It isn't a race. China's already lost and has no hope of winning. The reason you don't hear about it is because entirely too many people make entirely too much money pontificating over it. China has the oldest population in t

I want to downvote your comment, but it's really X and their engineering team I want to downvote. I don't want to use a third-party client to access a fucking website for it function logically. I want X to always show me the most

It's a great name. It means "fair" as in fair trade. As in not buying, or minimizing as much as you can, buying conflict minerals. First off, the people buying this or even considering it, already know what Fair Trade is, to

Not really, we'll do what we already do - leave them to die. "But oHhHHh noOooOOo, that's sooo awful, cbozeman! We can't do that !" Bullshit. We do it every single day. Every single day, someone, somewhere, starves

IBM, Cyrix, Transmeta, NEC There are more, but those are the ones off the top of my head. Not all of these companies had their own foundries, by the way. Cyrix just designed the chips, they were fabbed somewhere else.

I sincerely doubt most medical professionals will be inputting this. This is clearly designed for physicians and nurses - not people asking ridiculous questions like this.

Sapphire crystals are still used for the lens covers, which makes sense, because if there's any component of your phone you want to provide with extreme protection, it's the camera lens. A screen can work fine with a crack or a do

Could not agree more. The candy bar format is probably as good as it can reasonably be expected to get given our current technology. One day, we may have the phones from The Expanse , but for right now, an iPhone 15 or a Galaxy S23 or a Pi

2TB 2.5" SATA SSDs are $61. 2TB M.2 2280 NVMe SSDs are $63. Why are you worried about 20-30 GB again??

I think you're correct in the "right now", but I think things fall off dramatically in the next 5-10 years. NVIDIA's progress from 2018 to 2023 was insanely impressive. AMD's was too in fact, at least technologicall

I agree with your assessment on GPU sustainability. Simply put, AMD is going to have to get their shit together. NVIDIA was embraced by the AI community so long ago because CUDA isn't that tough to use. I haven't looked at AMD&#

If you're creating an AI to dissuade people from pickleball then this is truly AI alignment promised land. If, however, your AI is arguing in favor of it, then we have truly entered the age of renegade AI.

The food of 1969? I've had it. It was my aunt's cooking and my uncle's butchering - shooting a hog right in the head and then gutting it, draining the blood, and prepping it to go onto a gigantic smoker, and it was delicious.

What the author of this article seems to miss - and I'm not sure how - is that the whole purpose of this genre of fiction - speculative alternative future - is to prevent the future in the novel, not to be able to look back 70+ years

Unemployment is at historic lows because when people have been unemployed for over one year, or if they stop looking, they're no longer counted. It's not much different than China stopping the reporting on their current youth unem
