You are neither funny, nor well informed.

The eloquence of numbers is pitiless; thanks for summing them up. There are players filing for IPOs who don't want to lose appeal while contrasted to open-weight counterparts, which can be run on prems, or accessed as a service offered for a bargain.

Or, are we witnessing reverse-benchmaxxing? Meaning that first some entities let players optimise for a given benchmark, then they update the measurement methodology so as to retain some players on the top ranks, while dropping others. As former Italian prime minister, and highly controversial public figure, Giulio Andreotti once remarked "Thinking the worst is a sin, but you’re often right."

It doesn't work very well, in my experience. I have entered my hometown, which happens to have a Wikipedia entry. Local Wikipedia listed nearby entries, but omitted the Wikipedia page of the town itself, alongside other Wikipedia entries related to the same place. So, I tried looking up a nearby town, and see whether the pages related to my hometown would eventually show up, but they didn't. The pages involved have the coordinates populated.

It is not enough banning ads; it is necessary to outlaw the profiling to take place in the first place. In fact, today's profiling remains a viable business regardless of any ads placed downstream, because bulk data gets routinely purchased for surveillance purposes.

How would you characterise the despicable nobodies who flag a post linking a well documented NY Times article, relevant to the professional lives of most of us? Be creative.

To me it is painful to see part of the former twittersphere now engaging more on LI than in the past. We would deserve better alternatives.

While they describe how GDP is shared between workers and capital in the three reference scenarios, they don't offer political economy ideas about how wealth redistribution shall be rethought, and the role of the State, if any. If a share of knowledge workers are about to be driven out of market, the real consequences of this deserves deeper reflection.

It would be good if they could, but the U.S. never consented to the court's authority, and the U.S. government maintains that the ICC has no jurisdiction over American citizens or personnel. We are living a multi-tier world, where there are entities that can be held accountable, and others not so.

Yes, this is a tactic some companies resort to in order to incentive resignations. However, as you correctly highlight, this typically results in a loss of talents. AFAIK, Intel is already experiencing challenging times. Attracting – and retaining – new talents is especially hard to do, when the job marketplace learns about this peculiar work culture that prioritises paying dividents to talent retention. I would be very happy to be proven mistaken, for the sake of friends working at Intel.

No. Employees are neither VCs, nor credit institutions, nor social benefactors, nor non-profit, nor pro-bono volunteers. They work for a wage – And, yes, first hired that joined the ranks of executives with a vetted interest in the company (e.g. stock options) are already something other. Paying the wage is an obligation, if the employers want the work to be provided. Risks – and the associated rewards - are primarily with the investors. A work culture that shifts the risks onto workers has to be rethought.

If I were an Intel employee I would never accept a pay cut "justified" by the company's willingness to pay dividends. Investors get dividends when the management creates a reasonable amount of profits, not when employees have to waive their dues to do investors a favor.

Interesting op-ed. I support the remark about how the scientific community made science a team sport – for no good scientific reason.

However the claim "[the approach] was flawed in a way that undermined its efficacy and resulted in thousands if not millions of preventable deaths" is not demonstrated in the article. Conversely there were countries (e.g. Italy) where the epidemiological distribution of SARS-CoV-2 and the determinants (e.g. risk factors such as young and old people living together in the same households) were costing lives, that if regarded in the thousands would be grossly underestimated.

Keeps refreshing with Safari on macOS.

You have a short sequence of stills in the Wyckoff's footage linked somewhere else here. Rapatronic cameras – Wyckoff explains – where typically mounted in a rack of six.

A back of envelope calculation for the shutter speed of a Pimoroni LCD shutter [1] suggests 1/15s is the fastest speed available. [2]

Well, this is something that happens pretty much often in a number of verticals. Just think about how cars, even the most sophisticated, look when compared to the prototypes exhibited by the their manufacturers years before at the car shows. Manufacturing is also about costs/margin tradeoffs.

That being said, having had the chance to tinker with those machines in the 1980s I can tell you that I owe them, and to my father, very much about my obsession for computer science.

In the early 1980s my father had in his office a couple of these Olivetti BCS 2025 [1], which share with the Bellini's TCV 250 some design ideas, such as the metal plane encapsulating the keyboard.

In a nutshell:

When I request new imagery my expectation is to have the copyright of the resulting image. Whilst I would have the need for high-resolution satellite images, I am not interested in acquiring licenses of any of them.

Probably most businesses will not charge any interaction with ChatGPT per se. They will either bill more abstract services (e.g., booking service, where ChatGPT will be hiding under hood of a support agent) or down to earth goods.
