Oh my god, and to think that OCC used to just be ways to torture the pre-processor... stunning work. Utter and complete no holds barred mud.

Pinball machines are great entertainment, but a plane? Wow. Someone next door to me, when I was growing up, built a boat in their driveway. It was amazing, and they took a long time to both get it right, and to make it seaworthy and comfy

However, self driving vacuums are a done deal. "I have no faith that we are close to useful humanoids." I agree completely. We still have competitions about having robots walk up stairs and open doors, and balance while doing thos

I would say that turtles are the pinnacle of stability, and longevity, and so we have Roombas. But, Racoons are at the pinnacle of dexterity, and Octopodes are at the pinnacle of dimensional manipulation... but personally, I would welcome o

So... like vertical markets? Ram for the data centers, data centers for the robots, robots for the Humanoid? or... the other way around? Robots to build data centers, and robots to build Ram. I see... tech giants and R & D at the top of

Clearly, it was the fault of the AI, and it should be thrown in jail.

Yes, AI can write a solution, but cannot visualized a solution. When I was 9, I refused to learn my times tables, and addition, so I was relegated to work with blocks. I loved the blocks... I was able to complete all the problems, come up w

Its all a math problem, and if it isn't a math problem, its a database problem. I come across a lot of problems, and since I always try to reduce it to a math problem... I intuitively come up with both the solution to the problem, but

At the same time, I was running a home router without any HDD on LRP, Linux Router Project, which was a distribution from Swansea Linux, and was a floppy image, that decompressed into RAM, and then chrood to the RAM image. Really nifty, exc

Nice quote of Darth Vader there ;) "The cycle will once again be complete." Also reminds me to update my fake CV.

When does the movie come out? Totally kidding. Its just propaganda from one of the most murderous regime I can think of, but looks like the USA is going to give it a run for its money.

This is a brilliant observation, in regards to the first edition's depiction of Gollum. In the first edition, he was depicted as a large creature, and Tolkien was upset about it, and in the second edition, changed the description to sm

I was walking down the street, and I saw a art/documentary style picture of a book seller, wearing a Fez, it seemed interesting, so I took a picture of it, and later fawned on it... until I realized that his books were on display, so I

Dijkstra? What is your go-to Dijkstra paper? His papers are like The short stories of Philip K Dick. Everything seems fine and straight forward, until you step into another world. You are indeed privileged. What you have gained by reading t

I was at Best Buy in the Apple section, and I asked its AI "What is the best value in four year old MacBook pros." It pointed me directly at an over-under washer dryer for $3400. Quite obviously, it was trained, like a drooling pu

You mean Apple prices are notoriously over priced, over hyped, under powered, and "Abdul Jabar, couldn't have made these prices, with a sky hook."

Don't I/you wish. The mechanical junction adds no delay, only manufacturing expense, and the delay of purchasing new systems to keep up with OS bloat. Actually the opposite is true. Socketed RAM can be made to overclock and adjust

Sir! I am typing this on a Lenovo Carbon X1, with soldered on ram, and you are EXACTLY CORRECT! I would much prefer two SODIMM sockets with the option to go to 32MB shared video memory, or DDR4/DDR5. Give me OPTIONS!

Well, lets get started. I have 4 of those machines, and they are Two dual processor. They all had 32GB of ram, so now I have two with 64GB, and two with zero. They all hand stock K5000s, now how two have two cards. I stripped the uni proces
