Growing up in Florida. Living in the Bay..... Can confirm.

You must have forgotten the world has rules and weight classes. But reality hits hard and doesn't care. The USA with this administration is not to be tested. If there is anything you can say about trump. The world is actually terrified at what he will do because he will do anything he thinks is right. Not what is. But he's controlling the strongest most intelligent military on the planet. If you think war or capturing prisoners as another country is safe. You're dumber than the ring leader himself.

Does this actually mean anything or correlate with anything? Or does this basically say that 40% of Americans not driving age smoke weed or use edibles or THC of some kind at this point monthly? I don't but it seems pretty likely to not be that far off.

Open AI as big as problem as they keep trying to live in the future. The problem is eventually these language models are going to be sufficient for most people and they're going to be capable of being ran on their personal computers. A few years ago, 16 GB of vram couldn't really do s**. Today I can actually use it for decent amount of stuff. I do use my apis. But I mean you fast forward a few more years if memory doesn't become ridiculously expensive. Everyone's going to be able to have their own language model they won't need to pay a monthly fee. By the time they get where they want to be. 99% of people are going to be able to run it personally.

Of course we're still going to need Enterprise level language models. We are still going to be using those apis. But significantly less often. Imagine having opus 4.5 level abilities of coding on your personal computer at all times. Within 2 years that'll fun on the average GPU.

They are going to have a really harsh reality in the future. Nothing against GPT. It is a great language model. I am having some issues with codex and 5.2. it likes to think too much. But it's not bad especially when you drop thinking after creating the task list.

I don't think they're worth that much though because of all that. They aren't really holding that much other than assets. Are they really holding on to 800 billion in assets? I guess you could argue that the vram prices have went up so maybe lol

I feel 80% really would've made the headline better.

Lol I think San Francisco gave out 55k tickets in the last 45 days with these cameras. Don't worry, coming to a highway near you soon!

Dumb question, but can't they get around that considering they are looking for people whom are not US citizens?

I didn't expect this level of ignorance here. Maybe reddit but this is crazy.

As a person who knows way too much about way too many things. I am fully aware of this myself, however, the headline was shifted in a way that makes you perceive there's a problem caused by said person falling into water. So yes, logic tells you no problem but haven't recognition tells you they're trying to announce a problem. At the same time there was no problem.

It's actually not bad the issue is you need perfect prep and conditions.

We don't pour concrete underneath covers very often. They need it to be perfectly broom, swept and clean. They also need to cover over it just in case to moisture humidity gets down. Once it prints it does stay.

Dusty is a little bit better. The benefit is HP works off of Trimble so if you're in that ecosystem.

Trimble changed their business model so they've increased their profits but they haven't gained any more clients. Essentially they've learned how to double how much they make off of everyone.

You can shoot control off some of these generic models now that cost like four grand and they work just as good. That's less than Trimble subscription cost. I can only imagine the hp bundle coming soon.

Lol the pace things change. If there was an accurate time travel movie it would be more of a comedy. I don't care where you're from. Which language you speak. Even Chinese has changed. But any language especially English has changed so much it would be a foreign language if you went back.

Wiki has been dying such a slow painful death. I feel bad. Especially because I was the first generation to have the transition from encyclopedias to wiki. Rip wiki, it'll go down in history for sure.

Those are midwits. Truly intelligent people see past the facade and don't really go into the topics with others outside of subject matter expert groups. Because the areas being focused on by the general population or media are so deviated from the cause or solution.

So, are they suppressed? I highly doubt that's the proper word.

Less ambitious? Perhaps, but not suppressed.

Back when gpt 3.5 was released I was testing it for translating Tongan. A language that wasn't even on Google. It was doing okay. It lacks certain formalities and sort of contextual understandings in other languages like Tagalog or Spanish. But I noticed that if I put it into a character that is a native Filipino or Honduran. Or Tongan. It does do better. But gpt 5 really is leaps of evolution ahead compared to 3.5. It actually does really well now.

Maybe you wait for all the dust to settle and then like not people realizing their entire economy is in shambles before addressing their future potential as a superpower. . Superpower requires lots of money. Something Argentina does not currently have. Their entire business structure and government structure is not changing. They are being bailed out and whenever you enable somebody to fail they become dependent.

Could they be a superpower? Yeah. But it's more likely some small country in Africa does first with an investor and AI.

Imagine how many clever loopholes her discovered with a 100k Visa. We essentially just don't make the money now lol.

I'm pretty sure it's a mixture between this and the fact that EVS don't really break down. You have the same amount of them for sale a few years later. Versus gas cars. You have half of them around being parted out. So they do go up in value oddly.

They've pretty much just saturated their own market. Everyone needs a car. Not everyone needs an EV. If you have a garage then yes it makes perfect sense to have an EV. But if you don't and you live in an apartment or you live in a shared house. It's not really going to work for you. People who have their own house don't want old cars. So they basically just have a bunch of older car sitting around that nobody really wants even though they technically do have better value. A $30,000 Tesla and a $30,000 BMW? You'd have to be biased to think that it makes logical sense for the BMW. Sure! It's 40. It's fun but the cost of maintenance. The reliability.... It's not really a family car in the same way. It appeals to more people, but it's not more logical. However, you don't need a garage to charge your BMW. I don't care how fast the car charges. I don't want to go to a charger. I've had my car for 4 years and I've only been to a supercharger twice.

