If subsidies are profitable, EU should do that for "Made in EU" cars. The customer won't have to bear the burn and economy/politics will be happy. US is already doing that, though without getting the benefit.

Considering nameplate capacity without capacity factor would be bad a prediction?? If I need 1GW of extra energy getting 1GW of solar would be a bad bet. Same if I am calculating the pollution generated next year.

If alternate pay is 90% lower, not big of a difference. i.e. If I lose job, I would prefer new one to pay 85% than 10%.

There are two kinds of trust, I may trust Apple to not intentionally steal data. But I may trust Signal to create a more inherently secure messenger, or I may trust Google to create technically a more secure browser. What Apple and some use

It is easy to find such reasons now that Nokia has failed. But they ruled for a decade in part because of too many phones. They had phone at each budget range and demographic. What they missed was a move from hardware centric world to softw

Do a 5 why for separation of concern and you'll find JSX is more logical. You want things edited together to be closer in code also. A single file or couple of files next to each other that decide structure, behaviour and view of a com

Yes, I also don't see the charm. JS/TS are more expressive, you can have composition and modular code natively. Also JSX is 99% HTML. With HTML first solutions, we sprinkle it with some # language which is neither simpler nor as e

As a side effect we are seeing lot of investment/innovation in 2-13B models. Considering price of 4090, 128GB GPU will be >6000 which practically no one can afford.

> chip shortage has been over for a while; now there is too much supply. Is that at 10-40nm or at cutting edge 3-5nm? If there is a surplus supply, why aren't they making more H800, there demand is more than supply.

1. Conflict of interest. Is there any alternative report? 2. 2 years is vague, do we have it in kms? 3. Which car is it against? How does it compare with Prius 2024? Also, how much investment in renewables is because of EVs?
