I would imagine somebody has floated this idea before, but I wonder if the distraction of hydrogen rather than electric cars was a ploy by Japanese automakers to give them time to build up the cars / supply chain etc to switch to elect

I might be too new to this area -- but is this actually explaining how to create like a small version of the actual trained model -- not like "using the trained model for X"? like I can imagine in the future people won't star

A good way to fix this and relieve the stress for the employees but get the PTO debt burden thing off the books is to just call it RTO.. recommended time off.. pick a number and say “while PTO is unlimited we have a recommended number that

Yea I would say the main set of tricks related to using cells, working with large text files, and working with things like meshgrid as a few examples. Super easy to get confused even with good documentation and examples. Matlab benefits fro

I wonder if Matlab being most hated relates to people being forced to learn it in undergrad and it being poorly taught etc. I’ve found it very useful but it took a fair amount of time to build up the set of tricks to doing things right. I w

While AI definitely will be used to help artists, nobody would be happy with somebody being the first to brute force run through tons of prompts on stable diffusion and submitting copyrights on all of those.. imagine if Getty did that..

This seems great -- I hope this concept of improving C++ takes off -- telling people to just switch to Rust is pretty lame.. tons of huge code-bases exist that are C++.

Yea likely many cash buyers will sit in a wait and see mode except for amazing properties (like waterfront that is being sold cheaper than expected etc) -- but the ability of the fed to drive housing prices down will probably be seen as a f

This is super bad news for Apple — Zengzhou having a massive lockdown will scare away workers for a while unless they promise to pay big jumps in salary to come back I would imagine.. Apple shifting tons of production to India is super bad

People do that to allow them to run the software video decoding decryption modes of widevine and similar -- but typically that is limited to lower resolution videos. To use the higher resolution like 4k streams, the browser will load the wi

I guess they backed out the “which” change before this so you wouldn’t see something silly like: which egrep And it would print You should use command -v egrep is being deprecated /usr/.. Like jeez..

I think the idea would be you need to empower the network of satellites in the sky to react quickly to a nuclear attack from another country, so you need to allow this “sky-net” to launch nukes at a moments notice without human intervention

Seems like the research should be focused on behavior of neutron heavy isotopes in metallic lattices rather than trying to see how much fusion gain is happening or not happening. Like why is there the 100X amount of neutrons coming out comp

Disagree but not because of philosophical reasons like “I want to fix my driver and know what it is doing”, but actually practical reasons — tons of companies make a driver plus hardware and end up semi abandoning it.. but some people in th

I wonder if at some point Apple reduced the sampling frequency of the gps position to save power? Since this sounds pretty important to the guy, I would buy a Garmin watch or similar to compare to and run with both. I also suspect one of th

The reason why this is such a game changer is that it is not controlled on some central server.. its like saying paper and pencils can be revoked from people if somebody doesn't like what you do with it... its an amazing new technolo

At least in the US if you look at all of the long distance transmission lines, you could easily find huge areas next to the lines that are totally uninhabited to site a new solar installation plus the transformers etc to connect up to the g

Besides the range economics, if the trucks come with automatic emergency braking, lane following, alerts when cars slow, and even a rudimentary self-driving functionality, the insurance might end up being cheaper once the rates of accidents

The idea that the only safe way for a tool to be used is on the cloud / servers so it potentially can be taken away is a terrible tone to take... the opposite should be the default -- saying "somebody knows better" is incredi

Power is an interesting part of the trend for TSMC -- 4 generations of 30% power reduction -- so that should result in a 75% reduction in power -- so where you burned 10W before, you now burn only 2.5W -- but does that mean you get the lowe

No idea which way it will turn out, but I’ve been assuming the opposite for startups actually — startups that don’t have an office and recruit more widely could more easily keep costs down early on in their life.. but yea much more fast pac

Speaking of dual-EC -- it does seem like 2 questions seem to be often debated, but it can't be neglected that some of the vocal debaters may be NSA shills: 1. does the use of standards actually help people, or make it easier for the NS

It would be great if the Bureau of Labor Statistics would do some analysis of which industries would be considered low margin and worker-wage dominated industries that if the wages for the workers increased, would cause a knock-on effect in

Not sure how it is globally but in the US the logic here is that if the owner is paying a mortgage on the house, then the renter should cover that mortgage and then some for a profit. So that would imply the renter can afford the mortgage b

They do need to do a bit of heating to extract the hydrogen, but probably not a huge deal as compressed H2 gas when expanded out and burned would pull energy from the environment — so there is energy being used there as well.
