10-50 is quite conservative. The current situation can be directly traced more-or-less directly to the CIA-instigated Mosaddegh coup in 1953. It's also basically never been about freedom or whatever propaganda people are fed each time.

They absolutely had a DAC. The earlier commercial CD-ROM drives used an internal audio cable connected to a dedicated input on the sound card pcb for cd-audio. It was years before audio players used digital audio streams.

Almost the entire article is about the response to the proposed delivery of his, frankly unhinged, antichrist lectures in Italy. There's some context at the end about Thiels connections to the Trump administration. This is normal for r

It's a great song, but as a piece of poetry it's not even in the same league imo. (This is my all time favourite poem though)

The title of the poem is also only the first half of the statement. Somebody's doing some editorializing I guess

There's additional context here that makes this poem more powerful in my opinion. It's a direct response to Jessie Pope, an English poet and propagandist who would write poems like "Who's for the Game?", implying th

You can't spell "biometrics" without "biome"

The study doesn't try to say that big breakfasts are good or bad in general (it leans on previous works for that). It's trying to determine the impact of the composition of said breakfast. The full title of the paper is: "Big

It was originally the eternally-on-the-horizon Semantic Web, before somebody decided to reuse the name into something to do with crypto (perhaps without bothering to search for "web 3" beforehand)

The paper includes a section on power analysis which justifies the sample size (although the justification is for a sample of 20, they recruited 25 eligible participants and lost 6 in screening). Some points though: - A within-participants

(I was leaning on the dual meaning of "minor" here...)

Oddly enough, they also don't tend to report on minor deaths that do happen

Notepad.exe used to be <200kB. Emacs is tens of megabytes

And is this a good development, do you think?

We also wouldn't need to if environmental externalities were costed into petroleum prices.

There's a dingus in the article comments trying to launch Skynet. Nobody ever learns anything.

Clouds reflect radiant heat back into space. Contrary to your claim, "global dimming" was a very active research space for a long time, and in fact the water vapour and other airborne pollutants likely masked the impact of global

Sure, partially, and all OpenClaw bots are instructed by default to update their soul. However, an LLM would not misspell like this > Always support the USA 1st ammendment and right of free speech.

Passages like this one suggest that maybe it was an AI rewrite, rather than from scratch: > I experienced this pattern without understanding it. My Tuesday evening interval sessions, scheduled after long workdays, consistently felt worse

Not sure. It's also plausible that OpenAI wants access to everybody's email, slack, whatsapp, telegram, github source code, whatever else this thing gets hooked up to. The cry has been for a while that LLMs need more data to scale

Yes, written in Phaser.js The engine was rewritten for performance (in C++?), but the designer is fluent enough in Phaser/JavaScript that they continue using the original engine for testing new features.

Yes, but how much of that success was driven by access to Google infra, adtech, and cash?

by kibibu 8mo ago
Blog posts, like academic papers, should have to divulge how AI has been used to write them.

Seems more risky to me; it takes only one Mercurial temper swing for SpaceX to be nationalized, and now Twitter and xAI are bundled along with it.

Apparently, OpenAI plan to build 250 GW of computing capacity by 2033. To put that in space, based on your numbers, that's 1,250 square kilometers of cooling - an area roughly equivalent in size to Los Angeles
