Can I get one at home to "work" for me? I'm willing to pay $100 per week as "salary" until it is paid off. Considering the fact that it likely won't be useful and I'll end up spending all of my time just k

As I understand it, Musk has worked for years without getting paid. The "paycheck" you refer to is actually the OPTION to buy stock at an agreed upon price. So he has to pay to get paid. That set of stock options required him to l

My kids call it my "Dad-kins" (a pun on Atkins) diet. Buy a scale. Record your weight. (e.g. 200.0lbs) Week 1: you can eat anything you want in one sitting if the scale shows less than 200.0lbs Week 2: you can eat anything you wa

Your linked article claims it was not a lab leak. re: BSL-2 vs BSL-4 ... Assuming it WAS a lab leak, was there an a-priori reason to believe that among the many different naturally occurring viruses under study that SARS-CoV-2 would cause a

Lab leak? Vincent Racaniello, a leading virologist ( https://www.microbe.tv/twiv/ ) seems to think that the genetic sequence of the covid virus and the bat version of the virus are nearly identical. That genetic evidence

Motivated by this post I found my oldest laptop. It still boots. During boot it displays "memory counting" ... up to 256k! It runs DOS from diskettes. Ah, memories :-)

I've been looking at yeast to see if it is possible to create a NOR gate. Then the game is to use the CPU that someone created in Conway's game of life to create a yeast-based computer. The CRISPR stuff: "We demonstrate the w

I have about 6000 books, about 1000 of these are on Kindle. Of the 6000, most have bookmarks. I read at least the first 50 pages of most of them. I've finished a couple hundred so far. I found my old business cards make perfect bookmar

I've spent my life trying to understand computers, all the way from the chemistry of the quality of quartz used to make wafers up to the nuances of LLMs and their robot embodiments. I'm a level 1 kinda guy. I never quite understoo

Methinks the attempt to create general purpose quantum computers is a false direction. Once you've played with a quantum computer (I used IBM's online QC) the novelty wears off. It is basically "operators" (2x2 Pauli mat

Love to play with it but not at that price. It's going to cost me a LOT of time and attention, wasting time with installing drivers, setting up the whole dev environment, deciding if the bug is mine or theirs, etc. Not to mention that

Traditional AI approaches to games involves reinforcement learning (RL). This type of learning is also used post-LLM as reinforcement learning with human feedback (RLHF) to improve the LLM. At the moment my effort involves a focus on mathem

Suppose you weigh 180.0 lbs. Suppose your target weight is 160.0 Week 1 at 180.0. Eat ONLY when you weigh less. Week 2 at 179.9. Eat ONLY when you weigh less. Week 3 at 179.8. Eat ONLY when you weigh less. ... You get the pattern. When you

You could probably do the same thing with bacterio-rhodopsin. I used it to build a form of rewriteable paper. It switches states based on two different laser frequencies.
