Yes. It ends up in the ocean. Where there is infinite water. Do you know why there are places with almost no water, even though there is an “infinite” water source on earth? It’s not because they live far from the ocean. It is because ocean water is salty. Salty water is not apt for human consumption.
When you throw fresh water in the ocean, you are essentially destroying that water. Even if the H2O molecules are still there.
The problem is not what policies I support.
The problem is aunt Ben that lives in the middle of nowhere. Who hates the gays and communists. But lives paycheck to paycheck.
The social left/social right split is about 50%. Some places higher, some lower. But there is a LOT of working people. And most of those will not vote against their own interests. It’s only when they have to choose between “not my best interest, but at least there won’t be drag queens in my son’s school” and “probably my best interest, but they also want to put drag queens in my son’s school. So they’re probably lying about the good things, politicians always lie”. They’ll choose the latter.
It doesn’t matter that there is no political party that wants to put drag queens in schools. It is only important that aunt Ben thinks that is true.
If you focus on the economy, and ignore the social left, will the left gain enough votes to have power.
Only when you have power you can slowly go for the social issues.
This is what the right has done in the US. They’ve been claiming they’ll bring the good economy, and just leave the social issues as they were before. Slowly the US economy has drifted rightwards. So much so that the only 2 parties are economic right. So now it is the time to turn the social right on. They went full fascism and are killing the minorities and whoever supports them in protest.
Just follow the same playbook. “We’re leaving the rules as they are, we won’t engage in discussions about culture wars”, “but we’re gonna tax the rich and give US citizens universal healthcare”. Once both parties are pro-universal healthcare, go for public transport, then anti-anti-union measures. And once the economy is leftwing enough, you can start with the culture wars.
I’m not talking about the US. My country has more than 1 leftist party. But they focus on the social-left side and forget about the economic-left one.
You either make driving fast less safe, or you put a speed camera on every corner with the appropriate punishment. Cameras are expensive, and drivers will complain about them. If you make driving fast less safe, only the ones that remember how the road was before can complain about it.
Finally someone in the left that gets it.
I don’t want to vote left because of progressivism. I want to vote left because boss earns a dollar while I earn a dime.
For a long time I’ve been saying, leftist parties would have way more success if they focused on helping 90% of the population (the working class) instead of the minority 1%. They will help minorities the most by helping the working class anyway. They can’t help the minorities if they don’t get the majority’s vote.
Your comment does nothing more than reinforce my claim.
Paying attention in class is actually hard work. Some people cannot do it even if their life depends on it.
Paying attention in class is just the biggest indicator (IMO), but it is still just an indicator. Of course other aspects have an impact too. Having the time, space, and resources to actually be able to do homework at home is huge too. But homework is still at most 2 hours per day (on a particularly homework-heavy day). Kids spend ~8 hours at school.
That’s why I believe that what you do in school has the most impact on your school performance. At the end of the day, the place where kids spend most of their time is at school. If they make the most of that time, they will most probably at least pass the class.
The thing is not who does it. The thing is who complains about it.
I used to believe this is true. That is because I used to get very good grades without barely trying.
However, it was later in life that I learned I was trying very hard in comparison to other students.
Other students studied for at least 1 week before the exam, a couple hours per day. Or so they said (I also realized later most were probably not being honest). Meanwhile I just quickly checked the textbook the day before.
However. What happened in class? I was paying 90+% attention to the teacher. Engaging in class and answering the teacher’s questions when he asked them. Meanwhile, the ones that claimed to study so hard would be doodling, or looking at the clock, or talking to whoever was closer to them. Only paying some attention when someone asked “is this going into the exam?” And the teacher answered “yes”.
Of course, there may be people that even paying full attention in class, and doing all the homework, and studying many days in advance would perform poorly. But in my experience, the best indicator for success is attention paid in class, which is NOT low effort. You have to try very hard to not be distracted by classmates who are probably having more fun than you.
Completely disagree. Wine grapes are good too. In small quantities though, eat too many of them and there’s a flavour that starts accumulating, which turns you off from eating too many.
