What you talked about is not a Texas grid problem, but a local problem. The Texas grid itself is very reliable. > Also in 2021 210 people died. This is a huge deal. This wasn't just a little outage. Yes, a rare storm knocked out pow

Texas loses power one time for a week and the redditors will never let it go. Wild how this is still a cringe joke so many years later.

It is similar enough to our modern notions of civilization, while being a simpler time. Also, lots of fantasy stuff is written in medieval-style settings, which means lots of fiction meshes well with the environment of a medieval renfest.

Honestly, log off the internet and touch grass. Things have always been like this, and most things that happen are inconsequential to your average person. Like, who cares if he says Tylenol is bad for pregnant women? Just do whatever you wa

Probably because you can't reliably predict how much compute this will lead to. Power generation is probably the limiting factor in intelligence explosion.

Even with expensive vehicles and hardware? Plus they are revenue sharing with the host Uber/Lyft platforms. Feels very unlikely. I think they will need to bring car cost down to hit break even.

I am getting so unbelievably tired of this smug comment. It reeks of reddit spam. We all know trains would be nice. Unless you have some plan to rework our government into something that will allow for innovation here, then I prefer to see

The whole EV market is growing and everyone is racing to buy one before incentives run out. The article is framed as a hit piece and even has political statements in it. But here is an exact quote from the article: "Sales of new EVs ju

Misleading title. There is no proof at all, just speculation in this post. From the last paragraph: "We don’t have solid proof, but it strongly suggests that X is secretly shadow banning İmamoğlu. I don’t think Elon Musk will change th

RAG is just finding the right context for your question. Embedding based RAG is fast and conceptually accurate, but very poor for high complexity tasks. Agentic RAG is higher quality, but much higher compute and latency cost. But often wort

I work in this field, so I can answer. Embeddings are great at basic conceptual similarity, but in quality maximalist fields and use cases they fall apart very quickly. For example: "I want you to find inconsistencies across N document

Try to click the author name. It doesn't work. This isn't a real author or a real site. HN is turning into reddit, where people look at the title, come to the comments, and post if they agree with the title or not.

I just went from a Z Fold 5 to a Z Fold 7 and I hate it for this exact reason. Z Fold 6 and earlier were slim, one handed use phones when folded, small tablet when opened. Now it's just a regular phone, and a medium tablet when I open

Good! I'm glad they are just giving us small updates. Opus 4 just came out, if you have small improvements, why not just release them? There's no downside for us.

Much like others, this is my stack (or o1-pro instead of Gemini 2.5 Pro). This is a big reason why I use aider for large projects. It allows me to effortlessly combine architecture models and code writing models. I know in Cursor and others

Doesn't this defeat the entire purpose of doing online classes for fun? You use an AI to look everything up, write in your tone, and be done in a fraction of the time? So you're paying for online classes to learn, then paying $200

AI will eventually replace programmers, but programmers with AI will replace everything else first. If you know how to code and have an AI assistant, you can first automate the rest of white color work.

I think there's likely lots of potential culprits. If the race is to make a machine god, states will pay countless billions for an advantage. Money won't mean anything once you enslave the machine god. https://wccftech.
