I find that Taleb’s take on this phenomenon makes the most sense. He argues that due to the internet, everything is now connected and this causes massive power laws. It would be much better if things were decoupled a bit again because distr

Sounds really cool. I do see one problem though. Doesn’t Microsoft have the worst security reputation of at least all cloud providers but maybe even all of big tech?

> I'd agree here. Most doctors have not really caught up to the giant data science revolution we have going on. Well, compared to psychology researchers, the medical researchers are doing pretty well on data science. I‘m not joking.

Everyone keeps going on about ARM, but isn’t the difference mostly memory latency and throughput? Less waiting for memory means less wasted clock cycles. And probably also hardcore engineering in choosing the right tradeoffs? The x86 "

I can highly recommend listening the full interview at Acquired. I found that Jensen sounded refreshingly honest in the interview. YouTube: https://youtu.be/y6NfxiemvHg?si=FpfBRSVNRQk8ebjb Spotify: https://spotif

Increases in the levels of abstractions are necessary. The human brain doesn’t become much more capable over the years, but the number of available tools does so you need abstractions to allow for focus. I don’t see why this makes the futur
