D'oh! Yes, ethanol. Thanks for the correction!

There really is very, very little carbon in the atmosphere, famously ~410 ppm. (Yes, that little bit is enough to absorb significantly more heat from the sun). So, whatever capture system you use, you'd need to move a lot of air thro

I always figured texture loading from disk was mostly done speculatively and during the loading screen, but what do I know. Anyway, a 5% memory bandwidth hit does not sound to me like a huge deal.

OK, you have a technical disagreement. No need to take it personally. You may be right - you probably have more experience with this particular thing than I do. I can't answer for the performance of the XB1, but I am curious what % red

"Pass through GPU configuration" means that GPU memory is mapped directly into guest address space in hardware. Bandwidth from a VM partition should be identical to that from the root partition.

Yes! I'm not alone in thinking this! I'm not crazy! (well at least not for this particular reason)

No.

Yes, and there are a lot of signoffs involved.

My dim understanding is that once you are enrolled in General- and Admiral-level security clearances, you are not quite free free to freelance your experience globally without significant limitations. The key questions raised would seem to

It's not the possibility that a simple lab accident could kill a billion people, the headline is that it "draws scrutiny".

So what's your solution?

Gain is an essential property of transistor-like circuit elements. Does this have the capability to amplify or oscillate? This seems more analogous to the old core memory or diode-based ROM.

Nobody's stopping you from returning to subsistence farming. Probably still plenty of feudal Lords out there willing to accept some new serfs to work the land.

Nope, still don't understand it. :-/

Russian parliament (Duma) members have openly proposed it on official state television.

Sounds like this one is going to appear on the network like https connections to Cloudflare.

If you develop technology that can reliably detect deepfakes (i.e., fn is_deepfake(m: media) -> bool ), then couldn't an AI be trained to defeat it?

I wonder how it respects legal web censorship orders imposed on ISPs like those of China and UK.

Chrome owns the internet because web standards have become so complex that not even Microsoft can afford to maintain their own browser engine.

Lol, Russia has a couple thousand soldiers in Moldova who haven't received a single planeload of resupply in years. If they ever actually tried to threaten they would find Moldovan, Ukranian, and/or NATO forces responding very qui

"They are also rich with untapped oil and gas fields. No wonder Zelensky won't give up." Alaska is also rich with untapped oil and gas fields. No wonder Biden won't give it up.

> Why would there be submarine searches? Are these pipelines patrolled 24/7 by submarines? The location of the breaks is in relatively shallow water, busy with commercial shipping traffic, and also next door to the HQ of the Russian

I don't really disagree with your information or analysis, but it was very unhelpful to start out accusing someone of being a "troll".

I doubt a whale can swim in water that shallow and close to shore without a dozen countries tracking it. Some kind of small underwater drone, however ... hmmm

by marshray 4y ago
Yes, and, in fact, Nord Stream 2 did not move forward. The German government simply didn't grant approval to begin operation. No underwater bombings necessary.

The most common non-Russian language is spoken by just 3% of the population. All others are below 1%.

Typical Russian rhetoric which can only attempt to whatabout and equivocate with events of 60+ years ago that aren't even comparable. (E.g. Hawaii had been a US territory since 1898, whereas Ukraine is formally recognized as a fully so

That experiment has been running for 50 generations already, by now it should have reached steady-state. Perhaps that's part of the reason that 84% of the world's population identifies with a religion.

A giant pile of scrap electronics is probably easier to deal with than a very large pile of scrap electronics that's leaching toxic heavy metals into the ground and runoff water. Most electronics these days seem to get upgraded before
