Perhaps more to do with this. Google no longer has legal problems in the US under Trump.

- Comment on Battery giant CATL showcases three innovations: 1500km range battery, 520km in 5 minutes ultra-fast charging, and 2025 mass-production sodium-ion battery 1 day ago:
Some additional keywords on the tech behind this extended range capability:
… self-generated anode battery technology (which no longer uses traditional graphite anode material but allows elements to deposit on the current collector in metallic form, increasing volumetric energy density by 60% and gravimetric energy density by 50%) … Additionally, CATL’s self-generated anode technology can be adapted to multiple material systems. For example, when paired with sodium-ion systems, the energy density can reach 350Wh/L; with phosphate systems, it can reach 680-780Wh/L; and with ternary systems, it can exceed 1000Wh/L.

You may still get hit with the tariff if it’s shipped from overseas. In such a scenario, you’re the importer and likely responsible for any duties and fees.

It’s got no legal standing, but as many things in life, when you want to advocate for something and you want to say that something is important to people, the arguments are a lot easier to make when you have “evidence.” A bunch of signatures can serve this purpose. This petition could even be just a first step, to be followed by others methods or actions.
Another function it could serve is getting people engaged and aware of the issue, spreading further awareness.
Another function is getting the contact information of people willing to do something about this issue. They could later leverage that to ask for other actions that are more meaningful.

That’s not necessarily the point. Organizing political action has many components and if the IA want these signatures, perhaps they need them. This is not necessarily the same as a random person making a random petition on change.org.

I’ve never felt better about denying that Palantir internship in 2010. Chances are I would have become a fully embedded psychopath by this point.

I think they’re talking about the suggestion to not use DeepSeek because China. And I think most here are assuming self-hosting LLMs. I am.

To add to this, it appears that only about 15% of China’s exports go to the US. I thought it’s much more than that.

- Comment on Would you use a self-hosted, AI-powered search engine for your favorite sites? 1 week ago:
I think the really useful idea here is solving the scaling issue by limiting the source sites to a known good set. 95% of the time I am not looking for results from unknown sites. In fact I actively work to get information from the sites I trust.

It depends on the voltage used. If they run 48V which seems to be supported by USB EPR. Then the cable has to do the same 5A it’s capable of doing today. Then the heat is the same.

USB 3 should be plenty fast. Even 4-disks per port do 600MB/s. Get some USB-SATA adapters, or a multibay box, or some enclosures, and a USB hub. I was running 2 4-bay boxes on 2 USB 3 5Gb ports with 8-disk RAIDz2. Peaks at 1.3GB/s.

AI can absolutely increase productivity in manufacturing. Not the generative AI bullshit, but computer vision for any processes that require visual inspection, AI models for some optimization problems like optimally packing hardware IPs on a silicon die.

The ones born after the Great Depression lived through an abnormal period of capitalism. One that featured a lot of socialist policies. As far as I’ve read, most people were well aware that capitalism was dog shit for the working class before that and a lot believed socialism was the solution.
