And that's why performance tracking is prohibited in countries where unions still have a bit of power.

You are right and I don't think incentives exist to solve the issues you describe, because currently many of the building blocks people are building are aligned to erase subtleaccent differences: the neural codecs, transcription syste

Let me understand the AI argument you are making: Are you saying that if AI is valuable (which is likely) then not having cheap electricity is going to be downside? I would have two objections: - Data center operation and construction is on

If you visit the German study cited you will see that only a third of those transition costs are for electricity generation and transmission networks. The remainder is spent on climate change adaptations of housing, transport and industry.

Currently running some finetuning experiments on non-verbal sounds to teach TTS how to laugh. I have had some success to add the necessary tags and tokens to multiple systems, but assembling the necessary dataset with sufficient quality is

Well, it turned out that the micro inverter in question did not contain the necessary physical relay to show conformity with the claimed norms on electric safety (related to disconnect from the grid in case of grid failure). They only had a

200-300 EUR without installation is the current best price in Europe + shipping: https://geizhals.de/?cat=bmsesbk&xf=1601_780.50*1200~1603_2&...

Well of course but the manufacturers of the micro inverters sure try to cheat: https://www.heise.de/news/RelayGate-Deye-Solar-Microinverter...

I share your take on the gas policy failure. It was hard to prevent because Russian gas was so cheap. How could the German government have forced companies to buy more expensive gas elsewhere?

900 wp systems cost around 300 EUR including inverter and fixation but excluding labor and produces 150-200 EUR in electricity savings. Installation is 2-4 hours when you do it yourself. My city Berlin is subsidizing 250 EUR of the purchase

Gemini 2.5 Pro is the most capable for my usecase in Pytorch as well. Large context and much better instruction following for code edits make a big difference.

Berlin lost over 1.5m inhabitants in the time since 1945 to its lowest point after reunification (due to being a divided city without much industrial jobs). At it height 1 in 5 apartments were empty in Berlin which pushed rents down below 4

Really surprised that nobody in this thread mentions using Gemini 2.5 Pro. Its 1m context really shines for code review. GPT 5 has been disappointing with thinking and without.

Trump is just rambling. His 24 hours to end the war was an election slogan. Putin only understands the language of power. European countries don't want Ukraine to lose but can't commit themselves to the billions it would cost to w

I agree but I also would like to see yesterday's news. 12 articles is a little to few for me. I would like to come back every couple of days and review what happened.

> FT is not one single opinion This holds for most newspapers and makes that whole fake news argument so infuriating. As if journalists had even 15 minutes in a day to coordinate how to present an issue.

The key insight is that these models are becoming obsolete so fast that it doesn't make sense to not publish them. If others use your tech and stack and build on top or refine your ideas then you benefit greatly. Nobody is releasing th

I thought insidious means sinister/evil, but what you point out just shows that we as a society don't value news enough to pay for anything more than the 1-4 hours of time invested per news article.

As Germany and Japan can attest, export-led growth works great until it doesn't, because you are stuck to suppress wages across the economy to maintain your export edge. You need to also build the internal market and carefully manage t

I don't know why you think everything is so bleak. Yes, Europe is inter-connected to the world. We export a lot and we import a lot. Unemployment in Europe has been not been terrible for a long time. Of course there is room for improve

Gas and electricity prices are somewhat intertwined but not as much as you make it seem. Gas is primarily used in Germany for heating and Nuclear electricity doesn't help with this. Germany fully realizes that Gas is only an intermedia

Solar installations are already so cheap that they are cheaper than the fuel being burned in existing power plants. So it makes sense to have them replace this kind of fuel burning. They are still getting cheaper so there is no stopping sol

The calculator makes it very clear that adding more batteries becomes more and more inefficient. Being 100% independent is just completely unnecessary.
