• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Is there any way the average American can insulate themselves from the AI bubble bursting?⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Weird question. Not clear anything you can do.

  First, AI bubble means datacenter bubble. Nvidida, AMD, TSMC, Chinese equivalents will do fine, as they have options to make products for non datacenter use.

  Scenarios:

  1. No mass corporate uptake for datacenters, or requirement to encrypt upload/download traffic to corporate owned models hosted by datacenters. Amazon/Google/MSFT can win relatively such a race if they allow private encrypted models instead of their own, and can buy distressed assets from failures. It just means slower than announced deployment rates, with only losers those datacenters who get married to losers.

  2. CPU enhanced AI (knowledge graphs) with/or smaller LLMs. Datacenters can still provide corporate users, but mix of regular and gpu datacenters, Datacenters can lose big if next big thing requires replacing hardware, and they were too early. Shift in winners and losers, but not an AI/datacenter bubble.

  3. Few of the announced datacenters are ever built, or 5 year+ delays. Public company investments will go down a little, but nothing catastrophic for big tech, who can make it up in other areas. Power company histeria is an associated bubble that does poorly. This is a very likely scenario.

  4. Datacenters are successful and aggressively built. No AI bubble, because government surveillance revenue is obtained, and heavy government use of LLMs to keep population pro Israel/oligarchy/militarism. A freedom and jobs bubble is not better than an AI bubble.

  Meme stock mania means even the biggest losers can rebound strongly. An everyone else bubble happens whether or not AI datacenters are successful.

  In several mathematical notation systems, the most important being APL/J, programming languages inspired to codify “tools of thought” notation as code, the log function is ln. 10&log is base 10 log.

  Although RFKjr has some crazy ideas, not adding food colouring to the balanced diet pyramid is not one of them, and one that any other GOP fascist loyalist, given the job, would gladly do it if given a dollar for it. Energy secretary as an example is full oligarchist energy protectionism.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨2022 vs. 2026 FIFA World Cup ticket prices⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Is that standard uniform ticketmaster prices? What are typical NFL regular, playoff, and superbowl prices?

  from gemini

  NFL Ticket prices
  Season/Round Price Range Notes
  Regular Season $50 - $500+ Upper-level seats can start around $50-$100, while premium lower-level and club seats can cost $200-$500+. The average NFL ticket price in 2023 was $377, a jump from $235 in 2022. Team popularity and opponent rivalry significantly influence pricing. According to vocal.media, the average cost of NFL season tickets in 2024 ranged between $600 and $3,000 per seat.
  Wild Card Round Starting around $145 Prices can fluctuate, with some games seeing higher averages.
  Divisional Round Starting around $400 Some games have averaged around $993.
  Conference Championships Starting around $800 Expect to pay at least $800 for the most affordable tickets.
  Super Bowl Starting around $2,000 - $3,000 Seats can exceed $1,800, especially in high-demand markets. The average price for Super Bowl 2025 tickets was reported at $8,076 by StubHub, down 14% from 2024. Previous Super Bowls have seen average prices like $12,082 (2024) and $8,907 (2023). Prices on the secondary market are typically higher than face value.

  I don’t expect a lot of tourism demand to come to US, especially with ICE announcing any excuse to raid the superbowl of all events. World cup is more popular with immigrants and tourists than NFL, and “NFL demographic” tends to have low interest in soccer. MLS (pro soccer in US) is 6x lower ticket prices than NFL.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Why do companies always need to grow?⁩ ⁨⁨3⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Some companies do not pursue further growth, usually because they are not confident they can. They use/harvest their profit stream to repay shareholders. A confident company can spend its cashflow on growth because it expects an ROI for doing so, and so even higher future cashflow.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Trump says TikTok should be tweaked to become “100% MAGA”⁩ ⁨⁨4⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  China has cleared regulatory hurdles to allow a deal on their terms. Deal includes leasing the algorithm at a 20% revenue royalty. Which is $2-$3B payment/year to ByteDance. Previous valuations of US operations were $40B at high end which means profit under $2B/year, and so the buyers are buying a money losing business that they have to invest to grow sales and lose even more from the royalty payments.

  The criticism that this is a sweetheart deal for MAGA supporters is false. This is just Zionazi media consolidation to ensure Zionazi/MAGA censorship. Like all Zionazi media, operational profit is not the purpose.

  It took me a while to understand the graph too. All of the information needed is included in OP image. Posting what may be Trump/RFK propaganda that may or not be based on lies and non data, just to attack it for not being the absolute clearest graph is posting Trump propaganda. Graph would be clearer if they omitted birth years. OK.

  Posting this is still equivalent to “sun goes up sun goes down. ain’t nobody understand that” manipulation that reinforces people’s lack of understanding to trust the speaker on anything and everything.

  OK there are not 2 bars per year. 2nd last is 2020, last 2022.

  It’s not clear why everyone is mad at the chart. It does show an increase. Though, this is about autism diagnoseses, which can be influenced by kickback bribes for diagnoseses.

  There is a sharper (exponential) increase since 2012, even though pharma corruption solutions existed many years before then, afaik. Some explanation for the acceleration is needed. Its not tylenol or any new vaccines.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dinner is ready! ⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Urban Canada has cuisine from everywhere. You’re not forced to eat Canadian shit recipes. Though tourtierre is nice holiday tradition for me. Maple syrup is world’s greatest sugar. Indian/Chinese/Asian food with Canadian meat is great. Atlantic Salmon sushi, awesome.

  Globalization of ingredients works quite well almost anywhere. Tomatoes, melons, strawberries perhaps exceptions where travel in season can be 10x the experience. Local indoor growing would solve this, cheaper than traveling to have a melon.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dinner is ready! ⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Seems like everyone is answering “cuisine” instead of ingredients. All of France beats 1/6th of Italy. Bread making is France and India. But Canada has all the recipes and ingredient quality from all over the world.

  If sourcing ingredients is the question, G more than D, if grown outdoors, but G has negative geopolitical support, and ingredients can be grown indoors in H. F is where coffee and cocoa come from, and I have addictions.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨PUT THE TRAINS IN THE BAG⁩ ⁨⁨5⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  One reason for this is hurricanes are more frequent, and sometimes the notice level is too short to have safe evacuation from Miami through highway systems. There has been anger over deaths from evacuation, when a storm warning did not destroy as many homes as was “hoped”/feared.
