I feel it's great that people have gotten invested in energy use this way, even if it's a bit lopsisded. We should use it in a positive way to get public opinion and political overton window behind rapid decarbonization and closur

Anyone care to have a go at back of the envelope number for training energy use amortized per query for ChatGPT's models? Is the training or the inference going to dominate?

If free public services caused this kind of feedback loop, rich social democracies wouldn't have free healthcare, free education, socially provided housing for the needy etc. Or do you see housing being special in this regard?

As the house price thereabouts is determined by location desirability and affordability, an economist would say that higher insurance cost should just decrease the house price so that the same people will still be able to buy it after the i

Is there a reason to believe there will be no fire insurance available, vs it being very expensive? In principle you can have insurance against things that are likely to happen, as long as it's priced accordingly.

Not necessarily, how do I use SELinux as a unprivileged user on eg Debian?
