    That's not a good point though, a lot of countries, including the EU, also subsidize fossil fuels. Solar is cheaper, but requires more room and time to spin up (think datacenters, …

    Panels absolutely, their price is more and more dominated by installation costs. You can probably use automation to bring that down as well, especially for large-scale installation…

    This can be out of your control. Your health insurance will ask why that camel hit you, and might sue the bus operator for their damages for letting you out where they should not.

    They don't have access to EUV machines from ASML though.

    I never understood why visited websites and all their first and third party cookies are not isolated by default in browsers. There are so few sites where I really need cross-site l…

    The supply chain both in parts for their machines, but also in terms of research and technology for new machines is very deep and very international. If the US states that a techno…

    The good thing about math is that you can formally verify the results, making hallucinations much less scary. This is similar to games, where large learning models had some of thei…

    It's one of those "imagine a frictionless, perfectly spherical pig in a vacuum" theories that don't survive contact with reality. Buyers don't just pop up on timestamp zero and rem…

    Can it in some way do some action based on the talk? For example, can it summarize the brainstorming into a text file, post it somewhere etc.?

    Essentially part of a machine vision software package, which in turn is computer vision specialized for factory automation. It's "industrial" because it was trained on such data (m…

    Mostly the second point. They already collect and track you, even with car play. I strongly recommend this CCC talk, where they hacked a Volkswagen database that contained unfilter…

    It is like questioning the purpose of shovels, because surely if shovels generate so much wealth for the miners, wouldn‘t shovel companies ask for a percentage of the gold (say 30%…

    The risk is that this does not scale, they run out of money, the robot won't work any more, and you payed a lot for nothing.

    Is there a zero-retention option?

    No, we get an egg (i.e. the part usually provided by the female), which must then be fertilized by sperm. I don't know enough to say if that allows extracting eggs from males. Coul…

    Bridges deteriorate by default. That is a well understood process with well understood reasons, which we monitor and work against. Salt, thermal cycles, load, rust. Humanity does n…

    The thing is we tried that for decades, using more formal logic to build reasoning engines. And we never got it to be even a fraction as good and generic as learning-based LLMs are…

    This interpretation also generalizes nicely to 3d. You have 60 moves, 20 of which will be up (60 choose 20), then 20 are east (40 choose 20), then 20 are south (20 choose 20).

    This is called metamerism. It can be a practical issue if two pigments have the same color under one light source, but a different one under another. You want your artificial teeth…

    Overly specific and not more than feel-good blurb. “When you’re recording” - what if they record it for, say, debugging purposes? Are images send into the cloud even if that light …

    There is a static branch predictor that is used if there is no statistic on a branching instruction yet, and it's really simple: Jumps backward are assumed to be taken (they usuall…
