Breathe a sigh of relief WB wasn't bought by David Ellison. Cry softly the next Superman movie will barely be in theaters... Surely there will be a kpop-demon hunters X DC universe X mortal kombat game that comes out of this...

I did read the book, and the takeaway is that causal disentaglement is hard and a high bar, with even the causal link between cigarette smoking an cancer hard to "prove" until recently

Was it really wise to name this Mojo when Chris Lattner, former Head 9f Engineering at SiFive also called his well funded programming language Mojo?

Did not realize the cofounder of Interplay also ported Doom for the 3DO. Looking at Fabien Sanglard's Doom Blackbook ( https://fabiensanglard.net/b/gebbdoom.pdf ), I just now noticed that Heineman actually provided

Brian Krzanich was the primary architect of Intel's demise. A huge amount of Intel's problems stem from opting to go with DUV rather than EUV light source for lithography, and this decision was made during Krzanich's tenure.

Karpathy needs to cite the damn papers. In this case its clear he read or at least heard of: https://arxiv.org/abs/2506.14245&ved=2ahUKEwjru7nL5fmQAxUMDT... For a guy with such high profile, its soooo easy to take

In the startup and business world you reward execution not ideas. Ideas are easy. I have an idea for a memristor based neural processor for low power on device AI, but its worthless because I dont have the 9 billion dollars to realize this

They shipped AirPods and the Apple Watch during his tenure. And the ahem, Vision Pro. The M-series chips are probably the biggest win for Apple in the past 15 years. There hasn't been lack of category killers during his stint. If anyth

From this writeup it does sound like the architecture of the AMD gpu makes it a bit harder to optimize. It also seems like long term, the AMD approach may scale better in the long run. 8 chiplets rather than 2 for the nvidia offering, along

I remember playing the demos for NOLF and NOLF2 years ago. If I had known it would be impossible to buy 25 years later, I would have bought the game! I also remember reading articles in Game Developer magazine about how sophisticated the AI

The data you're sending out is just the position and motion vectors of the pupils. And you probably only need about 16 bits for each of these numbers for 2 eyes. So the equivalent of two floating point numbers along a particular channe

They crammed a computer into the headset, but UNLIKE Meta's offerings, this is indeed an actual computer you can run linux on. Perhaps even do standard computer stuff inside the headset like text editing, Blender modeling, or more.

Rule 14 is pretty interesting. Keep the teams small and reward performance with compensation. Don't just reward increasing headcount. Could improve things at so many tech companies today.

I dislike Hegseth and MAGA as much as anything, but quite honestly what you are describing is just bureacracy, and it doesn't serve a country well in an actual armed conflict. In the current Ukraine conflict, the US provided something

Agree, agree, agree. New technologies should make iteration time on this stuff faster not shorter... even for complex things like fighter aircraft. The fact that there are over a dozen Chinese humanoid robotics companies that have shipped w

This is probably the more likely scenario, but it's really a chicken or the egg problem. Hopefully some molecular clock based research will iron out which one came first.
