I feel like most high throughput distributed systems eventually reach a point where some part of it is constrained by de/serialization. Not much is faster than protobuf except for zero copy formats.

We are mincing words. I don’t think collaboration, altruism, and other pro social traits are exclusive of instrumentalizing. Whatever word you want to use that encompasses pro social behaviors, let’s use that word if you don’t like instrume

At least you get to prompt the llm, as opposed to consuming content where you don’t know what the prompt was and could have been intended to misinform. At least the response doesn’t have an ad injected between each paragraph and is intentio

Did you pay for that AI to work for you? How much would you be willing to pay for it? Tractors undoubtedly increase farmer efficiency, the evidence is clear to see, even when accounting for all costs necessary to design and produce tractors

There’s more to it than that. It’s better for the longevity of the components to be shielded, and the noise it gives iff could bother you in your home, in terms of wifi, Bluetooth, etc interference. I practice electric guitar at home and I
