I understand this is ultimately due to AI boom. A couple of naive questions: 1. What's the bottleneck in ramping up RAM production? Is it the availability of silicon itself? Or the factories are at capacity? 2. Is this supposed to ease

$10M is also perhaps asking for too much to live a modest life even without working, but I hear you with rising costs and healthcare. In any case, $10M is 100x smaller than $1B.

First question: why? Why should I (or anyone) earn a billion dollars? PG made it seem like that's the ultimate goal somehow. Also, why only a billion dollars, PG? You see your infinite cancerous growth machine doesn't stop? This

Whatever you do, there is a level of trust that is assumed when census takes place. The trust that this data is then not identified in a way that could be targeted for scams, frauds, and other such evils. But in NY, house sale records are m

I am happy to know this emblem of knowledge stream keeps coming until 2035. It is wonderful to know our innovations have flown 200 odd million miles and work for so long!

Yes! At some point, the author even complains about the (weaker) US law for employee on how it's a mess to fire somebody, but easy to let go from an internship. So much about stability that employees seek.

This itself feels generated by AI. Especially the last few paragraphs in there.

Given the pace of AI growth, it is quite possible to have years off if layoffs begin in many places. We are training AI to replace many jobs. It seems like entry-level jobs are the only ones affected, but that's for now. Anything short

There needs be to a careful vetting before such adverse actions. If somebody includes a name and pushed it without express permission, does everyone get the ban? I agree that implemented the right way, this is good.

Well, but if I have a MacBook Air M4 with 16GB, I don't know what useful models can I run.

I strongly disagree on beliefs and hopes are coping mechanisms. Coping from what? Beliefs and hopes are what they are. But I agree worth should be derived from understanding, not through achievement.

Thank you for this comment. I often fall into the why of graduate school many times. The pay is insufficient, hours are long, but at least I find it very satisfying on good days. It is just the feeling that what I do may not be unique anymo

As a graduate student, this piece made me sad. I always believed that my work speaks for itself and transcends beyond my limited time on this cosmic experience. This notion of immortality was just a small intangible bonus I hoped for when I

Regarding the first problem: are you looking at NCP maps for non-Markovian processes given you mention C*-algebra? Or is it more of a continuous weak monitoring of a stochastic system that results in dynamics with memory effects? I'd b

The idea is cool, but I have become personally allergic to AI generated content and styles. This one is pretty surely built using Claude.

I echo similar sentiments. It is high time to choose self-hosting over handing over essentials to the cloud. You don't know when it could be inaccessible due to plethora of reasons. It is just that, every time I looked into setting up

I love chess! This version was fun too. If 1. Rx6,it is stalemate. So it must be 1. N4 N5. Then we could proceed with, 2. Nx6+ K7. Now, if you capture the knight (Rxe), it is stalemate again. So sacrifice the knight, 3. R4 Kx6

I agree with some parts but I mostly don't see the point of this article: shooting down ideas is a skill in academia, in industry, in fields where decisions have huge opportunity costs. One needs to shoot down ideas pretty often, becau

Much more than Google search. Cloud, Waymo, Verily, Deepmind, stake in Claude. So many bets other than just ads.

I hate to read this line when academics and graduate students who work in basic and hard sciences have their funding cut. The grand funding that pays minimum wage to grad students is a burden for this society, yet for a company that took al

The general sentiment here is that it's a great project. Could someone please explain why? All I'm seeing is that laws are updated with commits within markdown files.

At my cursory glance, I couldn't figure out what's the typical storage needed for this. I understand it depends on what knowledge databases I install, but some figures of estimations would have been lovely (e.g., Wikipedia is ~ 50
