we’d still have to contend with the extreme energy use,
Meanwhile people running it on Raspberry PI: “I made it consume 1W less, which is 30% improvement!”
and the epistemic chaos of being able to generate convincing bullshit much quicker than it can be detected and flagged.
It’s been this way long before modern AI.

That’s some anime censorship style camera placement

And it’s also stupid from the company’s perspective. If someone has the flu and you have them come in - well - everyone will be sick and everyones performance will suffer.
You underestimate capitalism

- Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 4 weeks ago:
Correct. And temperature does not depend on length. We already said it.

*insert technically correct*
- Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 4 weeks ago:
Yes, maximum carried current is indeed invariant of length. I explained math behind it in lemm.ee/comment/17115060
- Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 4 weeks ago:
And more surface area for heat dissipation. lemm.ee/comment/17115060
- Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 4 weeks ago:
On a scale from “smoking 20 packs of cigarettes a day” to “stubbing your toe on a really heavy piece of furniture”, how dangerous would you subjectively rate daisy chaining extension cords
As dangerous as one extension cord of their combined length. Don’t forget to verify that every cord is below load rating.
AND NEVER COIL OR THERMALY INSULATE! Cords rely on convection for heat dissipation, and spooling and insulating reduces it, thus increasing insulation temperature until it melts and spontaneously combusts. This applies to extension cords in general.
- Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 4 weeks ago:
And temperature difference to ambient temperature is
thermal resistivity * dissipated power / (2\*π\*radius\*length). If you will plugdissipated power = resistance * current^2and resistance into it, you will see, that temperature difference is invariant of length. - Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 4 weeks ago:
The longer the wire, the more heat it can dissipate, so no, you don’t need wire to be thicker.

Inductance is not the reason here
- Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 4 weeks ago:
Yes! There is a video about this. Heat in spool of cord is trapped.
- Comment on Why is daisychaining multiple extension cords considered unsafe, even if only done to the length of a standard cable? 4 weeks ago:
It doesn’t make sense. Temperature difference does not depends on length.

If you ignore fact that almost all fundamental research was done or paid by goverment. Where is private CERN? Private ISS? Heck, where computers would be if not for brittish, american and soviet state research programs? Even companies like Intel were created by goverment funding.
- Comment on Anon hates smartphones 5 weeks ago:
Capitalism’s industrial revolution did not happen in a bubble. It did not invent science that allowed the industrial revolution, it took advantage of existing discoveries to take a very dehumanizing route to wrong destination.
- Comment on Anon hates smartphones 5 weeks ago:
No, capitalism only incentivises profiting.
I’m not cheering for capitalism, just saying it takes advantage of the inherent greed of people to quickly speed innovation.
Except in the end you will get innovations of greed.
There would be no industrial revolution without capitalism.
Wrong! Sadly, article is only in Russian.
