The Environmental Impact of AI: What Does It Take to Write an Email with ChatGPT? As AI becomes more integrated into our daily lives, understanding its environmental impact is crucial. According to estimates reported by The Washington Post, generating an email using AI tools like ChatGPT requires about as much water as a single-use plastic bottle holds, and the energy consumption is equivalent to running 14 LED light bulbs for an hour. These figures shed light on the significant resources needed to operate data centers that power AI systems. As AI continues to evolve, addressing its environmental footprint will be essential for sustainable innovation. *#AIImpact#Sustainability#DataCenters#AIEthics
静态网站悖论 个人网站的两种不同实现方式:一种是复杂的内容管理系统(CMS),另一种是简单的静态 HTML 文件。文章指出,尽管大多数普通用户倾向于使用复杂的解决方案(如 WordPress),但实际上,只有少数专业软件工程师能够选择更简单的静态网站。 via HackerNews 2024 10 09 前两天刚好听朋友说 square space 已经涨到了近乎搞笑的 $25 月费,做不用来盈利的个人博客实在难以 justify。这篇文章中吐槽得很在点子上: normal users are stuck with a bunch of greedy clowns that make them pay for every little thing, all while wasting ungodly amounts of computational power to render what could have been a static website in 99% of cases. 普通用户被困在了一群屁大点功能都要收费的贪婪小丑手里,与此同时浪费着人神共愤额度的算力来渲染 99% 的情况下都可以作为静态的网站。 当然原文中说的“只有少数专业软件工程师才能选择更简单的静态网站”略微夸张并不认同,因为静态站至少是比 self-host 的动态 CMS 少太多维护了。我的 backlog 里也一直躺了篇安利新手用静态站并拉踩 WP 的文,不过网上这种文已经有无数了也还是拦不住前赴后继往各种 CMS 的坑里冲的新手,觉得写了又有什么意义呢就还搁着没写。(当然迟早会像以前反复造的无数轮子一样被废话欲战胜的 but not today) #indieblog#newletter

🚀 Carson Block Warns of Potential U.S. Stock Market Turbulence Carson Block, founder of Muddy Waters and a globally recognized short seller, has issued a stark warning about the U.S. stock market. According to Jin10, Block suggests that the market could experience volatility surpassing that of the 2008 financial crisis. He attributes this potential upheaval to the disruptive impact of AI technologies on the market. Block advises short sellers to prepare for opportunities, indicating that betting against the U.S. stock market might be favorable in the current environment. #CarsonBlock#USStockMarket#StockMarketTurbulence#AIImpact#ShortSelling#FinancialCrisis#Volatility#MarketWarning#MuddyWaters#ShortSellers#MarketOpportunities

🚀 Global Economic Concerns Amid Middle East Tensions According to Jin10, a report by China International Capital Corporation (CICC) highlights that since March, concerns over conflicts involving the U.S., Israel, and Iran, along with potential blockages in the Strait of Hormuz, have triggered a market-wide risk aversion. This has led to declines in most asset classes, excluding oil and agricultural products, raising fears of stagflation. CICC acknowledges the undeniable impact of supply shocks, which could potentially slow overall economic growth. However, if the Strait of Hormuz gradually reopens, the geopolitical risks might exacerbate the K-shaped economic divergence, leading to increased investment activity while cooling consumption and employment. In the context of accelerated AI substitution and an inherently cooling labor market, inflation in resource and capital goods is unlikely to create a 'wage-inflation' spiral. From this perspective, CICC suggests that the mainstream narrative of global stagflation might be overstated. The report reiterates the view held since the beginning of the year that, amid an intensified K-shaped economy, liquidity recovery from its trough, and sustained fiscal expansion, the global nominal economic cycle driven by investment is expected to resume its upward trend. This will likely lead to continued rebalancing of global funds across sectors, asset classes, and regions, benefiting a range of physical assets and emerging markets. #GlobalEconomy#MiddleEastTensions#GeopoliticalRisk#Stagflation#SupplyShock#EconomicGrowth#KShapedRecovery#Investment#AIImpact#LaborMarket#Inflation#LiquidityRecovery#FiscalExpansion#EmergingMarkets#AssetAllocation
