Here is what I do not understand about these kinds of dynamics: Are they not the perfect way to encourage the creation of energy storage companies and technologies? It seems like there is a massive opportunity to purchase energy when it is

This is my impression as well. Here is an example of the engineering capabilities required to train the modern models: https://github.com/facebookresearch/metaseq/blob/main/projec... [PDF] It's a 11

That does not mean the second best time is to start now though! The second best time to start could be never, assuming that renewables and storage will become significantly cheaper and more efficient in the next decades, which does not seem

I really enjoy this one: https://app.electricitymaps.com/zone/GB It shows energy sources for all of the countries in Europe on a map, import/export, prices and CO2 intensity.

Or let us provide unit tests for generated code and automatically tell the AI to fix the code until the code passes the tests we provided.

I was able to use chatgpt for debugging code. I just gave it the line of code, the error, and it explained the error and how to fix it to me. Insane. Imagine once this is integrated into IDEs - it’s like a super sophisticated integrated tea

I have spent countless hours on this on my unlocked PS Vita... it runs very smoothly, and the controls are great. Really scratches an itch that few games do. Man does it get difficult at the later stages though...

Well, alternatively, everyone else in the world is paying for me to have cheap imported goods, especially the people I poorer countries who will suffer the worst from climate change. It seems fairer that I should bear the cost.

Cool! I wonder if it could be run backwards, to identify the users on hackernews with the most unique voices.

The same can be said for airlines, which are often worth less in total than their loyalty programs: https://thehustle.co/10052020-airline-loyalty-programs/ Of course, these loyalty programs would be worthless without t

I am fascinated by the number of layers of abstractions built on top of each other in these financial products... Bankers seem to rival programmers in their ability to stack abstractions on top of each other until it is impossible to unders

Interesting, I took the exact opposite from Sakos post above. As I understand it, he argues that Microsoft buying Activision will not have a significant impact on the landscape of video games due to the large number of studios, thereby disa

I do something similar to boil eggs: 1) Put eggs in pot, cover with water. 2) Put pot with lid on stove on full heat. 3) Wait for the water to boil, then turn off the heat. 4) Wait 6 minutes (for eggs with slightly soft interior) 5) Cover e

Back in my XDA developer days I think the preferred terms were soft-brick (that can be recovered by reflashing the device) versus hard-brick (that puts the device in an unrecoverable state)

I like this! I feel like there are a lot of HCI challenges to make a screen less phone that is useful and intuitive though. Pebble tried something similar with the pebble core, not sure what happened to it: https://www.techradar.

That’s such a fun idea! Load81 might be of interest for this as well, it’s a commodore-like console interface for Lua, made by antirez: https://github.com/antirez/load81

Yes! This could be so exciting. Given that starlink satellites are much more numerous and much closer than GPS satellites, I wonder what the lower bounds are for possible accuracy. Imagine a globally available positioning system with 1cm ac

I really feel this. For me, there is nothing more exhilarating than seeing a project going from just an idea to adding features and then having a somewhat working product. Some of the most fun weeks of my life have been focused on spending
