How fast is this and how big does the index get? I noticed in the demo there were only 100 files that were used which made for accurate response and a snappy response. Cool project btw.

You misunderstand my statement on tax. Taxs on investors are quite high in Ontario/Canada compared to California. Not only does this minimize the outcome for the investor - it decreases the risk for making larger bets on big outcomes.

I've thought about this one for a long time having lived in both SV and Canada. It is a complicated one but there are a handful of critical road blocks in Canada that make it more challenging. (1) Access to size of market even if onlin

OpenAI most definitely needs the compute from MSFT. It could certainly swap out to another service but given that microsoft invested via credits it would be problematic. They have enmeshed their future.

That's dissapointing. I was hoping they'd be happy getting enough revenue to stay private. What do they need to raise capital for?

Here's a solution: BG2 with Bill Gurley and Brad Gerstner is imho superior in quality and depth and bonus points as you don't have to listen to those 4 people.

I think what you are talking about was what large companies that were startups built over the last 5-10 years and felt betrayed by the anti company sentiment even though they had all a ton of fantastical things for employees and mostly unch

Like I said - if you can't see why they dropped the ball on the advertisement then that falls on your own ability to interpret. To your question - they literally used crush and destroy as their message. Unforced error on Apples part pl

Byzantium = Eastern roman empire. They referred to themselves as Roman and in every way were Roman. Funny that we bifurcated the empire nomenclature for our own classification.

It was a depressing advertisement. I don't know why you would want that to be your message as a company. I know that wasn't their intention but thats what the message came across as. Some arm of the company doesn't allow pe

The advertisement statement is destroying all these things and replacing them by an iPad. I.E. thats the sales pitch -- you don't need any of these things anymore just this iPad. Hollywood does destroy all sorts of things but that

To add to this - if you get buried in an avalanche you likely go hypoxic. Many people pulled out sometimes in the moment react negatively to be saved as they are pulled out of a euphoric state even though they are literally getting saved f

I subscribe to this thought. HN has really made a turn that anything Elon does is bad even when he has managed to pull off some unbelievable feats. He isn't binary in his accomplishments as most people are fairly complex. It's

You have to remember a lot of those expenses are actually goosing the companies revenues side with low qual revenue. A good portion of investment dollars into OpenAI are with Microsoft credits -- which OpenAI then uses as opposed to real m

I don't disagree with your comment - not liking Elon is a great reason not to buy a Tesla. I think it's a faux moi thing to say you don't want to support Tesla because you were disenfranchised with them because of them laying
