Seems like a way to put a lot of junk in space. If thats in earth orbit it will lead to a lot of junk falling from the sky in 10 years. If it all burns up that will be a lot of nasty shit in the atmosphere - millions of tons!

What about ice pressing down? The repeated glaciations might have pushed in area down and back up several times over 6 million years. Might have even caused that drip to break off.

Because people like me use quaternions but have never attained a full understanding like 3x3 rotation matricies. I will be reading the above link since its only 12 pages and someone indicated its an easier read.

The dollar is going down in value right now. Thats the plan. It makes foreign goods more expensive and exports more affordable to other countries. Meanwhile it should have less inflationary pressure on domestically produced stuff like housi

There is an obvious question I don't see anyone asking. Why do these data centers have to be built in every state? I guarantee it's not to run LLMs.

For the price of paying Apple, Patreon should be able to develop a web app instead. Why isn't this happening? Why an app when the web will do?

This was expected. The point was (allegedly) to encourage production in the US by making foreign goods more expensive. Its still a dumb idea since any following administration could reverse the policy, so why invest in local manufacturing?
