Usama Arif found that with the three patches to just probe BMI2 CPU support only once, it yield a 71% reduction in decompression time and a 18% reduction in compression time for a crypto_acomp benchmark.

Wow

It's not really the wattage that's an issue.
If it ran at 600 volts, it would only be 1 amp.

But at 12v, it's 50 amps of current.
Which is a lot.
And it's not massively peaky/bursty, so it needs to withstand that constantly.
Pretty sure something like 10-15mm² cross section of copper is needed for that, which is a thick cable.

But, this is also a problem that has been solved elsewhere. For whatever reason, manufacturers have settled in a terrible solution.

Both can be true. Both should be true

I don't think people care about it, but it seems to trigger some subconscious "I'm too close" and they drop back a bit.

I guess if someone is actually being an asshole aggressive tailgater then they won't care

The best method is to spray your windshield.
Some of it gets swept with the wind into their windshield, and they have to wipe/clean theirs.

I don't think that's ever failed to get someone to back off.

I was surprised to read that, because I'm sure we eradicated salmonella in eggs decades ago.

But it's being traced to imported eggs.

Yo, check out this cool website I made: http://localhost:3000/

Electrical engineering is just layer 1 on the OSI model.

Or someone in the party mentioned it to a server when they went to the bathroom as a surprise "can you do a special dessert for the person in the wheelchair, it's their birthday".
So the server just added it to the order without knowing where the person was actually seated at the table.

What if companies lobbied and depositioned that oil consumption wasn't bad, greenhouse gasses don't matter, and that climate change wasn't real? All while having evidence to the contrary.

Like, a company does a thing. Turns out it was a bad thing, but - as an industry - lied under oath and paid money to have it all swept under the rug.
That's pretty damn bad.

AI companies seem to be marketing their thing as a bad thing, idiots drink the coolaid and make it a bad thing.

I think we are early enough in the adoption cycle before it becomes incumbent.
Whereas oil adoption was a miracle liquid/gas that absolutely moved humanity forward at the expense of the planet.
AI replaces humanity at the expense of the planet.
