Of course there are minimal new homes. Crooked/biased current home owners know that every new home built reduces(incrementally) the selling price of their home. So they infest local laws with restrictive limits on new homes (density, h

AI can be an effective support tool for a teacher. Old way = 30 students, with teacher at the front explaining/showing/etc. Occasional questions/responses. Some are shy, some not following, many baffled, most silent. New way

I would not discount Musk. He is an intelligent man and will draw on the expertise of other intelligent people to assess the state of the current art, where it is going, and build to create an up to date fab as an extension of that curve wi

I wonder if the many Starlink satellites can be used for this? True, the signals are low and are steered, but the nature of steering creates many side lobes that will be useable in this manner. It would be a complex computational task with

Yes, the space is indeed deep/wide, but LLMs probably cull the herd as they proceed so they eliminate swathes as they go. Smart fuzzing in a way.

I wonder how the huge slug of memory that might now have to re-direct mid-ramp as this (and other AI pullbacks) ramify forward? Will Crucial re-enter the desktop market? Or will it create a slow/fast subsidence in memory? We will live

AI is a house painter, wall to wall, with missed spots and drips. Good coders are artists. That said, artists have been known to use assistants on backgrounds. Perhaps the end case is a similar coder/AI collaborative effort?

Yes, here in Ontario, Canada, the salary rate is quite low, but over time ramps to $60-80K. This tends to limit new enrollments at the low end via Teacher Colleges, but is so large at the top end that budgets are starved. As a kid in HS in