Can’t you just reserve X bits of the primary key to store a shard ID?

About a century ago was WWI. Idk about that.
I don’t think the multibillion price tag is about the physical battery itself.
It’s probably the cost of the entire project. Which includes:
The list goes on. Notice how I didn’t even mention the battery itself.
Most issues are a maintainers issue. Rarely is the issue in Linux itself. Most of the issues are in userland.
Yes. All OS have bugs, and yes, we are used to doing workarounds for windows too. But most of the time, that workaround is fishing for a setting in an obscure menu with a Windows7 UI. But it is still a GUI. If you read the labels of the buttons you can navigate the menus to reach the button you want to press.
I have never ever had to edit the registry to fix an issue. I have maybe edited the registry 10 times in my whole life, most of the time it was to customize beyond what the GUI offers, not to fix a bug. That’s on my PC, I don’t work in IT for a company. Maybe company management requires more extensive use of the registry.
The whole point of my comment is not that Linux breaks constantly while windows doesn’t. Of course it’s going to break more often, since there is an uncountable different Linux configurations, it’s incredibly more complex than having 2-3 versions of windows to maintain.
The point is that you can fix most issues on windows with the GUI, while on Linux you have to use the terminal most of the times.
We also know those windows workarounds because GUIs are way more discoverable than terminal commands.
GUIs act like trees. If you don’t care about the “personalization” branch of the menus, you just don’t click on it.
Terminals act like lists. You do ls /usr/bin you’ll just get shown hundreds of binaries. Which are not categorized in any way. Only when you know which binary solves your issue you can read the man and get something that hopefully resembles a tree, with headings of different levels.
If there were no billionaires, a corrupt person could still have power inside a government. Making it a corrupt government.
Then he could benefit from that corruption and become a billionaire.
It’s not a one way relationship.
Corrupt entities make powerful people. And powerful people (sometimes) do make the entities corrupt.
And this is an issue for all political systems.
It’s not a “get rid of billionaires and the issue is fixed”. We must both redistribute power so it is at more reasonable levels. And clean the entities.
And once the power imbalance is smaller and the entities are clean, it is a constant maintenance fight to keep those entities clean and the power balanced.
A single democratic election can give a lot of power to a person that previously had none. Power is always flowing.
Calculating the AR locally doesn’t mean that you won’t be sending the recording to Facebook.
They don’t collect data because it is necessary for the technology they use. They collect data because they sell it.
He literally paid people to vote for trump. In the open.
Nobody needs to be convinced of that. That is a fact. What you need to do is convince the people in power that that should be a punishable offense. But he put the people on power on power, so why would they punish him.
For AR you need to be recording. If you are recording, it is being sent to Facebook servers. You accepted Facebook’s terms and conditions, not me.
If you don’t want to be punched, you should advocate for laws that make the glasshole glasses ugly through non-avoidable methods of detecting if the glasses are recording.
For example by requiring every glass hole glass to have a physical cover that physically covers the view of the camera, and it should be a bright color to easily see if it is covering the camera or not. The contour of the camera should be painted with an equally bright color, contrasting highly with the cover. So you can easily see if the cover is covering it completely.
A led that turns on when recording is not enough, it’s very easy to remove a led from a device.
If you want to not use glass hole glasses for evil, you should want it to be mandatory for other people to see if you’re using it for evil or not.
You can’t pirate ram though
Because those services are actually useful. LLMs are just plagiarism machines. The only way they are remotely useful is because they “saved” a lot of money by stealing all the data on the internet. And even then, they have to operate at a huge loss. They’re also stealing from everyone by getting government subsidies and by ignoring environmental laws.
Remember, just because data is on the internet, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t have an owner.
If billionaires played by everyone’s rules and had to operate with profit, LLMs would be so incredibly expensive that no one would use them. They only seem remotely useful because basically all of society is footing part of the bill.
For the other services provided for data centers, whoever uses them does pay them, and it’s not expensive. You don’t need 5GW to serve a 30 minute video.
