is this comment written by ai?

I use it occasionally for classification and other tasks but I wouldn't trust those smaller models with the real work and for larger data processing it's too slow, e.g. a dataset I wanted to classify would've taken 56 days on my laptop vs just paying the cheap Luna prices to openai and getting it done in a few hours.
Honestly I have no idea what you are even replying to. My comment was essentially "The fund bet big and lost, but don't read it as him going bankrupt" as I saw many people interpret it that way.
I find the emotional charge in your message quite strange, and the "psychosis" might be you projecting something.
Nothing I wrote implies that I don't understand that distinction. What I'm saying is that despite this implosion he is still up ytd, so this liquidity crisis shouldn't be interpreted as him/his fund going bankrupt as many seem to want to read it.
>Even including July's losses, the fund remains up about 80% on the year
Spectacular blowup and a lesson on leverage, but let's not miss this line.
I wish I could block people on HN so I could stop seeing this armchair-reddit-activism.
Yeah, as opposed to the very pleasant living by the side of a steel mill and an oil refinery.
What is myopic is chasing social media "evil of the month" trends, instead of looking at the actual data.
>or with a doubling time of 5.8 years
So that in ~6 years they will account for 1%, and still a fraction of the percent of the world total energy use?
Yeah, data-centers are definitely the worst thing happening to the planet. You got your priorities straight.
AI data centers are what, half a percent of the world electricity consumption, if that, and an even smaller fraction of the total energy?
hn transformation into reddit continues
+1 to the op. This is one of the first things I thought about after using it for a few minutes. I have a large collection of local knowledge bases that I use through codex, having this real time thing be able to plug into it would be the killer feature, otherwise the utility is severely limited. I don't want to talk to it about the weather, I want to brainstorm about the things I am working on, which it currently knows nothing about.
>there is some truth about these memory stocks eventually reaching trillion dollar market caps
What do you mean "eventually"?
Samsung $1.529 T
SK Hynix $1.345 T
Micron $1.343 T
Same exact story here, they denied my account despite me sending them everything they requested, no explanation given. Went with OVH and had zero issues.
Are you using the instant model?
Same, and what made me finally quit reddit for good was realizing that on a given r/all page I was blocking 98+% of the content, to the point where it made me question why I am even bothering.
Exactly. I always found it strange when people assume that "hallucinations" are just some sort of a bug in the system, as if by you tweaking some code or training modality will produce an oracle of absolute truth incapable of making mistakes.
Also the human vision is backed by the general intelligence, which those cameras are very much not.
Still doesn't answer why you would need any crypto here. Why can't the USD transferred to stripe just be a record in an SQL database saying customer X has N USD in the account, and transferring that around could be done instantly at zero cost by changing an sql row.
>The desire to come and immigrate to the US has greatly diminished
Do you have any data to back up that claim?
E.g. the number of diversity lottery applicants (one of the easiest proxies to judge how many people express their interest in moving to the US) went up from 12 million in 2011 to almost 20 million last year.
>day-to-day life is mostly similar to life in the west
The "happy path" is, the major differences start when you have any kind of a problem, then not having any functional institutions makes the experience _very_ different from the west.
The pages are not static and require computation to serve, and there's more than one app on that same bare metal server, so it was negatively affecting the performance of a lot of my other stuff.
If I couldn't easily cut off the majority of that bot volume I probably would've shut down the app entirely.
I've some personal apps online and I had to turn the cloudflare ai bot protection on because one of them got 1.6TB of data accessed by the bots in the last month, 1.3 million requests per day, just non stop hammering it with no limits.
Both of those things could be solved by just talking to people, and talking to people does not require you to use addiction machines.
I keep in touch with my friends abroad by emailing them when I think about them, and I get long form responses on what they are up to, not whatever is the public image filtered stuff that they may or may not be posting somewhere.
And it's a self reinforcing downward loop as those deteriorating online spaces then completely drive away everyone with anything better to do
Or confidently declaring the _true_ motivations of companies/people, like they, the random internet person, for sure know why some company or a famous person are doing something, and express it as a statement of fact and an agreed upon common sense and not a speculation based on nothing.
Most seen on reddit but seems to be becoming commonplace on here as well.
Don't know if I'm biased but it seems there has been a slow but consistent and accelerating redditification of hacker news.
Why not find a job where hard work is valued, or start your own company?
