Advertisement Campaigns are based on Returns on Investments not on accuracy. For example, lets say a "Pet Insurance" company makes on average $400 profit for each customer they obtain. It makes sense for them to spend $200 to acqu

It seems unlikely that there has ever been someone making a prediction, never telling anyone about the prediction and then living his life as if he never made the prediction. I predict that Donald Trump will claim election fraud in states h

Both have a goal of high reliability. They are both solving the problem of running you application on a single server.

Yes, Hard drives can die, power supply can die, another user can write an infinite loop and it will not kill your terminal. Not a big deal today, but in the 80s hard drives died more frequently and a bank losing just 5 seconds of transactio

I worked on them a bit while at IBM. You can open a terminal and come back in a month and it will still be there. Unlikely kunernetes where containers regularly go down. You can obviously achieve high reliability with Kunernetes, but you&#x

I'm not aware of the far right being labeled as woke before. Generally they are called conspiracy theorists, or MAGA. I don't think they are generally virtue signaling either. When they say Trump had the election stolen they seem

Musk has been very influential in making woke virtue signaling online less rewarding. Of course the biggest virtue signalers are going to leave Twitter and look for other places to virtue signal.

For those that don't know he played himself in the show as an acting coach, but all of his advice was related to how to get multiple meals from the catering at filmings.

My best guess is that you want a supervisor GPT-4 like LLM planning the task and a lower level on-prem LLM doing the tasks like driving from one location to another or grasping an item. Sending every frame to GTP-4 right now is way too slow

I find it ironic that you assume the person who owned 9 shares brought the suit actually felt harmed by the inappropriate use of the word independent and doesn't have some other undisclosed interest in regards to filing suit.

Im not suggesting that all rules should be removed. I'm suggesting that if the laws and rules exist to protect shareholders, the courts should take shareholders' expectations into account. None of us who owned TSLA in 2018 looked

Which is why people are talking about moving companies out of Delaware. Why would an executive want to work at a company if after he achieves amazing results, his compensation can Ben clawed back, due to a missing one sentence disclaimer on

Yes, if you define the role you are hiring for as one where the applicant would have failed science in high school you will be hiring the most qualified applicant if they failed science in high school. But how is failing science in high sch

It seems like a lot of the most liberal people left Twitter and some of them ended up here. They still believe that progressivism is calling people racist that disagree with policies like this. I have hope that things will change though, on

In general middle aged women read unrealistic romance novels because they enjoy the fantasy and in general are never going to be with anyone that is as good looking and romantic as the men in those books. I don't shame them for doing t

So why is it ok for you to satisfy your desires with devices instead of with real human contact in a relationship? There just isn't a clear argument for where the line should be drawn.

by gitfan86 3y ago
Like all technologies, there will be risks and negative outcomes. Just look at books. At some point a married woman read a romance book that depicted an unrealistic male character who wanted nothing but to satisfy any desire of the woman in

I would strongly suggest not blindly trusting "peer reviewed" and "top journals", especially on topics that are not easily provable. "We conclude that despite widespread use of narcotic drugs in hospitals, the devel

Correlation isn't causation. The highest risk factor of Long Covid is probably frequency of hearing about it from social media. Much like Fibromyalgia.

by gitfan86 3y ago
So if the real problems people are having "do not have a single simple cause", why are we calling it "Long Covid"? The name implies that there is a known cause, and the diagnosis IS Long Covid.

Agreed, that this book was written with a target audience in mind. (People who loved the blind side movie) But, I also wonder how much of this is Lewis trying to avoid legal culpability. If he knew that the whole thing was a total scam and

The definition that the CDC created backs up my statement. "Long COVID is not one condition. It represents many potentially overlapping entities, likely with different biological causes and different sets of risk factors and outcomes.&

It will keep going up until a Wall St analyst puts in an insane price target like $5000. Then it will be time to sell. It should follow AMZN from the dotcom bubble.

I sold my GOOG shares from 2005 to buy NVDA last year and definitely agree with the article. The thing is that Wall St doesn't understand any of the technical details and will just see huge profit growth from NVDA and drive the price c

DEI and diversity hiring incentives are much less popular due to Harvard's statements on free speech and also the supreme Court decision regarding the legality of not hiring white/Asian people due to their race.

Sure, but you can just ignore that, or tell them to sue you because the debt isn't valid. They are not going to take you to court and if they put it in your credit report you can dispute that as well. The only thing they can actually t

Electrical output, number of units shipped can be measured. How do you measure the output of a DEI department? Now assume those people automated their jobs with Chat GPT. How would you measure the change in productivity?
