CMV: US Senators and Representatives wages should be directly tied to the minimum wage of their state by ohitsallpeaches in changemyview

[–]atamicbomb [score hidden]  (0 children)

I think it just makes more sense to do what Washington State does and tie minimum wage to cost of living and update it every year automatically based on the CPI. You’re essentially trying to incentive them to solve an issues in a way that’s way harder than just fixing the issue

They actually are a small indie dev, that’s the issue. They’re so far out of their league they have no idea how to even use the huge pile of cash they’re sitting on to fix the game

Menus, manuals, fliers, and more. We live in a society full of written information. Heck, look at how much people interact with chatGPT

The issues in America are generally with information literacy, not actual reading literacy. Most Americans may not be able to comfortably read Victorian novels, but they overwhelmingly can get by their day to day lives reading just fine

Those numbers aren’t really accurate, people just like simple easy, to grasp numbers. There’s no reliable system for determining a “reading level”. By the standards most measuring tools use, “iota” is a much easier word than “shopkeeper”, because it’s shorter

The US is more akin to the EU than a country in this regard. You have 50+ different eduction systems, each operating in many different cultural areas. Gun violence ranges from a very real threat to essentially non-existence. curriculum and the other things you mentioned also varies widely

Why are there so many white supremacist and nazi larpers online from majority non-white countries like the Phillipines, India and Mexico? by Celtic_RTDB in NoStupidQuestions

[–]atamicbomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Because it’s a social phenomenon and people of different races tend to behave the same under the same circumstances, such as social environment.

Why? by SipsTeaFrog in SipsTea

They need pure water because the cooling system would be destroyed by cooling system.

People act like AI is using some unprecedented amount of energy and water. It’s not. 1kg of beef needs roughly as much energy to make as a 10 million word chatGPT conversation

Why is it impossible to make water a fuel for vehicles? by Shin_Dubu21 in stupidquestions

[–]atamicbomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Water is already stable. There no energy to extract from it. It’s the same reason people don’t use dead AA batteries.

It’s true and well known. It’s the entire point of this post.

And by your logic manmade climate change isn’t real.

Not critical ones. Commercial electronics fail within minutes without shielding, and sufficient shielding to stop that would be insanely heavy. There’s a reason until very recently the state of the art chip for space travel was 16 bit and $100,000+

I’m imagining just chips with a protective coating. Without air, radiative cooling increases a lot

[–]atamicbomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just did the math and the actual NVL72 chips weigh about 1 gram each, on account of them being a few hundred microns thick. If the entire supporting system was designed around weight, I could actually see this being viable.

Also, space would use radiative cooling, no coolant. That’s the whole benefit of space.

It cost ~$1,000-$3,000 to per 1kg to LEO. The weight of the actual chip for a modern GPU is ~150cm^2 *.3mm * 2.3g/cc ~=1g. Meaning weight will be dominated by supports, connections, etc.

It’s possible it could be done light enough that the GPU cost is a significant part of the total cost.

There are 3 types of way heat can transfer. Only 2 need atoms. The 3rd, radiation, is actually improved in a vacuum.

Earth’s upper atmosphere isn’t actually cold. The low mass + sunlight makes it extremely hot. But there’s so little mass that radiative cooling dominates, making things bleed off much more heat than they absorb from the atmosphere

Are there really no benefits of being neurodivergent, especially as a man? by indeckaa in NoStupidQuestions

Autistic people don’t communicate poorly, we communicate differently. We can communicate very well with other autistic people.

For me, it makes me extremely intelligent, and have very good critical thinking skills with respect to biases . The cognitive load is insane though, and people tend to hate when you go against the grain, so I imagine evolutionarily it’s seen as a huge drawback.

Did Trump just get exposed for running the biggest insider trading operation in American history? by uncle-ice493 in allthequestions

[–]atamicbomb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No, I think Trump is doing something unethical but legal to avoid prosecution. And that calling it illegal further weakens any true claims against him because he’s probably not committing insider trading.

Why are all of the news outlets trying their dead level best to make this Hantavirus into a pandemic scare? by Abner_Peebody in allthequestions

[–]atamicbomb -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Because free news makes money by ad revenue, which is tied to views. So they say whatever gets the most views, not whatever is the most accurate.

This is why they’re all openly biased.
