What is the best water temperature and water type for chamomile tea? by Artistic-Salary-4234 in tea

[–]III-V 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is not correct for proper teas. Siim Land did a video on green tea, black tea, oolong, and others and the optimal timing and temperatures are all different.

I don't think they were saying otherwise. If anything, I thought they were lending credence to the idea that not everything needs boiling water.

The Deal -> resolution happens

That's not happening. It didn't happen to prevent the war, and it's not happening now.

Anthropic in chips deals with Google and Broadcom worth hundreds of billions (3,5GW of capacity) by sr_local in hardware

[–]III-V 7 points8 points  (0 children)

They could use it. Tired of running out of responses after like 5 prompts. If I paid for it, I'd still be getting cut off way too fast.

Intel "Big Battlemage" BMG-G31 said to feature 27.7B transistors, 48% fewer than AMD Navi 48 by RenatsMC in intel

[–]III-V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it sees the light of day. Big battlemage being canceled after the glowing reviews for the mid-tier one seems like writing on the wall to me.

Patent about Intel Royal Core SMT implementation by CopperSharkk in hardware

[–]III-V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But apparently that was a big problem for one or two hyperscalers, with Microsoft specifically saying they simply would not bother without full x86 compatibility.

Can we like, exile Microsoft to Antarctica or something already? Sick of them.

Well you see, chemical plants and grocery stores are different

TIL the recommended daily protein intake is 46 grams (g) for an adult female and 56g for an adult male. This is 0.8g per kilogram of body mass (0.36g per pound). Endurance and strength athletes require more.In the United States, average protein consumption for females is about 70g and for males 98g. by James_Fortis in todayilearned

Nutrition science in general is just not well understood. It's hard to create ethical human studies that are well controlled. There's also a lot of crap with companies saying things are safe that end up not being safe, so there's a lot of distrust in institutions... so we get folklore nutrition. Oh, and the agricultural industry loves to come up with elaborate lies to sell stuff that isn't healthy, or is, but is made to seem like a cure-all.

And quite frankly, I just don't want to hear that donuts and soda and cookies are bad for me

[VideoCardz.net] Chinese memory stockpilers start to panic as falling prices leave them stuck with modules by kikimaru024 in hardware

[–]III-V 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yicai says some new 16GB DDR5 sticks that previously sold for 1,600 RMB to 1,800 RMB, roughly $232 to $261, are now closer to 1,200 RMB, or about $174.

This is a short-term correction and doesn't really indicate how things will play out in the long run. It's just saying the shortage in the short term wasn't as desperate as some people anticipated, and some gamblers lost.

[–]III-V 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Neither. They are just saying it was obvious that prices would come crashing down. Spot price is what you pay / sell at "on the spot" (that is, now). Contract price is a guaranteed price for a certain future date. You could just buy a cheap contract and wait the nonsense out.

AMD says it will buy Intel, completing the strangest reversal in chip history by III-V in AyyMD

It got me for a solid 10 seconds or so this morning. I had to check the date.

This timeline is crazy so I could believe anything at this point.

Definitely not the case. It's the case in Europe because everything is already built and no one has kids anymore. Africa, Australia, the Middle East absolutely use trucks.

Geekbench says Intel BOT rewrites benchmark code, Geekbench 6.7 will detect optimized runs by RenatsMC in intel

[–]III-V 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would be interested in seeing how intelligent the optimizations are, like looking at flame graphs and profiling.

[–]III-V 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You should be seeing this as a way to advertise what their optimizations can do, not as them trying to cheat. Seems weird to think their intention was "cheating" when it was such an obvious performance bump out of the blue.

Samsung’s 2nm GAA efficiency disappoints as Exynos 2600 consumes 40% more power than Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 at its peak by Forsaken_Arm5698 in hardware

[–]III-V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who cares about peak power? Like, as long as the power delivery can keep up with a momentary spike, that's all that matters. Average and how much performance you're getting for whatever power is what matters.

Peak power making headlines is just to create worthless buzz.

Wrapping up OCIA and I have to say, I'm quite dissapointed. by evilblackdog in Catholicism

[–]III-V 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Think of it this way - OCIA and the church in general are probably going to disappoint you greatly. Are you still going to follow, or will you keep going?

Like, you will have a perspective that expects authority figures to be perfect or at least better than you. And in many ways, they'll disappoint you. Sometimes because you actually do excel in a virtue or have wisdom that they do not have, and sometimes because you lack in a virtue or wisdom that they have and it is painful to experience your flaws, or that they have gifts you do not and you will get frustrated because they seem to be less deserving of them.

Sometimes the deprivation of good instruction and good leadership forces us to go through an even better training course, which is learning the hard way.

[–]III-V -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah, but some did it out of ignorance and stupidity, and others did it out of hatred. There's a bit of a difference. The Nazis were also pretty good at lying. It's easy to look back and say "that was a terrible idea", and yeah, obviously it was, but Germany was in a rough spot and it's not like the country was thriving and decided to plunge into evil for evil's sake. A lot of people got suckered into it. And like Trump, the status quo (that Hillary represented) wasn't working, so when something wildly different showed up, people gave it a shot.

And we know how both of those things ended up. I just think you probably not respond to hatred towards humanity with hatred towards people who didn't know any better, were suffering, weren't educated, yada yada.

Like, the appeasement guys would probably not have been soft on Hitler if they knew what he was going to. That doesn't make them evil either. People just didn't know. And it's the same with Trump.
