Even if they wouldn't have made the 32 team bracket, these Cinderella stories are propaganda like the NCAA uses to monetize "student athletes". It's an excuse to squeeze more money out of the brand with a lower quality p

Not really. In practice, skipping the line is THE approach. How many times do you hear people say to fill out online job postings? Never. It's just scaring off good/bad candidates and bums who dont have an employee referral. It&#x

You forgot your $3 payout from the class action lawsuit when the company STILL gets hacked and the exec bonus pool increases because the settlement wasn't "that" bad.

Liebreich hates green/hydrolysis because it's much more expensive (due to inefficiencies) and wasteful of green electrons compared to final consumption alternatives.

Yes. Biden did it in his last month. Disregard this parent's bias. As I mentioned above, it's not fringe to ban Chinese hardware for security concerns. They've been surreptitiously planting undisclosed control equipment. [0]

Good luck. The renewables overbuild required to firm baseload demand for a datacenter is insane. You need something like 4x solar and 1.5x storage in a 10hr battery. Respectfully, the laws of NPV and IRR hurdles don't matter in Chinese

Profits still ain't easy. Cheap gas is great, but 2.67GW of new build natural gas in this market will cost $6-8 billion in fixed costs. You need wholesale pricing of ~$50-60/MWh ... OVER 25 years! ... to recover just the fixed cos

Rest doesn't make sense either with the parent's tautologies and self-counters. They seem to argue for it and raise the challenges. ~"Speed doesn't matter unless you need it." ~"LLMs can be good, but if you don

That's a strawman. Even so, you're "having trouble" acknowledging a singular fact that calls a claim into question? Is two facts the magic number? Three? Why is one insufficient? It'd be more effective to offer an a
