Hi Christopher, I'm a big fan of your speccy project and I hope it gets funded. To your points: > To have any chance of having someone distribute your product you need to give them at least 40% margin. It depends on the distributor.

It's really not anymore. It's trivial to make cheap PCBs and PCB assembly is even free in most cases (checkout jlcpcb.com for example).

No you can't, there's no meaningful storage on this pcb. Besides, you could do the same with a dirt-cheap rp2040 or similar cpu. What's the FPGA added value?

Though it is cool to see a minute FPGA dev board, I don't see the value proposition here. At $45, it is too expensive to use in a product. What is the killer app for this board? One can get a significantly more powerful Tang Nano 20K [

So, each human gets 419 digits from a pool of ~41M digits, or a target of ~100k videos uploaded. This is the weirdest DDoS attack on YouTube I've seen.

You know.. with Aleph0 representing the first degree of infinity and Googol being ..just a constant.

Off-Topic: I always thought they missed out on a great opportunity to name the umbrella company AlephBet instead of AlphaBet ([1]), perhaps with a tag-line that reads: "stop thinking in constants" (to contrast Googol being equal t

this is some pretty ugly stuff. If you are in contact with any of the Entropic folks, maybe point them to this or the r/ thread so that they can provide more context.

did they end up paying Entropic in the months that passed ?

that was the point. a car is much easier to make, and they couldn't even do that after 10 years.

They've been trying to make a car for the past decade, arguably an easier task than making a search engine.

So long as they don't prevent users from switching to Google, I'd honestly like to see that search engine. And on the grand scheme of things, maybe it's good for Google to have some pressure against making choices that lead t

Fascinating links, I had almost forgotten about these engines.

It is an interesting question: how this new system quantifies progress and whether it can detect that a chain of reasoning is close to the solution. Although it was just 2 points shy of a golden medal (1 point partial credit per problem not
