I thought they were totally just using flare gas and renewables ;) 🙄

But my understanding for real is that ai data centers are just the same hardware as buttcoin but more of it and organized. The venture capitalists finally got what they wanted, blowing their wad on Nvidia.

Maybe like everyone else that poster was confused what the actual fuck OP was on about

No, they arent dumb for not liking price increases. It’s the lack of understanding of cause and effect that makes them dumb, not liking or disliking an effect.

The reason that saying is relevant is because people are stupid. The president has to care about the economy but the reverse is almost never true

Of course as with many situations, trump is the exception to the rule: because congress isn’t doing its job and is allowing trump to randomly increase costs by 100% then 50% then 200% then 100% over the course of a single summer, he has had an outsized impact on the economy in a way that no other president has had for generations. And he managed to do it twice, the first time bungling covid so badly that he contributed heavily to the massive inflation we’ve experienced since he was last in office.

The economy grows on stability, not random acts of chaos, violence, and retribution.

Nah people are terrible . Have you seen lemmy?

Isnt this essentially the case by definition? If LLMs can solve a problem it’s only because a human already solved that problem (not that this is any different from what humans do)

Ah but they aren’t his resources

All of these problems are caused by a remarkably small network of people. I’m not even necessarily talking about the CEOs. It’s the boards of directors. This is also the pool from which CEOs are drawn one and the pool to which CEOs return after their golden parachute. They function as a living repository of evil. A warehouse of criminals and nepo-babies. (Ex: Airbnb guy joined DOGE and is on teslas board. So first he destroys the housing market for a generation, and then destroys the government, and he is the person who directs Tesla.)

Like, the network is so small it could fit in one big room.

Yes but data center growth prior to AI was manageable. There isn’t a grid on the planet (except maybe china?) which can support the growth of AI data centers.

These people have to plan energy needs on a 10-20 year life cycle, not 2. It’s the 2 that’s the problem.

Ah, yes, there are also the terminally dumb and uneducated. But those people are just weaponized votes. They don’t appear to have their own thoughts or agency, just mindless drones following whatever their one podcast or one cable network or their one YouTube guy tells them to do.

But no, there’s also plenty of videos of random magas in various formats, and a driving factor for those people appears to be hate (with a healthy mix of not understanding the concept of cause and effect)

If that’s the takeaway you want rather than “standard business practice is to vet organizations you support to make sure your goals are aligned”…uh…good for you?

If you tell me “I will use some of any money you give me to fund terrorism” and I choose to give you money anyway, I am deliberately funding terrorism.

Framework is deliberately funding white nationalists. They may not have been before yesterday, but now they’ve been told and now they’ve been told that’s what they’re doing.

Tbh I’m not sure what you’re saying here. Person said they had to scroll down 5 results to get to the asshole being an asshole and seemed to think that was proof it’s hard to research (hence my “five whole links”) and then you seemed to be saying that since it’s “hard to find” and the business isn’t slapping a nazi flag front and center on their website means it’s fine to use their stuff. If that’s not what you meant, great. But you said the same thing again, so I’m pretty sure you meant it.

I dunno I’ve watched enough of the maga people talk to be pretty confident they just hate the world.

The “this guy will shake things up” argument would make sense if he hadn’t already been our single most corrupt president in a generation (until 47)

Yeah I figured it out from another message: intent matters. Framework appears to intend to support bad people. Tankies support bad causes but appear to think they are good. That moves the question to “what is good”. Obviously white nationalists have a definition of good that I don’t agree with but they think they are doing good or at least claim as such. However I think I generally agree with tankies, broadly, on their definition of good. I just think they are self deluded into believing that the world simply isn’t as simple and awful as it appears to be. That having been said, my reference point for tankies is a few memes, so it may be that there’s depths of evil there that I’m not aware of. However what I’ve seen is that they seem to be pro workers rights, anti capitalist power, etc…all of which I broadly agree with.

If I send you a dollar and you send 50c to white nationalists and then you tell me that and I give you another dollar, now I am funding white nationalists. This isn’t complex. Knowledge+action = result.

What a bizarre take on my message. Re-read what I wrote, and then read what you wrote, and maybe revise some of your assumptions about what I wrote.

Have you…never had a job? I’m really really confused by your aggro response. This is standard operating procedure for any company with more than like 15 people (or with any large assets they can be sued over). I regularly get quotes delayed due to companies having to get their own quotes for their own off the shelf hardware through legal approval.

Correct, we are raised from birth on the opinions of our family, society, etc. I don’t know anyone raised in isolation.

I already answered that: your question is trying to move the goalposts away from what framework is doing.

I think the rest of your response feels wrong in a fundamental way but I haven’t thought through why yet.

Voting can absolutely be a hateful act, I literally can’t imagine what happens in your brain that makes you think otherwise. The entire US 2024 election was hate vs not-the-hate-guy. A vengeance fantasy for middle aged white men.
