It's what Altman has constantly said was going to happen. Up to you to decide if he's actually in the industry or not.

The fundamental architecture of an LLM is used across all these services - and that's reaching its limits.

Heavy investments is a strong term for modest hedges around SMRs.

Tens of millions is low risk pocket change compared to the billions burned running the things constantly.

The problem is they're all playing chicken with each other.

OpenAI will never back down. The question is will Google, Microsoft or Amazon blink first

I'm pro nuclear as well but we absolutely can maintain this level of energy consumption on renewables alone.

The question is cost and risk - I'm for diversification of our grid which includes nuclear.

But it is getting to the point where renewables with backups will be cheaper than coal. That's absolutely something you can run the entire grid off of. You can balance storage requirements with excess production capacity that gets shuttered over the summer etc etc

Another demonstration of how NYC is the only real city in America and anywhere else is a suburb larping as a metropolis.

You can't call yourself a metropolis unless half the population uses public transit: change my view.

Resources are just way cheaper than developers.

It's a lot cheaper to have double the ram than it is to pay for someone to optimize your code.

And if you're working with code that requires that serious of resource optimization you'll invariably end up with low level code libraries that are hard to maintain.

... But fuck the Always on internet connection and DRM for sure.

As a cyclist in NYC the complaint that bikes are weaving through cars is hilarious.

Of course they are. Cars are almost always stuck in traffic while bikes move faster.

I can make my 12ish mile commute in 45 minutes. Until the bridge I spend every mile of that commute passing cars.

That's all besides the point though: there shouldn't be personal passenger vehicles in NYC. Business vehicles sure. A few taxis are personal vehicles because of Uber - sure. But there should be 0 street parking and heavy restrictions on where drivers are allowed to go. We need to take back our streets.

Sovcits are all seeking to regain control of their lives. They recognize the system is cold and uncaring but though the power of magical thinking they believe that loopholes exist that can give you control back.

Are they delusional? Yes. Is their pain and frustration, the root cause of the insanity, valid? Absolutely valid, and something all of us (generalizing here, bourgeoisie excluded) experience.

You have more in common with a sovcit than you do with Jeff Bezos or any other billionaire.

Friendly reminder that your predictive text, while very compelling, is not alive.

It's not a mind.

Not to mention the major hurdle for Linux gaming is anti cheat software being brought over. Too many games are 100% unplayable because the devs don't allow their anticheat to be installed on Linux systems

It creates a new process that spins up 2 new instances of itself recursively.
