I agree, but the German one is also pretty dodgy: Basically pay the rents of the old generation from a share of the working one. It's already coming apart due to demographic change and the next few years will be disastrous. If there&#x

So how evolution works is that a feature needs to have an evolutionary advantage, but the specimen must also not die. So there are two adversarial pressures here, carefully balancing each other in a mammal species that already has one of th

Yep. Most of the time, fire is so slow you can escape it easily in case you're aware, alert and awake. Since pushing hard for fire alarms and mandatory retrofit obligation, Germany was able to reduce fire deaths by almost 50% (study in

Honestly, if I were OpenAI, I'd just go different directions at once, and it looks like exactly what they're doing. Dall-E was a standalone experiment before, and now it's reintegrated into the core product. It's complet

If you have to fight for a 50$ book, you‘re probably just at the wrong place. That being said, some developers wanted to test Notion internally, so they got an informal account with a credit card. Turns out they built an important overview

I see lots of hate here for people looking for technical cofounders and bringing up unrealistic expectations into the other side, so I just wanted to offer a counterpoint as a "casted" technical cofounder. I've had an incredi

Far. As in, really, really far. We started out with Postgres because it was just the simple and sensible option for a production prototype, and when somebody came around telling me we need something more scalable recently, I calculated that

Spot on for me, but there's a different argument at play: At the beginning of the OSX on x86 times, Apple had an OS with a stellar user experience, but the hardware was just completely overpriced, so Hackintosh made complete sense. Fas

And honestly, pre product-market fit my advice would be not even coding, but iterating in an extremely scrappy way (read: Google Sheets, Jupyter Notebooks, no-/low code, handwritten invoices) until you have people paying for your produ

There’s a brand new hybrid quantization for Mixtral out that uses 4b for shared neurons and 2b for experts, which does not bleed much perplexity, but fits it into a 32G machine. Haven’t had it in hand yet and no link here on mobile, but can
