I'm pretty sure there should be english announcements. Maybe they were broken. You also get this information via the displays on the wagons and on the screens inside. There is a bu…

On the contrary. Btrfs had a long standing issue where you could make the filesystem checksums not match with non-stable O_DIRECT writes (so even with a single disk). This has only…

We cannot even guess what the timeline would be. This is why it is insane to invest in it and expect a positive return in usual investing horizons.

And it imitates all the unimportant bits perfectly (like spelling, grammar, word choice) while failing at the hard to verify important bits (truth, consistency, novelty)

I'm afraid you are falling for a psychopath (see e.g. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=01LK1hxpwcY for analysis). They are sometimes good at lying.

The autonomous drones fighting in the next war (let's hope not...).

On one of the latest Odd lots episodes finally an analyst had an investment thesis that made sense to me: They think they are building an AI god. If you think of it in religious te…

Yeah, but they are also financing the gold miners. Also, what to do with the shovels that are not sold if there are no buyers?

Yeah, the latest thing is the the 20 billion $ Argentina bailout (or Bessents hedge fund buddies exit liquidity). 20 billion ... gone. Another 15 billion will go to soybean farmers…

This went through the court system and it found that the "raid" was not appropriate and unlawful. Mistakes happen and get corrected. Doesn't mean there is a systemic issue.

So it is regulatory arbitrage. I think many of the critics never contested that crypto is good for doing crime. The critics just also think that either those crimes should continue…

Looking at recent threads on the forums: No. I do handle annoying feature requests on my open source project by just ignoring them.

I thought it was starting when Ilya said that scaling has plateaued about a year ago. Now confirmed with GPT-5. Now they'll need to sell a pivot from AGI to productization of what …

We already turned off the tap (look at the link above). It is just unimportant countries like Hungary and Slovakia that still import pipeline gas (and they're not making any friend…

Google has defaults as their huge moat. They have Chrome and Android under their control and pay Apple and Mozilla to be the default search engine. Here in Europe this is mitigated…

What I also find amazing is the server software used to run it ( https://github.com/MCHPR/MCHPRS ): - Re-implements parts of Minecraft - Runs 512x512 plots in different threads - C…

My argument was specific to the use case as speculative asset. Currencies usually have other uses.

Bitcoin is a negative-sum game. You can only get out what others put in and miners continuously have to pay for electricity and chips to keep the game going. It is also a dump spec…

LLMs are good at prototyping something that is similar to something that already exists and is open sourced. It may be that there are such projects which can be monetized or need b…

For me it is too slow to run Age of Empires 2: DE multiplayer. More than ten year old Laptops with Intel chips are faster there.

Same thing with the 1.3 billion EUR investment of ASML into Mistral. ASML -> Mistral -> NVIDIA -> TSMC -> ASML -> ...

E.g. go to the next "No kings" protest.

You had to take him seriously but not literally.
