If there is any country that can safely build nuclear power plants, it is Switzerland.

I was robbed at a gas station in Jersey City and the police retrieved the airtagged backpack in 20 minutes. The police was fantastic.

I think it would be more effective if US establishes deterrence against punitive fines of its companies.

The are fining his company 213% of yearly Italian revenue. He is not the one escalating.

If Italians have no influence over AGCOM, then who does?

I don’t see what the benefit of most of that is, and why publication fees are a good way to pay for it. Take video recordings: why should we pay for them to develop a video hosting…

The peer review is all done by volunteers of conferences, not ACM.

That isn't the case. Conferences organize their own website to submit articles for review. Volunteers from the conference pre-filter submitted articles for spam, the rest is handle…

This is good, but they're now charging authors a publishing fee of over $1000 per article (and they say that that is the discounted price). It is unclear whether this is justified.…

What does this predict about LLMs ability to win gold at the International Mathematical Olympiad?

USB-c is absolutely not good enough. The connectors are often incompatible due to tiny manufacturing tolerances, cables from different manufacturers often fall out of the port afte…

There should be no need whatsoever to convince your competitors and/or bureaucrats that allowing your new connector to be produced is in their interest. Only one should be convince…

This visualization is wildly inaccurate. The supposed 1000 pixels are actually 100x100 pixels, which is 10,000 not 1000. Secondly, on many screens they are not actually pixels. For…

Look at Singapore to understand the benefits of attracting wealth.

Money is not "hidden" or "hoarded" in tax havens, nor does hoarding money affect the economy negatively. Taxation is necessary for infrastructure (though that is actually a small f…

How does it hurt investment? Those tiny nations are only helping eliminate an inefficient form of taxation. The main problem is that only multinationals can make use of it.

Yes and that is bad, because cartels are bad. Competition between political systems is good, for much the same reason that competition between companies is good.

How would the incentives of that work?
