Grady does not miss the point, but repeatedly says he does not understand the social part. This calls for someone else with better expertise to do that kind of analysis.

Well then redirect icy asteroid/comet and evaporate it to make longer lived gas ring around Earth. In either case, it's likely to have unforeseen effects on atmosphere and thus climate.

UK has similar share of renewables as California, yet no such regular blackouts. So now who is retconning what here :D

There were unofficial lists of content keys for child porn you could use to purge them from your local storage. That was the most you could do.

Since llama3, yes, quite satisfying.

There's no science in the original, regardless.

Note that quantized versions of llama3 70B can be ran on CPU on much cheaper server. I am personally using it via llama.cpp on bare metal 6-core Xeon CPU with 128G RAM for ~50 euro monthly.

Some electrolyte is certainly required for a supercapacitor. Hopefully battery research(solid electrolytes) carries over so that there will be no need for soaking concrete in corrosive solution.

Yes and they have steep discharge curve. Some youtubers subjected them to puncture tests too and they did not catch fire, that is looking good.

The subscription usually comes in a package and people hate to pay for something they disagree with, even if it's just one author of several, or the occassional mistake. Might not be the main reason, just that these unsatisfied users a

Claiming that concepts have some definite, if abstract, existence, is how not magical and flippant? They too are ambiguous, as is your example definition "the inner angles of triangle must sum to 180 degrees". It depends on euclid

Why cannot computer possess concepts or meaning? Because they can't possess consciousness? And why is that, what is consciousness? Because <<... boils down to some kind of magical thinking...>>

Getting the sad vibes of "philosophy dept. hopelessly trapped in bubble with microsoft and wolfram products, nevermind ever speaking to CS dept." The argument may be valid, but could have been lightyears advanced if author had any

Freenet solved most of that except slow access. And everyone hated it, supposedly because it's in Java. Now it's rebranded, flashy sites and whatnot, trying to do everything and noone knows anymore the exact use case.

I'd like to see some consideration of inflation. Maybe energy prices are expected to rise faster than inflation, that shortens the ROI time. Or maybe there's going to be so much renewables that electricity price regularly goes to

It does not directly change density of matter afaik, only exerts gravitational pull, same as Earth does, and that in turn influences the body. But unlike Earth's it rapidly changes in magnitude and direction.

Not even that, spark gaps and coherers :) And we can't really detect radio signatures yet, not farther than closest stars. Perhaps when we get solar gravitational lens telescopes.

It can move soft tissues relatively to the skull bone, resulting in changes of pressure detectable by eardrums.

Sure, everyone loves 1. to have stabilized supply and prices 2. be the first to ramp up the production of new tech and reap benefits of scale 3. to complain about taxes used as above :)

The article does not mention anything like that. And even in DCs, overoptimizing the memory pressures carries the risk of latency spikes or worse.

I have yet to see substantial swap usage outside of memory pressure scenario. Means the benefit is marginal. All processes seem to be reasonably optimized not to leave lots of not accessed memory around. Or they have sparse access pattern w

There are some rules against extreme profanity, death threats and bullying of minors anywhere. So true freedom of speech does not exist anyway.

Perhaps it's same as the Taleb's antifragility, but hard to say, the article avoids any deeper details.

Missed probably the biggest factor: Large battery was much more expensive than ICE drivetrain. This might ger the other way around in only few years.
