OK, but Apple is still going to need high speed memory for all of their products after this too. They would still gain the benefits of additional vertical integration. They themselves represent sufficient demand to keep many facilities busy without any other customers, so it seems like there's no drawbacks here.

Because self-supposed leftists who are really just too lazy to vote stay home.

The basis of expectation of failure comes from experience that others have had with maintaining AI-generated code. Maybe you're right and the tech will progress, some new discovery even more profound than transformers will be found and you actually will be able to maintain that code. Good luck!

They build houses like that too in some countries. Everything fabricated in a factory, large parts taken to site and assembled. Not quite the whole house on the back of a truck, but similar benefits for quality and rapid on-site assembly.

It's great because you can customize the house extensively and the CNC machines make it for you, where as the way we build them in the UK by hand means that every change is expensive and often goes wrong anyway.

What do you think ad hominem means? It doesn't mean someone made you feel bad.

It's a bit more serious for Apple, because their RAM is tightly coupled with the CPU, on the same substrate. It has to have very specific parameters to operate at the high speeds they need to make their ARM CPU cores competitive, and for their GPUs to perform half decently with unified memory. They need a lot of bandwidth and their CPUs have massive caches, because the ARM ABI is just not very space efficient compared to x86 and CISC.

That means they are more limited in terms of being able to find alternative suppliers for the RAM they need, and they are going to have to pay top dollar to out-bid AI for it. Without the RAM, they can't even make the CPUs. They lack the flexibility of having a separate CPU/GPU and RAM, both are required to make an M series part.

I do wonder about the hardware RNG on the STM32. They say it passes various randomness tests, and I'm sure they are right, but those tests aren't the be-all and end-all. I'd want to mix it with other sources of entropy.

It's being promoted by the President of the United States and by Federal agencies. It's mainstream and something that lay people will be interacting with. You can justifiably call them blithering idiots for trusting anything POTUS says, but it's definitely relevant news.

Something like an MG S5, for example. CUV shape with plenty of space and a decent boot, 250 miles even in winter at motorway speeds, charges faster than your bladder discharges, autopilot and a nice interior, and while the list price is about 33k with tax, they are actually sold for about 23k with tax for the long range top spec model. That's GBP so convert to USD and it's about 30k, depending on the exchange rate today.

What are the odds a predictive market would be legalized in time to bet on those odds?

Corruption seeded long ago. From the (Congressional) Inside (Trader) Out..

Mel "McAfee" Brooks also got caught snorting pure bootleg air and flipping Mega Maids skirt up to reveal her backdoor with that whole suck2blow script.

Heard he's hoping a few less Assholes get hired for the sequel.

I can respect it too. To a point.

Nicholas (Cage) Coppola will go down as the Nickelback of actors. Both beloved and hated by those that recognize a catalog that somewhat feels forced by thy own eccentricities. He started as the punk dating a Valley Girl. Not so sure that will cement him as a National Treasure in Hollywood.

In the end game, giving Steven Segal a run for his career planning is the kind of thing that might earn you a golf clap at your retirement party.

Uh no.
The bridge was rolled the 500 meters to it's destination on 1044 wheels.
At the end hydraulic jacks were used to lift it the 6 meters (20 feet) to rest on the designated supports.
As such not unusual but here is was in a densely populated city and on roads that during the transport had to be reinforces with heavy steel plates to protect the underlying pipes and cables.

Because Tesla only makes a few models, and I think only the Y and 3 are available in China. With Chinese batteries, BTW.

Also because they are aspirational. A lot of Audis are crap, they charge a subscription for heated seats. Range Rovers are unreliable and uninsurable, but people think they compensate for their micro penis.

You are getting shafted by the lack of competition from Chinese manufactures. Here we can buy a brand new long range EV for around $30k before tax, and it's better than a Tesla.
