    Unfortunately, maintaining an opposite list would probably be easier.

    > AVX512 isn't available on most new CPUs Please define new. Also, I think AMD uses very similar cores in server and client. So, disabling AVX512 may be an Intel thing (my guess is…

    > if the virus and its DNA are undetectable then you can't spread it The devil may be in the details. E.g. if a COVID test shows negative, it doesn't mean that you can't spread it.…

    Out of curiosity: what is your input to the model? A CAD file or a drawing? I find it does a good job at isometric views from floor plans. However, I needed Gemini 3.1 Pro to be ab…

    Here is a repro using GCE's C4A Axion instances (c4A-highcpu-72). Seems to beat Graviton? Maybe the title of the thread can be updated to a larger number :) ? I used the largest in…

    I don't know the specifics of this case, but maybe the investigators just asked in case there was an accidental trigger, or a real trigger etc. Seems reasonable for the detective t…

    Also, for a lot of people working on hardware, the alternatives aren't great. Big Tech players like Apple, Meta, Amazon, etc. all have downsides. Startsups are extremely risky, and…

    Sure, and someone else can say otherwise. Comparing anecdotes doesn't provide a global view, IMO, and can lead to incorrect conclusions. Maybe better to look at data instead, e.g. …

    Interesting. On lmsys, Gemini is #1 for coding tasks. How does that compare? https://lmarena.ai/?leaderboard

    I think there should be a distinction here. E.g. if you work on a browser, possibly implementing parts of image loading, or javascript parser, etc. Are you consider a dogfooder if …

    Future can be 6 days from now or 6 centuries from now. This statement is useless without specific details.
