EVGA's profits might've been low but as far as I can see NVIDIA's profit and growth has increased significantly since Ethereum launched[0] and money today helps with R&D for tomorrow (and R&D budgets have increased ev

While the shortages are real I've bought GPUs during those years, never for even 2x MSRP (though obviously more than MSRP). Prices have also surely increased due to gamers at times (even if less so) without me hating them, and MSRP has

Fischer (e.g. 1975), Kasparov (e.g. screw you I'll make my own federation with hookers and blow) are both as prominent players to do things even more qualifying of a ragequit than this though there's plenty of examples more simila

I still find it hard to believe that creating demand for something is bad for its future. Should I hate gamers for driving demand for my consumer card which I buy for machine learning?

No, the hardest part is likely to understand statistics, have data on cheaters and non-cheaters, analyze the differences, develop and test your methods on validation data, iterate on your process etc. >includes having the entire tree of

In a similar way that the best chess engine developer is not the best chess player there's little reason to think that the best person to detect chess engine use is the best player.

Hans made a comment after their game but before the drama - "Must be embarrassing for the World Champion to lose to such an idiot like me" which couldve easily tilted Magnus more than a simple loss with black (rather than white) o

It comes from a twitch follower saying it as a joke in the chessbrah stream and GM Eric Hansen running with the joke. It's never been a serious theory even if mainstream media and Colbert or Trevor Noah make it seem like it is for view

The only confirmed cheating we know is online, in a no prize money setting at ages 12 and 16. This is hardly sufficent for banning him for life in FIDE OTB Tournaments as an adult if they don't have other evidence. It's like banni

It's more of a case of reverse Gell-Mann Amnesia where Marcus is so blinded by his bone to pick with DL that he doesn't realize that Scott is as right/reasonable in writing about AI as those other topics.

While I'm generally very unsympathetic to Marcus' anti-AI arguments at this point, this critique makes some sense. If e.g. the model is just combining the features at random, you'd expect it to combine them the right way over

If you are talking about payments of non-crypto products, I was exploring the hiring for small jobs subs on reddit yesterday and the two main accepted means of payment I saw seemed to be PayPal and stablecoins.

by Tenoke 4y ago

Sometimes people are famous under a username or pseudonym. Also Twitter generally verifies people at risk of being impersonated. It doesn't matter if you know who say CZ is but if thousands of people would pretend to be him and others

If uBlock doesn't provide a compatible extension or if their extension is worse than possible I'd likely just switch to the best alternative which will pop-up. I imagine most users will do the same.
