Already 8 years and being non profitable is forgivable for a hardware startup creating something new, especially a new silicon. Depends why they are losing money. But losing money alone is not bad. This ain't an ice cream truck. Agree

They never say that. They say: Tesla shares up as revealations surface that the wind is blowing east.

AMD, Groq in the future, TMSC? Edit: I will add Apple.

Yes I forgot to mention the implied: Homes, that meet code, with connected utilities in places people want to live that are not being landbanked.

Hard to know that unless you got some inside to what they were thinking during hire. If it worked I wonder if it worked as a shibboleth.

Friendly would be win win. We'll pay you so you dont worry about money, and we win because you are great. Batna (looks better as a word) is there but in the distance.

Thanks for putting meat on the (speculitive) bone I threw out! Very interesting.

Yeah I am not saying all the time, but I am saying when it happens it can br less bounded than "human population growth in the early 21st century."

BATNA is kind of a dog whistle that this is a slighty hostile business deal. Hostile under the hood. Smiles and handshakes on the surface.

1. Tell them you have one other offer (or late stage interview). 2. Ask for more money and/or more shares (if you think the shares are any good).

by hhdhdbdb 2y ago
Yeah. Nah that makes you sound silly (at least for software jobs) unless there is a good reason for it, like currency conversions or peverse tax incentives. There is a tiny chance that asking for 133700 might get a smile at a smaller tech f

Why is fertility declining? I posit we are hitting non-food constraints. Political ones. Land use constraints. If you build millions of homes fertility will go up.

Bitcoin is a pure exanple thay shows the limit to energy consumption is how much money people have to throw at it. And if that money is thrown into generating more energy it is a cycle. There is no stomach size and human reproduction constr

How is this a narrow niche? Chain of thought type operations is in this "niche". Also anything where the value is in the follow up chat not the one shot.

A gravitational wave requires an event like a black hole merger, or basicially somerhing to move and change the field, right? In this case, how does the fact that a big object is still influencing space/time around it communicate that

I think I said a lot more than TFA on those points.

Google can't please all of the sites all of the time, or all the visitors. It is too big to evem worry about that 4k a day clicks for one site. It is like us optimizing the expense of 0.01c. It makes a difference when that 0.01c is an

I must be the exception! A big survey on this would be interesting to go from anecdotes to data.

Any timing attacks possible on a virtualized system using dedupe? Eg find out what my neighbours have installed. Or if the data before an SSH key is predictable, keep writing that out to disk guessing the next byte or something like that.

Thanks for the reply. These are compelling points. I agree not to fail on insert too by the way. The insert is sort of an enqueuing action. I was debating if a microservice should process that queue. Since you are a PaaS the distinction mig

LLMs make my job as a software engineer even more secure. Most of what I do is social and/or understand what is going on. LLMs are a tool to reduce mental load when in VSCode on some tasks. They are like the pilot's autopilot. LLM

I dont see a young/old divide when it comes to AI. Altough there is a young/old divide in familial responsibilies and willingness to be a chip on the VC's roulette table.

That is arguable because while it is a calculated field, it is not a pure one (IO is required), and not necessarily idempotent, not atomic and not guaranteed to succeed. It is certainly convenient for the end user, but it hides things. What

Pretty smart. Why is the DB api the abstraction layer though? Why not two columns and a microservice. I assume you are making async calls to get the embeddings? I say that because it seems n unsual. Index would suit sync better. But async t
