I'm confused why The Road is said to be such great literature. Half the book is " Kid: Daddy, I'm scared. Dad: Don't be scared. " What's really funny is how it has become an all purpose meme for a bad futur

It's kind of like Burning Man in that regard. If you're overly sensitive and can't handle something that is in no way a first class resort experience, and where you have to bring all your own food and water, you're not g

I think you mean trademark tarnishment instead of dilution. The act of associating a trademarked product with something distasteful or disagreeable is considered a tortious offense called tarnishment. Tarnishment is when you use a Dallas C

The net effect of this Apple "privacy" stuff is to make it very hard for small niche businesses with a limited budget to advertise effectively. There were tons of startup CPG brands like Dollar Shave Club that popped up during th

Llama 13B writes pretty decent fictional prose that only needs some light editing and it's not censored. You just have to know how to prompt it in the first person.

What if it's much more boring and sad than that? Like we're a contained invasive species. They're peaceful, and they respect our rights to this planet cause we evolved here but they're scared of us getting off the plane

They are probably trying to reduce "misinformation" by removing most of the web from their index. With AI, they could just ask bard, "does this website contain any information that would be considered misinformation?" an

They should pay top government officials multi-million dollar salaries like they do in Singapore. Then they could attract top talent to those jobs and they wouldn't have to engage in all these questionable side hustles.

There are a lot of public employees and contractors who would have no way to live in the bay area if it wasn't for the $300 million a year homeless budget for a few thousand homeless. They need those homeless to provide justification

The wavelength is very important too. 808nm is damaging to the eyes for example, but has wound healing properties when applied directly to injuries[1]. This kind of stuff is a great example of the vast trove of interesting research that n

The 4g is in the hotspot that you're connecting to via wifi from the mini-computer. That way you don't have baseband firmware exploits to deal with on the linux machine like you would now with a traditional android phone. 4G fir

Podcasting is a unique business. It's the talk radio of the internet. In 1996, the Telecommunications Act [1] passed and that allowed ClearChannel to buy every radio station in the country and consolidate it up into a boring homogenou

If the brain is like a computer, how do humans even solve the halting problem? Maybe it's because humans feel anxiety at the unproductive passing of time while computers will just do what they're doing forever.

You have an inflated sense of your own ability. You think you are Notch or the guy who did Plenty of Fish and think you can do everything yourself. You're not that good. You need other people to help you. Get other people involved

I think HP has all the patents on these. Maybe when their patents expire some company that can actually release a product will make good use of them instead of having a business model consisting of bricking printers that use off-brand ink.

Check the Google when you make a new acronym brand. If there are no significant search results and you can pronounce it, and get the domain, congratulations, you have a brand. Might have to be 5 letters or longer though.

Lambdalabs used to have spot instances for GPUs and now they are completely sold out. Even vast.ai hardly has any A100 instances. We are starting to see paperclip maximizer economics start with GPUs since they are so damned useful.

I think the problem with AI being everywhere and ubiquitous is that AI is the first technology in a very long time that requires non-trivial compute power. That compute power costs money. This is why you only get a limited number of messag
