If this is AI generated, we are in for some real treats in the coming years. I want Beethoven's tenth!

I agree w/ the first part: this is distinctly Chopin and beautiful. Not sure why a critique of the NYT is needed; they wrote a great article and had a great performer perform it. Other "cultural organizations" can do what the

To me, there is an underlying issue: why are so many DeepX papers being sent to Nature, instead of appropriate CS forums? If you are doing better work in chip design, send it to IPSD or ISCA or whatever, and then you will get the types of r

There clearly are single examples here and you would lose this bet.

also keep using Peking, Bombay, etc.? I don't see why you'd spend time writing this; if the country wants to be called something by us, it's not too hard to honor the wish.

When something built on top of the filesystem is "faster" than the filesystem, it just means "when you use the filesystem in a less-than-optimal manner, it will be slower than an app that uses it in a sophisticated manner.&qu

This movie was terrible and I thought hugely offensive to the memory of Turing and all involved. Awful awful awful.

Was going to say the same. Makes almost all window positioning stuff fun and good.

Great talk and I have been enjoying your work. Keep it up!

yes, exactly. There will be a lot of these types of articles in the next few years, some disappointments along the way, but deep and longlasting change in the tech sector and beyond is coming.

I agree it is shortsighted. If Apple doesn't grow, their competitors will, and soon enough they are building better things because they have more resources. But, it is irritating: sometimes you just want people to do a few things well,

This was a pretty wise article from a young person. The PhD path can be tough, and there are always low points, even for people who are doing well. The one thing I always thought about was the old joke about medical school. Q: "What do

This guy's work - imho - is like many business books. Simple idea, stated over and over. Most of the ideas can be summarized in a paragraph or so.

pretty silly to credit someone for "surfing the web" when surfing was already used in the context of TVs, etc.

Seems like an important thing to do: it gives smart people, no matter the background, and chance to show their stuff. That said, we should be putting work in to level the "prep" playing field. Some people have the resources to do

look, I'm a public school guy through and through, but to say people who go to Harvard don't get any benefit from going there is pretty silly.

Once had my advisor give me a paper to read. On it, fairly clearly, were his kid's boogers.

This seems highly hand wavy to me. We have biological proof that intelligence can be created, mostly through the neocortex, which in and of itself is actually a fairly simple structure repeated at great scale. Why wouldn't we be able t

This is good advice - it is good to keep all of these things in mind. I would add: Let them see you sweat a bit. When they see you are working hard to make a great class for them, they too put in more work.
