Huang's not an idiot, his security team would be handing out his money, because nVidia's money would be documented. Lord knows Huang can afford it.

But at least China has pledged to address the problem.

China pledges and promises all sorts of stuff....

They are basically one of the worlds greatest and most prolific liars too.....

Go over there and try to start a business (with them by force)....and see just how far promises made go for you.

The overwhelming majority of his nVidia shares are vested so it doesn't matter. This guy could acquire a $10,000-dollar-a-day cocaine and escort habit and he would still probably end his life richer than he is now.

Mail all the rotting meat to them.

Nah....just all the PORK, and associated liquids and blood.

And maybe air drop it rather than mail it....that'll get them where it hurts.

To me, that is basically an acoustic Stockholm syndrome. Motorcycles with their open engines are necessarily very loud to the rider. Like the hostages start to love their captor, motorcycle riders start to love the sound to cope with the fact that they can't flee it.

From that,I'm guessing you are not a biker.

And as the old saying goes..."..if I have to explain it to you....you wouldn't understand.."

That's now throwing shade at you, mind you.....it's just if you aren't of the biker mind, you likely won't "get it".

Ugh....I dread the day when all you can get is a silent electric motorcycle....

Half the fun of one is the sounds and smells and vibrations it gives you....a visceral experience.

Oh wait, second hand EV prices have gone Up as people try to avoid paying high petrol prices

Must be a EU thing.

In the US, the used EV prices are still tanking (no pun intended)....you drive an EV off the lot here in the US, you are pretty much guaranteed to be close to upside down in it immediately.

Then walk - When people being up "I can't charge, I live in an apartment" as some sort of reason to not make EV's, I have to chuckle. I don't have space to put in a Dump truck, that doesn't mean they shouldn't exist.

I know you jest....as that "walking" for most folks isnt' a viable option at all.

I think the main thing is....while there are significant number of folks that can NOT charge at home for various reasons, people should not be penalized for sticking with ICE vehicles which still server them quite well.

From a cost benefit analysis he has spent a tremendous amount of money to pick up a modest amount of plastic. And he hit every problem that actual experts predicted would happen.

"plastic going into the ocean (via interceptors)"

The funny thing is people told him that would be more effective because people had already deployed river interceptors and they were effective, and it took years before his techbro ego let him finally do it. At which point he claimed to have invented the technology which was a lie.

Not at all. In fact my wife is trans. And I do know a bit about the subject

And of course there are outliers. The question is what we (society) do with that. They used to be marginalized, then we went completely the other way. In particular, not only trying to convince kids that they might be one of those outliers, but offer them gender affirming care (or whatever we're supposed to call it these days), with far-reaching lifelong consequences. In the past, the incidence of regret after the surgery used to be incredibly low (around 0.1%), but it is already climbing (3-5% now). A German study showed that of people aged 5-12 and diagnosed with "gender identity disorder" (their term), more than half no longer carried that diagnosis after 5 years. Yet some people are so stuck in their ideology that they refuse to understand that the diagnosis in kids is highly unreliable, and continue to push them towards treatment. And yes, even "just" hormone treatment at a young age has serious consequences, regardless of whether the person transitions later in life or not.

That's the ideological "nonsense" I was referring to.

Really? The gender fluidity nonsense. CRT and Intersectionalism. Or half of the field of Sociology and most of its departments that have devolved into an echo chamber devoid of scientific fact, imposing groupthink instead and ousting those who do not toe the line. The nutty left is just as nuts as the nutty right. But culturally they are a hell of a lot more influential, billionaire propaganda notwithstanding. The best trick that the radical left has pulled is somehow convincing the intelligentsia that their brand of insanity was in fact truthful, mainstream rather than radical, and the only decent opinion to hold.

"Two states were promised a new government holiday to celebrate Charlie Kirks assassination."

You do realize when you echo crazy conspiracy theory lies it just destroys your credibility with everything else you say?

Even closed loop data centers use a lot of water in their power generation, typically way more than cooling chips uses.

It's about twice the size of Texas. Also The Ocean Cleanup is a terrible organization run by a techbro narcissist and should not be trusted.
