I don't see how replacing mobile carriers with space based infrastructure is physically possible.

How can this be true? Should I not worry about margin compression at Google due to heavy cap-ex requirements anymore? Is this temporary because Kagi got a good deal for tokens? Are they paying through their noses for the Google search API c

Then you are kicking full-time streamers like Stodeh, tanking your chances your game has any kind of success.

Meanwhile Linus argued against Debuggers in 2000: https://lwn.net/2000/0914/a/lt-debugger.php3 But then he changed his tune? Even on LLMs...

Compared to painting, software allows you to solve the problem once, then distribute the solution to the problem basically for free. Market frictions cause the problem to be solved multiple times. LLMs learn the solution patterns and apply

LGPL means "gift to the world". The license ensures that any modification/improvements stay a gift to the world. People not being okay with having to share their improvements not being able to use the software is by design. I

I have an Air. Maybe active cooling prevents it from getting too hot. With the Air, the metal body is kind of the heatsink. I can configure my Snapdragon plastic laptop such that the fan doesn't turn on, so the body being metal isn&#x2

This is how opinions differ. IMO plastic is better than aluminium. It is robust (if done right), lighter and doesn't have good thermal conductivity (which makes laptop usage possible, MacBooks can be uncomfortable for lap usage if too

Idea for using the betting/data or other statistics about potential train delay: One gets back 50% if reaching the destination is delayed by more than 2h. Schedule the journey such that this is probable, making the journey 50% cheaper.

The whole moon thing is a pointless and ludicrously expensive dead end. But if one wants to do it, one should choose between the working approaches.

We have the same kind of issue as software engineers. Users come to use with solutions to their problems and want us to implement the solution. At that point the lazy path would be to just do that. If you have bad management, software engin

Just as we had the other day: Competition is not market validation https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=46961726 There is no doubt it is worth a lot in very remote destinations. But by definition there aren't many peop

I do think that was by design. They of course knew that there would be a big chance of it being struck down.

SpaceX valuation is also going to be interesting. Talking about CapEx, SpaceX has deorbiting assets on top of depreciating ones. And without Starlink the space launch market size is pretty small.

Not a solution, but could be one of the problems we should tell the "LLMs will replace software engineers" crowd to implement. Maybe then they'll notice that without Open Source training data it won't be able to solve th

The marketing game is already moving to game LLMs. Somehow you have to get what you want to have into the training data or the context window. Currently it is probably just mostly quantity that does the trick w.r.t. training data. So e.g. s

Theoretically there is regulation now that should allow an app like this again here in the EU. Currently it is in the "malicious compliance" phase.

The correct analogy is IMO the railway mania. LLM research will go back to (government funded) research labs with government funded supercomputers. All AI investment will need to be written off. Running the LLMs the research generated will

Luckily we have a digital id system that would preserve your privacy in Germany, so you'd not have to scan your face. All the social media site would get would be "is over 18". I concede that you'd have to trust that the

Maybe mention it somewhere as a limitation, so it is not used for use-cases where listing is important and there are many objects? Listing was IMO a problem with minio as well, but maybe it is not that important because it seems to have suc

The listing is perhaps in line with the first two "s". It seems it always iterates through all files, reads the "meta.json", then filters?

I get the Visa card for free from my bank whereas I have to pay for the Girocard (German alternative). Presumably the bank gets a cut of the fee.

This won't work if you are on the shorter end of the yield curve. Obviously when investors say "cash" they mean money market fund at least. Now people holding actual cash will have problems.
