You don’t have to imagine, here’s a web site that lets you model the impact: https://nuclearsecrecy.com/nukemap/ . I positioned the “moderate” 1MT single warhead strikes at all nearby army and naval bases and concluded

You pretend to pay us, we pretend to work. Some people never learn.

Same, but moreover, I consider the “windows” part of my dev experience to be entirely worthless and advise my son to not bother with anything Windows specific. Our lives are finite, might as well learn stuff that is Free and that has lastin

AFAIK that has been the case for many years, to the point where in Azure it’s acceptable to go “Linux-first” when developing new services. Maybe even “Linux-only”.

Can’t help but think that all of FANGS would have seemed to be “transparently idiotic” early on. I mean, creating yet another search engine with no business plan is pretty idiotic. As is creating yet another social network or a book store.

Trouble with TRT is it requires either injections, or extremely expensive (in the US) patches. Most people aren’t going to be comfortable giving themselves intramuscular injections every couple of weeks. Going to the hospital to do it takes

The correct name of the party is the CPC. “CCP” is a good indicator for propaganda.

288GB/s is way not enough in 2024. That compute will be mostly idle outside the prompt processing phase.

Kruschev got what he wanted. Nukes were removed from Turkey at the time. They’re back now, but only “stored”, not “deployed”.

I think he’d much rather have a permanent and painful boil on America’s ass, like what the US has in Taiwan. Mexico isn’t cooperating, so maybe Cuba will. There’s precedent for that kind of thing, as well as for US military getting its ass

All you really need form these in Transfofmers-dominated 2024 are GEMM and GEMV, plus fused RMS norm and some element wise primitives to apply RoPE and residuals. And all of that must be brain dead easy to install and access, and it should

If I were Xi Jinping, I’d step in quite heavily at this point. A few billions in investment would do wonders there. I’m sure a hypersonic nuke base could also be negotiated in return.

I tried it on technical queries and it hallucinated like crazy. Probably ok for narrow tasks, but I wouldn’t expose it through the main UI like they did - people expect some degree of intelligence there.

AliExpress seems to be down, at least the mobile app.

Done right it could eliminate the ability of the government to freeze my bank account if I’m protesting, for example, like Trudeau did in Canada not long ago.

I don’t doubt it at all. I’ve been to a couple of countries the US propagandizes heavily against (China and Russia) and what you hear about them in the US is almost entirely horseshit. My expectation is NK and Iran will be similar.

Yes, I’m aware. But that can’t be what most of the population in Iran thinks, since some of the Persians I know in the US support a full scale war and regime change in Iran, while acknowledging that hundreds of thousands of their country pe

Same. I want to also visit Iran in the next few years. I fully expect that 90% of what I think I know about these countries is CIA propaganda.

This is what I don’t understand. Why is someone like this treated as an investment guru, in spite of the easily available evidence to the contrary? I’m pretty sure that if my track record consisted of fucking up again and again I wouldn’t

I would make an exception for invasive species, but that’s about it

Of course it is. It’s a pure money grab and nothing else. Ban on growing weed is probably unconstitutional too.

Ironically this “death” and “bad leadership” produced the only thing that keeps Microsoft alive today: Azure. It exists only because Gates and Ballmer had the foresight to fund it.

I find farmed salmon to be fatter and tastier. In fact I prefer it to wild salmon, even though it sometimes costs more.

Not merely socialism, communism. I suspect this is why there isn’t a TV series for it yet.

That's not why the USSR fell. It fell because of the oil crisis that crashed the price of oil, and with it, the export revenues of the USSR. That, and geriatric leaders who "ran the country without regaining consciousness". T

Most of us are rational people here. Given that, how likely do you think it is to have no foreign intelligence agents on your payroll unknowingly in a strategic company like this one which has several thousand employees? And I don’t just me
