It finally happened? This deal has been in limbo literally since the end of the Cold War

China's been negotiating SCS claims with its neighbours. That's why, as of now, Taiwan's claims in the SCS are actually larger than China's claims (because of China's negotiations with Vietnam).

There's an interesting discussion here about how surplus energy shifts the economics of certain fields.

There recently was a paper discussing repurposing old computers and smartphones for use during periods of energy excess: while this compute might not be practical at average electricity rates, it might be worthwhile to have them available for use when electricity is cheap.

Why should we be subsidizing your garbage industry? Negotiate it yourself. Florida alone has half the population of the entirety of Canada.

Even if only Florida tried to negotiate, it would get similar prices to what Canada achieves.

Pathfinders conducted a survey from Sept. 5-12 of 1,200 Ukrainian families displaced by the war – about 3,600 people – that showed 90 per cent of them want to become permanent residents. Even if the war ended now, the survey found, 79 per cent would still prefer to stay in Canada.

You can have a good chip with a bad process and a bad chip with a good process. Nvidia Ampere used Samsung 8N to cut costs, but it still kicked the ass of the competition. Intel shipped hot garbage for years, but it wasn't because their 14nm process was bad (for a number of years, Intel 14nm was a very solid process.

It's been North American policy for years now that there's no chance of keeping temperature below 1.5C. We've ramped up natural gas production at a terrifying rate, knowing that it will be worse for the environment on a 20-year (and maybe even a 100-year) time scale because of fugitive emissions, but trusting that it will eventually equalize.

That policy is just plain fucked up because it takes the brunt of the environmental impact today and pushes the recovery to some unknown time far in the future, but that's the policy that we've taken. In fact, US energy production from fossil fuels has risen by 40% since it's plateau in the 1970s-2000s period. Fourty percent.

“We have tested them and we have a battery or two of them today,” Flynn said. “In 2024. We intend to deploy that system in your region [the Pacific]. I’m not going to say where and when. But I will just say that we will deploy them.”

Every day we inch closer and closer to war in the Pacific... Was war in Europe (Russia v. Ukraine and the US-led NATO) and war in the Middle East (Gaza v. Israel and the US) not enough?
