No problem. Take a closer look a the link, particularly the graphs.

You guys need to learn how to make a decent ham salad sandwich
- Comment on Scientists make game-changing breakthrough that could slash costs of solar panels: 'Has the potential to contribute to the energy transition' 1 day ago:
No, the opposite. They are superior. Bifacial panels have a 3% additional yield over standard panels. The +10-20% cost premium is covered by the +30% revenue
Even with traditional mountings, Bifacial panels pick up extra light reflected from the ground.

I don’t think we are arguing. I was just giving you more details.

Biracial panels as a fence provides 3% extra yield but 30% extra revenue
- Comment on Scientists make game-changing breakthrough that could slash costs of solar panels: 'Has the potential to contribute to the energy transition' 1 day ago:
Solar panels as fences is what is needed.

Cory Doctorow wrote a pretty entertaining book on the subject of tech vs politics.
- Comment on Exclusive: Evidence of cell phone surveillance detected at anti-ICE protest 5 days ago:
It also means we don’t have to obey the law
Not true. Even pre ICE. Law enforcement is allowed to lie to you, but you cannot lie to them. The playing field is not level.

- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 1 week ago:
Dunno. Asking 10 humans at random to do a task and probably one will do it better than AI. Just not as fast.

Coffee and chocolate have much better PR than red meat.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 1 week ago:
Being vegetarian is worth about one return transatlantic flight per year.
- Comment on YSK that apart from not having a car, the single greatest thing you can do for the climate is simply eating less red meat 1 week ago:
Only true in the 1st world.

It’s poultry.
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 1 week ago:
That looks better. Even with a fair coin, 10 heads in a row is almost impossible.
And if you are feeding the output back into a new instance of a model then the quality is highly likely to degrade.
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 1 week ago:
No the chances of being wrong 10x in a row are 2%. So the chances of being at least right once are 98%.

I can imagine an posh British etiquette expert selling this with a straight face.
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 1 week ago:
Very fair comment. In my experience even increasing the temperature you get stuck in local minimums
I was just trying to illustrate how 70% failure rates can still be useful.
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 1 week ago:
About 0.02
- Comment on AI agents wrong ~70% of time: Carnegie Mellon study 1 week ago:
Run something with a 70% failure rate 10x and you get to a cumulative 98% pass rate. LLMs don’t get tired and they can be run in parallel.
- Comment on Companies That Tried to Save Money With AI Are Now Spending a Fortune Hiring People to Fix Its Mistakes 1 week ago:
Think of AI as a hard working, arrogant, knowledgeable, unimaginative junior intern.
The vibe coding is great for small, self contained tasks. It doesn’t scale to a codebase (yet?).

Thanks. I wasn’t familiar with the abbreviation and of course Google offered no insights.

What is SKG?
- Comment on Founder of Arkane Studios: "I think Gamepass is an unsustainable model that has been increasingly damaging the industry for a decade"; impacts sales 1 week ago:
What’s “short” about the short-sightedness, though?
Gamepass attacks the developers, not the consumers.

The only part of the gamepass that is monopolistic is the friends network it creates.

- Comment on ‘The vehicle suddenly accelerated with our baby in it’: the terrifying truth about why Tesla’s cars keep crashing 1 week ago:
Upgrading a computer is very different to adding a new sensor array all around the body.
I’m not saying upgrading older cars the only reason for excluding lidar, but I bet it was a large factor.

This statement works from anyone’s PoV.
