CXMT will sell the chips to memory manufacturers in China for "domestic use only" at near cost price as directed by the CCP.
Those manufacturers will construct consumer ram modules and sell them locally, and there will be grey market exports to other countries for ridiculously low prices compared to everyone else.
This way the CCP props up domestic supply, and chips away at foreign manufacturer market share by turning a blind eye to the massive grey market export of RAM.
No, no, no, you don't understand, that doesn't happen in the US.
What will happen is that they'll get a trillion dollar bailout, a yuuuuge amount of protectionary tarrifs on overseas competitors and then some other company will scoop them up with no obligations.
And then - and this is very important - maximum profit will be extracted from consumers, who end up being measurably worse off.
It's the place to be if you want to buy an ebike or electric scooter from the, uh, legitimate owner, that for some reason just happens to be missing its charger.
I'm quite sick of my browsers auto-updating and adding stuff I don't need.
I'm pretty much at the point where I'm going to turn browser updates off. It's perfectly functional for me as is, and if I ever hear of some crippling browser security issue I'll consider its impact myself before thinking about updating.
Wow, Australia really fell for the whole "Electric Motors" leftist conspiracy didn't they?
Australians aren't stupid. If EVs and hybrids have reached a price/performance/practicality point where it makes sense to jump to them, then they will.
They don't give a crap about people who carry on about woke leftist conspiracy agendas or whatever, especially when the bulk of those people come from the country that thought that crippling oil production in the Middle East was a good idea.
I did some work for a company that owned a /16 public IP range and used it on their internal network. I had to put a safety rated control system on it that ran mining machines that weighed 60 tons and cost a couple of million bucks each.
They gave me a subnet range for the system that was clearly non-private and I was like, "ummmmm, is that on the Internet?"
Apparently it wasn't routed to the rest of the Internet but it always felt like it was one misconfigured router away from disaster.
Good for you, you're really rocking this whole internets thing! 👍
Meanwhile, if you're not willing or interested enough to put in ONE (1) sentence in your post describing it, then I consider your contribution to Lemmy to be marginal at best.
Chucking a comment on your post with a one-sentence summary of what the video is about would go a long way towards stopping these kinds of grumbles.
All I've got to go on at the moment is the usual YouTube clickbait thumbnail with obligatory reaction face and let's face it, that's not much incentive to click through.
LLMs didn't spring forth fully-formed out of the void, there are actual companies and actual people responsible for their construction, and thus, responsible for their output.
Just because current norms seem to handwave that responsibility away doesn't mean that they are not responsible.
We all laugh about LLMs recommending a cup of glue being added to your pizza toppings. But there are increasing cases of considerable harm occuring from LLM "advice", and no amount of "LLMs might give inaccurate answers" fine print attached to results is going to save big corps if something sizeable happens and multiple deaths occur.
If you are wondering why the US government is upset about this, here is a brief list of companies below that have headquartered in Ireland because they are a bit of a tax haven. So I consider this to be a quite astute move by the Irish government to place pressure upon the US government via its corporate overlords.
Apple: Historically used notorious loopholes to lower its effective tax rate to under 2%. Following a landmark European Court of Justice ruling, the company was ordered to pay back $14 billion (€13 billion) in unlawful tax benefits to the Irish state.
Microsoft: Routinely routes astronomical sums through Irish subsidiaries. One of its main Irish entities notoriously posted £220 billion in profit in a single year while paying zero corporate tax via loophole setups.
Google (Alphabet) and Meta (Facebook): Both long utilized complex accounting strategies like the "Double Irish" to transfer intellectual property (IP) and globally generated revenues into the Irish jurisdiction.
Medtronic: A major U.S. medical device firm that legally moved its corporate headquarters to Ireland via a $48 billion tax inversion acquisition.
Allergan: A pharmaceutical giant that executed a similar $66 billion corporate inversion to establish its tax base in Ireland.
Other Tech & Biotech Leaders: Major corporations like Pfizer, Oracle, Dell, Airbnb, and LinkedIn maintain substantial operations and book vast non-U.S. revenues through Ireland.
Have you been living under a rock? This messaging about the AusAlert test has been going on for a solid two months, on television, on radio, in printed media, and all over the internet.
The alert system utilises existing software in nearly every modern smartphone and it is used in plenty of countries around the world.
Japan uses it for earthquake alerts before the actual earthquake arrives.
States in the US use it for missing kid alerts - when they've just been noticed missing, right in that critical timeframe where they are easiest to find.
South Korea uses it for alerting when their North Korean neighbours are getting a bit antsy, and for other, less emergency-ish uses. When I was in South Korea during covid the local government would loudly broadcast daily infection numbers as an emergency alert, so I went into my phone's settings and turned it off
Of course, the Australian government won't mention how to turn it off because they want people to be aware of these alerts. But for people with hidden phones it's very important information to know, and I dislike that no mention of the ability to silence it has been made in media.
In Android, it's under Settings -> Safety and Emergency -> Wireless Emergency Alerts. You can turn off numerous sub-categories of emergency alerts in there.
In iPhone, it's in Settings -> Notifications -> Government Alerts/Enhanced Safety Alerts -> Again, you can turn off any categories you deem irrelevant.
English definitely needs more clues for pronunciation. Plenty of homographs could have been cleared up with diacritics. Wind/Wind, Bow/Bow, Sewer/Sewer, etc.
I actually have been using claude to go through all my old projects and review from a security perspective.
It flags a heap of things that I never considered, mainly because a lot of my projects were ad-hoc solutions to various issues that were written in a hurry and never intended to be visible to the general internet. But it also has been suggesting architectural and robustness changes that have some value, as a lot of stuff I wrote grew organically and weren't structured particularly well for future growth.
He's using a "thorn" cuz he's so tistic and awesome.
The poster's stance is that one day they hope to see thorns in AI generated text.
This is probably quite difficult to actually happen, as LLMs will see the characters as a spelling mistake compared to their general corpus of text and correct them.
In the meantime it makes their posts difficult to parse and irritates other readers, so surely this can be considered a win for everyone in the fight against AI. /s
