There are no Chinese gpus. The one thing they announced is equivalent to middle of the range of consumer cards four generations old and it’s not even available yet.

Just your weekly reminder that the ultra-wealthy get rich by taking YOUR money. Bezos? Billionaire because you buy on Amazon. Likewise if you buy the stock or your index fund or retirement fund buy the stock he gets rich. From your money. I

That tracks. People as a whole are terrible at predicting. There are a few people who can put aside preconceptions and see a situation clearly. I bet there are fields where any given super predictor consistently fails.

I drive a Mercedes. My grandfather rode a camel. The oil has made us rich. But the oil riches will end. My grandchildren will ride camels.

I love when women put must be 6’ tall. I would never date anyone who stated that requirement. Not only have they proved themselves to be shallow and petty, I’m simply not tall enough.

All billionaires pay less tax than wage earners because capital gains are taxed at half what wage earners pay. (In the us — I’m not familiar with all the other tax codes in the world)

This fails twice: It’s self referential (consciousness is the way you’re aware of what it’s like to be you) Yeah dumbass what we’re trying to define is that very thing. And falsifiability: What’s it like to be a rock? List ten qualities of

They’re a great way for retailers to rip you off with “dynamic pricing” where that just raise the price whenever they want. Such as raising the price of water when it’s hot out. I think that’s actually called gouging and is illegal. I do ki

Comets might work best since you want the water more than the rock. You’d need a couple thousand (but if you can do one you can do a thousand) good idea.

Yeah I saw people on H1-B in Silicon Valley who would continue working with a narcissist because the H1-B made they unable to switch companies without cost, coordination and risk. Don’t get me started on the lottery. The system is broken an

The new mortgage backed securities are the instruments trading the debt used to build AI data centers (the AAA rated debt that is anything but). The music will stop when there’s a blip in liquidity. Everyone will rush for a chair and there

We need to separate the conversation. Most people operate in good faith. 99% of the population of SF would never kick in a car window and steal a laptop. But a handful of people is all it takes. We should 100% surveil, track, arrest and pro

The key point here is not that they think you’re stupid but that they refuse to let you say no. One of the Google founders (Sergei I think) read the book “nudge” and fell in love with it. What Google product managers fail to realize is that

I typically hate when people tell me what I do or don’t do. However in this one case you are correct. Claude recommended this once and it worked great. But I don’t understand it enough to use it often and certainly don’t love it as much as

If you’re broadcasting strong language associated with violence? I’d hope the captain would remove you whatever side of whatever conflict you’re on. What are some things Israeli settlers shout before they murder Palestinians? Shout a couple

People who feel strongly about those political views routinely murder, rape, kidnap and bomb. Being on a plane does 100% change the calculus of free speech. You can’t say something that threatens the life and safety of the people trapped on
