2% greenhouse gas emissions to feed 50% population is unsustainable? What?

What, again? Haber-Bosch process requires continuous power doesn't mean it's natural gas or coal. Where is nuclear? Is solar/wind disrupt that much that it can't compress/heat up some gas??
yEAH you write code easier, big MS and NVIDADDY get the trillion bag, everyone else pay 10x the price for RAM, GPU, soon to own nothing and pay subscriptions for everything lets fucking gooo
I get why Microsoflt loves AI so much - it basically devour and destroy open source software. Copyleft/copyright/any license is basically trash now. No one will ever want to open source their code ever again.
Yes, there is little to no major breakthroughs why keep posting them? Like wow this AI can run 5% better than the last one, jump from 68/100 score to 71/100 score because it uses 100% more GPU power, like, ok?
Maybe it's late but no, China's pop culture is not having a "moderate" success on neighboring countries because they tried and failed but because those neighbors actively resist it. They had culturally dominated over neighboring countries like Japan, Korea, Vietnam for hundred of years. See every Korean "historical" movies and you see Chinese culture everywhere. What you're seeing now is the active effort of those countries to stay as far far away from Chinese culture as possible. Imagine you successfully invade China and getting assimilated as the result. That's the Mongols. Thanks to Persia or whatever middle country between China and Europe, Europe did not get infected by Chinese culture. Now ironically thanks to Trump the west is resisting China's dominance before getting infected like Pokemon or KPOP or K-drama.
Can they tax DeepSeek just like they taxed BYD cars? Smh Chinese ruin US industry again and again and again. Where's Trump at?? Why don't he taxed 1000000% of the free $0 DeepSeek AI??
What do you mean by "global" pop culture? Maybe you mean "the west"/European/American pop culture. Being Vietnamese, I and my friends grew up with Journey to the West which at the time was bigger than Star Wars, Three kingdoms which is a lot lot bigger than Game of Thrones, and a lot of Jin Yong's movie adaptations. Star Wars the force is like normal thing in Jin Yong's novels. It's not a "complete" lack of. Sure you have heard of Monkey King, Lu Bu or Guan Yu, Cao Cao? They also won an Oscar long before Korean did. Sure they lose to Japanese's Pokemon but everyone lose to Pokemon really not just China.
RAND_MAX is only guaranteed to be at least 32767. So if you use `rand() % 10000` you'll have real biased towards 0-2767, even `rand() % 1000` is already not uniform (biased towards 0-767). And that assumes rand() is good uniform from 0-RAND_MAX in the first place.
Irrigation pipes have tiny holes which can be blocked by calcium deposit in hard water. You'll need filters, a lot of filters in order to operate them, and the filters needd to change for like every year or so, so it's not a one-time investment.
> Urbani realized that Chen's ailment was probably a new and highly contagious disease. He immediately notified the WHO, triggering a response to the epidemic (principally isolation and quarantine measures) that would end it within five months. He also persuaded the Vietnamese Health Ministry to begin isolating patients and screening travelers, thus slowing the early pace of the epidemic.
> But by the end of the two-hour meeting, the vice minister of health, Nguyen Van Thuong, had agreed to allow WHO to summon an international team of experts. He also promised to organize a task force at the ministry that would review the situation daily.
> It was, Brudon said, a "turning point."
> Vietnam's response contrasted with that of China, which for weeks tried to conceal the extent of its outbreak. But a health official in Vietnam, Le Thi Thu Ha, said her country made a simple calculation: "We needed that technical assistance," she said.
> ...
> That week, the Health Ministry set up a task force. Days later, a dozen epidemiologists and pathologists had arrived from Britain, the United States, Sweden, Germany, France and Australia.
They asked for help when they needed help, not saving face like China's handling of COVID in 2019.
If everyone can verify their votes, then they can sell their votes. E.g. A knows A's hash, and A can show X that A's hash voted for X, so that X will give A $20.
