States incorporate in Delaware for a reason. Isn’t Elon’s move just because his pay ask was rejected in Delaware? It wasn’t a move based on fundamentals. I don’t see why other companies would do this.

Order of magnitude means they’re going to take 20 times longer to get to the 4. So maybe on the order of 40-60 months from this point.

The cost is fixed for me at least at this point so why would I choose the inferior version.

I did about 100 days on Duolingo and from knowing no Spanish at all was able to converse in very broken Spanish to people at bars in Spain. I mean long 2 hour conversations where I could for the most part understand what they were saying an

Yeah, I’m aware. I was assuming some sort of aligned starting state with atoms whose configurations were perfectly known but I guess that’s not really possible.

Is it an absolutely perfect simulation? Like would we know the exact future of those hundreds of atoms in perpetuity?

Oh wow. Maybe that can be a new scale measure of technological capability based on how much of reality we can perfectly simulate.

I wonder if we’ll get to a computational space where we can completely simulate every atom in a small closed system. Are we there yet? Can you simulate at the atomic scale and get a perfect representation of reality or do we have to try and

But no one cares about 3.5. It’s an order of magnitude worse than 4. An order of magnitude is a lot harder to catch up with.

How did you build drawers without a planer or atleast a jointer? Did to buy pre surfaced wood or spend hours with a bench plane?

Can someone explain to me how this happens? Don’t law enforcement get suspicious when you get sent to the same house, incorrectly say after the third time? Why would they go back 44 more times?

It’s marginal compared to the change a poverty stricken Chinese that was starving to death went through. Also people are very resistant to moving backwards in any sort of way, I can see intense opposition to even a small reduction in qualit

If you’re somewhat rural the contractors just don’t have the experience to do it so they try to quote you out of the decision. I had to shop around until I found a contractor that had done this before and I was able to get a whole home heat

The place to sleep isn’t the station. There are shelters, rehab centers and mental health facilities. Minimum wage jobs are easy to get. There are plenty of social workers that will help you get set up with these things.

Sure, but if you’ve ever been around high tension mental cables before you’ll realize you need a huge pair of balls to cut those. It’s not safety protocols, it’s fear that it might cut you in half.

Plenty of ways to monetize that. They could use inline ads. They could insert a relevant ad after a response. If they go evil, they could predispose the LLM to make product suggestions for paying clients.
