No mention of how many cybertruck pre-order cancellations in the shareholder PDF... I personally know two people who got tired of waiting and now own Rivians (and then cancelled).

'Member when DevOps was about improving DX? I member. Since every organization lost sight of the fact that DevOps should be serving the Developers as a customer - DevEx was a low priority and DevOps became about infrastructure purism.

Except you need to build 'boring' 35-50 floor towers that are pre-designed and already have built versions of themselves. That way you can just buy the design and have a few people with prior experience building them to help out.

I have a suspicion that Tesla FSD / Vision is "cooking the books" so to speak. The fact they have an Elon mode, they probably focus on his day to day trips heavily. All the influencers and YouTubers who use it experience mont

I view C Corp the same way as asking the question "how do I make my infrastructure scale to 1 million users (I have 0 currently)". Make a successful LLC or S Corp, then worry about the structure. Unless you plan to give out equity

Just make sure to host it on some other hosting provider. If you're on AWS, use GCP or Azure, etc.. A previous DevOps team I worked with brilliantly centralized everything into K8s, including the status page software. Then pushed a K8s

Would fine tuning be able to fix this kind of problem in a model like LLaVA? I am not sure if it even has the right foundation data set to even understand the myriad of gauges that exist in the world, so I doubt fine tuning will fix anythin

Backlog size is inversely proportional to how strong the product team is in your organization. More "No we aren't doing that idea" vs yes men. If your backlog is massive, people aren't having hard conversations about wha

This is why we need to focus on smaller, more efficient models. A lot of the 13 and 30bn parameter models are actually quite good, maybe not GPT4 but it can run on my M1 MBP without an issue, and a bit faster than GPT4 anyway. I don't

Yeah, I saw a TikTok of a person installing a electronic kill switch in the car so that the fuel pump wouldn't run. It was a 2020 Lexus SUV, and I was baffled since it was in Toronto. Didn't realize car theft has become that bad i

Feels like a fluff piece. 100 microwatts of power at 15x15x15mm means its applications are very limited. Given that its nuclear I assume it will have diminishing power generation over time. A regular RTG like the ones used in voyager produc

Seen this several times in my career. It's not all VC hockey stick growth, many companies are just profitable, they have 10-20 employees and the owner lives a great life style. Generally the pay is pretty good and they focus on custome

So in that same 30%, Spotify pays: 1. Engineering staff 2. Hosting costs (probably tens of millions of dollars annually) 3. All other liabilities Apple for that 30% 1. Charges a credit card 2. Pushes app updates 3. "Verifies" app

Those who fail to learn from history are doomed to repeat it. Anti-trust was started for a reason, we know how this ends long term, little competition and increased prices for everyone.

Shout out to OP for ModelFusion. Probably one of the better ways to use LLMs instead of just integrating the OAI API and reinventing the rest of the wheel. Handles lots of corner cases and lets you swap in other models easily. https:/

I doubt many people are using local setups for serious work. Even fine tuning Mixtral is 4xH100 for 4 days. Which is a ~$200k server currently. To fully train, not just fine tune a small model, say Llama 2 7b you need over 128GiB of vram, s
