Your scenario does not have enough information for valid advice. This is a negotiation, and you haven't mentioned what your leverage is, if any. If you have none, you're at their mercy, and negotiation is impossible - you will hav

And people always have a hard time understanding what a certain degree of accuracy actually means. E.g. when you hear that a speech recognition system has 95% accuracy (5% WER), it means that it gets every 19th word wrong. That's abysm

The best beginner assembly hands down is Z80. It may be a bit harder to start with, but if I could write games in it at 14 years old, an adult should have no issue at all.

Here's a ready-made idea for a high value AI app. Present to me the view of my favorite websites with all outrage clickbait hidden or re-worded in neutral, non-clickbait language. Better yet if you can also focus on the topics that I a

You don't know many Christians then. Some of the more religious folks I know are 100% in favor of sending Palestinian kids through woodchippers. As are both wings of the US government. And people who aren't in favor of that can al

I once saw a drug addict shoot up what looked like heroin in plain view of a police officer in Seattle. The officer did absolutely nothing. Needless to say downtown Seattle is also an extremely unpleasant place. In fact I'd say Seattle

Google in 2000: "Do no evil". Google in 2025: "Genocide is profitable". I wonder what Google users outside the US think about this in particular? Our "national security" could be their "national danger&quo

The US also has comparable hardware, and it had it for a while: Intel Gaudi. Similar perf characteristics, works very well for inference, costs substantially less than H100. The entire field seems to be drowning in money, so no one gives a

Great idea on Musk's part: the Deep State can't go after their wives, jobs or kids since they don't have them. At the same time they are smart enough to mine some databases for fraud.

And this would be _very_ good for Texas. Unlike Delaware, Texas charges the franchise tax as a percentage of taxable margin. This means Texas could impose almost 600M in tax on Meta if my napkin math is right. In Delaware the franchise tax
