Yes, Jonathan Gorard is a Wolfram Physics alumni

On yesterday’s live stream[0] on Stephen Wolfram’s Twitch the team went through several improvement proposals to functions in WolframAlpha, including QuantumCircuitOperator which is a variant of a String Diagram.

Before this I didn’t know Stephen hosted “Live CEOing” sessions and now I wish this was the norm!

I’ll pay $xx a month if I can talk to Groq the way I can talk to ChatGPT with my AirPods
This video is worth watching for the soundtrack alone. I came across Eugene’s channel before but somehow I missed this gem!
Re:About iMessage Contact Key Verification on Saturday January 27, 2024 @11:22AM (#39156816)
I just noticed this setting on macOS System Settings > Apple ID > Contact Key Verification (at the bottom):

>Verify who you are messaging with by comparing contact verification codes in person or over the phone. In conversations with people who also have contact key verification turned on, you will see a message if contact key verification detects an issue or is turned off.

From the article

>The tool is built entirely on Cloudflare Workers, and all sanitization is done client-side which means Cloudflare never sees the full contents of the session token.

Ah. Such a good thing to be devoid of any disabilities! A bug is not a bug if you can turn it off after you explicitly turned it on ;-)
Wow. Glad to see that Kipkay is still making videos! The DIY laser with a DVD burner[0] must be one of the first videos I watched on YouTube.

Re:Making AMD GPUs competitive for LLM inference on Thursday August 10, 2023 @08:58AM (#37075583)
Has there been a driver release from AMD since geohot had a call with their CEO? Otherwise I don’t see how you can attribute this entirely to him.
Re:Making AMD GPUs competitive for LLM inference on Thursday August 10, 2023 @08:53AM (#37075531)
He shows the git patch fix delivered by AMD engineers. The root cause is not explained and the change itself is about 2-3 SLoC — his frustration, what you call meltdown, is not about the interaction with AMD rather how troublesome it was to get AMD’s demo scripts to run on AMD’s chips.

Sounds like what you need is a change of environment because staying too long in such a toxic place will hurt you professionally and mentally. Have you considered relocating? I would start by sending out resumes and cold emails to companies you like.

Just buy it. Look at it as an investment for your future mental health.

Indeed. This is not the case in Safari, for example, where every incognito tab is isolated from the rest.
