That is nominal GDP based on a very weak currency.

In PPP terms, Iran's GDP is about $1.2T, about the same as that of Illinois or the Netherlands.

Then the future will belong to China.

Better start learning Mandarin.

Indeed. I pay $20 per month for Cursor, and it works great.

Why should I pay 15 times that much to be Elon's beta tester?

It is called Model Collapse, and avoiding it is a hot research topic.

If you punish companies for firing, you get less hiring.

Countries with inflexible labor markets tend to have higher unemployment.

Indeed. People participating in the arts tend to be higher-income, with healthier diets and better access to healthcare.

Also, the causation may go the other way. Healthier people are more likely to get out and go to museums or galleries.

That's what OpenCL is.

OpenCL

There's a small performance hit because OpenCL runs on any GPU, whereas CUDA is tuned only for Nvidia GPUs.

I'm not sure why this is modded Funny. It should be modded Insightful.

Modern AI is pretty good at rewriting CUDA as OpenCL.

It's not just one click (yet), but AI can do 90% of the work with some human guidance.

AI can also create a test suite to verify that the translation is correct.

Building generators does not require tax dollars.

Of course not. We buy electricity from the utilities. They don't pay us to take it.

That's actually a smart strategy.

But I wonder how many employees will quit in today's job market.

Are you saying that because the experiment from over 30 years ago looked at increases in CO2 of 167 ppm and 334 ppm over the then ambient level, the results will be inapplicable to the increase of 150 ppm that we have today over preindustrial levels, because that number is tiny?

You seem to think that the article is wrong, and that elevated CO2 reducing the nutritional value of food is unresearched.

It's not a recent finding:

The CO2 enrichment usually produced a decrease in nutrient concentrations, which was already detectable at the booting stage and was further enhanced until plant maturity. - A paper from over 30 years ago.

No mystery why Slashdot's active users are in the three figures.

If I operate a motorized vehicle on the street I need a license, insurance, registration and a street-legal vehicle. It's already against the law for an unlicensed little shit with no lights, safety equipment or common sense to suddenly dart out into traffic, swerve through screeching tires and near-misses and then do a wiseass pop back on to the sidewalk at 20-30 MPH. It's against the law to ride a motorized vehicle on the sidewalk too.

Oh, and shout out to the Mensa members who do the same thing wearing dark clothing at night at busy intersections. Every one of those goddamn bikes comes with lights installed. Except yours. Right bro?

Get a license and insurance or get the fuck off the road.

No. They did not.

The original geofence warrant identified 19 devices.

The police narrowed it down to nine that fit the movement pattern and requested more detailed information on those nine.

The police then requested the identifying information (actual names) of the three most suspicious individuals.

They did a background check and identified Mr. Chatrie as the most likely suspect based on his criminal record and other factors.

Only his home was searched. A few more might have been searched if nothing was found at his house.

The other people are likely not aware that their records were ever given to the police.
