I don't really think you can trust everything they say to be a lie.

That's harsh. But the do need to remember what the term "bleeding edge" means.

Sorry, but you're wrong. LLMs are already quite useful in science and math...but not with the internet as a training basis. The LLMs that are useful in sciences need to be specialized for the particular science, and they need to be used as hypothesis generators rather than as answer givers. They can also be used to filter out noise (though in that case there's more need to beware of errors).

I'd call that an "if" rather than an entailed consequence. There are LOTS of ways to maintain a monopoly.

In 1960 "made in Japan" was an insult. In 1970 it was a compliment.

Countries have competed against each other since the earliest records.
If we're extremely fortunate, perhaps we can keep this competition on economic grounds.

If that's a nationwide average, then it's quite possible that large segments *do* have more electric power available than the median US user. China has lots of rural, partially modernized, population. And there may be more people in those segments than the population of the USl

Solar panels have that potential, but it requires proper use and planning to achieve it. Ditto for wind turbines. Once those get above a small fraction of the load you need load balancers. For this purpose most batteries are only short term, and you really need something that's good for weeks or months (preferably years). Pumping water uphill can work, if you've got the right situation and you plan for it. Other things can do the same job. Storage always comes with additional costs, if only in efficiency.

Simple answers here are so bad they're wrong. You need a good plan that you follow and do the necessary maintenance on.

But, yes, solar cells are a great component of such a larger plan. And we've been botching it.

To quote myself from another comment above: I'm not a fan of Darth Cheeto, but it's a stupid take to blame him for something that is the result of 50 years of bipartisan policies. IF I was putting the headline "China has overtaken America" at the feet of any specific individual, it would be a toss up between Richard Nixon and Bill Clinton. The "so much winning" in that context was the idea that we would convert the Chinese into western style democracy by growing their economy.

The coin should show his Mercedes in a handicapped spot.

Obligatory XKCD.

The computing interfaces on Star Trek were designed to work well for the audience watching them, which meant they had to make clear the information they needed to know (which wasn't necessary the information the putative users needed to know) and "usability" was a nonfactor. They worked well for that, but trying to use them as an actual user interface is indeed a bad idea.

ODF is widely deployed but doesn't meet the "lowest common denominator" bit I mentioned. Try opening an ODF file in Safari on an IOS device or Chrome on Android. ODF files are also file creation formats and not distribution formats.

The amyloid hypothesis is not based on fraudulent foundations, but they are pretty weak. Additionally, from what I've heard the mouse model of Alzheimer's disease is a pretty bad model.

This is worth following up on, but not on getting too excited about.
