Yes but only one of them gets email from Jerry :P

by timtrueman 18y ago
What you have to understand is that EVERY email from Jerry is lowercase. I can see how some people think this is offensive, but honestly, they lack the context of every other email he's ever sent. I think Yahoos would be worried if he start

Clearly either Moore's Law has been broken or you're mistaken.

They are the power LEDs/switches for each of the four motherboards on each piece of cork board. Yes, cork board. It's non-conductive.

So basically you guys are saying it's way faster, but not that it's not technically impossible to do in software on normal computers. I'm just not sure it's NOT cheaper and faster to prototype this stuff in software and then build it in har

"Large-scale neural simulations are difficult for computers because neural models do not map onto the Von Neumann architecture." I'm not sure I buy that. I can understand if speed is a big deal but I just can't imagine neural models do not

Please anyone but him...he'd put that $600B into things like hard drives made from metal foil that increase battery life on laptops by 70% (didn't realize HDs took that much power) and they "can spin up, read or write data, then shut down a
