  • Tell them of a famous guy, the most “woke” person in the entire bible, a socialist & convicted-felon people call “Jesus” benJoseph, who called hypocrites “Hypocrites!” right in their face, instead of “turning the other cheek”, a guy who got *physically violent" on the commercial-operation of the temple…

    See if they just blot that out from their awareness, to fit their ideology…

    Kahneman’s “Thinking Fast And Slow” is the key book to understanding the different mechanisms of mind, in the ideology/prejudice/instinct/reaction circuit, vs the considered-reasoning-circuit, in case you want the real “artillery” of understanding what’s going on in the world, now…

  • Computational-Fluid-Dynamics simulations are RAM-limited, iirc.

    I’m presuming many AI models are, too, since some of them require stupendous amounts of RAM, which no non-server machine would have.

    “diminishing returns” is what Intel’s “beloved” Celeron garbage was pushing.

    When I ran Memtest86+ ( or the other version, don’t remember ), & saw how insanely slow RAM was, compared with L2 or L3 cache, & then discovered how incredible the machine-upgrade going from SATA to NVMe was…

    Get the fastest NVMe & RAM you can: it puts your CPU where it should have been, all along, and that difference between a “normal” build vs an effective build is the misframing the whole industry has been establishing, for decades.

  • I have found MediaBiasFactCheck to be … not entirely trustworthy.

    Same with Snopes.

    the comment about the UN being more-trustworthy in terms of framing is dead-on.

    the ICC issued a warrant for Netanyahu’s arrest, not because of a blog-post, or because of mere-opinion, but because of an ocean-of-evidence sufficient to justify a warrant for a man’s arrest.

    You apparently discount that, as do many, & hold that websites are more-valid than the ICC’s determination.

    Good for you.

    The ICC’s right, in this case, in my opinion, & the opinion of many others.
