I like my Mac mini as much as the next person, but I don’t think an M5 ultra 64gb with 4tb should be as much as a DGX Spark with 128gb and 4tb.

This is where the DGX spark makes up a bit of the ground it loses on llm work, diffusion and cuda go together like peanut butter and jelly.

Coding has been solved in the same way that writing has been solved. Putting the sentences together is now easier, but having something interesting to say? That’s a lot harder. With the barrier to entry lower there is a lot of things th

I doubt you are the average consumer though. Now days I think the biggest average consumer use case is streaming and game downloading, with game downloading being the biggest “I want it now!” impulse. But do you need 1gb service to downloa

I think the end game is convenience. Nobody really needs anything more than 200mb/s. If the average person can have their entire family stream their favorite Netflix show at the same time then that’s good enough. “Now lil Jimmy can

This has been true for as long as war has been a thing. The Army logistics won’t break, it’ll adapt, because that’s what war machines do. What’s good today isn’t good tomorrow. It’s a nice piece but nothing Sun Tzu or a good game of hear

I feel like this used to be more true, and is getting less true each year. With covid they really did a lot of negative things related to the parks. They cancelled a lot of things ( magical express, free magic bands for resort guests, et

With the 5090 you need to buy the rest of the computer though, and the Dgx spark will run 1/4th as slow but use 1/5th the electricity. And the spark would be able to run things the 5090 just couldn’t, like the Qwen3.5 122b. Whi

I’m always a bit confused by this, don’t we want this? If the end goal is to have ai and robots do it all, and there are no jobs left, what would children provide if they aren’t down payments on a future work force? Only people that wan

I wish google would just go away. The thought of another product with googles tentacles in it makes me nauseous.

The gaming community has known this forever, it’s a personal preference for how much it bothers someone. But fret not, they announced at CES there will be OLED with vertical pixel arrangements really soon.

I agree, if they had a framework it would have been trivial to swap to a new keyboard. Also I get annoyed where they say they don’t like it but don’t yet have an alternative.

My thoughts exactly. It’s all fun and games until they tag something you own.

Interesting contrast to all this tech is that my wife liked the Rivian, but when I told her they won’t do car play that interest went to 0. Can CarPlay not play nice with these things or do they want to keep all the tech dollars to themsel

AI can really only be as good as the data it’s trained on. It’s good at images because it’s trained on billions of them. Lines of code, probably 100s of millions, but as you combine those codes into concepts, split by language, framework,

Trying to read all these threads and perspectives is truly exhausting but I lean more on the Rebble side. The idea that someone steps away for 10 years and then expects to take the work of others to use them and throw them away is tech tox

I had to check the calendar to see if it was April 1. If Apple can sell a sock to put your iPhone in for 150 bucks… I wish I had the skills for that.

That’s silly, they will make a ps6, they’ve made billions with a healthy profit margin.

You can’t in good faith say the root article was an “article about chip making” unless you didn’t read the article. I will only agree my tone was off but it was very much on topic and anyone who actually read the article would realize it’s

iPhones last killer feature was usbc. These are all good and appreciated upgrades for someone with no phone, but my wallet is happy none of it is really that interesting and enough to warrant an upgrade. Right now I don’t know what they c

I mean the M1 is nice but pretending that it can do in 110w what the 3090 does with 320w is Apple marketing nonsense. Like if your use case is playing games like cp2077, the 3090 will do 100fps in ultra ray tracing and an M4 Max will only

Graphing calculators did, which is why in a lot of math classes they got banned. If your calculator can solve for x, you won’t spend time learning how to. The best math classes usually do without calculators focusing on concepts and skip

To have a conversation about the US government buying a stake in Intel, and the threats of China in that space, requires one to have a conversation about both politics and ideology. It’s disingenuous to claim anything else. And to point ou

Rich people have been paying off politicians forever, Trump isn’t the first, and he won’t be the last. Back the winner until the winner is the loser, then back the new winner, repeat. AKA the king is dead long live the king!

I feel too, at least in the US, people have backed themselves into a corner where they are unable to dole out punishment. Not just for violating or abusing taking their dogs everywhere, but literally everything. Should someone be punishe

I don’t think it’s entirely a mentality issue. I think North America created an environment where you wouldn’t want your 8 year old to navigate New York City. I would let my kids wander Tokyo before I would let them wander Chicago. Japan
