Isn't that "waste" heat still warming the planet? Isn't turning a cold planet into a warm planet a good thing and therefore the "waste" heat is still "used" for something useful?

Let me try to wrap my head around this: Say there is a completely static, black planet. All sunlight that hits it is turned into heat which is dissipated into the universe. Nothing moves on that planet. The static black inhabitants of the p

Thinking about energy usage always puzzles me. I'm not even sure if driving a car from one city to another really uses energy. For example, let's look at it this way: The energy from the sun is heating earth. When we use some of i

This reminds me of the discussions some years ago whether one should invest in an SSD when buying a new laptop or stay with a spinning disk. Nowadays, barely any new laptops are released without an SSD. When it comes to electric versus petr

Is it the same route every time? If not, they might take harder and harder routes as FSD gets better. Making it look like there is less progress than there really is.

What I would find really interesting: If someone drove the same route with every version of FSD and counted the interventions. That would give a nice chart over time from which one could see the progress. Is there anything online similar to

Any suggestions for a fitness tracker (steps, sleep) which can be used without an Android/iOS app? If it is possible to access the data from a Linux machine - that would be perfect.

Hmm... I would think the on-premise search for companies falls within the "less than 1% for everybody else" category I mentioned in regards to search. The revenue of Elastic Search is less than 0.5% of Google's revenue.

Do LLM providers with smaller / less capable LLMs still have a USP or will it be like what we witnessed in the search space, where the #1 company has more than 90% market share, #2 has less than 5% market share and everyone else less t

And the average across all 2-3 year old cars is 5%. It does not tall us much unless we would also get some information on how expensive it is to fix the problem. A 5% problem rate can be worse than a 15% rate if the cars in the 5% category

When you click on the name, you get the "Pannenstatistik". Which sounds like it is how many cars insured by ADAC had a problem on the road. The chart on the "TÜV-Report" seems to be what percentage of cars turned out to

End of next year. So in theory I could 10x the number of data points. But its one of the more annoying experiments to let a coin decide if you have to take another walk :) So I'm not sure how often I will do that. I'm pretty convi

Is "take a measurement every morning" about sleep quality or about something else? Is it even possible to sleep with the H10 strap?
556.
by mg 3y ago
Good point. Is there a standardized way to measure sleep quality? Or are the numbers one measures only compareable as long as one uses the same device? I would be interested in suggestions which watches measure the HRV / Sleep quality

Maybe because of less physical activity? Since 2020 I have manually tracked 35093 data points about my life [1]. And the one parameter that correlates most with my sleep time is how many steps I took during the day. The median number of ste

One of my favorite Munger quotes is "The more you shout it out, the more you pound it in". Meaning that if you talk with a strong opinion on a subject, then it is hard for you to change your mind by thinking it through further and

That could be interesting. A recursive cat, so to say. The problem would be this: In the picture at hand, the big cat is rather simple. Just a portrait of a smiling cat. While the 9 smaller cats are doing all kinds of poses to adjust to the

I had a similar idea early last year and also dabbled with a checkerboard approach. Here a cat is made from 9 paintings of cats in the style of popular painters: https://twitter.com/marekgibney/status/1521500594577

To me it seems that every task done by humans will be supported or even replaced by AI. I already see it happening, just 2 years into the new LLM area: Programming, designing, writing, research, driving. How could that not result in a doubl

You don't expect the number of use cases for software to double with AI?

by mg 3y ago
What are yours? In the US, software is 10% of GDP. And with growing usefulness, that should increase.

by mg 3y ago
The world's GDP is about a hundred trillion dollars. Growing a about 5% per year. If that will continue, it will be 250 trillion in 20 years. In 20 years, what part of it will be AI revenue? 10%? 20%? 30%? At 20% that would be a 50 tri
