The article is okay, but the writing is bad chatgpt. Em-dashes in almost every sentence instead of commas. Out of place analogies and metaphors which barely make sense. Randomly sp…

It's just the the pacific ring of fire https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ring_of_Fire

Pretty sure this is just vectorization. You can pack some 8bit ints into a machine-length 32bit int and add them together, that is vectorization.

Can you back that up with anything? I’ve gotten this as a vague sense, but it seems hard to find much actual background about how he manages to continuously fail upward.

I don’t see how the distinction makes any sense when the Verus project you linked requires you to write correctness specs. It sounded like intrinsic techniques were preferred becau…

I wonder if there's another reason for Sam brokering deals with lots of major news outlet. Surely OpenAI won't try to exert any type of editorial control over these publications. T…

The workload they have is already optimized for something like an Nvidia GPU.

AMD will succeed at this as long as they keep it together.

This is not going to age well. The current round of AI accelerators are going to flop hard because there is a deep hardware software mismatch. All the accelerators target GEMM and …

This is a PR piece for Casey Newton‘s substack.

So basically the balancing point at which CO2-based heating stops is bounded by this 155K number, which I’m assuming relates to something really hot and bad on the surface. This me…

This makes sense and gives me some things to learn about, I really appreciate it. If climate science is correct, the one hole I still see is that it doesn’t take into account futur…

> you can surely list reputable studies Dude neither of us have ever read a scientific study about climate change. We are both going on bullshit we read online and related to exper…

> Who recommends turning off capitalism The article is about degrowth. The paperclip thought experiment is a stupid thought experiment. An AI that had the executive functioning to …

> That time is now We diverge on this point and I talked about it in other comments. > we should decrease our current CO2 usage as much as we can, even at a small price of personal…

I’m sorry man but based on the stuff I’ve worked on and the situations I’ve seen, it just seems more plausible to me that the scientific enterprise tasked with scaring the shit out…

I agree with some of your points about excesses of American lifestyle (where I live), but there is another side to this. A pretty good proxy for wealth is basically how much stuff …

> I would suggest that we can do better by not going there The problem is that you are recommending we turn off capitalism, which will have serious consequences that are easier to …

I agree with your last statement, although it is describing a very simple interaction and I don’t feel certain that we are observing that in action yet. I also don’t know if there …

Your entire framing of the world is engineered by pessimistic news articles which only tell a small part of the story. Is loss of biodiversity bad? Maybe. Will we have resurrected …

Do you even know how many years “an earth’s worth of biomass” could power our civilization? What if it’s like 1,000 years? I think you are just doomposting.

What if you actually can’t predict the future and climate change is actually good? What if having kids is actually a great thing for them and for the world? These are reasonable id…

I am getting sick of seeing the same edgy fatalistic comments every time a climate article is posted. If you are really such a master of the universe that you can predict the futur…

That story is about a fake-cancellation that Charlie created with his friends against himself. It is some kind of commentary on this very situation of you trying to get this taken …
