That's the thing. Nvidia's future growth has been potentially kneecapped by R1's leaps in efficiency.

That still means that that AI firms don't have to buy as many of Nvidia's chips, which is the whole thing that Nvidia's price was predicated on. FB, Google and Microsoft just had their their billions of dollars in Nvidia GPU

Correct, Nvidia has been on this bubble-like tragectory since before the stock was split last year. I would argue that today's drop is a precursor to a much larger crash to come.

Could banking customers moving their business to Credit Unions be disruptive? I know nothing about this space, by the way.

Sauce? How do you even measure "capabilities" in that regard, just writing answers to standard tests? Because being able to ace a test doesn't mean it's AGI, it means its good at taking standard tests.

Uyghurs committed frequent acts of terrorism against China throughout the 1990s and 2000s, so you actually don't need to imagine that scenario. The treatment of Uyghurs is unjust and a clear violation of their human rights, but it&#x27

Do people still post things on Facebook? I don't know because I haven't used it, ever, but I've heard that Meta has turned it into a platform mostly for passively consuming algorithmically-driven content instead of sharing yo

Online identity verification is the obvious solution, the only problem is that we would lose the last bits of privacy we have on the internet. I guess if everyone was forced to post under our real name and identity, we might treat each othe

I've never used a McDonalds kiosk for the reason you gave. Actually, I think no matter how much you streamlined it with cutting edge AI assistants it would still be faster and more natural to just say "A big mac and a diet coke pl

A is the most consistent (green), but you can see how over time the M settled into being red and almost never deviates from that now. Great post!

I'm glad that you're making it a toggle and not banning it outright. This is my biggest gripe with BlueSky at the moment.

A big part of Elon's brand is making it look like he's a kind of autistic, nerd-prodigy. Same aesthetic that Sam Bankman-Fried played on with his cargo shorts and gaming habit. Many normies think that Elon "invented" ele

They were asking about bombs and invasions in the literal sense, not metaphorical. I'm sure if you asked someone in Gaza or Iraq if they would rather be subjected to more of America's bombing and war crimes, or China's abstr

How much capacity does solar and wind add compared to nuclear, per square foot of land used? Also I thought the new administration was placing a ban on new renewable installations.

Technically the Apple Music app will play local files, but only MP3, AAC and ALAC. No FLAC, ogg, opus, etc. Plus it advertises at you to subscribe to their music service.

The Plague of Justinian was also the first recorded major outbreak of bubonic plague. Black death seems to be the pivot-point at a lot of important moments in history.

It's horrible. Consequence of all the App Store and developer fees I guess. I hope to get out of Apple's "ecosystem" soon.

FiiO is a great recommendation! I used to have one of their players but the firmware was buggy and I resold it. These players look like they have high quality construction though.

I remember Links, the text-based browser that runs in your terminal, had a framebuffer mode that you could use to get rudimentary graphical web browsing on a system with no X11 installed.

We should probably stop treating debates among "dummies on the internet" as anything other than noise that muddies up the conversation. Edit: to be clear, this also applies to comment sections on HN :-)

I would argue that Telegram is a much, much larger security threat to the average individual American than Tiktok. Except they comply with government search warrants and don't enable E2E encryption by default so they are useful to the

Do you have any proof that the Chinese government played a role in his campaign? Because the 2016 United States election was possibly influenced by disinformation campaigns on Facebook, yet there is no ban and Zuck is taking an even more la
