Outlier players exist in every game, probably because of normal distribution. Federer for tennis, Carlsen for chess, Serral for SC2 and dorkwood for his game. The only way to certify their level is through strictly controlled competitions.

Language models and image generation make fun demos, but do we have transformative use cases that'll actually require large ML compute in the future ? Voice recognition and translation are the only ones that comes to mind, yet don&#x27

We forget how uncustomizable Horizons is. Just like the internet in the 90s, innovation is faster in an open ecosystem. But Meta can't allow that for performance & safety reasons. Open VRChat if you want to see a real metaverse.

The obvious solution is to award a percentage of the fine. They give between 10 and 30% of the money collected [1] [1] https://www.sec.gov/news/press-release/2022-40

I agree HN could be improved with small CSS changes, but no backend change would be required.

Weird, I thought you needed 1024 Kubernetes nodes, a 70mb React bundle and 200 engineers to host 50M monthly sessions.

A friend of mine worked for a mainstream European science news website. Most journalists had no science background, and were pressured into writing 4 articles a day. The result of course, was low quality articles and hastily copied press r

When Notion had a lot of outages in 2020, my entire 200-employee company stopped working hours at a time. I didn't even notice, happily using my markdown notes.

It's common to hear "handmade is higher quality", but is it always true? Automation with solid QA can be more reliable than humans, but a fraction of the cost. Mass production has a bad rap, but it's an art too, and can

Same, and I'm not looking back. Docker performance is stellar, everything is dev friendly, and the OS actually treats you like an adult.

Reminds me of the free .tk domains. It attracted so much spam and malware that Facebook ended up banning the tld. This is why we can't have nice things.

It's crazy that 5 years of updates can break most systems. It's long in internet time, but nothing compared to other industries. Maybe we should settle down a bit and have longer LTS

As of today there are 12 civilian nuclear-powered ships in service the world [1], with 2 even dating from the 70s. I guess the tech is mature. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nuclear-powered_icebreaker

Do you have a source regarding your pricing claim? Renewables are usually cheaper per W, but way more expensive in real world usage (battery storage + full life cycle costs)
