"It is impossible for a cube to be a sum of two cubes, a fourth power to be a sum of two fourth powers, or in general for any number that is a power greater than the second to be the sum of two like powers. I have discovered a truly remarkable proof, but this margin is too small to contain it."

So just like Musk, you're pro-censorship of views you don't like but give free passes to those who's views you approve of?

The US has been continuously running a budget deficit for decades (brief blip at the end of Clinton/beginning of W Bush). This is more of an "epoch" than "era". I love the idea of incentives that aren't tax breaks!

Is there even an American domestic GPU manufacturer? I can't imagine it's an easy, or quick thing, to build out a factory capable of churning out 5090s, so the best bet would be someone capable of expanding quickly.
Re:CDC Clone Site Hosted by Group Previously Led by HHS Secretary
on Sunday March 23, 2025 @06:43PM (#43456494)
The Internet Archive currently does "host a clone of the CDC site as it existed before Trump took office". Everyone on IA knows, or could find out very easily, that they are viewing of an older version of the site.
The NGO group publishing this website seems to be intentionally misrepresenting the site as the actual CDC. They have altered the information contained on the page to push a specific message that is not backed up by science as understood by the CDC, whose website they are impersonating. The page is designed in such a way to ensure you do NOT know you are not viewing the current CDC.
As this is HN, I'm going to interpret your message in the best possible light. I need to ask a clarifying question:
Does this really seem like a slippery slope to you? Taking down a website designed to impersonate another entity and misrepresent their beliefs will lead to the tyranny taking down the Internet Archive?
