zephyreksto Canada•Spavor blames fellow prisoner Kovrig for Chinese detention, alleges he was used for intelligence gathering1·1 year agoI mean, I’m not surprised. The two of them had the perfect jobs for being spies.

Most damaging PM since Harper.
zephyreksto Android@lemdro.id•Bloomberg: This Is How Huawei Shocked America With a Smartphone - YouTubeEnglish2·1 year agoI’m not sure why people are surprised? Intel pulled off 7nm without EUV. It’s just classic “China stupid, only American company can do that” bullshit.
zephyreksto Android@lemdro.id•Bloomberg: This Is How Huawei Shocked America With a Smartphone - YouTubeEnglish6·1 year agoAMD’s fabs became Global Foundries, who pulled out of the bleeding-edge node game once it became cost prohibitive to do so with 7nm.
zephyreksto Android@lemdro.id•Bloomberg: This Is How Huawei Shocked America With a Smartphone - YouTubeEnglish17·1 year agoIntel is still on 7nm. Samsung’s 5nm is basically 7nm+. The fact that SMIC can do 7nm without EUV is insanely impressive.
Intel took years and years of delays to achieve the same thing.

Investing is supposed to be a risky venture. This is the risk.
If the US continues to destabilize, we’re fucked anyway. Any aid we can provide to Ukraine is going to be us allocating funds to buy American weapons that we then ship off to Ukraine.
How about nationalize our O&G, airline, and telecom?

zephyreksto Canada•Liberal government set to miss 2030 emissions targets, says environment commissioner audit1·1 year agoNone of this solves the methane problem that has a disproportionate and untracked impact on Canada’s emissions.
Consider that 1.2% leakage means that natural gas is equally bad as coal over a 20 year period. Consider then that even the most optimistic estimates for leakage are higher than that. Might as well just burn coal.
zephyreksto Canada•Liberal government set to miss 2030 emissions targets, says environment commissioner audit1·1 year agoAnd a good chunk of Canadian emissions (about half) are due to O&G extraction and burning fossil fuels for transportation. It’s a simple problem to solve.
zephyreksto Canada•Liberal government set to miss 2030 emissions targets, says environment commissioner audit11·1 year agoThe West’s data is literally, demonstrably false to the point that it’s legitimately harmful to our climate goals. In the short-term, natural gas is indisputably worse than coal, maybe even 2-3x worse. Even in the long-term, natural gas is worse than coal when looking at observed methane leakage rates. The US’ emissions reductions are a fucking lie.
Meanwhile, China hasn’t exactly been hiding that they’re reliant on coal.
Yeah, you’re right about that, my bad.
I was thinking more in terms of the core tech teams - there’s a decent EA presence here as well.
zephyreksto Canada•Liberal government set to miss 2030 emissions targets, says environment commissioner audit21·1 year agoWell, I’ve already established you can’t take Western GHGe numbers at face value… What’s your point? Trust nobody and nothing?
Better to be a Black guy in China than a Black guy in the US.
