The same demographic is against building new power plants, especially in their vicinity. There could have been abundant power if Nixon‘s plan to build out nuclear had been allowed …

This does not bode well for American prosperity. This is going the way of Europe, complacent and non-competitive. The future belongs to China.

Its not even true. Paradoxically they lower power bills.

AI infra buildup is so massive that the frontier labs should be able to offer more than one level of context length to incentivize token thriftiness. One would think compute-constr…

It would still be nice to mark them.

I did not expect anything else. The proposal J with the birds has some charm, but doesn’t work as a whole.

That makes one wonder, why is there only an option for globally ordered NOTIFYs? I would expect to have a little more tuning knobs available: - explicitly unordered - ordered per t…
