Personally, I'm totally ok to have a competitor to Nvidia, regardless of whether they are under the price or not.

They will still get all the flak, facts never mattered.

It's still AI, just a different type.

> People say they're afraid of death, but often what they really mean is dying as the wrong person. Nope, pretty sure it's almost always a mix of a) not knowing what (if anything) is after, b) the way one achieves the state of

Learning is not just strictly studying. I'd say most of the learning is done by actually doing.

I don't think you were there when the switch started to happen in the mid 2000s. All these are things which came after they "won".

Game consoles are not biological beasts which decay as a matter of nature or fact. They are tools, toys, they are devices. I can still play my PS1 as before, I just need to pop in a CD and I'm good to go.

I would say Ubuntu Touch + a Fairphone. Graphene is too reliant on Google.

This perspective has been beaten down to death but, just so you know, whenever you went to see a movie at friend's house, you also didn't contribute and were in fact pirating the content.

Premium? Sure things are more expensive but you can get 1TB hdd for 25-30 eur. You don't need an ssd and I'm sure you can find second hand drives even cheaper (or larger). Starting a subscription is money down the drain.

The battle is alive and well, pirating has never been easier and of this high quality. Support the creators however you want but go foster an environment around your friends and family that there are alternatives to paying evil companies wh

Yeah, I did the same. Now you can even run android apk's on the system, which makes it easier to switch.

What's the most interesting le text from olden times that you would recommend?

I hope Ubuntu Touch has native support for this, as it's a great OS with massive potential and active community.

Great write-up. Side note: interesting to see how many folks commenting did not get it being satire (even the title has LGTM). I guess it's time to rethink how sharp the HN folks truly are compared to the average non-tech person (not t

The whole point of the thesis is that because the cover image are very similar, therefore LLMs are bad at writing text? I think it's that today's LLMs have access to poor/generic image generation models and people find it e

Ticks are extremely tough to kill, compared with the myth that some people hold that they can only be drowned (you can obliterate them pretty well with a rock) I'm pretty sure many return to the wild unscathed. And some even just pull

Rehashing and inspired by are different things. There are certain elements of Journey to the West found in DB but not even Goku is similar to Wukong. Yes, monkey-like features, extending stick, perhaps a couple of early characters but every

In one thread people fighting the ever decreasing amount of hw ownership of most devices in our lives and when we have one that is more open, the crowds come to attack that too. The theat model with tech has always been that if an attacker

Personally working at a bio farm and while it is more work than just spraying some chemical wholesale, I think it's not necessarily much harder than the past (not sure though). What I do know is that not being bio is much easier, that&

Yep but that's just always been the case: it's a world of difference between spraying the latest Monsanto v7 KillEmAll upgraded formula or supporting biodiversity such that for every major pest there is also something which eats i
