What's the difficulty of a 1GW datacenter in space?

Why don't you ask your AI, the way you did with your earth-based scenario?

Why restrict yourself to 100% solar? Solar augmented by grid is pretty great.

Also, you very conspicuously avoided talking about the difficulty/impact of a 1GW datacenter in space. One might suspect your motives aren't as impartial as you seem to think.

Of course. And, if you're caught doing 55 in a school zone, I'd guess you're a little more likely to commit murder than someone who tries to always follow the law. It speaks to character.

They both involve institutionalized lying.

I'm tired of the framing in the media these days.

"Mythos will end the world!!"

"How?"

"By finding a bunch of wide open security holes that have existed for years."

Oookay. Is this a Mythos problem? Or a lazy/greedy/uncaring people problem?

You can! Subscribe to a Z.ai coding plan.

In addition, Mojang and King will now report directly to me.

Darn it! The ONE studio that I really wanted them to set free and go back to how well things worked before, and they tighten their grip. Whyyyy?

This is now out in the August 31 release!

Almost a year ago, that is SO COOL! I'll be trying CoMaps for store hours now.

AMEN! 100% agree.

Plus a reasonably inexpensive super low-latency interconnect.

And how much can you buy a 128GB Mac Studio for now? Go look. I think you'll be shocked.

This is an odd comment. Pins are seriously expensive. Companies don't just throw them in for fun. Usually they're necessary for signal integrity or packaging constraints.

There's one more for me: reliable store hours.

This IS a criticism of the end product.

If they paid the 35% that I pay, then it would be fair.

It sounds like you think billionaires should pay close to 0%?

it should be trivial regardless.

So should nuclear fission reactors. The concept is absurdly simple.

In practice, however ...

those are trivial problems in the well (and oil) drilling industry.

Ah yes, an industry well known for its adherence to safety standards and never having surprising blowouts.

Sounds like people building it found a way to cheap out that was technically within regulation.

Vibed infrastructure? That sounds like it undoes a lot of Nix's advantages.

I can't tell you the amount of times I've pulled a precompiled tool and it just doesnt work because of one quirk of their packaging or another.

This is a serious problem in Nix too. I often trip over buggy and abandoned Nix packages. Nix often makes it easy to roll back or work around them, but they're absolutely there.

Ah yes, the ol' GitHub method of reporting. "When we're up, we have lots of nines!"

And built well, which has been a source of big delays in the past.

Owing to spite or just a foul mood, have you ever peeled one of those stupid Calvin stickers off of a pickup truck?

I figure that, long after the strip is forgotten, those decals are my ticket to immortality.

(from the Mentalfloss article linked a few comments down)

Yeah, so? Turns out the papers were bluffing/complaining. This sort of thing happens in many parts of life.

If each Bluray is 2 hours long, that's 4.5 years of nonstop watching.

No upside whatsoever? Clearly you're not an insider trader.

How is a trusted device associated with a human being? I'm pretty sure the walls of hundreds of bot phones are running trusted Android.

Just that you're treating LoC and complexity as useful metrics, when these days those come for free. Or for $3 per Mtok, almost free.

No, they're saying that it was misleading. OP said "I'm building an open source Google Photos alternative" and surprisingly didn't say "based on Immich". This dramatically changes the evaluation of "open-noodle".

We're now in an era where LoC is easy and design is hard[1]. Starting with an existing project means using an existing design, where someone else has already made many/most of the difficult decisions.

10Xing code without caring about design/UX/DX is trivial. Literally anybody with a token budget can do it. But they probably won't ship a good project. Not with current frontier models.

[1]: design has always been hard. But now it's even more difficult because of code veloocity and because LLMs are happier to work with bad code than humans. It's never been easier to go deep into rabbit holes without noticing a single issue.

Perfect OK Boomer response. If this is parody then I salute you! So good.
