That seems naive in a status quo bias way to me. Why and where do you expect AI progress to stop? It sounds like somewhere very close to where we are at in your eyes. Why do you think there won't be many further improvements?

$3k is already close to the price of just a 5090, so if you can have a reasonably fast but way more (equivalent to) VRAM (128gb) machine sounds great for a hobbyist assuming you can easily run and train llama, Stable Diffusion and similar v

>"let's migrate our infra from AWS to X" We migrated to Scaleway pretty easily and the main argument was that it's easier to conform to EU regulations if all your servers and data are on an European cloud.

Hetzner has been the cheapest big option when you just want raw servers for at least a decade, and e.g. Scaleway is pretty similar in price to US based providers.

I usually don't remember details like that but I practice the ways to get them - e.g. for elementary school you should know how old you were for the year, and then you can check at what date elementary school starts in your area (where

I was skeptical that Bitcoin still uses more than AI but it seems to indeed be the case (or close) - current Energy estimates for Bitcoin recently are at 175 TW/h[0] (though I don't know if those are extra pessimistic or not). For

I guess with this they can also record user-browser interactions to use as training data, which is one way I was envisioning for creating a human-like AGI back in the day (2019)[0]. Of course, the current paradigm has went in a different di

Driving performance after 24+ hours of being awake is pretty irrelevant to phones (even if they cause you to sleep less they don't cause you to not sleep at all), and it's just some brief effect with no reason to think otherwise f

Err, checking the line on a horse race is a much more reliable way to tell who has what chance of winning than going to the stables as a random person, and most likely for a professional as well.

Yes, though it's not about taking precedence but about sampling frequency. So for example, if you have 1 GB emails, 10 GB external data, you can instead sample your emails twice as much and effectively change the ratio of what the mode
