Very interesting how your enlightening comments about dirty AI data centers are being downvoted. Pro-Musk, pro-AI bots and shills trying to keep the smoke screen going?

If you want to do some non-eugenics, fascist-free AI coding, try Zed with GitHub Copilot. I’ve been using it this week with better results than I ever had with Cursor. There’s even…

Protecting the panel from the freak large hail storm from inside the track also seems a lot harder than having it in a field with angle adjusting mounts/software.

Congrats, you have a moral compass and you sound raised by good parents. The other people in these threads bragging about burning tokens, not so much. I’ve sadly had the same thoug…

Not sure what “tells” you’re talking about. They have a “Made with Human Intelligence” badge at bottom of the post. Are you calling them liars? If so, what do you have to gain by t…

Some of the science spending was to help us prevent catastrophe and save our descendants. The GOP cut a measly $60 million per year for scientific monitoring instruments in the oce…

So Google AI will now be running partly on xAI data centers which run primarily on natural gas burned on site next to poor neighborhoods in Tennessee and Mississippi causing massiv…

There are solar panel manufacturers outside of China that have no dependence on Chinese inputs such as polysilicon, wafers, and ingots. Two that come to mind are First Solar (US) a…

Which missile intercept systems do you refer to? Surely not the Patriot which has proven to be most effective in Ukraine. Due to poor planning, it sounds like the Patriot stocks ha…

“If we lived in a world where dictators and their flying monkeys get regularly shot or droned to death, we wouldn't have dictators” While I agree with the sentiment, the groups who…

My theory is consistent repetition of messaging (Cialdini principles). The people aren’t stupid, they’ve been gradually brainwashed over years by propaganda like Fox News and “cons…

I’m an American. I saw it on 60 Minutes last night. Any reason why you prefer the strictly literal interpretation? The difference between a personal insult and a criticism of somet…

Trolls get traced and fined in Germany. It ought to be done everywhere. The 1st Amendment is taken too literally in the U.S.. Insults, abuse, and blatant lies have no place in publ…

"...in a Hail Mary attempt" I'm curious how often others have experienced this. There have been so many times on many different projects where I've struggled with something hard an…

EOS Energy (zinc-bromide grid-scale batteries), just christened their first automated manufacturing line and have entered mass production.

Amen. When I read the OP's post, I thought it could have been my manager. I am reserved, not outgoing, but I'm a team player. I prefer to take tasks, especially larger ones and bun…

Correct, I value doing the right thing over money. By transacting in something like that, even if for a moment, I would be accomplice to a major environmental destroyer.

If I won a contest and the prize was the choice between 100 BTC and 1 small vial of "Thieves" essential oil, I'd take the Thieves. Why? Because it has value (excellent in my homema…

I've had an electric lawn mower for about 10 years now and I can tell you that it has reduced my maintenance costs. For the ICE mower, I had to take it in every spring or every oth…

Mosquitos are part of the food chain and a LOT of animals (reptiles, birds, spiders, bats, etc) depend on them. Eradication is an extreme solution with extreme consequences.

I can vouch for deadlifts. Had wrist tendonitis flare-ups first at age 29 while doing lots of coding for a newly launched product. I'm 43 now and haven't had a flare-up in over 6 y…

Saw this in my local newspaper and the invention seems majorly disruptive, although I don't think these guys are getting much attention with a little local article written about th…

To fix points 1 & 2, they could overlay the label to the left and have the caret start to the right of the label, like in MailChimp's login page: https://login.mailchimp.com It wou…
