I think Taiwan invasion by China will happen after foundries are built in the UI. My conspiracy theory is that there is some kind of "gentleman agreement" on this topic between the US and China. As soon as Taiwan is not needed any

I’d call it stupidity rather than masochism. It wasn’t that hard to see that energy needs were only going to increase rather than diminish. And not because of ai datacenters, but (to make a simple example) for example because of the already

I’m here ti add my own anecdotal two cents: 2024 has been a rough year. I didn’t begin any real recover until around march-may 2025… when i started going yo the gym and lifting weights. Yeah sure i’m doing therapy and all that jazz but the

I can't understand if their "intro to database systems" is an introductory (undergrad) level course or some advanced course (as in, introduction to database (internals)). Anyone willing to clarify this? I'm quite weak at
