>Forecasters expect Friday’s report on gross domestic product to show the economy expanded 2.7% in 2025, a solid pace by any standard for a developed country. I would be very curious to see if any circular deals aka…
>Is 75 minutes really considered that long of a time? From my experience in setting up and running support services, not really. It's actually pretty darn quick. First, the issue is reported to level 1 support, which is…
Hardware doesn't just pop out of the thin air. Data centers need to be built, GPUs need to be produced, and storage, and other compute, and networking, etc etc. All this needs people. Shouldn't there be boom in…
Obviously it's both. Just like dot-com bubble was, as were countless bubbles before that.
OpenAI burned $6.7bln on R&D with revenue of $4.3 bln in 1st half of 2025. And is planning on raising _trillions_ to build compute/storage for the next gen/AGI. How's this not a bubble?
My guess would be infrastructure. Like brick and mortar, buildings, laying down fiber, installing and setting up servers, and then maintenance. Construction is booming... Or should be. Any day now :)
I very much disagree. Terms and definitions matter, and in this case what you mean by "AI" changes the answer. Again, general-purpose LLMs might be a dead end. Specialized neural networks are not. One might argue that…
Very dumbed-down take on the subject. What's "AI"? ChatGPT and Google AlphaFold are both AI. I very much doubt speech and voice recognition and synthesis, as well as visual object recognition, are "as good as they will…
Sure, it wasn't bad when IT caused automation and elimination of many job positions and entire occupations, both manual and office. Now that we're on the receiving end of it, it is a bad thing all of a sudden. As for…
Can someone please refer me to the hard data on "overhiring in 2020"? I was laid off as part of the initial panic in early 2020. The job market for IT for the entirety of 2020 was dead. D-E-A-D. There was a _very_ small…
The test site is severely damaged, and they don't have another one. It took what ,6 months to rebuild the launch tower after IFT-1? And it wasn't destroyed, just damaged, on the test site the tanks and pipes and all the…
Might actually not be a design flaw, just a leak due to rushed production. But these should be caught BEFORE the thing blows up and causes X million worth of damage.
The full and rapid reuseability is the ultimate goal. Make rocket launches as frequent and routine as commercial plane flights. Whether they use it for Mars or Moon on Earth-to-Earth or anything in between is…
So that's 3 issues in the last 2 flights and one static fire, all different, all with different root causes, all catastrophic. Block 3 will be a different vehicle, should they just skip Block 2 (scrap however many they…
Aside from the fact that both were the largest rockets in their time there's literally NOTHING in common between these 2 programs. Government-run vs private-run (partially govt-bankrolled). Single use vs fully reusable.…
