it's an open budget

what would you cut?
we don't have an income tax. gas tax is falling in revenues, till roads are also dwindling

billionaires and corporations are taking advantage of the washington taxpayers

Washington state where conservatives vote down new taxes for jails and homeless shelters only to see criminals released due to lack of space and homeless people are everywhere.

They vote against themselves

and MAGA is proud of it

if they don't identify themselves ... they are legitimate targets to fuck with.

They are no different than gang members dressing up like ICE, kidnapping people, taking them back to their homes and robbing them blind as they tell the neighbors they are terrorists

who's going to stop them ?

Americans are championing weakness and fragility now.
The entire idea of "We The People" has been hijacked by the "Me First" mentality

unfortunately MAGA loves the swamp they are building

fusion has been solved by regular simulations and cpus.

the Genome has been decoded and protein folding is also crowd sourced and many others

What you're advocating for should wait until energy prices are down and it doesn't cause pollution, like fusion.

if that was the case it would be a one time use.

Then what?

is it? an entire datacenter ? by whom ?

dedicated to a particular problem ... so many of them.

the math still isn't math'in

Latest datacenters (AI Giga Factories) will have half a million to a million of these chips installed.

10 million gallons of gasoline (or 500,000 cuft natural gas) per datacenter, per week?

Which part of this makes any rational sense?

Now that is raw electrical input, and the best CCGT power plants are about 50% efficient after generation and transmission losses.

So this 600W IC needs 17,520 kWh of fossil fuels a year.

That is approx 10 US gallons of gasoline a week, just to keep this IC powered up and cooled.
