    Cookie popups were once issued by browsers in response to a Set-Cookie header. 25 years ago, it was fairly common to open the login page, type in your creds and _then_ hit "accept …

    They run linux and offer ssh but with a custom shell that mirrors the "web shell" in usefulness. Ubiquiti sucks nowadays but Microtik is simply insane.

    50 years for large models is a stretch, though TI did have smaller, real-time field-trainable neural nets almost 40 years ago: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/FGM-148_Javelin#Seeker …

    I made no mention of anyone being politically sympathetic or otherwise. A private investor is _private_ and thus not subject to a government bailout. The argument for government ba…

    And these equity-investors, do they use their own money to buy the (presumably non-voting) stocks? Cause if that's the case, I see no reason for a government bailout should things …

    They're not profitable either, so the money has to come from somewhere, no?

    Most bank runs tend to be driven by vibes, not numbers though. The good news is that these folks seem to be in possession of a vibe-rator.

    I'm not a systems guy, but you're probably right. A mutex requires an atomic variable which triggers the same cache coherency mechanism under contention. What Justine probably mean…

    The size difference between the local LLM and all of the above is about... the size of the local LLM.

    The video is about a 2x1 link, which the author hopes to eventually scale up to 3x4 using 40 gig transceivers. I'd say thunderbolt is probably safe in the near future.
