According to SFMTA, there is no need for a site like Walz's.

So they are fine keeping it up right? Acting so fast to shut it down suggests there is in fact a need for it.

See Pygmalion.

People often say that parents are no longer the allies of the school when it comes to discipline or punishment or breaking the rules and that the parents always think their children are special or exempt from these things. I always think that might be a generalization but here is one data point anyway.

Yup!

One of the impacts of regulation is that it changes. Building a large plant takes years and while it is being built regulations change. While the plant is still being built, the plant has to make changes to align with the new regulations. There is a long post on Medium or Substack about this. The article tries to nail down why the US is one of the most expensive places to build nuclear power. Changing regulations is a major cause.

If one could bang out a dozen modular reactors in the time it takes to build a single large one, it is a huge win.

Are you saying that Germany can fix their problem by going with Telsa? Can they build enough Megapacks to take this issue on? How much would that cost?

Two words: phase stability

I read an article recently that Germany needed to keep one of their coal plants on for frequency and phase stability for the grid. The article pointed out the engineers have been worried about this issue for years, but it has yet grabbed the attention of politicians.

Atari already has 80% of the console market. This merger should not be allowed due to anti-trust laws.

Glad it's still 1982.

The only company that crippled Netflix was Cogent. I love Cogent (I've used their services), but they made a mistake taking on Netflix as a CDN client. Cogent prides itself on settlement free peering. Netflix pushed them beyond the settlement free contracts and they had no incentive to upgrade the peering links. That isn't the ISP's problem. The whole Netflix issue a few years back had nothing to do with net neutrality and everything to do with settlement free peering contracts.

Did you actually read about the components that comprise the RHEL AI system? It isn't just marketing. RHEL AI announcement is made up of:
* bootc -- bootable containers. A way to build ami, qcow2, vmdk, etc images in the same way one builds container images.
* Granite LLM -- Apache 2 licensed LLM.
* InstructLab -- tooling for using, managing, and training the LLM

Podman Desktop has a plugin called AI Lab that makes it easy for people to startup AI endpoints. In some ways it is similar to LM Studio, but container based.
Openshift AI is a system for Openshift (K8s) that supports building AI pipelines.

That's called peering and it is pretty important part of how the Internet works! Peering saves a company from using their more expensive transit links. The FCC should NOT mess with peering. It should in NO way be confusing with Net Neutrality.

For now, the answer is to spread the datacenters across the country. Which causes other issues. https://ancillary-proxy.atarimworker.io?url=https%3A%2F%2Ftwitter.com%2Fcorbtt%2Fstatus%2F1772392525174620355:

Some folks think that we know everything about the laws of physics, and what might exist out in the universe. This is an example of an extremely cool phenomenon that I don't think anyone would have expected, or really even dreamed of before we saw it ourselves. We don't know the smallest percentage about what is out there. We need to keep looking, seeking, exploring.

The whole thing about the early termination fee is because a contract is being broken. I know, contracts mean nothing these days because... who reads those things anyways? The company is giving a discount if ones agrees to stay with the company for a specified term. The company knows they have the customer for that period of time, so they cut a deal. One could opt into the month-to-month contract, but it costs more. All this rule will do is remove the discount for long-term commitments, which means we will all pay for the month-to-month pricing.

it's time to revisit the whole idea of 'intellectual property'. The US Constitution created copyright to 'promote the useful arts and sciences' but AI does not have a profit motivation for creation. This may be one of those 'resource abundance' situations that philosophers have discussed.
