Every quantifiable science has some amount of math, but it's by definition applied math. I think this was more of a debate between applied and more abstract math.

Apple has all the money in the world to take this to court, I don't see why they'd accept a settlement. The discovery process alone could honestly destroy OpenAI by making investor…

My first week at a new job that forces me back into Windows (with WSL). I'm about ready to throw my machine out the window and follow after it. I understand that a lot of the perfo…

Marx wrote about the concept of alienation in the context of work, the process by which capitalism would destroy the emotional attachment between laborer and their output in the na…

This sucks

This is great

Stanislaw Lem, if you can handle something a little more poetic and less strictly hard sci-fi.

China is installing something like 500 GW of wind and solar per year now. Even if they're only able to build and otherwise access chips that have half the SoTA performance per watt…

That's not really true in any country these days.

True, but BFS was mainly done in-house. Source: my best friend and I worked on some parts of it.

Aside from merges that combine commits from many authors onto a production branch or release tag. I would personally not leave an agent to do that sort of work.

I'll never be as cool as them.

I would argue that it's the formerly presumed binary nature of sex/gender that made it a logical split for all sports. While marital arts and weightlifting tend to seperate by weig…

Wasn't aware Israel had declared war on the West Bank.

Please type things yourself. Or at least prompt your LLM of choice to sound less canned.

People need to be tried/court martialed for this.

Is this missing interceptors? My understanding is those probably dominate total costs at the moment, especially if you include the costs of allied Gulf State and Israeli intercepto…

I was hoping our eventual Skynet would at least be cool. Now we're just gonna have killer robots yelling slurs at us, talking about race realism and the downfall of the West.

Embedded, a mix of Linux (yocto), boot loaders (mostly C), some bare metal C/assembly. Have worked in aerospace for 6 years but am currently looking to hop over to another industry…

If China actually catches up and surpasses the West/TSMC in fab technology and production, I think they'd have a better option, which is simply flooding the world market with high-…

Blind people tend to have less spatial intelligence though, like significantly more. Not very nice to say like that, and of course they often develop heightened intelligence in oth…

Because we live in a society, and all of us suffer if the average worker and citizen falls significantly in their competence and understanding of the world.

A federal guarantee of debt is a subsidy, one with horrendous potential downside. A CEO really shouldn't be so flippant, though I think he knows what he's saying.

28kW of dissipation is pretty solid, though obviously is irrelevant during a short burst with hundreds of watts of heat generated. I guess the frame itself act as the fallback heat…
