For Oracle (another Stargate recipient) it was reversion to the mean. For Nvidia, it's a big loss - I imagine they might have predicated their revenue based on the continued need for compute - and now that's in question.

Amazing. My 2017 Ford Focus EV (a dreaded "compliance car") had literally zero problems other than replaceable items (wipers, 12v, tires, keyfob, etc). Plus since it was based on a high-volume platform, fixing it after a fender

It's way higher than that. 46k is about when the stopped being able to identify the bodies. Gaza Health Ministry was very conservative - they only claimed a death was caused by the occupation when the body could be identified. Estima

There is a theory that Deepseek gives based on it's distillation process that hints towards, that o1 is really a distillation of a bigger GPT (GPT5?). Some consider this to be spurious/conspiracy.

Doesn't Google Docs produce nice usable .docx output? I use it occasionally along with Word, and there doesn't seem to any compatibility issues.

You jest but Zionism and Nazism are two sides of the same coin. Netanhayu/Ben Gvir/Smotrich won't bat an eye at this. You can tell because the ADL basically shrugged it off.

Apparently ROW = America's colonies (in the eyes of Meta), so maybe kind of yeah.

I really hope the EU sees the writing on the wall. China is going to be really happy to pull them into their sphere of influence - and in about 5-10 years I think they'll be on par with or exceed ASML's EUV process.

It’s been known for quite a while that most life actually generated from the deep and then seated upwards. Photosynthesis came well after these creatures.

1) Cars are vastly more expensive and regulated. 2) Consequently the sales cycle is slower (usually people last at least 2-3 years for a lease). 3) EVs became politicized very quickly as they impacted politically active industries (oil).

Thoughts: 1) References to Java on device and "lack of OTA" and the importance of "iTunes" indicated the presenters had little understanding of the possibility of the App Store which was a seismic shift in the industry t

Even more extreme - keep in mind that everyone is a literal Ship of Theseus - we cycle all our atoms every 7-10 years.

Omnibar is unsurpassed in browser usability. Some of my work involves project names in an obscure part of the URL (everything else is the same base/parameters). FF handles this perfectly, no other browser I've tried comes close.

So what browser do you use that solves this properly and allows full adblocking?

As an owner of a used EV6, I can tell you this issue has caused some concern and I do think it's a real but rare issue. However, my calculation is this: It's a 1% impacted issue. Replacing with an AGM battery drastically reduces

I rented seven EVs this last summer (h/t Turo) and we ended up with a Kia EV6. Not a perfect car, but one my family loved more than the others. If we wanted something larger, the EV9 is also fantastic. I'd recommend trying ones

Plot twist: at some point in our lives we're all in the "randos" group. So these policies are default inhumane to some portion of the populace all the time.

Translation: our move to force everyone back to office didn't cause as much attrition as we'd have liked. We will need to turn the screws in a different way.

I disagree. Moderation is like culture. Twitter's moderation has gone to complete junk in the past couple of years. Bluesky and Mastodon don't have that problem (yet, or possibly ever). In your analogy - moderation is part of th

This will eventually shift. There is legitimately very little reason to use X unless you're a Musk-stan. Case in point: I started using twitter regularly during the CA fires & blackouts in 2017. I was amazed at how quickly I cou

The only problems I've ever had with glare are when I use my home laptop for FaceTime with family/friends. The lack of options from Apple may be a reaction to the market's general indifference.

I predict the same thing will eventually happen for cars, if the US continues to fail to compete with China. Eventually China (either directly or through some friendshore country) will have a local dealer network in the US and Chinese-desig

There is also the possibility that LLM models (which is what Apple Intelligence is leveraging mainly) are overblown and honestly a local minima for AI.

A meaningless BS choice no one would actively choose is not a real choice. If you happen to have a working spouse, you can choose between which work coverage makes most sense for your family.
