher price means less people take trains...
