Of this 194 billion, how much are one-offs? If intel builds one plant (in 2011) for 43 billion and average investmenr in 2011 was 109 billion, then intel is like 45% of all.

So in 2023 maybe there was some other big one off?

Of course a factory is still a factory, so the one-off thing is a bit misleading, but what I try to say that it seems one big factory takes 40% of investment. What would be the spending for 10? 400 bilion?
One is still better than zero though and probably has subcontractors.

Nobody cares about Russia unless it invades its neighbors or tries to fuck things up for the rest in another way. Russia is a gas station with nuclear weapons that is inherently self limited due to its kleptocracy.

And again, the US cant even be bothered to kill off Russia by supplying some insignificant amount of aid and you think that there would be boots on the ground?
The State of Boilerplates
So i've been seeing a lot of Next.JS SAAS boilerplates, but they're quite expensive.

I still don't understand how people will pay $150+ for them.

I planned on making a boilerplate for a SAAS because why not, but how is it going to be different?

Why it's different from the rest?

I'll be honest its just way cheaper! That's the only difference. I'm gonna include all the functionality that the other boilerplates have and then some, but it's going to be way cheaper than the rest of them.

I'm also adding an open source version to get people up and running with the basic functionality.

I'm not sure what the price is going to be yet, but i've set up a wait list for people to sign up.

You must be thinking why i'm doing it so cheap, i'm a student and I don't really care about the money that much.

The problem is that there are no qualities, that distinguish a simulation from reality. For all we know, we might as well be living in the worst simulation with unrealistic physics and poor graphics, which was made by a regular student on a weekend, who received a C- for effort.

If the simulation is already simulating all the particles in the universe, then it doesn't matter what humanity does with all those particles. With access to all the particles in the universe humanity could easily simulate every single particle in a smaller universe at a high tick rate. A simulated humanity could even easily simulate every particle in a bigger universe, if we remove the requirement to render the world at a high tick rate.
It's somewhere between "moderately" and "hella" illegal just about everywhere in the northeast, but people still do it all the time.

The Confusingly Strong Economy Told in Three Stories
I came across the R65F11 I have from Burgess Macneal, who was using FORTH in the early 1980s to build a digitally controlled audio mastering equalizer. For various reasons it never became a commercial product, but he'd saved all of his prototyping material.

Burgess had been using FORTH on his Ohio Scientific, so I suppose the transition to another 6502-core was probably pretty easy!

This is what I've wired up so far:

I lost weight thanks to trendweight and his 'The Hackers Diet' method of weight loss.

I had written him down as potential podcast guest, skimmed through some of his autodesk diaries and just never gotten around to reaching out to him.

Man, that sucks.

If you want to do his diet: get a smart scale and use TrendWeight. It doesn't tell you what to eat, but gives better data about whether you are on track or not then anything else I've seen. You weigh yourself daily, but only pay attention to a moving average and a future projection. That smooths out all noise in a scale measurement.

It uses an Exponential Moving Average, which I suspect is the real innovation. That smooths out the daily data with the longer term trends.

Optimizing Rust Build Speed with Sccache
This reminds me of one of the examples of what you can do with Huginn:

"Create Amazon Mechanical Turk workflows as the inputs, or outputs, of agents (the Amazon Turk Agent is called the "HumanTaskAgent"). For example: "Once a day, ask 5 people for a funny cat photo; send the results to 5 more people to be rated; send the top-rated photo to 5 people for a funny caption; send to 5 final people to rate for funniest caption; finally, post the best captioned photo on my blog."

Except it's old enough to use humans instead of AI, and blogs instead of short vertical videos.

I hate Spotify Podcasts with a passion.

The UI is lackluster, since it's just the same one from the normal Spotify Music experience.
Because they bought Joe Rogan they had to add video too and video is horribly implemented. There isn't even an obvious way to turn it off.
I consider myself tech-savy but I gave up trying to turn off and just switched to Apple Podcasts.

Podcasts and Music are not the same.

Please if you really want Podcasts to happen then, Spotify, make a separate App for it.
If you open the comments section you can click on the date of a comment and it will open it in the regular video UI.

Not sure about drag'n'drop. Also I've noticed that even when you're aware of the way USB passthrough in virt-manager GUI works that it seems to have some bugs.

I'm mostly interested in if I can use virtualbox accelerated video with kvm because virgl3d seems well behind in that area.
I would be willing to pay for an AI that it's not constantly worrying about my safety and ethics, it's very frustrating that even when I ask for tech related topics, Gemini it's holding information on the basis of actions that might cause harm to my devices.
> how does Intel and Global Foundries (IBM and AMD) do it well

They don't execute as well as TSMC or Samsung, but they're able to do it largely because they're too big to fail and they Defense related subsidizes (eg. Both Intel and GlobalFoundaries got $3Bil from the DoD for manufacturing Secure Enclave chips along with the CHIPS money).

Also, you don't need to be leading edge for most defense applications. i7 processors tend to be the norm for plenty of Western defense applications and don't need a sub-7nm type process that Intel/Samsung/TSMC are competing over.

The issue is companies like Samsung and TSMC would get a large amount of state subsidies, while the US only started getting back into that game in 2022-23.

TSMC began building the Chandler plant before they got the subsidizes needed to make it even more worthwhile.

> curious how the new TSMC plant Japan will do.

Probably pretty decent. Japanese and Taiwanese work culture is basically the same so they won't have to deal with labor unions or getting complaints about overwork.

I remember hearing a lot of the American workers hired by TSMC Chandler ended up leaving for Intel Chandler for that very reason.

