No, they've made purpose-built silicon for sia mining and it is no longer viable to mine on general purpose compute. As far as storage mining - it may be. last check (november) filecoin was the most profitable to host your disk space

It is unlikely that this is related to the much more purpose-built and conventionally-designed "neural engine" in the M1 (as they are dubbing it) which operates in the "set it up, feed it, and check the results" type of

If I can delete my entire GitHub account and screw everything and everyone connected to it with a single red warning prompt you can bet your ass it's possible to online cancel a service that may in some edge cases affect a customer.

I have one that is even better. Bell Canada. They require you to speak to the "loyalty" team before you can have a service cancelled. That team is only available by phone. That team has a 1 hour wait time during the hours that th

Just use a virtual credit card and you can "cancel" any service you want by pausing the card. Privacy.com and payaware are two I would recommend for this.

Changing the terms post-hoc is pretty scummy. Logically you would assume having something is better than nothing, as I assume most would - simple math. The reality is anticipating more than you actually receive can be more detrimental. Y

Wait until google hops in, launches with their banking license, and starts lending based on their own models (tuned with their own data) straight from the Federal Reserve.

Underrated comment. Strangely the opposite is true for the linux kernel - seems to run better and better on old hardware every year.

I'd wait for actual benchmarks just judging by the amount of parachute clauses in the disclosures. Power consumption numbers should be great but I'm guessing it falls flat on some compute tasks that can't leverage custom ins

I'd like the manufacturers to disclose how many they built and sold. These launches feel very limited. For things to sell out in seconds is not normal.
