Have you looked at the financial reports of those companies recently? US is the largest revenue stream but nowhere dominant. USA is headed to have companies that used to serve 3-5 billion people markets to shrink to 0.35 billion market. US

This racketeering can serve as a model for tech independence across the globe. Everyone can force Meta/Google/twitter to sell their local businesses to local owners and the government get a payout. I can’t believe the US took this

There were rumors about OpenAI preparing for sign in with OpenAI to let users use their OpenAI allowances with apps, si this is basically it. The question is, how long before OpenAI bans this or makes it official.

IIRC the argument isn't that there's no enough money but that it shouldn't be done. American public happens to believe that the current system is better, that's why no one is rioting. They may riot if someone introduces

To add to that, I would also recommend Markus Reisner from Austrian Military Academy: https://youtu.be/L89HmVKewfg From time to time he does situation reviews and analysis on Ukraine in English and he doesn’t hold back.

Ukraine sunk half of the Russian Black sea fleet, the other half is hiding in safe ports and still get hit occasionally. Remember when there were talks about grain corridors? There are no more such talks because Ukraine actually managed to

US economy is robust, the problem is that people don’t have the same safety nets when out of work. No job means no healthcare or reduced coverage for many people for example, so it is a bigger deal to have unemployment. Which means a Finnis

Within the context provided…. You should consider reading the whole argument.

Irrelevant. The president holds all the cards, he is above the law and you are a supply chain risk if you ask anything else other than “how high” when you are told to jump. Laws or contracts are things in the past. The most a contract can d

Implementation details TBH. They want “their boys” to do as said. No respect to agreement or legality as we can see in other dealings. They hold all they cards.

Isn’t it actually quite fair that if you are not compliant with whatever the government wants you to do you will be supplying chain risk? For example from history we know that Schindler from Schindler's List was indeed a supply chain r

I don’t disagree, sure M1’s don’t grow somewhere and at some point will no longer exist as new but this is such a disappointing laptop. At least could have had a redeeming quality like being significantly lighter. It’s just worse in every a

Maybe but It has worse screen, worse battery and worse connectivity.

Smaller screen with less colors(sRGB instead of P3), shorter battery life(16 instead of 18), USB-3 and USB-2 Type-C ports instead of thunderbolt.

I'm not convinced at the insane price at all, you can buy an older model macbook Air and get the full experience at similar prices. Edit: TBH I'm disappointed, I was hoping for an ultra portable macbook that is less than a kg and

That's why decapitation attacks can be very efficient, as wars are actually just extra-election elite changes since regular people minding their own business don't actually intend to kill some other group of people even if they ar

That happened when Hamas attacked Israel and Israel started a full blown war in Gaza. The whole situation was very convenient for Russia, weapon deliveries were slashed to supply Israel.

So, what does that mean? Is Iran one of those regimes that fall when the leader is killed or is it one of those regimes that they just choose/install someone else and keep going? If it falls, will the democracy kick in or a civil war?

I don't disagree, my point is that machines won't change a thing about war just optimize it.

What do you think it will happen once the machines fight off? Do you think that the losing side will be like "oh no our machines lost, then better we give our things to the winning machines"? After your machines are destroyed you

I think this is probably going to be the mainstream. Once you are able to define what you need LLMs are able to produce it. If you are able to understand what is delivered, it ends up working as expected. I needed and embedded document base
