They say supercomputer, but do they count Google/Amazon datacenters or just “named” supercomputers like the DoE’s scientific clusters?

AWS surely has more total compute capacity across its many datacenters

Water is another issue for xAI. Data centers use massive amounts of water to cool their servers; xAI says it will need 1 million gallons of water a day

“It would put stress on the wellfield,” says Scott Schoefernacker, science director for Protect Our Aquifer. He adds that “a lot of the water is just being used as cooling and it evaporates.”

Presumably it’s for evaporative cooling towers? I can’t imagine they’re heating it up from ambient and dumping it down the drain.

They actually never talk about Palestine, or even Israel. Only American politicians and parties.

You might get invited to the party if you didn’t hiss “you’re committing genocide” at ‘chad’ and ‘stacy’ every time you passed them.

Implicit in “profit so much that money becomes trivial” is that they think this tax rate should apply to very high profit businesses/individuals.

In fact the US’ top tax rate was 90% for almost a decade and over 70% for 40 years - during a time many would consider “golden years”.

They could have worded their statement better though.

That’s an interesting possibility - is there any data to support it?

Here in Georgia the fight is in the center, for sure.

What’s good is that it might get them in office so they can continue making incremental progress.

I got a heat pump this year because of the $3000 tax credit they passed - no chance of more incentives like that under Trump.

You have to explicitly check if the return value is an error and propagate it. You write the same boilerplate if (err) return err over and over again, which just litters your code.

That’s only true in crappy languages that have no concept of async workflows, monads, effects systems, etc.

Sad to see that an intentionally weak/limited language like Go is now the counterargument for good modeling of errors.

And not one post about efforts to advance alternative voting systems.

Arent they the party that coalitions with independents like Bernie Sanders and Angus King?

Which ones have you tried, which ones did you stop using, and which ones are the best of the bunch?

I am using Memmy and it’s not quite there - difficult touch targets, poor infinite scroll implementation, and crashy search are the big issues.

EDIT: I installed Voyager, it’s working great! Thanks for the suggestions!
