> does it make sense to commit to fossil fuel for another 50-70 years again?

I now see that you have been arguing in bad faith since the beginning and should not have wasted time, down to repeating exact arguments from the greens that have, so far, proved to be wronged and dragged Germany into one of the worst emitters of Europe.

Good luck with your dreams, knowing you're dragging all of us down with you.

>yet you single out Greens as the primary culprits. Why? Did they sign Nord Stream agreements?

You're incredibly defensive when all I have done is point out that saying "the greens aren't responsible for it" is a blatant lie. Especially when your purposefully ignore the next sentence, which still puts the blame on Merkel & Friends for continuing to implement it, in their case because it was lucrative to sign agreements with Russia for gas.(Especially this sack of shit Gerhard Schröder.)

>How not starting any nuclear project now is relevant to the current situation?

Aside from the fact that they have been on the offensive not just in 2024, but for close to a decade now (the Fessenheim closure has been demanded since 2016, green taxonomy started in 2020), because of this:

https://app.electricitymaps.com/zone/DE/24h

There has not been a _single_ day, a single month, a single year where the german electricity production has been under 200g eqCO2/kWh. Not a single one. The entire project has been slowly killing the planet, one day at a time, because technically illiterate and incompetent people have been leading your country.

>It’s a strange claim given the time and costs needed to build a single nuclear power plant.

While recent developments in Europe have been funny, to say the least (lol Flamanville/Hinkley Point C/Okilouto), half of these costs are caused by incredibly tight regulations, and another huge part has been caused by a gigantic loss of talent, which tends to happen when you demonize an entire industry for 30 years. There's also the fact that most of the recent constructions are new designs, which, yeah, require discovering flaws, unfortunately. China has 5-year construction speeds for nuclear plants using proven designs.

> It’s would not solve anything in the next 10 years at least

Considering renewables have not been solving anything in the past ten years alone, and will not solve anything in the net 10 years either, how about we start looking a little bit further than our noses and build _both_ ?

>will be the most expensive energy on the market

1/ lol lies 2/ lol renewables literally not working for a whole week in germany last week 3/ lol germany pushing for a common energy market where the price of the energy is based on the most expensive energy source available. Nuclear will never be the most expensive as long as we have gas burners for 400€/kWh.

>and add a dependency on a external supplier outside of EU (you cannot seriously suggest that we should get our uranium from Africa or Kazakhstan, so it‘s going to be an American one, same terms as LNG?)

Aside from the fact that I can _absolutely seriously suggest that_ and that I wouldn't take geopolitics lessons from Germany, thank you, we can also discover new sources of raw uranium (hell, even France is full of it, it's just cheaper to get it from Niger despite the instabilities), we can work forward on reusing and making nuclear "waste" useful (Breeder reactors have been an option, killing Superphénix was a mistake (but also the right choice from a financial perspective), keep it as a research reactor).

Germany has had an absolutely blind and ignorant world view of energy production, making it an absolute catastrophe of an energy market that gets covered by other european countries. It's not renewables OR nuclear. It's never been, and that a dichotomy that's been pushed forwards by morons. It's both. I'll be perfectly happy to turn off every single nuclear reactor in the world the day we guarantee all of our needs are fully covered by renewables ,which is going to require a _lot_ of overcapacity, or a globalized electricity grid (I thought depending on Africa and Russia was a bad idea?).

Renewables aren't the solution. They're part of it, and as it stands, aren't enough. Turn off your fucking coal burners and build nuclear, now.

This type of "hurr more money good" thinking is exactly the reason why there's a massive energy crisis across Europe, where individuals and enterprises end up paying gigantic electricity bills. People are _dying_ from this situation. Energy is not a random market like any others where number goes up means everything is good. _Lives_ depend on it.

The Greens had partnered with the SPD from 1998 to 2005 (and then again recently since 2021 but that's no related to the subject). They directly contributed to creating the Energiewende program. Merkel & friends implemented it, but saying the greens just "indicated preference" is utter bullshit. It's also the greens today trying to exclude any nuclear project from benefiting from grants at the European level.

The Greens do not get to have their cake and eat it when they are, in fact, directly one of the sources of the current german problem. Those 232g CO2/kWH as I write (and over 700 last week) is exactly what they asked for when they pushed for a full renewable energy grid backed by hopes and dreams.

>why I do I continue to use CSS & HTML?

Because you don't know how to write GLSL/WGSL, that things like font rendering end up requiring you to learn at best texture atlases, at worst SDF font rendering, and because you're quadrupling the time it takes you to do _anything_ because you're pixel bashing.

Oh and it's not accessible, which means you're going to get clapped by any audit, which means you're already eliminated from most places. Shaders have their place, for interactive, high speed components that you _explicitly_ don't want to make accessible by default.

If you're going to do this be sure you swap between charging and discharging as often as possible, go as low as your timer will allow. 30 minutes charging, 30 minutes discharging should allow you to reach house fire in less than a month.

No, but then again you're not paying me $20 per month while I pretend I have absolute knowledge.

You can, however, get the same human experience by contracting a consulting company that will bill you $20 000 per month and lie to you about having absolute knowledge.

Unless you have full access to the entirety of their training data, you can try to convince all you want, but you're just grasping at straws.

LLMs are stochastic parrots incapable of thought or reasoning. Even their chains of thoughts are part of the training data.

>it doesn't lend itself to reuse, but I don't blame it either: it's not really meant to do that.

Only if you keep writing more logic into build.gradle.kts.

Writing custom Gradle plugins has been the standard and recommended way to configure your projects for years now. Aside from a few footguns (lol extensions not being resolved at configuration time and needing providers everywhere), it allows you to mostly skip configuration steps.

If NL laws are anywhere close to the rest of European countries: the bike is responsible. The pedestrian is never responsible, unless they do something absurd like jumping in front of the bike without leaving any way to react to the bike.

>If the pedestrian gets a broken arm who pays for medical services?

The... Insurance of whoever is responsible? I know this concept is weird to the US, but personal insurances in Europe are about covering the damage you inflict on others first, then eventually you. They're also mandatory. In addition, well, a broken arm is not a financial catastrophe in Europe. Should it prevent you from doing your job, the insurance also covers that.

>Bikes hitting pedestrians (ex: children wandering out on to the bikelane) is a much larger safety concern than bikes being hit by cars.

Source ? Here's mine: https://www.cbs.nl/en-gb/news/2024/15/684-road-traffic-death...

1199 cyclists killed in 4 years, 658 of these being from collisions with various motor vehicles. 262 pedestrians killed in 4 years, 11 of these being from collisions with bicycles. Before any "oh but there's few deaths but more accidents it's still unsafe": no, it is not.

YC doesn't care whether it "makes sense" to use an LLM to design chips. They're as technically incompetent as any other VC, and their only interest is to pump out dogshit startups in the hopes it gets acquired. Gary Tan doesn't care about "making better chips": he cares about finding a sucker to buy out a shitty, hype-based company for a few billion. An old school investment bank would be perfect.

YC is technically incompetent and isn't about making the world better. Every single one of their words is a lie and hides the real intent: make money.