Basically, TSMC wanted to replicate the exact kind of work and management culture that exists in Taiwan (eg. Long hours, dictatorial managers, power politics, relatively low wages, little to no stock compensation, etc)

While this story was initially against the hubris of controlling a complex system through incentives, since second or third order effect are hard to predict, I think over time the takeaway has degenerated into "you can't have any centrally pushed incentives".

Hacking My Apartment Intercom
Possibly, but I'm referring to how large-scale decisions were made. You can wipe out inequality with a sustained attack on the wealthy[0], but if you value all lives, not just the lives of your group, then you shouldn't see that as an option. If you value your pilots' lives you cannot invent kamikaze planes, nor even cheap planes. You have to invent F16s and the like, that improve their pilots' survivability at significant cost. That's the sort of thing I'm talking about.

Depends what you mean by incorrect. If the goal is to predict planetary movement, then epicycles might be a useful tool, just like an ocean-bearing moon model might be useful for predicting the wobble of Mimas. But as an explanation of what’s really happening, centering the universe on Earth is not a lot better than positing that kraken.

Without considering how memory is accessed (coalescing all accesses in a warp), your memory accesses will be up to the warp size slower (32x for NVIDIA). So basically, you can't write an even decently efficient kernel without considering this. And if you don't consider your available shared memory, that number will be much larger.

And these aren't advanced concepts, it's just the fundamental programming model for GPUs. It's on the level of "Access memory in predictable patterns, ideally sequentially" for CPUs. Everyone knows now that CPUs like arrays and sequential access. And GPUs like interleaved acccess, ideally in sizes no larger than your shared memory.
The idea of making it easier to download modes from HuggingFace, and serve them via llama-cpp-python could be a good contribution, but unfortunately there are two different names that the "Localllm" project introduces for itself - Localllm and the 'llm' command, both of them problematic for quite a few of reasons, perhaps they could just drop naming it anything to do with local?
E.g: Simon Willison's well known `llm` package on PyPI already uses the `llm` command. A name for the command that differs from the project name creates extra work for no good reason.

Look at this positioning Google use in the blog post: "localllm combined with Cloud Workstations revolutionizes AI-driven application development by letting you use LLMs locally on CPU and memory within the Google Cloud environment." - implying a local setup that's actually reliant on cloud resources is a contradiction.

Maybe they could rename it with a single name that has no conflicts or misleading terms that makes it clear it's to help setup and run inference without confusing the matter about how local things might sometimes be. It won't be nice to read the scathing critiques in some of the other comments! Maybe they could fix up the mess in querylocal.py!

Being able to run the same code locally as in a cloud platform is a nice development pattern but optimal inference setup for many ML situations is a tricky problem, are you really making good use of the CPU / GPU / TPU?

The underlying server tech: llama-cpp-python recently added support for draft models that could make inference much faster. How easy would using that from Localllm be? I'd be concerned `Localllm > llama-cpp-python > llama.cpp` might be too many layers of systems to optimise or code with. Milliseconds often matter.

Having a fast, well priced solution is not easy, people want as many tokens per second as they can get, ideally with no warm-up. How would they solve that?

People looking at fast inference options might like to see Banana's parting words, as they wind down their serverless GPU cloud, in their swansong, they suggest a few hosted inference options people might want to consider: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=39288915

mount output.img toto

> A well-formed C++ program is one that is "[...] constructed according to the syntax and semantic rules" (4.65).

Yes, my argument is that as a result a C++ program which sorts floats in the standard way is not well-formed. The type "float" matches the syntax rules, but does not match the (unchecked) semantic rules for ordering. This is Ill-Formed No Diagnostic Required, IFNDR.

Not checking is a choice. You mentioned "full Rust" as the alternative here, but lest that be misinterpreted, the other choice isn't to do everything Rust does, only to make the same choice in this specific respect: Rust chooses to reject programs unless it can see that they meet the semantic rules, while C++ chooses to accept programs unless it can see why they cannot.

Rice's Theorem forbids the obviously ideal outcome (accept exactly the set of programs which have the desired semantic properties) but either of these alternatives delivers an implementable system, and I believe of those two options one is clearly unacceptable.
As expected, I asked the same questions to perplexity.ai, and it gave a correct response, just with a minor disclaimer at the end explaining the risks.
Not saying Putin should be underestimated. Even if his strategic cunning is on the level of a village idiot, he clearly has a lot of men and material to throw into the meat grinder. And pretty clearly he doesn't give a shit about casualties either.

"If the simulation is ,already simulating all the particles in the universe, then it doesn't matter what humanity does with all those particles"

That would be very unlikely, again, mathematics would likely be the same and this limits options. The guys simulation us would be bound to mathematics and limits (e.g. computational crunching power).

In "grand theft auto" you also just simulated/render, what is necessary at a given moment. By the way, the rendering would be a nice interpretation for the "observer" of the Copenhagen interpretation of quantum mechanics :-)
Asking for an explanation is not a contradiction.
Yes. Don't expect too much though. 3D acceleration with Virtualbox is rather flaky (independent of using KVM).
I genuinely believe LlMs have for the most part peaked already just like the previous iterations of ML and even brute forcing.

28% of vehicle fatalities in Amsterdam are cycling related. Deaths do happen. If you’re arguing that these behaviors are, in fact, safe, I would disagree strongly. The U.S. drives large trucks at high speeds because the U.S. isn't very dense, even in cities, and car centric. And bike infrastructure is lacking. I agree, making cycling safer makes cyclists safer. But none of this explains why cyclists bike like a*holes in every country, which is the point I was making. In addition to the physics of bikes encouraging selfish behavior, there is the lack of license plates and ticketing.
