I agree, it looks nice in my opinion. It doesn’t look like the house itself is crooked. It’s just asymmetrical furniture, which I find fun to look at!

To be fair, speed is relative. Imagine a plane flies at 500 km/h and is pursued by another plane at the same speed. If the first plane fires a rocket backwards that accelerates for a total of 200 km/h, then for an observer on the ground the rocket will still do 300 km/h, in the same direction as the planes. However, the guys in the second plane will see a rocket approaching them at 200 km/h.
Wind resistance, aerodynamics, etc. will have an impact, but it can work.
Am I missing something? I thought the outage was caused by CrowdStrike and had nothing to do with Microsoft or Windows?
They say there are 16 screens inside, each with a 16k resolution. Such a screen would have 16x as many pixels as a 4k screen. The GPUs power those as well.
For the number of GPUs it appears to make sense. 150 GPUs for the equivalent of about 256 4k screens means each GPU handles ±2 4k screens. That doesn’t sound like a lot, but it could make sense.
The power draw of 28 MW still seems ridiculous to me though. They claim about 45 kW for the GPUs, which leaves 27955 kW for everything else. Even if we assume the screens are stupid and use 1 kw per 4k segment, that only accounts for 256 kW, leaving 27699 kW. Where the fuck does all that energy go?! Am I missing something?
Does life suck, or not?
Yeah that’s what I thought too. The horrors are described well, they just typically don’t get described through their physical form. As you say, because the human mind cannot comprehend it. There is a lot more focus on impressions, comparisons, and effects, rather than on a real physical description. Personally I thought it was quite neat!
AI is a field of research in computer science, and LLM are definitely part of that field. In that sense, LLM are AI. On the other hand, you’re right that there is definitely no real intelligence in an LLM.
That’s a good tip, but I assume he meant he drinks juice of burned beans, rather than burned juice of beans. After all, coffee beans do need to be roasted (burned) before you use them!
You couldn’t really do that with beer, because beer is typically carbonated and thus you’ll need a very strong bag inside of the box. So strong that you’ll end up with a can or bottle.
It would also be very hard to compete with products that are this mature. Linux, Windows, and macOS have been under development for a long time, with a lot of people. If you create a new OS, people will inevitably compare your new immature product with those mature products. If you had the same resources and time, then maybe your new OS would beat them, but you don’t. So at launch you will have less optimizations, features, security audits, compatibility, etc., and few people would actually consider using your OS.
LLM don’t have logic, they are just statistical language models.
They are very busy charging an arm and a leg for crappy software with shit support.
According to this article, an average smartphone uses 2W when in use. That number will largely be dependent on the screen and SOC, which can be turned off or be placed in a lower power state when the phone isn’t actively being used. (The 5W - 20W figure is for charging a phone.)
With 8 of these cells, you’ll have 800μW, or 0.0008W, and you need 2W. You will need to add a few more batteries… About 19,992 more. If 8 of these batteries are about the same size as a regular smartphone battery, you will need the equivalent of 2,500 smartphone batteries to power just one phone.
Too bad they don’t say how much the new batteries weigh! It would have been fun to see…
If we ballpark it and assume something the size of a regular smartphone battery is 50g (1.7 oz), then our stack of 20,000 of these new batteries could be about 125kg (275 lbs).
I won’t be replacing any of my batteries just yet.
As others already said, Chromium definitely isn’t the first or only one to use a blue logo. There is a theory that colours influence the way we perceive a brand, for example this article explains that idea.
Blue is supposed to convey trustworthiness and maturity. A lot of companies like that, so you tend to see a lot of blue.
You may also be experiencing the frequency illusion. If you specifically noticed the blue in Chromium’s logo, it would make sense that you suddenly started noticing the blue in other logos as well!
It is correct, because ‘nothing’ is indeed written in stone!
Prices always trend upwards. That is inflation, and our current system requires inflation to function.
