Doesn’t Broadcom bring a lot more to bear here than just Verilog? Including relationships with the actual fabricators.
I’m a little surprised to see how much trouble people in this thread have had with the Cal Digit TS3. Mine works pretty well — have used it with three Intel MacBooks in the past and now currently two different Apple…

What does “main” mean? Main processor for a flagship iPhone? Or main processor for a HomePod? There’s a lot of “main” processors for Apple’s devices at this point. I would be deeply skeptical of a brand new flagship…
Big deal, smart for all parties, really. Apple standards will make Intel step up and become a better foundry partner. Apple will gain increasingly needed diversification. US supply chain gets a boost. Should be fine for…

We seem perfectly fine splitting up some aspects of adulthood, like 21 for drinking.
Sure, raise it past the transition period. I’m tired of the pearl clutchers. Decide an age you’ll actually accept. That’s an adult. No more infantilization.
Bought and read the book and honestly the author is just as crazy as the rest of the executive team she skewers. I’m not too broken up that she didn’t get more money from my purchase.
Can we raise the age of adulthood from 18 to whatever acceptable age ends this discourse once and for all?
You’re describing all the advantages that Russia in theory had when it invaded Ukraine. That war remains in stalemate. With US support and the resilience and ingenuity of their people, Ukraine has persisted. > It is…
> Sure you can take an easy/undisciplined target like Maduro. You think what the US military did there was easy? lol. Lmao, even.
I agree with your statement that human resilience can outlast a better army. But then you go on to say: > Which is why if China makes a move on Taiwan, the US can do nothing. If your opening thesis is true, then it's…
I think that says more about our political leaders than our military. Politicians choose the war and our military fights the battles. We're very good at winning battles. But some wars can't be won. The problem then lies…
Pretty sure anyone who fights the US military finds out pretty fast it’s a good military. It isn’t perfect. It has flaws. War is hard to get right in every dimension.
They bought them for the streaming service that came with it. Not for fake weights in headphones.
Love this kind of behind the scenes -- thanks for sharing! Personally, I think in a way you both ended up right. Content is king. But with the iPad (my favorite PDF viewer) as an important part of the Preview landscape…
I still love Opus but it's just too expensive / eats usage limits. I've found that 5.3-Codex is mostly Opus quality but cheaper for daily use. Curious to see if 5.4 will be worth somewhat higher costs, or if I'll stick…
As long as both companies remain stable and viable, there's probably limited upside to pouring more money into them. If they fail, and bring down the AI ecosystem with them, that is very bad news for Nvidia. So they've…
You could get something smaller but have it closer to your face than 1m? The sort of “visual impact” a screen can have is mostly a combination of what percentage of your FOV it consumes. People think they’ve got a bunch…
I get it. I’m scared too. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t.
> Actually it is not about this stage. It is about the sustainability of this when training data runs out This is an argument from 2024. Somehow, the models have continued to improve. If they stopped improving today…
Personally at this point my combined AI spend is the most expensive recurring monthly subscription I have, and that’s even with my company also paying for the AI tools I use at work. If it weren’t subsidized I would pay…
What? SoftBank has been investing in them repeatedly for years now.
This lazy kind of post annoys me because it sort of groups any of us saying that this technology is profoundly different in with all the town criers who have said this kind of thing before — even if we have never said…
