The above writeup mentioned New England, Los Angeles and Utah. The first two are both exclusively Democrat run, and Utah is more purple these days. Nothing to stop your queen from putting the kibosh on coal plants in your state. Also, the bulk of coal plants are in states like WV, VA, KY,.... and there was no mention of plants there closing down

...all the stuff written previously in C/C++ or any other language, is being re-written in Rust? Why not write just newer things in Rust, while leaving old working code alone?

Also, Russia gets its drones from Iran, of all places. It's not like Iran could legally buy semiconductors from US makers. It's probably from China, and therefore, if Kyiv wants to sue anybody, it should be the Chinese manufacturers who sell those parts to Iran to manufacture them for Russia

Yeah, Chandler seems pretty justified in rejecting it

In fact, why don't they build data centers in Alaska, where energy is cheap, and where all that heating would be offset by the ambient temperatures? They don't need many people there, so that should be the perfect location for those datacenters

I consider it interesting that Phia is available as a browser extension on Chrome and Safari but not on Edge

Sitting in a cafe in the city of Mykolaiv right now, everything runs on generators. Earlier today, around 7:45 local time a few shahed drones flew over the city, this was after a lqrge attack from about 6 hours prior. Multiple energy distribution systems were hit in multiple regions. There were people killed, some drones hit homes, there were myltiple kinjal (dagger) missiles launched from mig-31 platforms. I crossed the border to Ukraine over 2 weeks ago, spent a week in Kiev, a day in Lviv, a day in Odessa, etc. Everywhere there are issues with energy distribution. Where I am now there are issues with watwr as well of course. People keep going because tbat is what people do, nobody here wants to give up anything to ruzzia, they want to stop the war in a way that prevents future attacs from the scourge that is ruzzia. As to this lawsuit, it is completely justified but it is not enough. Europe is giving ruzzia more money every year in oil and purchases than Europe spends on this war, given tbat Ukraine is protecting Europe from putin taking this war further west, I find this behaviour atrocious.

I had read that MIPS has pretty much abandoned its ISA in favor of RISC-V. Not a major deal, since only 2 instructions were different. Also, in addition to OpenSparc and OpenPower, ARM itself is "open" in the sense that it can be licensed, after a company pays an upfront membership fee (According to Steve Furber, it was to keep ARM from going into the red).. I daresay one could even do what Cyrix and Centaur, in addition to AMD, used to do in the 90s w/o running afoul of either Intel or AMD ISA patents

How?

...the Tenth Amendment, IANAL, but sure looks this way

The extra work needed can be offloaded to AI, so the few people who are there can live the way they always did

They'll have plenty of opportunities elsewhere in the continent - Spain, France, Germany, Britain and beyond

Currently, there are 32, 64 and 128 bit versions. Would they need a 16 bit version for really low end, embedded applications?

In fact, MIPS has pretty much gone wholly w/ the RISC-V architecture for all future designs and implementations. I looked, and only 2 instructions are different b/w MIPS and RISC-V

RISC-V is under an MIT license, not GPL. Nobody has to make designs "free" after improving and optimizing the base designs

Yeah, I'd think that Australian kids will end up better off as a result
