Oh, finally! Bipartisan consensus! We love to see it, folks.

"Extremely likely" -- says the only entity in control of the price. What are the odds? Who knows! It's extremely likely!
I think we can expect to see a future where a lot of Chinese computing is done on RISC-V. They will not have any need for American technology companies, b/c we don't do the manufacturing anyway. We just have the IP for entrenched technology. Americans were too short-sighted with all that trade war, Nvidia GPUs, and Huawei stuff. Why wouldn't your biggest trading partner take that as a warning sign that they must foster their own tech sector?
Also, when you can truly plan for longer terms than fiscal quarters or, if you're being really ambitious, fiscal years then I don't see how you can't just eventually dominate the sector.
Taking the joke a little too seriously, huh?
The phenomenon you describe is called Jevons paradox. Absent a law to safeguard the increased efficiency, the waste will follow quickly.
Wake me up when "ai" makes the amount of CO2 in the earth's atmosphere trend downward. Generative AI is just a way to burn electricity to take value produced by humans and then replace those same humans, all to line the pockets of the companies that can afford to churn all the data in the world.
For the handful of genuinely cool and interesting things it can do, the number of extremely awful costs and externalities is like 1000x worse.
I stopped posting there the moment they pulled the trigger on the API change. I used to like cruising LinuxQuestions and answering people, too.
I like to imagine that one arm of the American surveillance state started the exploit and the DOJ wrapped it up only after Fancy Bear noticed exploitable routers. I mean, there wasn't any evidence that this originated from Russia in the article, just the assertion that it was so. Who's checking?
This should be the fate of every single golf course
Russia has a certain flavor of lying that I don’t see elsewhere. They make claims that are so utterly ridiculous that everyone knows it is complete bullshit. It’s like some weird gaslighting / dominance thing.
There is one other place I do see this strategy replicated, which is from the IDF.
I haven't read Unauthorized bread but you've just reminded me of Stallman's "Right to Read" very short story, which is about a future where, God forbid, you might read someone else's book without paying a licensing fee. Not the most amazing story, but it perfectly presaged things like scientific journals being paywalled today.
Extremely upsetting this is a problem in the supposed greatest nation on earth.
