- Comment on As electric bills rise, evidence mounts that data centers share blame. States feel pressure to act 3 days ago:
I don’t think this is true, although maybe in some places.
For example, the more gas a business uses in the Netherlands, the less they generally pay per unit. This is terrible for our carbon footprint, where we basically subsidize the worst emitters. 😟
- Comment on ChatGPT Is Still a Bullshit Machine 5 days ago:
That’s what I thought but there’s slightly more than that.
The writer tried to trick ChatGPT 5, saying Vermont has no R in it. ChatGPT did say “wait, it does”. But then when pushed it said, “oh right there is no R in Vermont”.
I mean… the inability to know what it knows or not is a real problem for most use cases…

Planes are the safest form of transportation if you look at safety per km travelled. If you look at other metrics, like safety per trip or per travel time then they are less safe than busses or trains.
