Government and Technology - What Could Go Wrong?

From Pixy Misa at Ambient Irony we get this delicious bit of your tax dollars working to make the world an insane place. Daily News Stuff 4 April 2024: Let A Hundred Thousand Mintomos Bloom Edition

If you comply with the rules, we'll change the rules: The US Commerce Department has banned Nvidia's RTX 4090D from sale in China. (Tom's Hardware)

The 4090D was designed specifically to comply with the ruling that banned the 4090.

A little too specifically, perhaps. But maybe Commerce Secretary Gina Raimondo should post the rules she wants companies to actually follow rather than expecting them to play some psychotic game of red light green light.

Hey, you can't expect a bureaucrat in the business of regulating technology to understand technology. Can you?
