This is ignoring the utilization factor though. Both Google and OpenAI have to overprovision servers for the worst case simultaneous users. So 1.71 GW average doesn't tell use the maximum instantaneous GW capacity of Google -- if we pu

Everything talks about settlement to the 'authors'; is that meant to be shorthand for copyright holders? Because there are a lot of academic works in that library where the publisher holds exclusive copyright and the author holds

I have nothing intelligent to say about the blockchain aspect, but this is one of the most illegible websites I've encountered recently. What is the purpose of the crazy spaghetti text background and random low-contrast color palette?

I think the "low voltage MOS switch" is just a roundabout way of saying MOSFET, which is very common in power electronics generally.

These models still seem to struggle with getting repeated patterns right. Others have mentioned piano keys; I've noticed they also almost always fail to generate a valid Go board.

Really interesting to see the diffusion model solve the puzzles in an iterative way, which feels more similar to how I (and probably most humans) solve them. Outwardly, it seems to be limited by unmasking too few tokens per round, even when

A fabric interior? That's one I didn't see coming. Seems like it'd be harder to clean.

Interestingly it seems to draw the bike's seat too (around line 34) which then gets covered by the pelican.

Cool concept! Ran into a few bugs.. It seems to think I'm in the middle of an adventure (the little book icon correctly identifies a character and chapter etc) and is prompting for my action, but there's no actual story text being

Fun, but like others have said, felt somewhat easy. Or really, it feels like the gameplay is too short. Maybe you can shrink down a word, then replace it with a longer synonym or something, and repeat? That way you get a couple rounds of ga

I'll add to this, there's no reason to buy simple syrup! You can make it in a mug in the microwave in 30s, and it'll hold in the fridge for a while. And the only counterpoint is pineapple juice, which you should just buy in t

You actually don't need to actively supply current -- it just keeps going round and round, and you can't "short" it out because the path of least resistance will always be the superconducting winding. You also can't

From the imagery, they seem to be focused on earthmoving. Some cursory googling indicates an excavator operator can cost on the order of $1000/day (to the end customer, presumably less to an owner-operator). For some loose context, a s

Sites like the New Yorker have had pay walls since before LLMs entered the scene, and moreover they purposely make their content available freely to those web crawlers that are supposedly robbing them (hence why archive links work).
