You obviously have full trust of Google and Microsoft accounts. You should take a visit or research of dark web. So many never ever get reported to haveibeenpwned.com. And if you are lucky to know some white hacks, they will be laughing at the idea of subscription software more secure. I worked in these kind of industry. Sometime we just swapped out libraries with zero bug fixes or even introduced obvious faults to justify updates. And many time we purposely blocked updates so can justify "upgrades", which is like subscriptions on top of subscriptions with maybe some kind of microtransactions disguised as optional addons. They are full of security exploits. We hope they are discovered to allow another round of updates and upgrades.

It has to do with how America politically structured. The trade nego change every 1-2 terms. China is much more consistent in this, and will scrap all markets from America in the long term. I simply dont see America able to force a Plaza Accord out of this. Japan fizzled because of that. But China wont. And China now backed by Russia, world powerhouse of fossil and minerals. Russia has way more natural reserve than what Venezuela America and Middle East officially published.

The ironic, a democracy (or more like republic representation) democratised wanton abuse throughout whole country. And we demonized any countries not following our system even when their result is way better. We invent and paid for fake news to demonized them too. If you as citizen dont like it, you cant even vote against it as referendum bot allowed and voted rep no listen to you. They listen to the super rich that didnt vote for them, but paid their needs. Your only recourse is to sue or fight all the way to SCOTUS pretty much on your own effort and resources. And we all call this as the greatest nation on earth. Maybe what Nixon said is the precedence of lawful guidance, when he did it, is ok. Flock is just a symptom that we approved implicitly via doing anything but just grumble. We deserve this utopia. Nothing to see. Move on.

Most likely the build up of those beta amyloid is faster than what the brain can clear by itself. The drainage likely just reduced the amyloid significant enough for the brain to recover. This is likely more of physics explanation than biological. It is similar cleaning the wound by itself has spectacular effect for recovery than you leave it cluttered with dirt and pus.

Chinese already start making DUV which can do the lower end 7nm. They are winning. Once that 7nm and up market cornered by Chinese, AMD Intel and TSMC and Samsung will have to burn thru bleeding edge depreciation faster perhaps from 7yr down to just 18mths. The CPU they generated will be incredibly expensive. Meanwhile Chinese just keep minting the AI cheaply and more efficiently and inching upwards towards 1.4nm.

There is this thing called payback. Chinese has a history of ultimate payback. The infamous very first one written down was eunuch Zhao Gao wiped clean entire Qin clan of Qin dynasty. WIPE CLEAN. When Deng met up with Thatcher, he gave her ultimatum to cede or army will march in that afternoon. That was just right after She won the Falkland war. USA will get Chinese payback. The only way to stop this is to invoke friend and savior role. Unfortunately, USA is playing the ultimate sore loser card with a generous dose of bullying. Be worry. Be very worry.

The biggest missing piece is China. Assuming actual delivered price is not subsidized by Western countries, you need to put in what if China demands that reflect the current price. Chinese in reality don't consume that much oil as what we thot they do from the oil purchases in the past. I assume Chinese just ramp down the purchase even though their consumption is well below that. Plus the hidden supplies from Iran and Russia to China via land route.

He promised a lot. Really a lot. I doubt it will happen. Still waiting the SolarCity, Gigabattery, 4680, and CyberTruck he promised. Instead I get solar burst. CATL, CATL, recalled and finger cutting. And let's not talk about AutoPilot FSD. Waymo is way ahead NOW. Mars? I double down my invest in Shanghai exchange now.

AI is a glorified calculator in this case. It frees up human to do other things. It shouldn't be viewed as human replacer.

I have been to China for years. I can guarantee you this wouldn't happen in China. You have to have violence initiated to get arrested there. And yes, they do have limited protest (though not for LGBTQ reasons). Sounds very much America is the real CCP. The myth of freedom of speech. Myth.The land of the brave and free is for the super rich. The rest aren't any better than China.

I gave up on Grok. It is going the way of Tesla, SolarCity, gigabattery and Autopilot. Now on GLM5.2 via Open router hosted in SG. Mimo is also good. Their agent is so convenient and Deepseek level cheap. Quality a bit behind GLM5.2. But then Mythos is myth, technically GLM is high up there in quality but on lower end pricing.

Maybe this is just one of the AI firing? It just happen OP did something before the firing announced and put that and firing together. This would explain why others also let go and the repo still there.

Singapore system won't work in USA cities. Their town councils are near scholars level. Quite a few of them doctorate. They are pretty much selected on 2 criteria, merit and perceived likability with accountabilities evaluated both by government and locals citizens. American leaders are selected based on sound bites with zero accountability to citizens for maybe 2 years to 4 years. They do accountable to mega donors which almost always work against for the good of the public. Singapore also have world class city planners that entire America have never experienced or seen before. Heck even China look up to Singapore during 80s and 90s for advice. And the quality of people going to USA in the last 10 years are very low. Look at Singapore Amos going there. Meanwhile hundreds of American engineers migrated to Russia and China.
