My wife's hometown in China used to have two options to reach from Shanghai - high speed rail (top speed ~ 200MPH) that takes about six hours or a roughly one hour flight. Rail tra…

Enrique Tarrio got 22 years and he wasn’t even there.

I don’t think you’ve been near a data center if you think noise pollution is a problem.

I’m a voter who prefers we establish rules that be followed rather than encumber every project with a lengthy community dialogue.

No mention of CAFE standards? How can you write this article without mentioning the policy that incentivizes larger vehicles?

What a brave new world where only machines possess general intelligence.

It could be the case that we’ve reached the last generation of frontier models that can be accessed by the general public. That eliminates a risk that Anthropic could be leapfrogge…

I lean libertarian but I can recognize the danger in having access to a machine that can craft pathogens to spec. A pathogen with a very long incubation time and a high fatality ra…

I use my Gen 1 Tesla Wall Connectors to charge my NACS-native Lucid Gravity.

I had forgotten how much time I spent with this software until I saw the screenshot. Thanks for the port!

I realized that should I end up getting laid off soon I won't have an unlimited token budget and for the workflows I've settled into it would be quite expensive. So I was exploring…

Long ago in Linux if you wanted to listen on a privileged port (< 1024) you had to do so as root.

I'm enjoying it. It's wild to realize that I spent countless hours playing Theme Park when I was around 10 years old, and Demis had been a big contributor to the game when he wasn'…

The insult to tictacs.

They can't just build Apollo 18 and resume the program as if there weren't a 50 year hiatus. Imagine if your employer wanted to start using a software system it retired in 1972. Wh…

Maine banning datacenter construction is is a bit like Texas banning lobster fishing.

It's very elegant. The first time we traveled domestically in China I kept thinking that my wife had to be mistaken, there has to be some kind of confirmation we need to show in or…

Jared could have reached out to Everyday Astronaut and probably gotten his crew to do it just for the shoutouts on the official stream.

Risk tolerance is a value judgment, not an empirical fact waiting to be discovered. Competent experts could tell you how much safer you would be if you wore a helmet to drive your …

I mean the design. They've changed the AVCOAT to be less permeable and altered the re-entry profile. One of the findings of Artemis I is that lack of permeability led to trapped ga…

It is a bit chilling to watch these astronaut profiles having just read yesterday about the heat shield issues observed on the prior mission, and that this will be the first time w…

My kids are going to be legally mandated to be in car seats until they’re about 12 years old.

They literally just have to subtract the vector for the source language and add the vector for the target. It’s the original use case for LLMs.

Why should implementation matter at all? You should be able to classify a black box as AGI or not. Well, I guess you lose artificial if there’s a human brain hidden in the box.

Oh you say you’ve got a panacea? Yeah, right. I really do have a panacea though.
