This has nothing to do with 5 year plans, but with having a functional and competent government enable to enact a coherent long term policy. In western countries every couple of years we elect a new clown show, which…
>Is it? Then why isn't it cheaper to produce and cheaper to own? Because batteries are very expensive. But they aren't particularly complex. This argument just does not make any sense at all. Of course simple components…
>We should embrace any way to get a clean running car on the road. No. We should embrace the technically most feasible, which opens up new technology to the most people. EVs are the clear winners. Every cent spent on…
When comparing EVs to hydrogen cars it is very obvious that one is the superior solution. An EV is a clear simplification of an ICE. Add a Battery and replace the mechanical complexity of a combustion engine with a…
I have an edition of the Nibelungenlied, which presents a modern German translation right next to a version of the original text. While the original is somewhat difficult to understand there is an amazing continuity…
Why is the government doing this, this seems like a ridiculous waste. Here in Germany private corporations provide APIs for this. Google maps straight up tells you the price at nearby stations. Maybe the UK government…
You are correct that implementations of numerical functions in hardware differ, but I do not think you correctly understand the implications of this. >And very rarely, this kind of thing might happen naturally. It is…
The hardware itself is utilized by many pieces of software on any Apple device. Face ID uses it, Siri uses it, the camera uses it, there are also other Apple on device LLM features, where you could easily test whether…
No it wasn't. A hardware defect so disastrous that it affects floating point computation on the neural engine, yet so minor that it does not affect any of the software on the device utilizing that hardware is…
I said that student activists struggled academically, your counter point was that at your school student activists made it into high political offices. What other interpretation of your words could there be except you…
Why do you think that it is a given that politicians perform better in school? Here in Germany many prominent politicians were academic failures or dropouts. We had student council elections, where the candidates were…
In my experience of University much of student activism was done by students who struggled the most academically and often made it part of their agenda to ease academic standards.
You are posting this on something which can only be described as "social media". There is enormous value in letting humans communicate freely through the internet and any harm which comes from the misuse needs to be…
>Autonomous cars, drones cheerfully obey prompt injection by road sign This is just a lie and has nothing to do with the research, which in a baffling decision does not appear to be linked in the article.…
For the reasons outlined in my post I believe that it is hard to show specific causal claims which relate overuse of mobile devices and especially social media to specific problems. Although I think for some specific…
This is of course a trend in many western countries. With some, like the UK and Australia, leading the way. At this point I do not think it is reasonable to deny the harm that certain modes of social interactions over…
People do not realize how dire the current economic situation is. Many of the large traditional businesses are on the verge of becoming unprofitable. The monumental task of ripping out the IT systems they have built up…
Many European companies are already struggling financially, especially the large traditional businesses which form the backbone of the European economy at large. Now you demand that these companies should rip out…
Expecting the crash of the most important economy in the world based on two graphs, where you do chart astrology, is such an insanely stupid argument it is hard to fathom. With all these charlatans predicting imminent…

This is just absolutely insane. Why are you publicly humiliating your most successful founders on the home page of your VC firm? "Here is an awful photo of our star founders. Look at how terribly they looked and what…
Germany is rapidly deindustrializing, caused partly by high energy prices. Whenever I see a headline like this, I only see that I will soon be out of a job, together with millions, and prosperity in Europe will come to…
To be honst I think state run lotteries are a pretty good idea, if they would replace other forms of gambling, which apparently is becoming less and less true, especially with the rise of the completely under regulated…
