Slop > We find that nearly half of the our bench- marks exhibit saturation

solar is an inverter power source electricity from a DC to AC inverter instead of a direct an generator powered by steam yeah a grid that was more than 30% inverter sources (which …

The energy mix of the physical grid (the western interconnect in this case) is what matters for stability. (in places with limited transmission this is more complicated but at a st…

Cool, that's still not a grid for stability purposes.

Utah isn't a power grid. They're on the western interconnect. Combined solar and wind are about 25-30% of production there. These articles about individual states are trash.

They over purchased hardware. This is very likely priced below recovering the cost of the hardware but still above operating expenses.

Canadian prosecutors tend to bring charges with no basis in law or reality fairly frequently. The conviction rate Canada wide is only like 50% because so many absurd cases are brou…

Fossil fuels remain more cost effective. The US isn't a centrally planned economy (sort of) so the more economical option wins.

There's no fingerprints in the passport. Edit apparently some but not all EU passports do, which is weird.

This has pretty obvious military applications in addition to the "solar all day" application.

It's slower than the 4:1 ratio would imply, but it does indeed work. Things get really slow if the model doesn't for in vram + ram and you have to go from disk to ram to vram.

The Chinese don't have access to new EUV machines. All of their fabrication ability is based on old processes.

Its west Texas, the natural gas is already nearby.

Have you seen the price of electricity? That's with only about 5% of cars being electric. We've consumed nearly all of the slack in transmission capacity. I'm expecting transmissio…

The classic PE strategy is to buy declining buy well known brands, borrow vast sums of money in the brands name, pay the PE firm huge consulting fees, and then bankrupt the acquire…

The false negative rate for HIV testing in newly infected people is actually pretty high, like 50% within the first few months high.

Not without filtering other things we need.

Blood is tested for disease, but the false negative rate for each test is its own risk. If you got blood from an addict living on the street engaging in prostitution and tested it,…

That might have been true at some point in the past and the judiciary might even feel that way still. However the practical penalty for filling absurd lawsuits is zero unless you d…

Says a coward posting anonymously online.

A whole new world of phishing.

Can't really compare a natural monopoly (water utility) that should be the government with something that isn't a natural monopoly (research).

Canada allowed millions of temporary foreign workers in. Unfortunately the border actually needs to be more sealed.

Bitcoin mining. (this is not a joke)
