Sometimes value is not in the code or the product. But the fact that leg work is done and something is generally accepted for the purpose. For me it looks like type of product where the pain is not making the software. It is getting everyon

Multiple failures. One on writer of blog even for a moment considering that such data set would be legal. And next for MS for hiring such a person with that poor judgement. Namely publicly posting about it on company platform. Instead of ch

It is just very hard problem when you are very popular work. Trying to find and track and take down all copies of certain work online is constant fight. Sometimes things just slip especially if they are not that popular. Something like Harr

On consumer side looking at a few past generations I question that. I would guess that we are nearing some sort of plateau there or already on it. There was inflation, but still not even considering RAM prices from last jump gains relative

Just considering alternatives on that sort of numbers. Billions just letting that money sit. And if you want more than that and actually to pay it back in say 10 or 20 years... Which I question with some capex stuff going around... It just

With entities like BlackRock. There is always on which part of money they manage they are simple followers. Index funds simply follow indexes. They can not decide not to invest according to set out rules. And when you get to active manageme

Or Gillette. Or Jaguar. Wrong sort of advertising can provably destroy your brand image among your consumers. Social media helps to amplify things in both directions. So you really need to know your audience's current mindset. Or wrong

They should charge rate. But rate should be similar to say interbank rate. Maybe plus something like 0.5%. This is how standard loaning often operates. You have risk free lending so you get loan from somewhere else and then take some margin

You know what is the sad part. I don't think software developers or LLMs know how or want anymore to make low resource consumption software that runs on a thin client. It will be some browser based thing capping to whatever memory is a

I have heard that you can get used laptops. But they do not come with memory or SSD anymore... As even used components are now valuable enough to be removed and sold.

If storage and memory manufacturer don't respond with increasing supply. There might not be glut. Just postponed demand that will slowly get fulfilled over longer period. That is if we were in steady state. On other hand if there is bi

Hearing about their scrapping practises it might be that they are storing same data over and over and over again. And then yes, audio and video is likely something they are planning for or already gathering. And if they produce lot of video

That is inflationary. Goods costing more monetary units is inflation. In deflation same amount of monetary units buys more goods. So you would want to sell your house now if you have other options and then next year you could buy similar ho

That would be interesting to figure out. Say you are single guy in some cheaper cost of living region. And then some SV startup got say million in funding. Surely that startup should give at least couple thousand to your sole proprietorship

I really wonder is there even enough dump money from them to sell the stock they hold. Not to mention even raising any new capital... Is there really enough bag holders that will run after these stock with large enough piles of money?
