indeed, it does not. I am thinking that 7 A100's would be the lowest price for that, and that would be $80k with good discounts.

I think it's normal to invest authority in a report that someone else has prepared - people take what is written on trust because the person who prepared it is accountable for any errors... not just now, but forever. LLM's are not

Isn't this the worst possible case for an LLM? The integrity of the product is central to the value of it and the user is by definition unable to verify that integrity?

I think this shows the problem of non fiscal pegs - the value of rare earths or duterium is going to be impacted by technical change. For example let's say that a new processing technique means that a rare earth can be extracted at 20%

The two UK cases: - Nazi pug man got a fine of £800; no jail. - Cheshire people; in the context of rioting and the consequences of rioting. For the record I think (personal view only) that the Nazi pug man should never have been prosecuted,

I understand the points you are making above and can see that they are backed by the data. I was clearly thoughtless identifying Australia as the opposite of England in terms of available land. In England I believe that low rise apartments

I don't expect the private sector to fix it spontaneously if left to it's own devices. This is (as you flag) a specifically political problem - not a commercial one. There are political fixes which are available, but have not been

I looked this up ( https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Financial_centre#Global_Financ... ) and I think you have got things wrong.

This - the economy rode on financialisation and north sea oil for the two decades before 2008. Since 2008 there has been no real action to resolve the core issue of unlocking the potential of the North of England - everyone knows that that

“To do so, it need simply remove the barriers that stop the private sector from doing what it already wants to do.” Which is fine if resources were infinite or distribution was equal, but neither are true and the private sector will not saf

well - more Russian oligarch funding to be fair.

I think that they are importing much more gas, and that's been very painful, economically, because it was expected to come from Russia... but it hasn't (directly). I also think that there has been an increase in wind and solar - b

Does anyone know why they went for six engines rather than four bigger ones? Was there a specific reason for that config?

I know one ! She's got international experience and connections but moved to a small town. She was a magic circle partner years ago. Now she has a FTTP connection and has picked up a bunch of contracts that she can deliver on with AI.

Yes - the error reporting has always been one of my complaints about Julia (although it's hugely improved). I think that the Julia dev community are really really interested in cool language features and optimisations but much less emp

Yeah - these are not moats though. Moats are the logistic network that Amazon has.. ok spend $10bn over 5 years and then come at me - if I didn't sit still... Moats are what Google has in advertising... ok, pull 3% of the market for mo

sorry - why would you expect a local declaration to be in scope for other code? s is defined in the statement and then is undefined out of that statement because there is no other scope for it - it's at top level. just write s =0 and a

Which should be treated as misconduct. Folks who do this should be shunned by their peers and driven out of academia. It's exploitative and coercive.
