Did jews do terrorist strikes on German population during and before WW2? Genuine question: it wasn’t easy finding data on this.

9 days after writing a completely one-sided article about a complicated, almost century long war, declaring his own weakening mental state a person is deemed no longer fit to be called “director”. Seems fine to me. I got a similar reaction to when Russia attacked Ukraine, and I wouldn’t have been fit to lead anyone during that few first months either. I barely got even the simplest things done.

I’m sure there’s plenty of things for him to do in this world below that position, and perhaps he can try a high position again later.

It should be noted that Russia’s aggression against Ukraine is still going on, and is in a huge risk of ending badly, and the Gaza crisis is diverting attention from that much larger conflict. It’s not unreasonable to say that the Gaza war is an offshoot of that war: Iran, Russia and Hamas saw an opportunity and took it and now this is happening.

Indeed, sir.

Ethereum transactions are claimed to use about 1-22 Wh per transaction. Not sure where the wide range comes from, but at least it’s quite a lot better then Bitcoin’s ~700-2000kWh per transaction. Ethereum is comparable to how much a credit card transaction is said to spend, although those figures only take into account power needed for their computer systems. Blockchain currencies replace a lot more infrastructure than just the computer systems, so I think it’s reasonable to say that Eth2 is more energy efficient than credit cards.

That’s not enough to make it a replacement for credit cards yet, but it’s a good lowest of the low barriers to be crossed to qualify as a replacement.

In a few years, we’ll probably be spending a huge amount of power for AI also, and there doesn’t seem to be any Proof-of-Stake -like technology to help with that. Good times.

Two thousand GPUs

Dump all your data in a data lake, throw a thousand GPUs in there too, and you’ll have your answer in 2 hours max.

That would certainly explain some things in the nodejs culture.

It’s not a surprise that his weird decisions and advertiser escapes has diminished the value. $19 billion is still quite a large company. As a practical example, the most expensive thing I own is almost a hundred thousand times cheaper.

Incidentally, Twitter stock price in March 2022, before Musk announced the acquisition, was about $32. So in a sense, it was worth $25 billion at that point.

There should be 5000 lines of code implementing fancy graphics transitions and also various beeps and boops. Writing those took 99% of our “hacker’s” time.

Also known as “my programming language doesn’t allow that therefore what you’re trying to do is a stupid idea”

(could just be a stupid idea too, though)

I remember a time when open-source software was developed without a pre-order business model.

"This new company will be led by Managing Director Moez Draief. Moez has spent over a decade working on the practical applications of cutting-edge AI as an academic at Imperial College and LSE, and as a chief scientist in industry. Harvard’s Karim Lakhani, Credo’s Navrina Singh and myself will serve as the initial Board of Mozilla.ai. "

This money will 90% go to paying the salary of these managers.

This will generate lots of fun moments when developers use Bun and the runtime environment is stuck at Node for some reason. For instance, because of AWS Lambda.
