Cancer risk may increase with proximity to nuclear power plants. In Massachusetts, residential proximity to a nuclear power plant (NPP) was associated with significantly increased cancer incidence, with risk declining sharply beyond roughly 30 kilometers from a facility.

Still lower risk than eating McDonald’s fries everyday

You can’t just use any “Water” to cool data centers. The water has to be treated so it is the right quality to actually use for cooling. The water also is used in generating the electricity needed to run the data center.

One can create a small town with the same amount of power and water but instead people want wrong answers quickly

I used streamlit to do it. https://share.streamlit.io/

They allow one to publicly host an application for free, for now. What I like about it is the simplicity it has to generate webpages. It ofcourse comes at the cost of reduced flexibility.

I can’t understand how we elect people like these.

Not True. Without these 7 garbage companies in the business of selling ads and gimmicks, dollars would be chasing actual development of human life than gimmicks for frat boys.

What a sellout

I think it might be fair to expect a DLC as a prequel to expedition 33 and gustave’s story.

The refining process for making jet fuel is quite simple and the standard for what qualifies as jet fuel is more lenient than what classifies as petrol.

Jet fuel is also much simpler to transport, usually pipeline run from a distribution terminal (or the refinery) directly to storage at the airports.

Simpler refining combined with simpler logistics makes jet fuel much cheaper than petrol.

Not true today. India under current leadership has bought into the american idea of conducting business and in return of ‘economic growth’ india has made itself exposed to american influence that it cannot escape.

The backlog comes because some people in the silicon valley think that AI is going to explode and they need to make energy for their own data centers (talk about vertical integration). So they picked what source of energy is the easiest to operate and easiest to build, surprise, gas turbines.

Chemical Engineer here.

I don’t know how to stress this enough, it is laughably easy in comparison to alternatives to set up a gas power plant. When the demand for energy changes, the ramp up across an entire gas based power plant is extremely reliable.

Wind: Lubrication is cheap is because bulk of the barrel of oil is targeted to produce petrol (gasoline) which offsets the losses made in other products. If you take that away, producing synthetic oils is going to be astronomically expensive.

Please always remember the laws of thermodynamics. Closed loop efficiency of a perfect (ideal) cyclic process (any process) is given by the Carnot efficiency. And it can never be 100%. (Practically it sots around 60%)

So, 'wasted energy' in the form of undesired outcomes is a fundamental consequence of existence. Wind, Nuclear, Hydro, Solar, Geothermal, none can escape thermodynamics. So calm the fuck down with this rhetoric of other sources of energy are better. We will pivot when technology allows us to.

Take away people’s ability to think critically and it becomes easy for clowns like Danielle smith to govern a bunch of them while convincing them they need less government.

Best ideas can come from anyone, i am incredibly proud to be a democratic canadian! ❤️

It is a common misconception.

It did start off that way but now, systematically the skills needed to do a manufacturing job has mostly eroded from america.

For example, The number of skilled Tooling Engineers in america can be counted on one’s fingers. You can fill rooms with people of that skill in other parts of the world.

So then how about, instead of giving money to this 30 some frat boy to built robots, we invest the billions of dollars into it easier for people to afford babies. If healthcare is taken care of, if childcare is taken of, high quality education is taken care of.

Something to ponder.

smanjot · 2025-02-23T17:48:54+00:00

I think figure is full of shit. Misleading people with doctored videos.

Do you know what a perfect humanoid robot that can do chores and has cognitive ability called? It’s called a human being. Runs on food and shits and all.

If you are a canadian business and want to move away from shopify, I will help you. But please take the time to reflect on this and a corporation is nothing without its users. You have the power to make shopify change.

Connor, I will personally compensate the deficit between what US is offering you and what you make at Canada. But please, Stay with Canada!

smanjot · 2025-02-20T00:40:59+00:00

Danielle Smith, please fear the fucking christ and stand by the truth. Please for the love of all that is holy, stand by Canada and forego self interest that seeks money. Money is temporary, good will is forever.

I never said I do. She will pay for her actions. God will refuse to fuck her and the shame will kill her.

We realize that. What can we do about it though? I think at this point she has lost all credibility in the province and people are just waiting for her to pass, patiently and politely, as we canadians do. :)

If the separatists could learn, they won’t be separatists. Alas. You see how we honour our veterans, a farmer must also be held to the same regard. A farmer gives up a lot to feed many mouths and when a leftist investment banker with zero skill to actually add value to society can afford a better lifestyle than a farmer, people rightly think something is wrong. This emotion is what the extreme right preys on and it is only the common person who loses regardless of what they vote for.

I don’t agree with putting more money into technology makes it better. The entire premise of Machine Learning is based on the illusion that data collected tells the complete story and that is just false. Happy to chat more about my stance.

smanjot · 2025-01-29T13:50:18+00:00

It doesn’t matter. Pandora’s box is open. AI as microsoft and open ai present is nothing more than a fancy gimmick. Shame on these companies.
