If the marketing naming is to be believed, in 1.4nm vs 4nm you'd be able to fit ~twice the transistors in your chip. That's twice the cores, twice the cache... That usually makes it faster.

The intent may be also seen as pro-education: "they're free to protest elsewhere without annoying other students"

Can't verify from the low quality photo in the article.

This [1] press release from the Southern Environmental Law Center hints to a possible reason - they may be migrating from small to bigger turbines:

> Aerial images obtained by SELC revealed 35 turbines at the site in March (...) while the company has removed some smaller-sized turbines, it has recently installed three larger turbines

It turns out 248.5 days is ~2^31 hundredths of a second.

Was this the uptime of the Air India plane? Or it's just speculation?

From a quick web search I can find that there are book review sites that allow users to enter and rate verbatim "quotes" from books. This one [1] contains ~2000 [2] portions of a sentence, a paragraph or several paragraphs of Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone.

Could it be plausible that an LLM had ingested parts of the book via scrapping web pages like this and not the full copyrighted book and get results similar to those of the linked study?

> won't hold up in court

Does that even matter? because at 4:50 on the video you can clearly read:

    "You agree to give up your right to go to court to assert or defend your rights under these Terms" 
... in the "binding arbitration and no class action" terms that you need to Agree to.
Re:DeepSeek proves the future of LLMs is open-source on Wednesday January 29, 2025 @12:34PM (#42868218)
There is no way to decompile an LLM's weights and obtain a somewhat meaningful, reproducible source, like with a program binary as you say. In fact, if we were to compare both in this way that would make a program binary more "open source".
Re:OpenAI reveals why ChatGPT won't say "David Mayer" on Tuesday December 03, 2024 @03:16PM (#42310794)
These names show a "right to forget" notice when you google them. Crashing or completely bailing out when they're about to be generated by the LLM sure looks like a glitch, or somebody forgot that multiple people can have the same name. Anyways, these are now being Streissand efected due to this behavior, the opposite of the intended result of the legislation.

How can you even have democracy without freedom of speech?

How can you freely choose who to vote without free exchange of information?

Please can we rollback everything to scenario #1 already? I'm starting to think that #2 and #3 are actively counter-productive and the pendulum is going to swing back too hard.
65173 rulings in 230 days by 11 people. That's 25.76 rulings per person per day if we ignore holidays and weekends.

They can't possibly read the cases, is this a kangaroo court?

I mean, it works properly, but a bit slower. The driver just detects if the kind of application currently running (i.e. a game) needs to be confined to only one CCD.

The core to core latency between the two CCDs seems to have doubled from the 7xxx series according to some latency benchmarks I saw yesterday.

Re:WHO Declares Global Emergency over New Mpox Outbreak on Wednesday August 14, 2024 @02:12PM (#41248927)
According to Wikipedia the virus is still called "monkeypox virus" and the disease "mpox disease". One reason for the change may have been to have different names for these different things.
Nuclear fusion is renewable.

Nuclear fission with breeder reactors is renewable.

Nuclear fission with conventional reactors and U-235 fuel is not renewable.

Well, there's the problem, drag increases with the square of speed and temperature affects battery capacity. Maybe they tested with the AC turned off too.

Cool, but it could be better if some of the paintings didn't have so much light reflected from the roof, like in room 12. Maybe the camera should have been higher?
In the democratic ones it's just a ban on campaign ads and opinion polls for the 24-48h before an election and on the election day.

I would prefer not to consume this with my drink [2].

Not every seemingly positive action is actually positive. Second order effects must be always considered.

Instead of obtaining the enemy coordinates or sniffing their transmissions you're suggesting to waste ammo on shooting down 5000+ LEO satellites?
It seems like the CTO was made aware of the situation and 15 minutes later the accounts were un-suspended. [1] https://nitter.poast.org/elonmusk/status/1744766353494376749 Probably some automated system or mass report (speculating, of course).

I wish Youtube live had chat replay to see people's reaction, it doesn't seem to work when the stream is still live.

If they make a version with only three photodiodes this patent will not apply.
Even on a 1080p monitor the 2160p version of that video is much clearer than the 1080p version, the timelapses look blocky, compressed.
