Author doesn’t say ignore copyrights. He says ignore the “broad IP” clause in USMCA. Right to repair, right to have your own app store, right to enhance products you own.

Overall good points, but:

The most potent political lesson of the past four years is that politicians who preside over rising prices – regardless of their role in causing them – will swiftly feel the wrath of their voters. The public is furious about inflation, whether it comes from transient covid supply chain shocks, Russia’s invasion of Ukraine, or cartels using “inflation” as cover for illegal, collusive price-gouging.

GOP complaining about inflation and deficits is them finding something to complain about a strong economy. PP/canada conservatives complaining about carbon tax is supporting Ukrainian nazis while global diesel/home heating fuel refining was at maximum capacity. The Ukrainian support was common to all parties. They had to make up complaints.

Some other things Canada can do is export taxes on resources and energy. The US can’t replace Canada where it is needed in short term.

The big policy change is opening up FDI to China. Can put restrictions on natural resources to also invest in manufacturing using those resources, but treating the US as the only permissible option for investment is bad for Canadian companies and jobs. While Canadians are firmly programed in US foreign policy propaganda, if Trump/US adopts a “coercion until you accept being a territorial posession”, Canada needs to take a friendlier stance towards Russia, North Korea, China, and deprogram itself from US empire bs. It should continue advertising secession and provincehood to US states.

U.S. sponsored and sponsors many movements around the globe as long as their goals align. That money alone can’t invalidate the cause.

USSC declares money is speech. You not only agree, but go further that money is truth. Naziism and Islamist fascism is truth. Democracy, and political power, is much cheaper in smaller countries made less stable with US extortion and war. Navalny caught on video soliciting MI6 for funding to destabilize Russia. Hong Kong media mogul fomenting protests because of Americas values.

The US empire’s values are extortion, control, puppetry, and war whitewashed/described with a facade of liberal freedom. Every country is to be a pawn for the empire to the detriment of their population. The political establishment’s disdain for Americans provides no valid expectation for the empire to promote humanism elsewhere. Just propaganda.

Then when you get the power, then you get the women.”

Then when you get the power you tell the plebs to make more money. “This is America. If you don’t make more money (for me), you’re a douchebag”.

For the actual policy details not paywalled:

Nvidia:

“It makes no sense for the Biden White House to control everyday data center computers and technology already in gaming PCs worldwide, disguised as an anti-China move,” Finkle wrote. “The extreme ‘country cap’ policy will affect mainstream computers in countries around the world, doing nothing to promote national security but pushing the world to alternative technologies.”

the 50000 GPUs over 3 years per tier 2 country would seem to include consumer gamers from that country, perhaps buying older generation rtx30? gpus. 0 GPUs to China/others. Seems to make tier 2 worse than current China policies, while also “forcing Nvidia” to also only sell $2000 Blackwells in tier 2 countries.

Maybe a backdoor that is opened is to build all datacenters in Tier 1 countries, and then use the 25% allowance to expand to tier 2.

China’s “delete America” program is justified over this, and its not that far behind in single GPU performance, and ahead of rtx30. Just drivers and interconnection that need to catch up. Which doesn’t seem like an impossible task, especially in controlled hardware environments. National resources increasing/doubling for that goal is a likely response.

The whole national security justification and warmongering bent is troublesome. AI must serve war and US supremacy, and must be used against American people to ensure the supremacy.

ty. Comments are angry that this was posted, but it was worth reading.

The tldr of link to AI is that AI was useful in modeling proteins, and LLM predictivity has been used to predict DNA sequences. Fine, “closer” is clickbaity, but article gives overview of potential, and approaches focused on getting there.

US military will pay Open AI for this. More than $200/month. Of course this gets shut down.

Abundance is humanist economics. Accusations of dumping are too easy to make baselessly. A solution to accusations of overabundance is to make a government bought stockpile. A path to protecting domestic competitors is to let them resale from your stockpile.

China puts a 25% export charge on steel. Can’t call that dumping. Its ev solar battery competitive advantages, are largely the result of being a manufacturing nexus, and market for tooling and automation, and near the largest market for all goods. Largest companies in sector are generally profitable, which negates dumping accusation

It would be surprising if chips accusation are any more real than other baselessness.

10-20 years ago they were stealing tech most likely. They mostly innovate today, though legacy chips is a misnomer in that it refers to legacy fab tech good enough to make new chips for undemanding purposes.

You are saying tsmc agency is voluntarily blowing up all of taiwan assets?

All of our politicians are proud zionists, even if few are jews, or extreme evangelicals.

red one is not aweful if you are 8, or otherwise set it on a bar of Christmas movies.

I played the game of Clue a couple of times. That too is a murder simulator and “how to cover your tracks” game.

The biggest problem in America is the largest most profitable companies pay 21% instead of 15% corporate income tax, apparently. Meanwhile all peeps of no taxes on tips or SS have disappeared.

afaik, without a need for error correction a quantum computer with 256 bits could break an old 256 bit RSA key. RSA keys are made by taking 2 (x-1 bit) primes and multiplying them together. It is relatively simple algorithms to factor numbers that size on both classsical and quantum computers, However, the larger the number/bits, the more billions of billions of years it takes a classical computer to factor it. The limit for a quantum computer is how many “practical qubits” it has. OP’s article did not answer this, and so far no quantum computer has been able to solve factoring a number any faster than your phone can in under a half second.

108 qubits, but error correction duty for some of them?

What size RSA key can it factor “instantly”?

Current Parliamentary majority is more anti-war than President. President is in favour of free US stuff, but is not escalatory or hateful. The tolerance for colonial oversight over TSMC/Taiwan economy. That lasts until the US doesn’t buy as much stuff. The more recent US BS has moved polling to 71% favoring indifinitish status quo. 3.8% favoring independence is at historic low. ROC is Taiwan’s name for Taiwan, also FYI.

It is beyond belief how lemmy military empire bots could think that war with China will be good for Americans or their soldiers, and that they need to protect a narrative that Taiwanese would overjoice with the results. May I suggest that you confer with colleagues on overthrowing US government giving you these orders instead.

It’s biggoted to say the Taiwanese are insufficiently biggoted to be motivated to suicide?

I’m stating facts: https://focustaiwan.tw/cross-strait/202402230019

Seems hateful and biggoted to suggest Ukraine provides a great role model to change their minds. The empire subjugation level is so intense on Lemmy, it’s hard to comprehend. My post had plenty of content other than the obviousness that war is bad and not favoured in Taiwan, but mention that Ukraine is neither angelic, nor successfully supported by west, and all marbles are lost in apoplectic heresy, because your identity is wrapped into “prosperity depends on war on Russia and China”, as if you shouldn’t be prevented from voting.

AGI helps in fusion energy?

The wildest theoretical hopes for fusion energy still produces electricity at over 30c/kwh. Zero economic value in fusion.

The notion that AI will solve the climate crisis is unbelievably stupid, not because of any theory about what AI may or may not be capable of, but because we already know how to fix the climate crisis!

Its a political problem. Nationalizing the western oil companies to prevent them from lobbying, and to invest their profits in renewables, is a solution, but no party in the CIA Overton window would support it. If war and human suffering can be made a priority over human sustainability, then oil lobbyists will promote war.
