The first generation of GLP-1 agonists are out of patent protection. Teva is producing a generic liraglutide (aka Victoza / Saxenda). Ozempic (semiglutide) and Mounjaro (tirzepatide) have protection until after 2031 in the US, I thin

It's also pretty tough to get good high bandwidth connectivity there and the power infrastructure that can produce enough power to run a datacenter.

The water in the great lakes is controlled by an international compact that prevents water from being diverted from the Great Lakes to other watersheds. So, water utilization from the Great Lakes is constrained. The Wisconsin Foxconn proj

It's probably not worth it to go through your insurance for the loss of food and perishables in the fridge/freezer. It counts as a claim on your home insurance and can result in increased rates or even your insurer dropping cover

Sure, but they are also transitioning to another bank. Wells-Fargo was losing around 10M/month on Bilt and ended it's partnership with Bilt.

Beyond that what about protecting against latch-ups and bit flips due to radiation? The environment is significantly worse in space so short term faults and long term damage should be a concern. There's a reason why radiation hardene

Not surprising, Bilt is apparently losing quite a bit of money on their rent payment rewards. Unless Mesa had a hefty transaction fee built in, they were probably burning through that 9M in cash pretty quickly.

Somewhat related is noether's theorem (from Emmy Noether) that draws direct correspondence between symmetries and conserved quantities. E.g. conservation of linear momentum corresponds to a system that is invariant to translations. So

Probably, multiple resolutions of the same thing. E.g. a lower res image of the entire scene and then higher resolution versions of sections. As you zoom in, the higher resolution versions get used so that you can see more detail while li

This really depends on your relationship with the other person and your status (e.g. US citizen, permanent resident, etc). Long story short, if you are the spouse or immediate family of an US citizen, there isn't any queue to get perm

Semver doesn't help. The primary issue is effort. If it's an open source project with 1-2 devs, they probably won't be able to handle supporting multiple branches unless they're being paid to do this.

It's probably hands on experience that's missing. Even with the all the technical details, often times there's practical details on using this machine or tiny tweaks that need to be made to get it working well.

Toyota's CEO and upper management seemed to be oddly fixated on hydrogen powered cars for a very long time. I think it was just in the last 2-3 years where they finally gave up and started looking at BEVs.

Are your materials and supplies also locally made? The same for each of those suppliers. Very few things are entirely made in the US. How about your equipment? Are the motors, tools, electronics, etc also made in the US? Even companies ma

There's a lot of areas where you need to be able to explain the decisions that your AI models make and that's extremely hard to do unless you're using linear regression. E.g. you're a bank and your AI model for some reas

Devs have to eat and if someone offers you a life altering amount of money to work on their hobby project, a lot of them would probably take it. It's hard to turn down something that might assure your family a comfortable life.

I'm not sure bitcoin or other crypto really is a hedge against inflation. Looking at the BTC value historically, it seems fairly correlated with the s&p 500. So it's not going to protect you very well. Compare the btc value

Having both is really where things are at. That way you can verify that the tools being used for the build aren't doing something behind your back and that the code that you see is what you're getting.

The article points out that the AI + humans approach gives poorer results. Humans end up deferring to or just accepting the AI output without double checking. So corner cases, and situations where the AI doesn't do well just end up g

I think it's more complicated than that. Certain things like branches, comparisons, and some other operations may not be constant time especially if you consider interactions with prior code. It's clearly possible just really diff

I think R isn't great. It has some odd quirks (e.g. <- for assignment) and even using the tidyverse, it's a bit tough to gel with it's mostly functional but not always nature.

Pointer tagging has been around for a while in the Java / JVM context. It lets you add information for bookkeeping when doing GC operations. There might be some usages elsewhere (unboxed vs boxed values, etc).
