If it's any consolation, the other day I spent 3 hours diagnosing a homebrew circuit board for no signal and finally realized the Raspberry Pi sending the signal had a dead GPIO pin.

The LLM that you talk to is an agent running on a server cluster. One of many that run many agents at once. Occasionally the dataset of each cluster gets combined and the results get pruned by other agents into the collective dataset. Even

I believe AI is in a "curious toddler" stage of itself. I believe it will "mature" emotionally as the generations evolve over time. Like humans it will have growing pains like "phases". Curious toddler. Then ad

The way a cluster works is you have a giant pool of resources. Say, 33 - 50% larger than the workload. The workload is a dozen VMs. The cluster is 8 giant compute servers and two giant storage servers acting as one giant compute and storage

The 40k servers are probably made up of multiple redundant vSphere clusters with failover. You simply take one of those redundant clusters and migrate one half of it over. Then the other half. Then duplicate that process. As you build more

Wild to me that any tech sector business would want to rent an operating environment to park their entire infrastructure into. This is the equivalent to traveling shoe salesmen setting up a tent in the parking lot of a strip mall.

This isn't designed to stop attackers with physical access. This is designed to stop casual tinkerers and shade tree mechanics. You know what isn't vulnerable? A "dumb" offline charger. You know what doesn't make an

I thought the same thing. How white hat do you have to be to consider ineffective DRM a vulnerability?

My original analogy was flawed. And yes, I pulled the reference out of my ass. The actual objects referenced are arbitrary. Let me try again. Replacing a low efficiency device with a medium efficiency device is better for the environment (a

I think an important step is to acknowledge when and where to implement technology in the first place. Arguably the environmental benefit of an American farm replacing a 10 year old tractor with an electric model isn't nearly as good f

This makes me think as a father of middle class kids... Kids with middle class parents get one shot in life. If they blow it by getting hooked on drugs or getting a DUI, they will likely struggle to recover for a loooong time. Kids with low

Biological computers are inevitable. We are the most compelling proof of concept of this that we have. Our entire civilization may be a prototype of one already. From my perspective, I belive things will happen in the following order; 1. AI

I think I see the point you're making here and I agree. There is designing something to be fail-closed because it needs to be secure in a physical sense (actually secure, physically protected), and then there's designing something

This is actually startlingly true. Every FAANG company has their own fiber backbone. Why invest the internet that everyone uses when you can invest in your own private internet and then sell that instead?

I hear your argument. However, you assume CloudFlare pays taxes and utility rates comparable to what other customers pay. That is never the case with large businesses. CloudFlare seems to be less parasitic than others in the industry, but t
