? Sry?
Nuclear power costs a lot of money and is highly subsidiest.
A nuclear power plant needs tons of protection mechanism: has to withstand air plane attack, security clearance for all employees, tons of regulation.
Do you know what happens in Germany when a castor transport happens?
Do you know how expensive Tschernobyl still is?
And then you have the waste.
Any insight why it was postponed?
What's the difference this time?
My comment regarding education was for current Germany.
Modern Germany.
The country who helps tremendously around the globe with stable politics.
The country which did not hide it's past. We all learn in school about ww2.
Renewable most of the time allows to keep reserves and use them when necessary.
Also the renewable story is not just solar and wind but also short term energy storage.
The dependency to Russian gas is only 30%. Adding more thermal solar energy on roofs and bigger heat water storage is relatively easy to achieve.
Of course Germany should have pushed renewable even further and we did not. It's frustrating to see so little solar panels in cities.
There is nothing to 'eat up'.
Germany is not stupid.
1. I agree we should have not allowed that.
But otherwise let's see how it plays out.
Currently the sanction level is not low. It's already surprising high. Totally different to Crimea.
He has his position for how long?
Exactly.
He already mentioned his timeline.
Let's start critisis him when the time is right and not just a few month after the election.
And yes corona and Ukraine conflict adds additional burden on everyone.
To keep diplomatic solutions open as long as possible of course.
It's a different philosophy.
German is trying to be diplomatic and logical about it and not a military bully like the USA.
All your trump stuff doesn't matter, we are not the USA. We do not want to be proud Germans having dead relatives dying in useless wars.
Putin's attack on kiev is not just a bad day because of the death but also because the hopes of having proper diplomatic talks with Putin failed.
It's still a good thing that we tried.
Wtf?
Pls leave your comments at home.
We have a stable democracy for over 70 years. We are Europa power house, highly educated, make peace around the globe.
We have better soviel standards than most countries. Are way more social than USA.
You should really educate yourself...
It's just not that easy.
The war is a few days old. Everyone was hoping Putin is not lying in there faces.
Ukraine is not in the NATO and you want to find the right balance between total war and diplomatic ways.
And yes Russia has nuklear weapons btw.
You do ignore science on purpose?
Are you not aware that the fuel for nuklear is limited?
Do you ignore how cheap renewable is and how much nuklear is subsidiest?
Do you not care that no nuklear power operator has limited liability which means the costs of accidents are paid by all of us?
Is there anything of a real argument you can provide to proof your 'cashgrab shit against the naive hippies' statement?
Green is on the other side true but the current legislation works well together as far as I'm experiencing it.
It feels more like modern cooperation working together.
He made a plan for a new renewable energy push and started to visit every constituent state to discuss his plans. He is doing this hands on and pushing a strong renewable agenda.
There are already plans for laws which will force more investment and reduce burdens.
He talked about it in length just in January.
I'm not sure what you try to explain to me.
Independent of the military spending the military power of NATO is still bigger than Russia.
This is the point I made.
The greens were not in power whe Merkel decided this.
We also did not should down all of them.
And we still have energy. My flat is warm.
The Russian gas only makes 20-30%.
I'm totally lost on this weird rethoric.
And the greens, now in power, will startup the renewable push, see what habeck said and already is doing. CSU/CDU started it but didn't push through.
It's hopefull thinking. Which is not a bad thing to do.
But now it's time to accept Putin for what he is.
The energy we have.
Do you ignore Germany has nuclear power? Renewable energy as well?
And we have our own coal.
What do you think Germany is?
That's just not correct.
NATO has higher military power than Russia.
The reaction you see is diplomatic driven not military driven.
How about not assuming that one thing is depending on the other.
You are aware what Habeck is currently doing?
Why?
One thing has nothing to do with the other.
Germany is pushing for renewable and has not transitioned to it.
It is depending on Russia for 30% or so in gas. It has this problem because the transition is not done and Fukushima pushed the faster end of nuclear power.
Which is understandable when you remember Tschernobyl and how dense populated Germany is.
I drive by isar nuclear power plant by train since I remember. While it looks interesting it's also frightening when you see how little real knowledge or excercise anyone had when Tschernobyl happened and when Fukushima happened.
The effort my big software company does on regards of requirements of releasing software, I would say yes.
Big companies like Nvidia have background checks, independent security teams etc.
Impossible? No. But easier and cheaper is still other means.
Is it realistic though?
Hacking into Nvidias corp network, infiltrating their git server, disabling security scans and then injecting a backdoor undetected in complex code?
In a process which is highly controlled due to it being a very central peace of software.
Very unrealistic.
It's easier to find or buy zero days in the wild for the same goal
I'm so long on hn now I get more the feeling that I'm seeing less and less really new things.
Doesn't mean it's bad it's just less interesting than it was 5 years ago.
Another startup idea from a person who just want to have a startup/unicorn.
Another hack.
Another blog article about security deep dive.
Another retro post of someone doing something like running win95 somewhere or doom running on a pregnancy test.
There are articles which I accept that I will read them but understood the basics very fast but I will not retain all those details because either you would need to learn them like you do with vocabulary or something else long lasting.
So I have to accept that it becomes casual reading
News basically.
That's just a very very weird though. Sry but no one just hacks into Nvidias driver dev department and injects complex code to cripple ml training.
It's just nothing someone can just do. And there is also nothing which will prevent Nvidia to debug the ml issue and revert the change.
It's part of history and not the only part of it.

You know idle games?
Like when you have level 1 unlocked and lvlq creates a lot of money and you are at the point to continue to buy more and more expensive upgrades for lvl 1 or to save up to start to invest in lvl2.
If the market can just do what it does with ice cars and in parallel work on ev I would totally agree. We could do much more with ice.
But we know that there is a huge necessary investment curve for ev. When is the right time to stop investing money time and brain time for ice and start putting it in EV?
I believe they are not independent.
Funny enough I think old companies are getting more frightened then ever afer Tesla, apple, Sony, Amazon are investing into ev development.
Independent of this, ice to ev transition takes already relatively long in Germany and similar countries. This will take even more time in countries with less GDP.
Do we have the time to wait?
It happened due to reasons independent of CO2.
Repeating this doesn't help the problem Germany is in right now. Independent of it Germany did push a lot into solar
