That sounds lovely, but it also depends on if any of that memory will make it to the consumer space. Other recent posts imply the ram shortage could be for a couple years.

Another problem is that fuel taxes are a reasonably equitable means of paying for the roads, and EVs don't have that -- the closest would be vehicle miles * weight or some such.

Hopefully the arms race will balance out with improved AI image detection, but I can see how that will never be guaranteed to be reliable.

Apparently Apple invested ~ $50B to advance China's manufacturing capabilities. As robotics is the future of manufacturing (Apple was all in on that in the early days of manufacturing the Mac in Fremont), it seems that it would have be

Being that the recommended max temperature for hot tubs is 104F that could be an issue. Hot tubs are definitely more pleasurable than saunas, and if it comes "close enough" I'd be fine with that.

Dr. Rhonda Patrick has been beating the drum for saunas for a long time, and she's reported that a hot tub can be equivalent or better: https://x.com/foundmyfitness/status/1955294334535995850?lang...

China is actually working to make China better for the inhabitants of China. The US is working to keep the oligarchs happy.

Not just that, but Andreessen got rich due to the work that came from CERN and he was working at NCSA developing Mosaic, which turned into Netscape. That wealth was completely the result of work funded by the government, and the resulting i

It is, but think about how advances in computing technology have made that power available over time. A Raspberry Pi is almost 5 times more powerful than the Cray-1. Granted, these next couple of years are going to suck because of the AI Co

It's a fascinating proposition and no doubt they'll get bigger models in there, and likely be able to cluster multiple models for mega MOE. One thing that would really be great is if they could take the power requirements down --

5G internet seems to be a decent compromise for that -- much simpler infra at least.

I should have been clear with the assumption baked into that statement: the data in question is in a single file, with fixed size fields and sorted by primary keys. That precludes "looser" datasets, but I believe my point stands f

In order to ask this question it's important to understand the lifecycle of the data in question. If it is constantly being updated and requires "liveness" (updates are reflected in queries immediately), the simple answer is:

For actual searching, it seems like RAG would be the way. Instead of rebuilding models, focus on curating datasets and sources.

The past two weeks I've had code that was delivered and declared as done (it did pass tests) but failed in a review by Codex. This has looped to a painful extent. The code in question deals with concurrency issues so there's an ac

There's a lot out there if one were to search on the topic, but basically, by allowing women to engage in entrepreneurial endeavors by giving the rights to conduct that work, and, more importantly , not forcing them to be baby-making
