@benbawan While the status quo is not terrible, the debt could get out of control quite quickly. Yields for new bonds are at 5% and the debt-to-gdp ratio is significantly over 100%. They could easily be paying 5% of GDP in interest in just a few years.
@ragefighthouse The bar exam and the LSAT are fundamentally different. You take the LSAT as an admission test for law school - before having any typ of schooling. The bar exam is where you are tested after completing law school, if you want to practice law
@eI4kZoucz3kLTOB@HenryWuuuuuu@bullusy As a German this is really surprising to me. We often have the feeling that our education system is deteriorating and we can't compare with asian competition. It's nice to hear, that this is not always the case
@l3d1c@autohematophagy On a sunny day Split might be one of the most beautiful cities there is. It's like comparing your family car with a sports car - not a fair comparison
@SugoiDekaiArt@Perowinger94@Vigohamburgo Lithium ist nicht wirklich selten genug, dass sich Kriege darum lohnen. Mit Natriumakkus und Recycling wird die Abhängigkeit langfristig eher noch sinken
@kulze@Perowinger94@Vigohamburgo Die Akkus werden in Anlagen wie der von VW in Salzgitter recycelt. Der Strom für die Autos kommt in erster Linie aus Solar und Wind, in Ausnahmefällen aus Importen oder aus Back-Up-Gaskraftwerken. Die Netzbelastung kann minimiert werden, indem zu Randzeiten günstig geladen wird
@SenatorBobBo Das ist genau die Art von Entlastung, auf die viele gehofft haben. Teilweise mussten Arbeitnehmer auch ihre Home Office Geräte zur Prüfung bringen. Vollkommen unnötige Kosten und Aufwand. Ein kleiner aber richtiger Schritt in Richtung weniger Bürokratie
@blwiertz Why would anyone build formula 1 cars? A jet plane is better suited to go fast.
In the end it is an engineering competition, without direct application. But I am sure the engineers learn a lot - and they can allocate funding and publicity
@tadevosyan_alen@blwiertz Isn't 2 legs, 2 arms more or less the definition of a humanoid robot? It doesn't mean there can't be other types of robots but humanoid robots are the easiest to integrate in a human centered environment.
@TimConley@PTrubey It certainly is possible to cool satellites in space by radiators, but the amount of heat produced by a data center would still be challenge. The EATCS system of the ISS can reject up to 70 kW. But a space data center might be in the scale of GW.
@IterIntellectus It is really impressive, but the cost scale in this picture is logarithmic. Meaning an exponential curve would be expected even for a linear correlation
@SpasyukD@dming@sam_mielke Yes this is how an economy works? Both parties in your example made profit because they both had a part in making a product, i.e. apple juice. You now have apple juice, which you didn’t have before
@dpolitx@olivergorus Was für geniale Erkenntnisse!!! Dass die tausenden von Wissenschaftlern, Unternehmern und Politikern da noch nicht drauf gekommen sind. Sie sollten zum nächsten Klimagipfel und der Welt ihre Überlegungen präsentieren. Oder Sie beschäftigen sich mal mit dem Klimawandel
