    Can’t this cynical take be used to nullify any and all journalism? I get the need to be suspicious generally but this comment doesn’t add to the conversation in any substantive man…

    From a high-level design standpoint, wouldn’t the general-purposeness of NVIDIA’s GPUs (even if they do have some AI/LLM optimizations) put them generally at a disadvantage compare…

    Naive question: how is brute-force cracking still a thing in real-world systems? Aren’t there time-outs/bans for guessing wrong after like 3-5 guesses? How does one get the opportu…

    Ask HN: Gap between LK99 breakthrough and super-semi-conductors?