But I fully understand why not everyone has them. Every time I pass by a mechanic shop an oil change place like gas station. I just think of how much wasted time that people use on their cars thinking that it's more convenient.

But but for them in fact it may actually be. Imagine sitting at a charger for 20 mins 2x a week if you drive a lot and use sentry.

That's hilarious. Let's just replace TSMC while we are at it!!

Most of this isn't stocks lol. When somebody says they're investing 100 million in Nvidia. That's them saying I'm buying 100 million in services. Such as using the cloud compute or server. Etc.

They don't just buy a stock and say hey. We invest in you. Lol why is it illegal. If you need to buy video cards right now for your business and you're doing machine learning. If you could go to one person with an unlimited budget, who do you go to, nvidia... Why? Is that because of insider training or is that because of logic? So if Nvidia says. Open AI. We really could use a lot of your API. We are spending an absolute fortune. You need our gpus. How about we make something work? Now negotiating begins.

They probably shouldn't announce this. I get that they're trying to do it as an example. But, now kids are gunna know how to download a local LLM and do it. At least this way you can catch them one at a time.

I don't know how to edit but the original budget for the bridge was only supposed to be like 50 to 70 million. Every single day there is an RFI.

As a bridge Carpenter, you are correct. I have never seen a construction project of that size for that price completed in that amount of time in the USA. Not even close. I've done projects that are worth over 20 billion today. I've done projects as small as a sidewalk repair. There's no way you can turn out that scope of work for that price at that scale in America it's not even close. They have to be lying about the budget there's no way.

You're not a bridge Carpenter and it shows. .

This project is beautiful. This is an incredible work of art. It might not be the longest, but have you ever tried to pull cable over 2,000 ft hole? Have you ever seen what it takes to actually do those columns? The work looks nice very nice design. It fits with the landscape very well. And the fact that it cost only 140 million is an incredible. For a comparison if you look up one of the bridges I did. We spent 280 million on this We spent 280 million on this

But is it the profound autism or is there something else? I think we actually need to define the term a little differently for mental retardation and bring it back. Is he profoundly autistic with an average IQ? Or is he profoundly autistic and essentially incapable of communication? It's not the autism that's the problem. He might also be autistic but a lot of people started labeling retardation as autism. Which really tainted the term autistic for normal people. So I do actually agree with the shift. Not that they should take anything away from the profoundly autistic. They should offer them more. But there should be a program for that type of person. Assisting them greater than the autistic programs. Autistic help should be more about understanding the internal issues we face on a daily basis and how to deal with them. How does that help someone who can't communicate? The help he needs is probably different and more extreme than what an autistic person needs.

It's like saying I can't run. My arm hurts. Then you say. What do you mean? You're a quadriplegic!! He's like oh yea that too but I can feel a tingle in my arm. Treating the arm isn't fixing the problem lol. If that person was an advocate for treating tingles in their arm. You would think it's kind of silly because if they were to treat that. It doesn't really help the quadriplegic part. But he keeps saying it will. It's not that I don't believe he has a problem with his arm. I'm sure he does. But the problem on why he can't run isn't that.

Literally just a consultant labeled different. Clean code. Create a job site efficiency. Same thing. Nothing ground breaking. It's expected.

So since weight is so reduced could you not grab the person who's unconscious hands and use your foot? I mean it's not ideal but in reality wouldn't CPR on earth be easier with machines too? It's not exactly an easy process if done correctly

Math is like language. You can have a translation book and sure it'll work if needed. But being fluent teaches you about an entire new world.

Math teaches you how to think internally in an interesting way like algorithms of thought. Physics teaches you how the world works reading it is one thing. Understanding the language is where the beauty lies

Today you will learn what diminishing returns are :)

You can only utilize so many people or so much action within a business or idea.

Essentially it's throwing more stupid at a problem.

The reason there are so many layoffs is because of AI creating efficiency. The thing that people don't realize is it's not that one AI robot or GPU is going to replace one human at a one to one ratio. It's going to replace the amount of workload one person can do. Which in turn gets rid of one human employee. It's not that you job isn't taken by AI. It's started. But how much human is needed is where the new supply demand lies and how long the job lasts. There will always be more need for more creative minds. The issue is we are lacking them.

It's incredible how many software engineers I see walking around without jobs. Looking for a job making $100,000 to $200,000 a year. Meanwhile, they have no idea how much money they could save a business. Their creativity was killed by school.

They are relying on somebody to tell them what to do and when nobody's around to tell anybody what to do. They all get stuck. What you are seeing isn't a lack of capability. It's a lack of ability to control direction or create an idea worth following.

I suppose teaching mine gsis and point clouds and connecting it to the world gsis map is a bad idea?

What if, the software is significantly more robust than Dodge Chevy Honda or Kia. But! Check this out what if you were offered an additional layer of security? You can choose it or not. It's an option. I didn't see these being easier to steal than a car using a canbus.... If it is. Sure free upgrade. But if this is improving a system that is already less vulnerable than 50% of vehicles. I can see why they'd charge.
