He was done in by a career prosecutor who just wanted to use him as a stepping stone in their path. They had little or no humanity.

He is a fields medal winner who is looking to see how AI can further mathematics research. I’m unsure of what your specific issue with that is.

This is for mathematicians and not software engineers. You look for ease of use and familiarity with tooling. If I was a mathematician looking for a simple solution, I would go for GitHub too. Software engineering concerns don’t really app

A product is what people (or now agents) can use to carry out any activity. There is a lot of hand wringing in the software space about ai code being a mess - but from a product perspective code quality doesn’t matter. It’s the reliability

I think in social sciences it maybe more of an inability/reluctance of the domain group to use the mathematics as opposed to the mathematics being absent. Take category theory for example. The initial mathematics appeared in 1942. The

Not true. Novel mathematical methods precede their application by at least a decade and widespread use by about a century. Calculus was invented in 1670, it was about 1680-1700 till it started actually being used in astronomy. The uptake wa

This is a really weird comparison. The Chan Zuckerberg foundation is nowhere involved with any war. All they’re doing is making money available for research. In which universe is $280m not enough?

I think an FDE is a post sales thing. It’s basically the sale has been done and as a company you don’t have enough expertise to scale what you bought.

I used to do that when my children were little. However, in another 3 years your child will not require you as much anymore and your downtime duration will improve. My problem has been that once I started doing the audiobooks/podcasts,

Does meta have the research talent to create a SOTA frontier model? Yann LeCun has left Meta and I don’t think either alexandr wang or zuck have enough credibility to attract talent to create one.

The small wealth tax will be spent not on people but on growing the government’s bureaucracy. Take highly taxed states (eg CA) and no tax/low tax states (eg TX). You pay more for in state tuition for your children in the UC system as o

It depends. If one is Iraqi and Saddam asks him to be his chef, they're not refusing. They're probably dead if they refuse. Chef's are also sourced from other countries without disclosing the actual client. Once they land the

I don't think the global transaction router is a GLB. Having dabbled in this for high traffic telemetry gathering infrastructure, I will hazard a guess and say the "router" isn't a GLB. The router needs to be shard-aware

It doesn't make sense even for academia. Reproducibility is an issue and as we've seen with recent fraudulent claims in major publications - it's what is going to be used for verification of research. Many years back while in

I think it’s more of an ease of use issue. When I was in grad school, I used to cycle my work between dev on a MacBook and heavy processing work on a desktop. This was 2011/2012. Dropbox helped here. They had a Linux client and a Mac c

Islam is worse than Christianity. They preach hate to begin with. At least Christianity started peacefully before being consumed by the conversion mafia. Judaism I have nothing against as a religion. They don’t proselytize.

Why? Microsoft probably just hasn’t prioritized nimbus participation over their other construction work. They probably haven’t yet constructed the correct subsidiary structure or key sharing agreements that allow them to participate either.
