1. This is already the situation if you don't have technical knowledge in-house and outsource all development. 2. Yes, if you only have few people who know how to use a powerful tool, they might have leverage. 3. The supply-demand mech

This would be huge for IoT. It'll obviously be abused to send "metrics" (a.k.a. private data to be sold) by companies, but still. I hope there's no limit on SIM cards.

This is nice, though I think the use of indices instead of stable identifiers might bite in complex models that undergo changes. I've been toying with the idea that you could specify a point (2D or 3D in some coordinate system, dependi

Indeed. Tit for tat is well known to be an effective strategy. It's almost guaranteed to create one side that feels weaker than the other, while giving that party a way out. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tit_for_ta

In Sweden, you can choose to have your investments in an ISK or KF, which effectively allows you to choose whether you want CGT or wealth tax, for public investments. The current ISK tax is about 3x that of a low tax canton.

Should an engineer be allowed to create a tool that denies its users some requests? We already have many such examples, especially with heavy machinery. For LLMs, specifically: do whatever you want with your product. The market will decide.

Google has little need for more money, so the price will be much higher. OpenAI being a separate entity also means Google's competitors (Microsoft, Amazon) can invest there without looking silly.

No, I meant running separate DC wires. I'm Europe, so it's 240 VAC vs 24/48 VDC. For small devices, 24 V would be useful in that you don't require an isolated SMPS, so cheaper endpoints are possible. Slightly less risk o

I'm renovating a house, and have been considering 24V or 48V DC outlets in a few rooms. Semiconductors become more expensive above ~32V, so 24V might be the sweetspot. However, there's also PoE (24 or 48V!), so maybe that's t

On the flip side, I _think_ there's actually less and less about Epstein visible, so I think WH is winning that war. Or at least successfully postponing battles.
