  • Macron urges Europe to simplify its regulations to get back into the AI race

    Jump

  • Regulations only work in improving the well-being of the single market if the local producers can remain competitive after implementation. There are a small number of regulations in the EU which have damaged local manufacturers without significant improvement in quality of life e.g the medical device regulation. I do not know enough about the ai regulation to understand if it is for for purpose or not however.

    Given the "free for all" other countries appear to be giving their AI systems, the EU may look to re-consider the ai regulation's implementation.

  • Autistic Comedian shoots down audience member who says he can't be Autistic

  • You mean the underpaid people who often try their best, pay for materials (and sometimes even class parties) out of their own pocket and enter into one of the least rewarding professions are as a whole, bastards?

    This teacher may be a clown, but don't try lump them in with a 30 second sound byte from a clown. She may just be sick of all the autistic jokes she has to hear.

    My teachers turned up each day and put up with me and the class often being little shits, I am eternally grateful for them.

    Also, if you rename special needs care as "accessibility" then in 2 years that will become the next insult.

  • This is not correct. Bluetooth is a radio frequency communication tool. RF is part of the electromagnetic spectrum and does, in fact, "move' at the speed of light.

  • SEFE and ACWA Power enter into partnership to supply 200,000 tons of green hydrogen annually to Germany and Europe

    Jump

  • We can get back on topic :) Green hydrogen still doesn't make sense compared to direct use of energy, except in some cases (steel production and long haul flights are normally quoted as these use cases)

    Hydrogen requires 40 kWh of electricity to produce 1 kg (equivalent to ~ 29 kWh). So you have lost around 30% just at production. Then you need to compress and cool is significantly to transport, which requires again significant energy and then you need to actually move it which is again energy intensive.

    It would be far more efficient to simply use some areas where renewables can be built out in significant proportion and then transport the (e.g.) electricity directly to the exchange via HVDC cables where it is needed. And where hydrogen is still viable, it can be electrolysed closer to the use case.

  • I never said anything about hating the Saudi's. I said hydrogen as a general energy source doesn't make sense at the moment.

    The only cheap hydrogen is grey hydrogen which helps nobody at the moment, might as well just import oil/gas instead. "Green" hydrogen is not cost effective, even with solar prices where they are - why not just build a subsea power cable if Saudia Arabia wants to send energy to the EU? It would probably be cheaper and more efficient in the long run.

    Your links to household energy prices are dumb - what natural resource do most middle east states have that EU countries (e.g. Germany) do not have in such vast quantities? I'll give you a hint, it's used for energy production...

    EU prices are currently high because the EU rejected its cheapest source of energy because the supplier turned out to be a cunt.

    I don't know if turning to another autocratic regime will be better for it in the long run, what do you think?

  • The economics do not make sense. This is a fluff piece.

  • True, but I don't think anyone expects a balanced US budget at this stage of global economics. IMO a loss of the AAA rating would tank the economy significantly and risk a massive corporate backlash. This will make the government's stance untenable and cannot simply be solved by issuing unlimited debt.

  • This seems very odd... Can you give me a source on that? Both the shredding of federal tax income and the relation to public expenditure? It appears I have much to learn

  • Here's my uneducated take, with little to no understanding of what's going on in detail:

    US public debt is at extraordinary levels. The treasury is hesitant to issue more debt and Donny doesn't want to start his tenure with raising taxes on poor people (that will come in a few months, under the pretense to raise money for war with China or some shit). Therefore, he needs to collect money, whilst appeasing to right nationalists & business. Enter: Tarrifs.

    Destroy my armchair take!

  • I have a Clara 2E. It was some time ago, so I cannot remember all the fine details, but I couldn't get mine to start without some internet connection. I gave a throwaway email and allowed it to update before I switched off WiFi and could freely move books with Calibre.

    To it's credit, in 3 years since purchase it has not asked for internet since switching it on the first time.
