    Wouldn’t it be more economically and fiscally efficient to…pay people after retirement by printing money on demand? It’s effectively what we are doing except we now introduced a bu…

    I am so glad Masayoshi sold BD to Hyundai so Elon didn’t get his hands on them. They can easily go public for $10B.

    I guess they needed to support the stock today? This is just saying they will roll out M4 chips after M3. How prescient!

    You’re right. It’s a gross generalization. But it is based on my personal and professional experience.

    Think about the fact that education is pretty much free there. They even pay for Western institutions to set up satellite campuses. You’d think they should have the most educated a…

    For decades, they wanted to diversify away from oil and build tech industries. The problem is they don’t have skilled labor and would have to import “slaves” as they do with everyt…

    I don’t think people in East Asia work harder at all. It’s mostly sitting around and taking two hour lunches. I regularly worked 80-100 hours for most of my 20s and early 30s. It’s…

    And you wonder why China is experiencing brain drain. Rest of world is moving toward 4-day work week and these guys think their citizens are dumb enough to slave away their lives.

    I didn’t know Threads is still a thing. It is still very much barebones and frankly laughable for a product pushed out by a trillion dollar company. The fact that it took them five…

    Pro players train with AI and you can often see “blue dot” moves in tournament settings.

    And the same is happening for AI. It’s destined to blow up spectacularly down the road.

    How’s that prejudice? If you went and worked for Tesla after 2020 when all of their flaws were out in the open, then you opted into that environment. Are you saying you don’t make …

    That’s interesting. Anyone with Tesla after 2020 would be auto-reject in my book.

    Tesla is stuck with him and that will be the end. I do wonder why anyone with talent would work for Tesla at this point. Such a polarizing thing to have on your cv.

    Nice. RAPIDS with pandas is pretty fast so looking forward to what’s ahead.

    So Tesla is not like other companies…that survived secular changes. Tesla demographics changed quite a bit in the past five years.

    Who educates these scientists through PhD programs? Oh, OK. So we are paying these people to get their PhDs so they can go and start a company to scalp people with drugs that deliv…

    Because if the US doesn’t, Intel can go elsewhere. The problem with fabs in US is well documented. We simply do not have the necessary skilled labor.

    This guy has no idea what he’s talking about. He’s just a Youtuber with zero background. Edit: not saying he’s always wrong but his intention is to get clicks.

    How were consumers harmed from iMessage? Apple doesn’t stop people from downloading Whatsapp and hundreds of other communication apps. The only semi-valid argument they have is the…

    That’s not what antitrust is about. Functionally speaking, you would not be able to prove there’s economic harm. Apple’s share of smartphone does not even compare to MSFT’s share o…

    That’s not Apple’s doing. They introduced iMessage as a direct result of telecom companies charging customers for text messages a la carte. If DoJ has issues with those blue bubble…

    Completely off-topic but this post made me think about those Encarta discs growing up.

    It is but if we are talking speed, I’d just opt for RAPIDS.
