Data center water use is a really interesting question. It seems like a space with a lot of room for technological improvement, where we've simply been optimizing for the wrong thing so far: we've been minimizing energy use, but there are a lot of opportunities for being more careful about water consumption.
I don't think much of this is down to "AI" specifically. If we outlawed all NNs bigger than 1B, I don't think the number of data centers would stop growin…

It's time for the #EV industry to hold itself to a higher standard when it comes to roaming. You can't have your cake and eat it. Make the cake bigger!

I fully agree with Christian Weinberger's call here: Isn't it time we stop pretending roaming works and start holding the ecosystem to a higher standard? As a fossil in this industry, I remember how EV roaming took off 15 years ago – it was a no-brainer from a user perspective and a logical step to ensure that the EV charging market could grow, benefiting everyone in the sector. As an early electric car driver eager to travel abroad, I spent a lot of time getting the right passes for local n…

Neue Castor-Gespräche zwischen Bund und NRW geplant - STOP Westcastor
„Wir begrüßen, dass es nun endlich zu Gesprächen zwischen dem Bund und NRW kommen soll. Genau das fordern wir schon seit Jahren und wir erwarten, dass die beteiligten Ministerien nun konstruktiv und zielorientiert verhandeln."

The @… crew are doing a group order of meshtastic wireless devices.
We've selected the Wismesh Pocket v2 plus a small card sized sensor / buzzer. These connect up to 7 hops and we'll be installing 2 solar powered repeaters in Gastown & Mt Pleasant (as well as direct between any two devices)

Survey: Q1 How big is your phone? What else would you carry in a belt bag? I made some that fit my iPhone 11 hard case (6.5”x5” x2”), but know other people carry bigger phones and more stuff...
Q2 These fit 32-43” waist (adjustable). In future bags what waist size range should I make? Maybe a 28” and up? (I’ll look at garment sizes too. I want to fit the widest range possible.) PS. The red sparkle bag has a glow in the dark stripe! Thanks infinitely in advance!

Der damalige Bundesverkehrsminister Alexander Dobrindt auf einem Empfang von Bitkom:
„Der bisher gültige Grundsatz, dass Datensparsamkeit das Übermaß der Dinge ist, der hat sich überholt, der muss weg. Datenreichtum muss der Maßstab sein, nach dem wir unsere Politik ausrichten.“
Wie beurteilt ihr die #Bitkom?
Ist die Laudatio von @…

Noticed a bunch of colorful "buscar trabajo" signs along the road today. I figure the phone number is a direct line to ICE.

Cory Booker isn't trending on #blackmastodon or #blackfedi ?
Yikes. Red flag, as the kids say.
Anyway, that was amazing and incredible and a ray of hope for all of this. Good stuff.

Win Probabilities, Hand Sizes, and Game Duration Analysis in the Bhikar-Sawkar Card Game
We present a Monte Carlo simulation study of the Bhikar-Sawkar card game, a non-deterministic game structurally similar to the classic Beggar-My-Neighbour, which is fully deterministic. Although both games share a common setup, key differences in their rules, particularly the reshuffling of cards after each won hand in Bhikar-Sawkar, introduce stochasticity and significantly increase the space of possible game evolutions. This inherent randomness raises a range of interesting statistical questi…

- I found my love in Portofino / Dalida
I found my love in Portofino
Perché nei sogni credo ancor
Lo strano gioco del destino
A Portofino m'ha preso il cuor

Nel dolce incanto del mattino
Il mare ti ha portato a me
Socchiudo gli occhi e a me vicino
A Portofino rivedo te
Ricordo un angolo di cielo
Dove ti stavo ad aspettar
Ricordo il volto tanto amato
E la tua bocca da baciar
