I've definitely noticed this anecdotally. Especially with Gemini Pro when providing long form textual references, providing many documents in a single context windows gives worse answers than having it summarize documents first, ask a

I did this route (sans the new Laos line, which was a bus at the time) in 2014. The world really was a different place. Shout out to 'The man in seat 61', couldn't have done it without it. https://www.seat61.com&#x

It's always interesting to note the waves of sponsors flow through youtube/podcasts. Raid, Nordvpn, recently Incogni. I wonder if the ad spend actually pays off for them, or if it's just VC dollars being shoveled into the fur

This seems to the most likely, and it's not unheard of, they have 'local regions' like osaka in Japan. Alternatively they could just stick a bunch of Outpost racks in the NYSE/NASDAQ data center and create an 'eXn.8

Just for fun, because it's hard to appreciate how strong a 256bit ECDSA key is. Base Numbers: - 2*128 guesses on average - public state of the art for ECDSA on an FPGA is 1315tps [0] - retail price of said fpga $10,000 [1] - total net
