I don’t see how they’re going to commercialise this as a cloud compute service. For one, they’ve built a chip that operates in a fundamentally different way to other chips. So any other company that wanted to use it would have to invest a c

Yet, people freak out when things like Tornado Cash get sanctioned. If there is total inviolable privacy, then criminals will act with impunity. But yes, these are indeed complicated problems. All I really know is that I sleep much better a

If you look at the substance of the changes being made to support Apple Silicon, they're essentially detecting an M* mac and switching to PyTorch's Metal backend. So, yeah PyTorch is correctly serving as a 'glue'. https

The parent may be non-profit, but OpenAI LP accepts investments and delivers returns to investors like any other regular company. The only difference is that they 'cap' the returns. However, the cap is negotiated with individuals

I just did a quick calculation. If the Sri Lankans had traded their Rupees for Bitcoin at the peak, they'd be down about 4% less. However, if they had bought USD instead, they'd up 73%! Bitcoin seems like a poor inflation hedge to

When people call Clippy evil, it's not because of his role as an assistant for Microsoft products. Rather, they're referring to his later actions in running several cryptocurrency pump and dump schemes. It was really a tragic fall

OP took things a little far, you can make it glitch at the 5 day mark. You may ask why I'd need a timer in my web browser for 5 days, and you be right to do so.

Why though? Why stop at drugs and food? Why shouldn't all medical interventions be regulated? Companies can already sell what is effectively a hearing aid[1] without FDA approval. They just can't market it as such. There's al
