The newer machines don’t step but scan.

First time I’ve seen a lithography machine referred to as “a printer”. Is that really what they call it in fabs?

Because resources are extracted for the profit of the colonizers and not the locals, who are being suppressed and purposefully supplanted. Seriously man, this is not really very co…

I (in good faith) don’t understand what you don’t understand. Western Sahara is basically a colony so if you’re opposed to colonialism it isn’t super weird to be opposed to making …

I’d be interested! My email is in my HN profile, let’s set something up! Like, worst case scenario we just start with the two of us.

Hey that’s not what “intelligence” means. What you’re arguing for is data-driven automation, taking the human out of the loop. You’re describing “computer says no” level border con…
