Not only academic. Look at the 2008 crisis. Only one banker went to jail. Look at Binance’s Zhao. Look at - ahem - Trump.

I suspect that the placebo effect can be very strong in anxiety situations. And on top of pure placebo. The whole rite of going to the kitchen and prepare your little pill has a calming effect in itself. And maybe matcha is the same. Its pr

Yeah I tried CBD as well. After a few days of being frustrated with the recommended doses, I gobbled the whole bottle (100€ or so worth of CBD), and absolutely nothing happened.

OpenAI is over ambitious. Their chasing of AGI is killing them. They probably thought that burning cash was the way to get to AGI, and that on the way there they would make significant improvements over GPT 4 that they would be able to rele

What’s the thing about moats? First: AI requires an awful lot of resources, which in itself is a moat. Second: having a moat doesn’t prevent your service to be attacked. See Tesla. Third: not having a moat doesn’t prevent your service from

If you can make something small that generates 30k in MRR, you should definitely do that. I fear that you are being quite optimistic about the numbers here…

When you keep the button pressed, it will add 5kph per second you press it or so. This is really the worst, cause I can't keep my eyes on that stuff for several seconds, so I always end up overshooting, and fiddling with the buttons wa

I take the opportunity to rant about cruise control / speed limit buttons, which have a much worse UX than climate control. If someone in the auto industry reads this: Can I get a button that says 50, one that says 80 and one that says

Is there any chance that the board considers it at all? I mean its mission is to maximize the interests of shareholders, and right now, it's unclear that OpenAI will maintain its dominating position over competitors in the long run. ED

This is a widespread problem in the medical world, and it is infuriating. That said, self-diagnosis using a AI tool makes me cringe. As an engineer, I know I could use this properly the same way OP did. As in, I would look at what the AI is

Not to undermine the study but if you ask regular users of anything, you’ll probably find that they like it, no? Eh, probably not.

NVidia stock is valued at $118 today. It was worth $50 in Jan 24. While the drop may sound huge, we're pretty far from a crash here.
