The report you're probably basing this claim on says $600 million FCF, and that is an estimate for 2024. The same report assumes an 80% revenue growth in 2024 compared to 2023. But it's hard to estimate how much their market wil

The reality today on the Internet is that IPv4 is still "the modern IP standard," and IPv6 is the next/future standard for early adopters.

A better quote that I think illustrates that the paper was confused about the terms as well: > The combination of these features makes PMMM a practical solution for transparent roofs and walls, offering improved light management, energy

Yes, there is some confusion there. The point they are making related to plants though is that, apparently, (some?) plants absorb diffuse light better than direct light. So, they claim that the photosynthesis efficiency would actually be en

Yes, the right word would have been that it's a translucent material, not a transparent one. The paper makes this confusion as well, though they do sometimes call it "translucent" too.

by simiones 2y ago
You're right about what it does, but the original article also often calls this material "transparent", e.g.: > This design integrates several functionalities, including light diffusing, self-cleaning, and radiative coolin

by simiones 2y ago
It's bizarre to call this "transparent", given that it highly distorts light, even if it technically allows most of it through. It's actually a translucent material. This also makes it horrible for windows, since peopl

They pretty clearly talk about public hosts, so it seems quite likely that they are in fact doing split-horizon DNS (i.e. machine1.site.com will be resolved to an ULA address if the query is coming from the same subnet, or to the public add

Understanding mathematics basically means understading higher-level reasoning. If an AI were able to actually do this + the ability to generate and interpret language that LLMs already show, it would seem to be 90% or more of the way to AGI

by simiones 2y ago
But that's not all that relevant to the question "can LLMs do math". People don't really need ChatGPT to replace a calculator. They are interested in whether the LLM has learned higher reasoning skills from it's tra

What baffles me the most is the choice to include human figurines (the bust, the statue, the smiley right at the end). The imagery of human figures getting crushed is going to look disturbing even to the least environmentally conscious view

For a website, if the cause of the error is something internal to the server (a bug or other temporary condition), what could possibly be gained by telling the user the reason why this failed? "An error occured, try again later" i

Ultimately X11 is the main component that you use to draw and interact with a GUI on a traditional Unix or on a Linux system (Wayland is a more recent alternative, and there have been other attempts in the past, but X11 is still the most co

You're missing the simple fact that this idea that the market will arrive at every positive thing that can be quantified is simply wrong. Markets will very very often converge on local maxima if allowed to. This is obvious if you think

No, most people when asked to rate something think back to their school days, where "has done all the work we asked for" is either the max grade (A/10/20), or just under (say, A-/9/18). So, most people give 5 s

You are misunderstanding. They are not suggesting this would be a good or objective system. The problem is that ratings for drivers/deliveries/restaurants are just as arbitrary as this. I have seen people give 1 star reviews to a

They didn't say it, but it is the natural conclusion to be drawn.

Isn't the opposite mostly happening, with CPU's single-core performance mostly flat for the last decade, while I/O speeds have been improving every year (especially in networking, not as sure about disk I/O).

What the poster above is showing is that even the medical review boards are actually bad and should probably be replaced with independent oversight. You seem to think that it's the other way around.
560.
by simiones 3y ago
This suggests that maybe there should exist citizen's review boards of medical malpraxis just as we are trying to create for police. Thanks for bringing this up.

Using deadly force against police officers in the middle of doing their duty is a recipe for being beaten and then murdered, even if you were technically within your legal rights to do so.

by simiones 3y ago
What happens in court is irrelevant. The police will have arrested you, and they had a "reasonable pretext", so they won't face any repercussions. You, however, will not only lose the opportunity of filming them, but will at

That is a different type of review though. Police departments also have Internal Affairs officers who review the work of other policemen for various problems. Citizen review boards become necessary because the public is losing confidence in

Would you think it's a good idea if there were a Presidential Review Board that is named by the President? After all he/she is elected by the people! The whole point of a review board is to be independent of the authority it is su

The article says you start with a list of positive integers. It also clearly shows right in the first example of the first rule that you can go smaller than the smallest initial value: [7, 5, 3] -> [6, 1, 5, 3] is the first legal mov

In this case, we're talking about someone distributing source code for others to compile, so that is out of scope.

by simiones 3y ago
I think the point is that all of the code which will get compiled to produce the final binary should be in the repo, and so any generated code that affects the final binary should be in the repo. The use of autotools or other similar tools,

It's important to focus on people, not just code, when suspecting an adversary. Now, I have no idea if this is the right account, and if it has recently been compromised/sold/lost, or if it has always been under the ownership

Probably the Germans and the Russians working together, I would say. Makes the most sense, after all, what losing the billions they invested together in building it would hurt everyone else the most, right?

Assange's team brought evidence that the USA had a kidnapping/assassination plot in case he attempted to flee to Russia. They brought this as obvious evidence that he will not be safe in US custody - they were already willing to k
