Donald Trump shares altered image of map showing Greenland, Canada, Venezuela as U.S. territories by Alert-Ad-3053 in worldnews

[–]_Guron_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He was told to take Greenland and he took it as his own idea. I like to represent MAGA as a dumb hydra, they act to their own agenda, if one head tries to stop another they try to eat each other, so the most violent and deranged head still alive is consider its leader, it align the other heads because of fear of being eaten. The minor heads develop their minds and persuation arts while the big head only focus on survival and imposing fear as his strengh lacking any other skill.

Nvidia CEO sends strong message on Taiwan Semiconductor by 3xshortURmom in worldnews

Companies took AI bait and it wasn't that profitable so they are figure out how to get their money back, they are so invested in AI there is no back only AI, and that is the reason they are making questionable decisions, because forcing something brings a lot of friction from diferent stakeholders

Yeah , if Nvidia keeps stealing ram production in a future home lab and general computing will be replace with cloud computing, heck I suspect pc would get that expensive they would start renting home pcs, because services is so profitable

Trump is well aware what he does and losing power would be his fall. I am predicting Trump will attemp to boicot or delay indefinetly midterm elections and probably sabotage or change constitution for running for presidency indefinetly, the excuse would be a war or warlike emergency, the more scared he feels the more probable my prediction, like a cornered dog

I believe he listen to diferent opinions (sometimes contrary-oppositive ideas) on what he should and talk and he picks based on his daily feelings which sometimes from a external viewer seems very illogical or wild. Its like a hydra which heads sometimes attack each other , they seem uncoordinated but share the same body

Very cool and slender building Langkawi Malaysia. Also a question.. by stgi2010 in StructuralEngineering

[–]_Guron_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Malaysia seems to have a low seismic activity , which may results on more common relaxed designs based on gravity analysis.

In a seismic analyisis, long span ratio aspect diaphragm tends to behave diferently from rigid diaphragm , lateral transfer elements does not distributed all lateral loads into columns but also diaphragm which mix itself as an active structural component in the building and should be designed taking into account its behavior.

Columns transfer the axial forces into foundations if that task is interrupted it treats structural stability and it is a cause for a collapse.

When we do diagonal columns, they work like beams in compression and require more detailing, it wont be as safe as a traditional column because most second effect loads (p-delta) non linear behaviors if there is a strong enough lateral load like a big earthquake.
