US-China AI war boils down to a contest over electricity

The proliferation of artificial intelligence models and the increasing parity in their performance suggest they are becoming a commodity. Soon, AI services will be priced by cost rather than the uniqueness of their model. With electricity the main cost of the services, the AI war between China and the United States is turning into a straightforward contest over electricity output and price. Open-source AI models are sprouting up like bamboo shoots in China. The American AI community has argued..

It's worth buying - that can't be right?

Hey Carbonara disciples, you have to steer me onto the right path again, I must have taken a wrong turn somewhere. I have been investing in the holy grail for several years and until yesterday I was firmly convinced that an apartment/house for personal use was not an investment, but a pure dream hobby. Now my partner and I are unexpectedly looking for a larger apartment earlier and are a bit surprised at the prices. My partner said: "Yes, you can buy it straight away

€305k in one taxable account, thinking about going part time. Am I actually there yet?

I'm in the EU(38M) so there's no 401k, no Roth, no IRA, not even a UK ISA. No tax sheltered retirement wrapper at all. It's all just a plain taxable brokerage at IBKR. Makes the math cleaner but also scarier, since nothing is locked away, it's one account I could nuke any day I lose my mind. My numbers (I'm single): Net worth: ~€305k VWCE (FTSE All-World, accumulating): €230k AGGH (global bonds): €40k P2P: ~€10k Cash buffer: €25k, about a year of expenses No property, I rent a 1 bed at ~€750/mo

Oil Price Surge Shows Markets Were Too Relaxed About Iran Deal

Wednesday’s jump in oil prices to a two-week high suggests that market participants were too complacent about the U.S.-Iran ‘deal to make a deal’ and that the ceasefire would hold and oil flows through the Strait of Hormuz would only increase, analysts at ING said on Thursday. Oil prices surged by over 5% on Wednesday, gaining 7% at one point to a two-week high, after the escalation in the region. The Iranian attacks on three commercial ships on Tuesday, including an oil tanker and an LNG carrie
