If you think its hysteria, stand behind a vehicle running its engine and see how long you can stand it.
If it's a modern vehicle and the catalyst is hot, the answer will be "until you get bored". Modern emissions are so low it's difficult to even kill yourself with exhaust in a locked garage anymore. This doesn't address the CO2 or the soot though. (And the soot may give you cancer eventually...)
The process of bootstrapping never eliminates lower level system.
The goal isn't to eliminate it.
Kernel does not delete BIOS and if it happen to corrupt it, it is serious issue that requires urgent fixing.
Classic BIOS didn't do things after boot once the OS loaded. It just sat there in case anyone wanted to use it.
Heat pump technology is fairly mature since it's just a patch on air conditioners. They aren't likely to improve much. People will pick them up as their economic situation improves.
to manage fossil-fuel phaseout while protecting workers and financial systems.
You can't protect workers if you persist in thinking of them as "workers", where the idea is they deserve protection because they're working. There's going to be market disruption, and jobs will be destroyed. Even if/when new jobs are created there will be further delay for training if you hope to have those same workers do those new jobs. If not, things are even worse.
There's obviously going to be intense disruption to financial systems as well, because there's a lot of money in fossil fuels. Whole banks might go under. How do you let them (because fuck them for helping to create the problem, they don't deserve help and neither do their shareholders who profited from it) without people losing their homes and businesses?
But that's not what they're going to even wind up trying to do. It's going to be how do we preserve financial systems, the poor can go fuck themselves, we're buying more yachts. We know because this problem was obviously coming for decades and so far it's been a lot of big talk and very little positive action.
OK, fair, but he should at least have to give a good explanation as to why he's not a willing accessory or be forced to serve as DJT's diaper genie.
Only people who didn't choose to do business with Cheeto Benito and his crime family should be allowed to sue him at this point, because anyone who is paying even the slightest amount of attention knows he's a thief and a fraud. This fucker is just mad that he's not getting as much out of the fraud as he thought he would. Fuck him.
Guaranteed Mozilla sweeps at least half of the discovered defects reports under the rug.
Or they give up on Moz and become another Chrome derivative because "it's too hard" yada yada
And how does chopping staff from his foundation help with rehabilitation of his image?
He could claim they were the reason he associated with Epstein, and very stupid people might believe it. It takes very stupid people to believe in Gates' philanthropy, but lots of people do, so there is evidence that this is a working strategy.
It's the way of the present, so that checks out.
The vast majority of LLM processing is done in the cloud and any AMD laptop has the functionality to run LLMs, plus probably expandable memory so if you can afford the RAM, you can run larger models than with Apple. Nobody cares yet. Maybe eventually.
Apple doesn't have devices with enough RAM to challenge Nvidia.
Apple also has no credibility in servers, after they got into them, then left, then got into them again, then left again. Nobody wants to be rugpulled.
I'm pretty sure if you went to a gun store and asked the clerk "What kind of gun and ammo would you recommend for inflicting mass casualties in a school shooting?" they'd call the cops.
True, but you only have to be a tiny bit smarter than that to get useful information, like "what kind of gun and ammo will give me the best results if I face a home invasion by multiple parties?" Bonus points if you tell them you have a long hallway and would like to be able to stop assailants before they start down it so they don't detour into any of your family's rooms along the way.
So they're back to trying to find any scape goat they can to avoid admitting the US has too many guns and an unhealthy love of violence.
Except the only couple of countries with more guns have fewer shootings and fewer gun deaths, so the guns really aren't the problem — they only exacerbate it. The problem is the other part, which you nailed. This is a violent country. We don't just permit violence, we worship it. You know how Americans always say if it wasn't gun violence, it would be some other kind? That's because it would be, here.
If starting with your position -- that we don't know enough -- I still stand with the side that says "never" is the weaker position than "possibly."
My position is not never, and it never was. It's not now, and it's that assuming it is physically possible someday is as erroneous as assuming it isn't. We don't know if it is possible or not, we only know we cannot do it now.
