Unless the German government is subsidizing or fixing the cost, that is not possible. Infrastructure requires new capacity to be build, which requires capacity payments.

The effects of Russian War had normalized by 2024. Or the paper would have shown an increase in Electricity tariffs. And the effects of Iran War are not apparent. I would recommend reading the actual paper where it acknowledges that it does

Well I don't have the data in front of me, but building power capacity leads to higher capacity payments, which are passed to all consumers. This has been an global industry standard for decades at far as I know. The study's autho

I think people disregard how economically massive the US is. China will have to grow it's overall GDP 3 times to get on the same level as US GDP per capita. US is the world's consumer. If you make something anywhere in the world,

The wild west era of the internet was an anomaly and we were naive to ever believe it will go on forever. State actors and Big Businesses have mostly put the genie back in the bottle.

A lot of datacenter are operating their own Natural gas based power generation. Which in itself is a different dynamic than buying electricity. I have operated such a setup, at a much lower industrial manufacturing scale. The tradeoffs are

I bought a base iPad 2 qeeks ago. At least with the cheaper models, you get deals at Best Buy and Amazon. I wonder whether this will also inflate the used market. I could have gotten more for my trade-in.

The 300 Billion pay out is huge. For context, Israel gets 38 Billion over 10 years to buy US Arms. And Iran's GDP is 475.2 billion as of 2024.

We have to remember that for the vast majority of human history, keeping people alive and healthy was not a concern. Most medical interventions discovered during post-Industrial Revolutions did not require special technology. It is only whe

Well because you are not paying for ads. You are paying rent. Alphabet and Meta own all the real estate of the web, and you have to pay them rent to survive.

The Capex and Opex requirements to do anything in the US are THE barriers to entry. Nobody has that kinda cash lying around, banks can't justify such high liabilities, and VCs are not interested in "stable", businesses.

The pre 1980s standards were ridiculous though. However, even if the US moves to some 3 quarters of the way towards now would be a huge improvement. The "consumer harm" standard is idiotic.

I find the discussion around tariffs in the US pretty weird. The people making the case for them right now sound like complete idiots at points and downright dishonest at other points, and the people making the case against them sound weird

This is funny because it is an unfounded claim replying to the request for proof. I can show you my git tree where GLM4.5 deleted my whole test suite and my session docs where it invented new github cli commands. Are you willing to show us

I don't know why this was downvoted. It is a genuine counterargument, even if it misses some of the context. The problem isn't that there are alternatives. The problem is that this sort of vapid human zoo has flourished and spread

IIRC, it was $2B annualized. Which means nothing. Also, their expenses will be way north of that.
