The books my wife reads have different results for love triangles. Wonder how freaky Lucas would have been if he could have gotten away with it.

Exabytes. Petabytes are easily surpassed by a lot of companies these days.

They drove a large swath of stores out of business. It’s vastly more difficult

Once it’s automated it’s the same either way. Probably something even vibe code could pull off.

I’ve not missed a Veritasium video in a long time 😄. I’m sure that RAM is much easier to produce, but DRR5 is pretty complex still, and is what has been snapped up in whole by these AI companies. I’m actually wondering if we’ll see a resurgence of DDR4 motherboards, as those fabs are likely around still, just likely more idle if used at all.

I’m fairly certain that spinning up RAM fabs isn’t super quick nor something that doesn’t require the most cutting edge tech.

China is definitely ahead of the US in a lot of tech, but unless they do invade Taiwan they might not have quite a deep enough bench.

Somewhat dependent on budget, but don’t forget about FB marketplace. It’s pretty much the only reason I still go to that godforsaken place.

Money isn’t a thing. I saw that Musk is at 700B now. He can spend a million dollars a DAY for nearly two thousand YEARS.

But also 100% predictable. Sad, but not unexpected.

For reference, I could absolutely take a job in the next couple weeks with a $50k signing bonus where I get to shoot people in the face with impunity, but I also know that the Nuremberg Trials were a thing. Also, I’m not a horrible human.

That’s the old Slashdot model. It does change how echo-y the chambers become when you limit how things get amplified. Those with higher engagement get to push things a lot harder and I’d actually fear the opposite. An Ai model would certainly be able to echo the general feeling of a place and then slowly turn the dial toward a goal, and do it more effectively in that case as it can comment on everything anyway.

Back to steam with the clouds here…

You’re not an edge case. My family isn’t that large but we still have challenges with this exact thing.

There’s a screen device that my wife gets incessantly advertised to her that is probably a better option than it being built into a fridge that has been engineered to last 3 weeks longer than the warranty.

There’s two of us!

Mostly scraping by but also shopping for my next house after selling my first right before the market crashed. Worked a lot of 70+ hour weeks that year. Had 2x car accidents (neither my fault) that totaled out my cars, both of which netted me more than I had spent on the cars in the first place.

For men over 50, it’s both!

Hamburding

Sort of disappointed that I had to scroll this far…

I’m actually thankful. It’s good to know a little about the bleeding edge of science, and there presumably are people who really do understand it. The fact that I don’t, means that there are smart, passionate people out there doing the work. Not every show needs to cater to the lowest common denominator.

They’re definitely building on each other, but they’re definitely ELIApplyingForMyDocotrate degree.

I don’t think it’s on purpose. He got his before the vasy majority knew what a shithead Musk is.
