I've never done verilog professionally but I did "Digital Design and Computer Architecture, RISC-V Edition: RISC-V Edition" as an exercise 2 years ago. I would say Verilog is very much NOT a low level language.…
I've had a vague thought that I wish grocery stores would kind of standardize their bags (you have to use theirs) and just put a passive RFID in them and make them more expensive, but make them nicer, with maybe…
Where are you thinking of when you say that young professionals move when density goes up? That does not track with my observations.
Anthropic can't have their IPO soon enough (rumored October) if these Macs match their reported specs. Maybe $17k for a 512gig system that can do 1.2TB/s seems like a pretty good deal for a small office.
I'm curious if maybe the mistake was in assuming we needed AI for the teaching part of the process. Maybe we should focus only on having AI for the correcting/internalizing part instead? A purely deterministic grader…
So, seems like the logical way to run a business would be to create a bunch of internal metrics but never let any of your reportees know what they are. Or even better, "leak" that there might be metrics (that are in…
Concidently, I asked Claude yesterday whether we have crossed the point that there is more compute and memory in the cloud or in personal computers. It claims fp8 and fp16 has had higher throughput in the cloud since…
Huh, that is an interesting thought. My belief is that a FHE scales at least linearly to the size of the memory. My belief for this is that it if didn't I could "learn" what computation you are doing by analyzing what…
I see a lot of comments here about how private AI is much cheaper than doing this, and that is currently true. But I am curious if anyone can think of any use cases for this as it currently stands? For every idea I can…
Ouch, yeah. I hate to say it, but I have been using Geforce Now ($130 a year when they run their regular discounts) Premium for most of my gaming needs. I hate the lack of competition in the space (Onlive, Google's…

I've often wondered if all they are missing is eye tracking and the ability auto tilling manager? I'd love to be able to press ctrl, look at three windows in my zoomed out view, and then release and have all 3 of them…
I might be misreading this, but I thought it was a reference to "Full Metal Jacket" => https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YoU2hlDJmFE ? Ignoring the military stuff, I feel like it is saying that this harness, although…
The book https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Windup_Girl was partially about the idea of a post oil world. I remember there being mastodons they were using to wind springs and guns that had no explosive charge but instead…
Three points: 1) I think that is a really interesting insight. I have never done the above myself, but often I don't "tinker" with things because the amount of energy it would take me to JUST GET IT RUNNING is large,…
1) (Neutral) I'd need to see more evidence of that. 2) (Unambiguously yes) If your business does not make financial sense without tips, then it isn't a business. There are many businesses that can't currently compete…
I'm genuinely baffled that this is your lived experience. I wonder if you only look at a very restricted set of websites?
Seems like there is no POW "solving" if the POW in question is literally solving some sort of mathematical puzzle. It has a bounds and we can just scale the bounds depending on how much abuse we are seeing. I've never…
Ignoring whether this is a good business, I feel like this is a pretty terrible way to judge a book. If it took off it would result in everyone just starting their book with a real hook, which only works for a small…
Wait, is this correct? Firefox moved from 5% to 12% in one month? That seems unlikely...
And that worked for maybe, what... half a decade? But eventually the Illuminators all transitioned to being Arcane Scribes, the cost of spells plummeted due to increased supply, and in the end only Wizards who had…
Is anyone seeing this? ``` Warning Suspected Phishing This website has been reported for potential phishing. Phishing is when a site attempts to steal sensitive information by falsely presenting as a safe source.…
Awesome, that sounds fun. I'll do as you suggest. And good idea about spectating a match to get the flow of things. That probably will reduce 50% of friction.
Context: So I have 3 friends that I have been playing video games with for over 30 years weekly. So we would be playing half (as a team) of a 4v4. Now, we are never going to be competitive, we are basically playing to…
I'm only partially convinced. I just can't see how you could really know if a company is using a hidden metric (or some sort of proxy for that metric so that they are not technically in violation) for figuring out what…
