I disagree. The current adoption woes are exactly because IPv6 is so different from IPv4. Everyone who tries it out learns the hard way that most of what they know from IPv4 doesn't apply. A less ambitious IPv4 is exactly what we ne

Not a gamer, but it seems like super competitive games should be played on locked down consoles not custom-built PCs where the players have full control? Also, for more casual play, don't players have rankings so that you play with oth

Hmm, maybe I wasn't following the thread very well? Many people like to discredit Bitcoin by saying it's only worth is what people decide it is. If that's not what you were trying to do then I apologize.

I hadn't heard of this. Do they just allow the gas to go into the atmosphere instead? I've always heard that's worse than burning it

Same with all money. Please research more before parroting this argument. You are not the first person to think of it.

So many of us see an LLM spit out a bunch of code in a at a very high rate and we're amazed. It is really impressive, but what we're forgetting is that the amount of code and the speed at which code is written has never been the b

Businesses fail long before all their customers fail. If Nvidia's sales decline and they lose their billions of dollars in investments at the same time you better believe their stock will tank. I'm not sure how you decided th

"There are lots of examples of joint ventures, partnerships, alliances, investment and mergers and acquisitions..." And the deals Nvidia are making are different from all of those. Buying OpenAI stock so that OpenAI can buy Nvidi

This is a much tighter circle than any of us should be comfortable with. There are some horrible examples of companies investing in their costumers and then losing big when those customers fail.

We should all be worried. When a company invests in it's customers it is extra exposed to the risk of that customer going under. If OpenAI fails, Nvidia loses sales and loses the money it invested in OpenAI. I imagine it's a sim

This is a temporary problem driven by the AI bubble. It's going to hurt until the bubble pops, but when that happens other things are going to hurt

I agree, TFA seems to make a lot of assumptions. I kinda think they are correct just because they support the narrative that everyone involved is carefully taking care of their own, but it sure seems like it could go other ways.

Read the article and where it talks about accelerated vesting of Groq shares for both the leadership team that goes to Nvidia and the regular employees that stay at Groq. Is that even guaranteed? It's not an IPO or an acquisition, so

This makes me a little sad. There's an ideal built into the Internet, that it has no borders, that individuals around the world can connect directly. Blocking an entire geographic region because of a few bad actors kills that. I see

And why did we abandon this model? Also, computer games existed at the same time as consoles. People were playing games loaded from floppy disks on computers back in the early 1980's
