My experience is I did a systems administration internship and i had to play with all the services, it taught me a ton about tools and layers below where I usually operate (Go APIs and backend services). If you're just wanting to get s

I'd rather collect $14 an hour on unemployment than earn $18 exacerbating the ageism I'll face when the market picks up.

I'm not. But what I'm referring to here is the goal of having American produced chips. If TMSC wants to produce in America, and a foreign government wants to foot the bill, then what would be the issue?

Also not an accountant, but i believe you two are talking differently about gaap and nongaap profit. The latter can immediately write of R&D, where as GAAP has rules around deprecation of investments.

To answer your question, yes. I really enjoyed this book, and it sounds you might too The Evolution of Useful Things: How Everyday Artifacts-From Forks and Pins to Paper Clips and Zippers-Came to be as They are Paperback – February 1, 1994

I think they are only an asynchronous invocation in that case though? The reason they do that is they dont want your connections holding a port for 15 minutes.

There are lots of kinds of containerization too btw, if i'm not mistaken AWS has a lot of investment in Firecracker too https://firecracker-microvm.github.io/

I never had a case where cold starts mattered because either 1) it was the kind of service where cold starts intrinsically didnt matter, or 2) we generally had > 1 req/15mins meaning we always had something warm. 3) Also you can pay

Their quoted limits on AWS seem quite off. > As of 2024, they can only use 3 CPUs (6 threads) and 10 GB of memory Actually you get 1vCPU (eg a hyperthread) per 1769MB of memory[1] [1] - https://docs.aws.amazon.com/lambda&#

This plus because you can dockerize and run on lambda, essentially you can run most anything these days (most things i've encountered are reasonably easy to dockerize, i'm sure there are exceptions, but in the main easy)

Yeah on further reflection and 24 hours to think on it. What I'm describing is covered by antitrust. Many players are not allowed to collude. If a player gets too big it faces antitrust / monopoly issues.

> Computers and other gadgets always start out as toys of the rich But is this a function of moore's law? I have to say that OpenAI's training costs seems to be growing exponentially, not declining exponentially.

I'm curious about the presumed language. When we say "She has cancer" we mean "a cancer". (Hopefully she doesn't have all of them!). Why couldn't the sentence "AI will cure cancer" mean "a

First off. I dont like collusion or rental pricing software that colludes across companies. However, now this means really big companies can use their own internal data to get advantages that littler players cannot. I also do not like laws

You make great points/caveats to what I was identifying. BJJ (rolling particularly) helped for a subset of normal work stresses as opposed to chronic stresses bordering on traumas :)

Yeah, I dont think any one would start a company with no incentives, but I do think the existing capitalized ones will have no choice. Once you've built a factory, you have a sunk cost and need to extract whatever you can out of the ca

If the company ultimately has no need for workers, then it's competitors won't either. And as they compete on price there will be no reason for the goods not to sink to the raw ingredient price + cost of capital. With the hypothet

I look at Go like Python + multicore world. (and nice to have speed from compilation vs JIT). And in my career that's almost exactly what we've used it for: rewriting higher load services from Python (2.7 at the time) to Go.
