A steam engine that runs on the waste heat of a jet engine. Sort of.

They won’t because we would go to war to prevent that because we need the Taiwan chips. If China started shit with Taiwan right now it would be economic suicide for them.

If I have to believe John Oliver, it's more about companies making fake claims that they are preventing forestation from happening and adding that to their numbers.

The ones about how it’s important for people to get back to the office for their social lives are really something.
If y’all cared that much about our social lives y’all would give us bigger paychecks and less hours we had to work.

However, the documentary fails to specify what percentage of pellets are made this way. In fact most are made from sawmill waste, which is cheaper and available in enormous volume.

We could switch the entire planet to renewables in 10 years if there was enough pressure. Everyone is just lazy.

Actually Indian government wants Companies to promote WFH to cut down on travel and pollution. The cost saved on fixing, upgrade and building more new infrastructure is higher than taxes generated from these offices which will stay in business anyway albeit in a reduce capacity. What is the point of slashing corporate tax rates and then want offices and commercial establishments to pay more taxes. Additionally, Asian and European cities have a lot mixed used neighborhoods which don't decay unlike the American ones after the labor moves out.

Reply to comment by goatAlmighty in LastPass Says DevOps Engineer Home Computer Hacked by CrankyBear
The key logger was on the employee’s personal non work issued computer. Not their work station. What location it happened in is irrelevant here because you can work remotely and the expectation is your work device is just as secure as it would be on site. Nothing happened on their workstation.
They gained access to the employees master password when the employee was using their personal device and that gave them access to the employees corporate vault. That’s where it’s odd because why would they allow their employees to share their personal and work vaults. Don’t quite yet understand that link. They should be two separate accounts and two different vaults.

What is up with these articles trying to push for a return to office? I love WFH and really don’t want my CEO being propagandized to think it’s better to go back

I thought it was the algae in the ocean that does the most scrubbing. Which isn't always good since it makes the ocean more acidic and it messed with shell fish's shells.

So video super resolution code is part of the chromium code and not a part of “chrome only” code?

USA has 1.5 million truck driving jobs, 3 million cashier jobs, 1.5 million book keeping jobs, 2 million administrative assistants, etc.
If you consider AI taking half of those jobs over the next 50 years or something which seems almost inevitable its pretty clear AI is lined up to cause a pretty big shift in employment. It's really just a question of how quickly.

It’s incredibly difficult to find values for this, mainly because depending on weather conditions and the type of turbine it will consume differing amounts of oil. I’d love to give you an estimation but I don’t presently have the time to research and provide a good estimate as too how much they require.
I will note that the oil being used by the turbines is not being burned/converted to CO2, it’s being used as lubrication. This isn’t saying it’s free of CO2 production, as the synthesis of the industrial lubricants used in wind turbines produces considerable amounts of CO2.

The browser has to support it itself, so if they get new builds based on chromium new code then they probably will.

“Experts”. Yeah people with considerable understanding and experience in the many-as-to-be-statistically-significant historical instances of how AI triggered/didn’t trigger industrial revolutions.

That’s a misunderstanding of why academia frowns upon Wikipedia. The fact that it can have questionable accuracy is not the major concern, but rather that it is not a primary source
