    Isn't this tool directly violating NVIDIA license terms? I thought they disallow running CUDA on non-NVIDIA hardware. Or is it just because there's no money for NVIDIA in suing poo…

    Everyone seems to miss it but the article also says that M5 Ultra Mac Studio is coming out later this year. Yay! I wonder how much the rumored 768GB RAM version will cost.

    Taller players do great in soccer, to a point. I mean, goalkeepers are the tallest, typically, about 6'4, 6'5. For field players, they usually max out around 6'3, but that's only f…

    Well, nfl/nba are focused on big guys, 6’3 and above. In soccer your height/mass doesn’t matter much so the talent pools don’t overlap. And baseball is the old man’s game that does…

    Well, I can give you Russian oligarchs - they came to their wealth during time of chaos, and mostly through stealing. But Texan oil billionaires? They won their wealth fair and squ…

    Yes, and the contributions from those parents were so valuable that the society still owes them, even long after their death. That's why we pay our dues to their children and grand…

    Airplane cost to operate is fuel consumption, and, by the laws of physic, aerodynamic resistance scales as a square of speed, so you can’t really work around it unless you invent s…

    Building supersonic passenger planes was never a technical problem (see Concorde), the problem is: they are too expensive to operate to be profitable. I bet this thing will never s…

    I actually owned quite a bit of Intel stock bought at $19, but was forced to sell it. Then I bough some for $45 last year, and sold couple weeks ago for $60, just a day or two befo…
