The numbers would be much higher if the city had any foot traffic [1]. It's dead, small businesses are dead, it's just not safe to walk around too much, everyone keeps it to a minimum and drives between parking lots in 5000lb tank

I think the author should've clarified that this is purely a conversation about the platform plays. There will be 100's of thousands of companies on the application layer, and mini-platform plays that will have your run-of-the-mil

Controversial opinion: Strip out the colonial wealth compounded, Europe may look like South America in terms of Economic and Exportative output over the last 50 years. I have seen no evidence that European states would’ve developed the comf

This is such a weird notion. Waves of immigrants have created some of the biggest most economically productive cities the world has ever seen. If Tokyo goes this route, only greatness lays in its future. The rest is just nostalgia, and that

Yea this was major de-growther vibes to me. A couple of small businesses getting swamped just means you don't have enough small businesses. It's true that generally there aren't enough small businesses. I'd like our pr

Does Google AI Edge have React Native support? Doesn't seem like it? Cactus does though.

Amazing, this is so so useful. Thank you especially for the phone model vs tok/s breakdown. Do you have such tables for more models? For models even leaner than Gemma3 1B. How low can you go? Say if I wanted to tweak out 45toks/s

It depends on which level of government we're talking about. The city governments can only really improve traffic controls. But state and federal governments should absolute zero-in on reducing sprawl and travel distances and those act

by pj_mukh 1y ago
Yea, I don't know I disagree. The denominator should always be just be population. I don't want to use sprawl as some sort of justification for more deaths per capita. Sprawl should be reduced and/or mitigated somehow.

Jokes on them, my city doesn’t enforce cars without license plates very commonly visible [1]. So these plate readers are useless and people are regularly getting murdered on the streets with little to no consequences and to hit and run is t

Also FWIW, this is also not a guide to networking. It’s a guide to attending networking events. Those are not the same things. I wish someone would write a guide to what to do in the 2 weeks after the networking event when inevitably everyo

That's fair, especially around firmware and things like OTA updates and lower level controls/safety you'd want to keep that closer to team. But on the long-tail of autonomy options? Implementing the latest papers, trying cutt

Amazing, pretty nice list! Two quick suggestions: a) some of these definitely look they could be done without hardware or with light hardware support from a staff member? b) if you do a) and are open source completely I bet you don’t even n

Pretty sweet! Don’t have the time (or budget) to directly invest in the hardware but do you have a list of open source “open” software problems you are looking to solve?

Having had been on both sides of this coin, I agree a lot of managers mis-manage meetings. But then there's those engineers who don't show up to meetings and then a month later come to you with a "I don't know how we&#

Like I told another commenter, "I am judging the two companies for what they are, not what they could be." I'm sure Sam Altman wants OpenAI to do everything, but I'm betting most of the projects will die on the vine. Soc

My point exactly. The App Store has no play in back office automation so the comparison doesn’t make sense. AFAICT, OpenAI is already making Billions on back office automation. I just came from a doctors visit where the she was using some m

There is no world in which online gambling beats other back-office automation in pure revenue terms. I'm comfortable saying that OpenAI would probably have to spend more money policing to make sure their API's aren't used b

Wait if an online gambling company uses OpenAI API then hosts it all on AWS, somehow OpenAI is more morally culpable than AWS? Why?

Honest answer*: I think building super intelligence for the company that owns and will deploy the super intelligence in service of tech's original sin (the algorithmic feed) is a 100x worse than whatever OpenAI is doing, save maybe Ope
