That's a horrible analogy since it assumes that a brand new hire is instantly as productive as any other employee.

That's because ChatGPT was able to sustain service past the point of mass adoption. You're not going to scale to millions of users in a short timespan with dedicated hardware.

If I remember right he owned a computer company he used the domain for, but he pretty much devoted his domain to his anti-nissan campaign until he passed away.

The difficulty isn't in connecting to their wifi, but rather reverse engineering this bizarre backdoor just to project your voice in the elevator.

It's not hard to subtly stick a small flat wireless speaker to the wall, and by the time they notice it the attack is already complete.

Reminds me of nissan.com, which is now nearly worthless because Nissan Motors doesn't care anymore.

It'd be far more trivial to put a wireless speaker in an elevator than it would be to reverse engineer this.

Because the recruiting process can cost over a year's salary, and that's ignoring the time it takes to get up to the same productivity as other employees once they start.

I disagree, mostly because if your product takes off, that single day or few weeks where the adoption rate sky rockets may be your defining moment for your startup, and scaling up on the cloud is trivial in comparison. Remember, when you&#x

I don't understand why Google and Amazon would invest all this money in these employees building up their tech and tribal knowledge just to lay them off. Do these companies not expect to grow in the future? Seems like just freezing hir

That's more of an annoyance than a safety issue though. This is definitely one of those YAGNI things where it's not worth worrying about until it becomes a recurring issue, which is highly unlikely.

Both the M1 and 5800U run around 15W and are already clocked for efficiency. The M1 Max is their higher clocked less efficient offering.

My guess is it's related to the higher transistor count. The M1 for example has 16B transistors compared to the 5800U with 10.7B.

If you take a Zen 3 running at optimal clocks for efficiency (such as the 5800U) the difference between its computing performance per watt is competitive with the M1 if you account for the difference in node size (which TSMC claims gives 30

I use tabs a lot but at least in my case all this feature means is that the page refreshes when I go back to the tab, and for tabs I rarely access that's not a huge deal. Most sites where this would be an issue have session tokens anyw

Of course anything that's ephemeral doesn't apply, since it's going to quickly become a broken link anyways.

The vast majority of uses for this would be to redirect you to the proper domain, which doesn't even need to touch any of your existing tech, since you could use a cloud service to handle the redirect portion.

As a former chicago resident who lived near a station, that wasn't my experience. In the time it took to walk down to the station and wait to get onto a train, I could already be at most restaurants and stores if I used a car in the su

The only other option is to cut your service off which is usually the worst option available for a SaaS.

Mind you I need 2 rooms for my family. 2 hotel rooms vs 1 airbnb. I've never seen the hotel option being cheaper for comparable quality.

They grow like crazy at a loss and then take advantage of their market dominance to strong-arm the prices back up. To be honest I'm more shocked that hotels are still having trouble beating AirBNB prices. When we went to Hawaii we want

I don't think you understand the scope of training data required for these models. We're talking thousands of lifetimes worth of reading for ChatGPT (GPT-3 for example is trained on 45TB of textual data).

That's why I'm still skeptical about whether we are heading the right direction with current DNN techniques. We're basically brute forcing extremely complex statistical models that rely on countless data to build those regres

The difference is that people have been using ChatGPT for months. It doesn't have as much to prove as Bard, which we know nothing about.
