The paper misses a critical point. The A.I. may not self improve itself, but it may self improve based on the real world feedback loop. Example: A.I. provider delivers bad models -> ai provider eventually gets less resources Example 2: A

Useless. It rated ptv.de as pretty safe, where I built a replacement on, say 15 evenings using Claude code + OSM. The replacement is currently in early operations stage, but it nailed what ptv did before. It rated the company where I work a

Someone will find a reflexive material to put on the drone. Then you have a multi kw laser that hits randomly anywhere when intercepting drones. Also I wonder why it is not common to run interception drones that automatically fly towards in

Shelly devices support json rpc over udp. It is quite nice to use those apis and the resulting client code is surprisingly light weight and robust. However, there are two things that worry me: a) what about datagrams bigger then MSS? Here t

Their argumentation is pretty naive. If they would truely like to fix up the situation, they could simply put a tax on the exported electricity. Depending on the height of the tax, exports would be adjusted accordingly. Maybe, a non linear

Hm, does not appear sound to me because it seems to be utterly impossible to control for other factors that happened during the last 2k years. I completely agree that there may be the possibility to segment the population along an imaginary

Im curious :) Why did you port the services from Kotlin to rust? Can you elaborate a bit on the reasons for the rewrite?

Can I rephrase the question? How much concurrent tasks can you run on a mid sized server in 2024? Definition of mid size: machine that will have 1TB Ram and maybe 64 Cores. A small machine would be my workstation. 192GB Ram and 32 Cores. Wh

We also do this. For us, the limiting factor is the IDE getting slower with bigger files. For IntelliJ+Kotlin the big file handling got better over time, but if files get bigger and bigger, the response times of auto completion and other id

Quote from the article: “ Last year, the Census Bureau projected that the U.S. population would peak around 2080 and head into a continuous decline thereafter.” The census bureau has to make those projections because they are supposed to do

Any idea why it happened during night times? I would have expected it to happen during day times when there are dynamic loads from cars or light rail cars.

As a former ETH miner I learned the hard way that saving a few bucks on hardware may not be worth operational issues. I had a miner running with Nividia cards and a miner running with AMD cards. One of them had massive maintenance demand an

Full ack. Since a few years I’m considering what strategy could be used to grow a competitor that is much cheaper. The market gap where to start this is obvious to me: at least in Germany a lot of street food vendors don’t accept credit car

My biggest fear is that aging can actually be stopped and humans live forever. Reason: 1. The putins of our world will never die naturally. They will die only by force. 2. According to Max Planck, scientific progress will stop, because scie
