Nobody is going to spend a few hundred billion dollars developing an AI model and the system to run it on, and then turn it off and not turn it back on again.
AI is merely a computer program, it does not "resent".
Since humans can resent, it can precisely simulate resenting.
Maybe. Acid rain originates mostly from sulfates that come from burning coal (which contains sulfur as a contaminant.) But a large portion of the Delhi air pollution comes from burning the crop residue in fields to prepare the land for the next planting. This most likely doesn't produce sulfates.
True, but bear in mind that coal contains sulfur because it is fossilized plant matter that contained sulfur while it was alive. The residual organic matter from the crops most definitely contains sulfur. It can be more concentrated in coal, but the actual ratio between carbon and sulfur is going to be in the same general area.
not even close. Coal averages 2.5% sulfur. Plant matter averages about 0.25%.
They cite "cold winters" as why mosquitos aren't found in Iceland, but... Iceland doesn't have cold winters. In Reykjavik, their lowest mean daily minimum temperature is -2 C in January. Here in Montreal, it's -14 C, so much colder, and there have always been mosquitos in Montreal.
I would imagine that Iceland's cold *summers* is probably more responsible. It never gets very warm, with a highest mean daily maximum of 15 C in July, versus Montreal at 27 C.

Sure - because people who work 12 hours per day 6 days a week have time for relationships. Hell, they don't even have time for sex beyond a quick rub-one-out before falling asleep.
The better bet would be on paid sex workers in the workplace. But for them, a 996 schedule - even it it was mostly 69 work - would wear 'em out pretty fast. OTOH, at least the sex workers would have a benefits package beyond the friends-with-benefits angle...
The Texas grid came very close to collapsing* in the winter storm of 2021. It hasn't had a widespread, long-lasting failure since.
* in this case, collapsing means either a grid-wide outage requiring a "black start" or the grid suffering major physical damage that results in weeks-long outages or rolling blackouts. Texas's was able to survive without serioius physical damage or having to do a grid-wide "black start" by heavy load shedding. Much of the load shedding was planned/announced hours in advance, but some was unannounced or lasted much longer than planned (days instead of hours). Once the weather cleared up and fuel was able to get to the plants that were fuel-starved, the major parts of the grid came back up in a controlled and orderly fashion. There were no doubt some longer-lasting local outages but those were local issues, not grid-scale ones. Since then, the state has made its grid more resilient, so it should be able to withstand a similar situtation now.
Lower if I was writing new code that stretched my abilities, higher if I was doing code-monkey stuff that I dould do blindfolded with two hands tied behind my back.
I could "stretch" it if I had "breaks" like so: 160 hours one month, 200 the next, then back to 160 and so on, with weekends off all the way around.
My peak efficiency is lower now "because age."
Not yet haha!
They're not yet at the level of the UK either. They are over 10 times that of France. The "not yet" is doing some very heavy lifting. I'm not going to cheer on Germany for being so far a bit less shit than they were.
I do think disappearing people is wrong, obviously, although I'm not sure that's exactly what happened to Ma. Keeping in mind the damage it would have done to him to be publicly arrested or rebuked, and the fact that later the Chinese premier convinced him to move back to China, and then he attended various events including one with Xi... Well, it's not quite how it was portrayed in the Western media. Not good, but we don't really know what happened.
There has to be a balance somewhere between that and the EU's not-quite-strong-enough regulation of tech companies.

You've confused c.f. with e.g..
Only if you want your delivery to be very expensive. The article kind of didn't bother to mention that only the ZQ-3's first stage is reusable, so it's more like a "Starship-esque Falcon 9", both in terms of reusability, size, payload, diameter, etc..
Did you hear that two rabbits escaped from the zoo and so far they have only recaptured 116 of them?
