Does anyone have the data on the total number of data centers that were being built over time? I'm not convinced that AI is causing that many more data centers to be built. From everything I've read, is just that they're putting more GPUs into them.

Google search: "scientific articles about (whatever)" Then you get tons of ads and irrelevant results.
LLM search: "Find me scientific articles about (whatever)" Then you get just the titles and links (with maybe a short summary).
It's 100% better and you don't have to worry about hallucinations since you it's wasn't actually trying to find an answer... Just helping you perform a search.
Absolutely terrible, but eventually we'll get to SUPER ULTRA WICKED MEGA MAGA.
The beatings will continue until morale improves.
Ugh, CNN:
These cases have unfolded as the Trump administration has abandoned the “humane enforcement” of immigration laws when deporting mothers and fathers who entered the country illegally
No, they probably entered the country legally but then overstayed their visa. Just like the majority of undocumented immigrants. FFS. What kind of weird narrative line are they trying not to cross?
No, actually! There's no metadata option in .WebM to tell it to loop! It's not in the spec (which is just a subset of matroska).
The format literally does not support looping. Whereas the .WebP spec does provide a looping option:
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/rfc9649/
It's in the ANIM chunk which specifies the "loop count". If it's zero, loop forever.
WebM has no built-in loop flag 🤷
If that's all we hear - is that the end? Not thimerosal. Not aluminum. Not MMR. Not Hep B.
Correct! It's not caused by any of those things. Just like it's not caused by:
- "Refrigerator mothers"
- Not enough hugs
- Trauma during childbirth
- Being raised in an orphanage
- Sugar
- Food dyes and preservatives
- HFCS
- Eating too much fast food
- WiFi or 5G
- Humors
- Fluoridated water
- "Chemtrails"
- Living near power lines
So on and so forth. Maybe—just maybe—there's no universal cause and it's just something that can happen.
Can there be things that increase the likelihood of an autistic child forming in a mother's womb? Surely! But that's the kind of thing that relies on statistics. Ya know, that thing you obviously don't trust because you never let go of the "vaccines cause autism" bullshit.
I have no doubt that after many, many decades of research—and maybe with the help of some big data/AI—we can figure out what sorts of things actually increase the likelihood of autism. It'll be probably something like: If you have these three genes and your partner has these other three genes then you should avoid eating venison while also consuming saccharine.
Maybe we'll get something better than that but if my experience with big data are any guide, the correlations are going to be wild and crazy like that... And they won't really give you "an answer", just places where a scientific investigation might be warranted.
I really like WebP. It has a super annoying issue though: Animated WebP can't take advantage of hardware acceleration.
And the real problem there is that WebM doesn't support looping. So if you want an auto playing, looping gif-like video you have to use WebP and thus, give up on hardware acceleration.
It'll be 90% complete and just end there with a simple statement:
