The point is that you can force the respective of a giant or an ant if you so choose. Using two cameras I had a time lapse of a fog coming in where you could see the 3d structure becuase they were at two different streets looking out. Like

And people obscure this fact by talking about spending controlled by XYZ instead of total federal spending. Who cares that it's an act of congress that funds a given project instead of a regular budget? Your money is still being spent.

If I was sending it as a business email I'd edit it before sending it off. But the first draft saved me between 10 to 30 minutes of trying to get out of the headspace of "this is a fucking disaster and I need to look for a new job

No. I'd already spend 30 Min looking at how to solve it myself. The search on perplexity was a hail marry before I started calling handymen.

I fixed the hinge in my oven by giving perplexity.com the make and problem. I saved an hour on the phone calling people to organise a visit some time in the next week. Maybe you should stop using the Ai slop tools that don't work?

There is a huge gap in the market, I'd say between capital investment of $50,000 and $5,000,000, where a ton of ideas which can make 20%+ ROI per year once mature live. But because they will never hyper scale they can't be finance

Because is the bitter lesson were true no one would be wasting their time with convolutions or attention blocks. You'd just replace them with the general tensor that allows every hyper relation possible between all points instead.

I don't know. Google has some great papers but a lot more hot air. The best thing to do when you see a google paper is ignore it until someone you trust more writes a second paper about it.

It's a tough one, I've never seen a book that actually covers the _bare_ minimum of the maths you need for ML. The little learner comes close but I'd only really suggest that to people who already know the maths because the

I mean yes, but without knowing the maths then knowing how to optimize the maths is a bit useless? At the very least you should know enough linear algebra that you understand scalar, vector and matrix operations against each of the others.

Which is my point. You need a ton of specialized knowledge to use compute effectively. If we had infinite memory and infinite compute we'd just throw every problem of length n to a tensor of size R^(n^n). The issue is that we don'
