When you are puzzled about something, the first step is to find out why something works like it does. :) With green cards, the government is concerned about permanent residents being dependent on the state if a company ceases to exist or fa

What's a realistic way to run this locally or a single expensive remote dev machine (in a vm, not through API calls)?

As an exercise, please try to do this at some point and report back!

Does this somehow not apply for cartel violence that spills over the border, the same cartels that have been declared as terrorist organizations ? I am finding it difficult to imagine it'll be any different for terrorists of a differen

The folks who could be trained to build such stuff are being either deported or harassed for daring to come to the US for studying.

It has been inevitable for more that three years, I'm sure you'll be proven right any day now!

There are multiple interesting bits, worth watching the whole thing at some point. Something that stuck with me was that dude had an uncle that worked at a bolt factory down the road, and now there is literally no way to source domestically

We don't even produce things like bolts, screws, and springs. If we suddenly had to, it would take billions of dollars and several months to spin up any real capacity.

These are orthogonal problems. Getting into this war was stupid. Being unable to win it is also pretty bad.

Can you give some specific examples of what light industry we are great at?

At the heart of this is the fact that America has lost the capability to manufacture anything at scale. High tech interceptors and missiles and aircraft carriers are great, but with China's help these are outnumbered by three (soon to

You're arguing for government enforced de-anonymization while at the same time using an anonymous internet account :)

You don't have to automate all of it, just whatever parts you do not consider fun so you can get to the fun parts with less friction. But I suppose it depends on what you consider fun. I genuinely know people who love to meticulously w

The premise is wrong. Plenty of ICs 'enamored' with AI. If you are not, you either have a boring job or do not have any ideas that are worth prototyping asynchronously. Or haven't tried AI in the last ~3 months.

Yes, I agree this is the use case. Since the user here is not paying for it directly, the manufacturer does not have any incentive to list prices anywhere.

You have seen plenty of third party GB300 DGX workstations?

by fooker 7mo ago
Workstations above 50k are not that uncommon. Older xeon based workstations easily reach that number.

by fooker 7mo ago
I don't mean the small GB10s. If you try to find the pricing of the GB300 towers even on the manufacturer sites, you'll see that it's not listed for any of the six or so models.

by fooker 7mo ago
It's hilarious that not a single one of these has pricing listed anywhere public. I don't think they expect anyone to actually buy these. Most companies looking to buy these for developers would ideally have multiple people share

The typical inference workloads have moved quite a bit in the last six months or so. Your point would have been largely correct in the first half of 2025. Now, you're going to have a much better experience with a couple of Nvidia GPUs.

We have had mach 5 missiles for about 60-80 years now, that's not what the novelty is.
