My own view is that we should build more, and that new buildings should be of a higher quality than existing buildings in the area. The exception is if the existing buildings is very new, in which case equal quality is acceptable. Further

For battery electric vehicles there's also the hidden savings of having the technician coming to your home, which I believe is far more prevalent for BEV than ICE.

Don't forget kettles and space heaters. Also, visiting vacation homes or cabins where the owner doesn't have an electric car leads to very long charge times.

Is there anything we can do deliberately to use gravitational lensing other than aiming a telescope at a part of the sky where this is happening by random chance?

"you" refers to GP, so it's literally given.

Do you avoid tourist attractions and cities so that you aren't included in other people's photos? Even though I'm not an Apple customer, for example, I'm sure they could infer much of my movements from their photo databa

1280x1024 at 60 Hz is 78 million pixels per second. Color interpolation and Z buffers multiplies the number of values you work with by 4. Even if there are no overlapping objects, a 333MHz CPU would have to spend just 1 cycle per value to k

Creating a valuable fiat currency is easy. If you pay your kids in your own currency for chores, it will initially be worthless. If you however declare that hours spent on YouTube must be paid for in chore dollars, you'll suddenly see

There's no special "no work" detection needed. a.out is calling the write function for the null device, which just returns without doing anything. No pipes are involved.

If we're talking wages here, what are the options exactly? Is there anything bigger than 401(k)? This is ignoring charity, which I believe is available to anyone anyway.

It seemed to me that was still just a single prompt, based on a pre-existing image painted by a person. Though it uses the same functionality.

An important caveat is that the model isn't actually limited to generating full images from a single prompt, even if this perhaps how the author is interacting with it. The model can also be used for editing existing images, so you wo

I think they need to build a stronger case for their CO2 to death conversion rate. It looks like they just want us to accept that a thousand tonnes of CO2 emissions causes one death.

This sounds like it involves a lot of labor and transaction fees, and perhaps some liability. What would be the returns if I paid someone to do all that?

Are you receiving letters written in third person rather than second person? Or in a different language?

Webex will by default listen for ultrasound emitted by some video conferencing devices for easy stop. If you disable this, does that change the results?

It does imply to some degree that the entire geometry of the UI isn't stored in GPU memory. It's possible to store an entire UI, with text and all, in GPU memory and render it with a single call (e.g. glDrawElements).

Yes, looking at my comment again I see I wrote 40 x 10 = 40, rather than 400. That's closer to the total energy use of all proof-of-work cryptocurrencies, and not a fifth of Bitcoin alone as I suggested.

I think they're talking about measures in the mathematical sense. It measures something real, but a difference of one IQ point doesn't mean the same thing across the entire scale, so you can't just sum IQ point differences.

They also offset shares created for stock based compensation. It's common for the number of outstanding shares to increase even in quarters companies do buybacks, because stock based compensation is bigger than the buybacks. Since newl

Am I underestimating the volume of gas, or the energy density?

Yes, but you can build tens of millions of resistance heaters much faster than tens of millions of heat pumps. They're also trivial to install. I was trying to propose something possible, not something ideal.

I don't think you need much new infra to switch to electrical resistance heating. Where to get this energy? Turn off bitcoin mining (200 TWh/year) and you probably get enough energy to replace the heat lost from stopping German im

"Mark as unread" just makes it look like an unread message. I want to read every message as it comes in, in case it's urgent. "Mark as unread" would either obscure new incoming messages from the same sender, or ca

Many sanctions so far are limiting Russia's ability to use money (in exchange for securities, other currencies, goods or services). I am only proposing that we proceed along the current path. As an example, denying them imports is redu

Isn't it far more important to ensure that they can't use dollars, than avoiding giving them more? They already have dollar reserves. If we can make dollars worthless for them, they will have given us the gas for free from their p
