Assuming that there are infinite suckers with cash to spend. It's entirely possible (if unlikely) that the market is not big enough to cover the training costs. Especially for multiple companies all burning insane amount of money on th

I'm in these stats I think. But mostly because I was trying to do an exact search ("something to search") and discovered that google just ignores it. There's a local search engine with a motto that translates to somethin

Ok, I have to ask. How do you accidentally turn it off? The power button is at the top and it's flush. It's not like you can hit it accidentally.

Well, first of all, stop lying. These people aren't leaving the company. They were fired. They were removed. Leaving sounds voluntary. Then, this might be a cultural thing, but I don't want niceties and flowery language. Give it t

Asking this sort of question is not great in professional context either. Someone working for the police could say: "Yeah, my boss made me clean up a triple homicide." Or a janitor at a fast food could say: "We found a dead a

I mean, it's possible that with the new datacenter from SpaceX, they could onboard more users than it costs them to rent. That's fair. But I kind of doubt that. One thing that really stinks to me is that various AI boosters have b

Without actual data I don't know. My gut feeling is that they overall lose money on subscriptions (and especially the free tier that accounts for 95% of all users). And make thin profit (~5%) on API pricing. But it's just that. A

Kind of, yeah. LLMs are hyperoptimized for one-shotting. But all of their code is like that. It's poison for the long term health of the codebase.

Does Anthropic really expect to double their income without also doubling their expenses?

Amazing. People here would rather be mad at fake racism than at real racism. I wonder if that correlates with how much they're invested in LLMs.

On a semi-related note, Microsoft security is genuinely terrible. For the past week, my Microsoft authenticator has been pinging about sign-ins from random places. Except the login history page is completely empty. Not even my own sign ins

To be fair, Microsoft dogfooding something for once would be great.

I keep reading this sort of comment quite a lot, but programming isn't always about automating jobs away. In my career I have not eliminated a single job. I don't consider that a failure on my part.

> This is a false narrative, from the Freenet FAQ[1]: I'm sorry, but nothing following that even comes close to proving that it's a false narrative. Quite the opposite actually.

On second thought, is this the reason anthropic is making these gigantic deals (1.2T to xAI, 200B to Google, >100B to AWS, 30B to Azure)? Is it just so that they can claim this is an amortized cost rather than a monthly reccuring operati

How are the margins 50%+? There's an article from today where if they double their current revenue to $10.9B they will make ~$500M profit. Maybe I just can't count, but that's a margin of ~5% no? These numbers should be infer

Hmm, it looks like if their revenue doubles to ~$10B and their expenses don't, they stand to gain a very sweet ~$500M. https://www.reuters.com/business/anthropic-nears-first-quart... That being said, it does look

Kyselý is also a Czech word for sour. So you've also got that to look forward to.

This is such an overstated issue. There's not really that many MMOs. It's hard to say, but I would estimate that there are ~600-1000 MMOs total. Many of them are quite simple (like Club Penguin, MapleStory, ...) or already have th

Counter-Strike: Global Offensive was a game running all of these things (matchmaking, skins, anticheat ...). After Counter-Strike 2 was released, the servers for CS:GO were shut down. Yet, the game remains mostly playable. Sure, the skins n

This has an easy solution. If the middleware cannot be used in a new regulatory environment then it will either die or adapt.
