This is pure revenue extraction from American tech. The EU now makes more in fines from American companies than it does in taxes from its own tech industry. It is clearly impossible to fill these roles with humans without breaking the eco

Personally knowing four people with GBM and not being an oncologist is exceptional and worrying. That feels like it should be raised to… someone. It is very possible something bad is happening and a commonality needs to be tracked down urge

Fun story I heard recently: apparently a bunch of pigs were placed on various small islands in the pacific in the 19th century so in case sailors were running out of food, they would have a known self-sustaining backup option. Many of those

You should find a camp to join that can help coordinate tickets. (Whether Directed Group Sale or just having the network for overflow tickets.) Unless you’re prepared to spend $$$ and suffer through figuring out a lot to truly DIY it, it’ll

Right, if our best regular conductors (used in your ohmmeter) are ~10^-8 and superconductivity is (by convention) less than 10^-11, one can see right away the simple regular methods won’t work and some cleverness is needed.

All I’m saying is that I think it will be challenging to produce a commercial product that achieves product-market fit for an application other than basic neuroscience research. It’s a cool tool but the practical drawbacks are myriad, and w

Interestingly, this is not a new result; people have been doing stuff like this since at least the 90s, most notably Steve Potter at GA Tech and Tom DeMarse in Florida.[1][2] (I built a shitty counterstrike aimbot using a cultured neural ne

$10B isn’t even in the ballpark. We should be willing to pay $1T to fully onshore TSMC, if that were magically an option.

Is there anything actually released here? Just a paper? No weights, not even code ?! No interactive product of any kind? The degree of Google’s inability to actually ship anything even now is totally mindblowing

Imagine you want to calculate what frequencies are present in a sound. At the width of the time window you are looking at goes to zero, you just have a single point. There's no frequency content of a single point! It's just a numb

For the prosumer smart home, I highly recommend going with the low end industrial automation (ie https://automationdirect.com , https://findernet.com , etc) rather than “IoT” brands. Way more powerful, everything is in
