   Here's an example of an 8x H100 machine - look at the tech specs: https://lambdalabs.com/deep-learning/servers/hyperplane 6x 3000W PSUs in a 3x3 redundant config. So 9000 watts total. So at least 240v x 50A.

   Perhaps it makes sense to pay extra to be able to put extra strain on something (laptop, car, xyz) while it's covered under a manufacturer warranty, however after such a warranty period ends any such feature should be unlocked.

    Try getting thousands of organizations to agree on something and then implement it successfully... The complexity of the problem far surpasses that of the technical standards themselves.

    Bluetooth is quite amazing in general. What it is capable of with extremely low energy usage is just mind blowing really. I think the main reason it gets a bad rap (e.g. vs WiFi) is that the radio link is conflated with all of the messiness

    I hope Elon opens the firehose back up. I would also like to see a return of the tweet count API, and reasonable pricing for Twitter Premium API calls. Twitter premium API pricing right now is ~$0.25/call. How about $0.01/call?

    An important thing to note is that the _worst_ part about Docker for Mac is the lousy disk IO performance for shared drives. This can be almost fully mitigated by using NFS mounts instead[0]. In general Docker for Mac is far from ideal - pa
