I had to explain to my mother the other day that this used to happen so often, even my Grandpa had a side hustle as a Navy commander to help buy his sailors' land, because VA loan or not, they wouldn't loan to some of them. And that was from the 60's to the 80's.
And if by ship, they're likely going to be straining the Navy between ports. Be a shame if something breaks too as we have less dock space available for repair than we did when we laid those keels.
I've got a new theory as to how many times Humanity has crashed into the Great Filter like a drunk college kid hitting a telephone pole on Memorial Day weekend.
These men learned nothing reading about Charlemagne or the Khan, eh? Wonder if we can convince him to have a thousand kids so he has a ton of heirs fighting over modest sums.

Line the bottom of a cake pan with pretzels, mix up mixed berry jello, with or without the true berries inside, and add whipped cream to the top. Let it set in the fridge before serving. Adds a nice bit of sweet and salty, and an appreciable crunch.
I mean valid. I was mostly just supporting you've got a good use case by pointing out the industry is aiming for your ideal utilization. Personally I also agree with you in that a more pared down model usually can be more effective.
Yeah, that's the eventual industry goal with "agentic AI". Still, absurd waste of power, water, and arable land in the end; especially since the big wigs aren't even really doing much that's innovative to reduce the draw to any of those. Hell, they'll build a data center in one of the world's hottest deserts on faith they can tap an aquifer. Wild really.
