Minor nitpick:

The energy (electricity) they use to smelt aluminium mainly comes from hydropower, around 70% of it. The geothermal boreholes are mainly used for district heating, which is quite a big energy drain in Iceland. And that means that geothermal is the source of around 65% of the energy used in Iceland.


I've personally found sequence diagrams to be immensely valuable the handful of times I've worked with them. Both for documenting the intended way to use an API and for analyzing the ways the different components of a system can interact. This has often helped me escape my tendency to focus on the happy path when analyzing systems.


Hard disagree. The difference between "good" and "bad" billionaires is in how the operate the entities they control. No matter how much money Bill Gates gives to charity, he should mainly be judged based how Microsoft acted while he were in control. Similarly, Gabe Newell is a much "better" billionaire than Mark Zuckerberg or Jeff Bezos.


Yes, the paper and magphys talks about rotation, not transmission.


ST Microelectronics makes 18 nm chips and 6 out of their 7 fabs are in Europe: https://www.st.com/content/st_com/en/about/manufacturing-at-...


The further down the value chain you go, the simpler it is going to be to find alternative suppliers. Or alternative inputs. And figuring out which alternative inputs make sense in your situation is probably much easier if you're the ones integrating the different components. And if you are committed to building X ships a year for strategic reasons, chances are a local company will end up a globally competitive supplier by grabbing the opportunity right in front of them.


Yeah, just increasing the font size of the section headers 4 pts and the lines with the job titles 2 pts would do wonders. Maybe also put the locations in italic and decrease the line spacing around the location lines.

But even with the current resume I'd still call this guy in for an interview if I were hiring for an ML position.


10% is not a lot. Remember that the share price has gone up more than 50% in the past year. Assuming he wants to keep NVIDIA at a fixed percentage of his net worth, he would have to sell up to 33% of his shares (depending on the target percentage). Even after selling the dollar value of his remaining NVIDIA shares is still up $6 billion from a year ago ($8 billion to $14 billion).


Exactly this. Here in Denmark, 48k plug-in hybrids were sold in 2020, falling to 4k in 2025. The same numbers for fully electric cars were 38k in 2020 and 144k in 2025. Once the public charging infrastructure was here, the change was dramatic. I bought my first electric car this year and I haven't had trouble finding a public AC charger when I needed to, which is often since I live in a condo.
