Replacement level for whom? To sustain the current population? Population growth? Status quo? Corporations?
Not sure any of these things are needed to be sustained at the levels we are currently at.
Someone please explain the detrimental repercussions of not having an equal to or greater than replacement level.
My education according to my student loans.
This is my first time hearing this saying as well being a yank and all. Anyways, I currently work for a company that had a meeting with biscuits (doughnuts) and pretty much everyone that showed up was let go. Those that by chance had something else to do, dodged the shady way to fire people. Legal issues insu no. Needless to say doughnuts are not common around here and when they do get brought in this event always gets brought up.
Leave it to corporate America to pervert something that is supposed to be nice.
You can already do this. There are plenty of vids that show you how and it’s pretty easy to get started. Expanding functionality to get it to act and respond how you want is a bit more challenging. But definitely doable.
This statement is so wrong. I have llama with llama2 dataset running decently on a 970 card. Is it super fast? No. Is it usable? Yes absolutely.
I mostly agree with your statement and we should be aware of both.
Probably not a well received opinion but the amount of China promoting drivel that goes on here in lemmy is astounding.
I have my lights set to turn on slightly before I am supposed to wake, turn off after I go to work, before I return from home, and after I go to bed. I’ve recently added mmwave sensors to turn them on and off based on my presence within a room. I can do all kinds of automations that I could do manually sure but if I don’t need to and can minimize the amount of excess energy waste then why wouldn’t I want a wirelessly controlled switch and or lights?
And yes most everyone can do this. Google Home Assistant and get lost in the rabbit hole.
A reasonable societies only recourse to a nutjob, gang member or not is to hold the person down and wait for the police to show up?
And your reference to “after the shooting” implies that the shooter just blasted a few people stopped and put his gun away and started playing cards or some shit. Not that the patrons that stopped the idiot could be the reason that “after the shooting” happened at all!? I will never understand the mindset of this bubble you live in.
When in doubt return it and replace. Peace of mind is worth the effort.
Yup the West is always playing chicken with the east.
When two people are playing chicken then it is normal when only one person is playing chicken that person is up to no good.
No.
Sand to wafers… Fortunately, there is no shortage of raw material. Silicon is the second most common element in the earth’s crust, comprising about 26% and exceeded only by oxygen at 49%. But silicon does not occur naturally in the pure form needed for electronic applications, for which it must contain less than one in a billion non-silicon atoms. The starting material really is sand. Not just any sand, but silica sand, specially quarried for this purpose and having concentrations of quartz (silicon dioxide) as high as 95%.
