Better routing can definitely reduce that 100ms, I don't think that's purely capped by speed of light.

Ironically nearly all ML demos like Stable Diffusion are setup and run for free on Google's Colab, so to claim they don't want to help the field is a little silly.

To be fair, what kicked out this whole saga was a real life match between him and Magnus Carlson. There are plenty of theories out there about how he could've cheated, some more absurd than others. Also, there has been history of peopl

I think the biggest tell is how he wasn't able to explain his play and just threw a smug response whenever asked to describe anything.

I thought it was a fascinating and well produced history of Project Aurora and how it went down at Google. It was a massive attack, and the reason Google pulled out of China.

What I find interesting is the duality of YouTube criticism. On the one hand, YouTube should respect people's like and dislikes to a letter, but also at the same time YouTube pushes people into dark echo chamber rabbit holes by only gi

But what did Google do that's worse than what Apple did? It's a bit ironic that by making their OS opensource, they somehow are more guilty than Apple for keeping their OS locked down. Android allows hundreds of companies to have

Yeah, I find it funny that most of the conversations were always focused on ad-blockers, but honestly it seems like for 99% of people who don't use the power user features, it'll be a no-op on that end. It's other extensions

I also don't think this is necessarily a bad thing. It feels like many of the examples given are the more extreme cases where it goes too far, but looking at the pilots of most TV shows (especially sitcoms), the characters are fairly g

I'm confused, how is this different than adding a 5$ membership program? Why is allowing the creator to sell video content users want a bad thing? Yes Youtube gets a cut, but that's literally how every single platform works.

That would be awesome. With Sheets, I often jump into AppScript to write a quick javascript function to do what I want instead of having to deal with weird syntax. I wish I could do the same in Python.
