Anyone who has ever worked for a medium-large corporation will have done the inevitable employee training that, among many other things, tells you that "no, you cannot pay bribes or facilitation payments in another country even if it's normal and expected there, and yes you and us can still be prosecuted at home for that".

Ark Tesla Price Model 2029
Excellent, I wish we saw this a few months ago, we just bought Freshsales.

In terms of Wishlist we’d love to see: quotes/invoicing (support for product SKUs etc), document generation on deals (NDAs, proposals etc)

I think that’s the extent of the gap between Freshsales and this that we actually use.

In terms of integrations it’s great that Twenty supports webhooks. Any idea a good starting point for integrating something like Xero? Is there a repo of integrations other people have mangled with that we can tweak or reference?

Disclaimer didn’t actually take it for a spin yet.

I'm only aware of Nvidia AI Enterprise and that isn't required to run the GPU.

I think it's aimed at medium to large corporations.

Massive corporations such as Meta and OpenAI would build their own cloud and not rely on this.

The GPU really is a shovel, and can be used without any subscription.

Don't get me wrong, I want there to be competition with Nvidia, I want more access for open source and small players to run and train AI on competitive hardware at our own sites.

But no one is competing, no one has any idea what they're doing. Nvidia has no competition whatsoever, no one is even close.

This lets Nvidia get away with adding more vram onto an AI specific GPU and increase the price by 10x.

This lets Nvidia remove NVLink from current gen consumer cards like the 4090.

This lets Nvidia use their driver licence to prevent cloud platforms from offering consumers cards as a choice in datacenters.

If Nvidia had a shred of competition things would be much better.

>My fear is that if I want to download Skype or Teams, I’ll need to first download the Microsoft Store app, and then sign in, and then download the app I want. And the store will be slow and shitty and packed with ads

I'm not sure I see the problem here. If some apps are only available through shitty ad-packed vendor-controlled stores, then hopefully that'll push people to simply avoid them. I mean, if I want to video-chat with someone and to use Skype/Teams I have to download the Microsoft store app and suffer with all that, or I just could use Facebook Messenger on the regular Google Play store (assuming they don't force their own store like MS) and it's easy, I'm going to tell my friend, "let's use FB Messenger instead; these MS apps are a pain in the ass." And if someone insists on using some shitty MS app that I can only get through the shitty ad-laden MS Store, I might re-evaluate how much I really want to chat with them. Smarter app vendors are going to try to avoid putting their users through that experience.

(Also, this is just an example; for all I know, Meta/FB in this possible future would be the stupid one pushing an ad-laden store while MS might be the smarter one making it easier for users to install their apps.)

Nvidia has decades of experience selling hardware to people with all the pains that entails, support, sales channels, customer acquisition, software, it's something you don't just do overnight, and it does cost money. Google's TPUs get some of their cost efficiency from not supporting COTS use cases and the overhead of selling to people, and the total wall clock time has to also include the total operational costs, which dominate at their size (e.g. if it's 30x slower but 1/50th the TCO then it's a win. I don't know how TPUv5 stacks up against the B200). It's not as simple as "just put it on a shelf and sell it and make a gajillion dollars like nvidia"

I can see this point, but a 10db reduction from 90db to 80db is still really loud. A 10db reduction from 40db is even more impressive.

So having some baseline would still be helpful just to get some sort of reference. For science, you'd put the dampened wheels on a car and get readings from inside the car as that's the only thing relevant. You'd then replace the wheels with non-dampened versions on the exact same car, and then take your measurements from inside the car again.

This isn't rocket science. It doesn't need to be any more complicated than taking readings where your target audience will be sitting. The fact that this even needs to be stated explicitly just makes me sad for common sense
I was on Game Pass for awhile, and at some point realized I was playing a small subset of the games, and that keeping an eye on Steam sales and buying them outright was usually cheaper in the long run.

But obviously this will depend on how you use Game Pass. For me, buying the top games I was playing on Game Pass on Steam was worthwhile in the long run. YMMV.

> They did include an 8-rollout version in the tables? I can't say as to why they didn't try using a bigger model than Llama 3 8B.

That was a typo. I meant a > 8 rollout version. It doesn't seem like they have hit massively diminishing returns yet.

> A single rollout is the full process described in chapter 3. "The algorithm iterates through these stages until a termination condition T is met, including rollout constraints or maximum exploration depth"

A rollout is not the entire process. The summary of normal MCTS correctly identifies rollouts as "random simulations by selecting moves arbitrarily until a game’s conclusion is reached, thereby evaluating the node’s potential". Nothing actually like rollouts is ever described.

Typically MCTS is limited by nodes expanded which is likely what they mean, but because they correctly described rollouts, it seems like I am missing something. Also they mention AlphaGo which replaces rollouts with a neural eval which maybe is relevant.

If rollouts means nodes expanded, 4 and 8 are both just really low numbers.

Global carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuels and industry totaled 37.15 billion metric tons (GtCO₂) in 2022. Emissions are projected to have risen 1.1 percent in 2023 to reach a record high of 37.55 GtCO₂.

Let's face it, being the largest whale hunter isn't something to boast about.

Instead of pushing upwards to break the 40 Gigatonne per annum ceiling maybe work to reduce consumption patterns, efficiencies, question whether high cost of energy environments are the ideal locations for populations to expand into, etc.
Yeah! I think of that 'intrinsic difficulty' in sort of information theory terms. In that, given the context of where we are and where we want to be, what is the minimum amount of work needed to get there. If that minimum work is a large amount, the problem is 'hard'. This also accounts for the change in difficulty over time as our 'where we are' gets better.

Line work is certainly still hard from a toil standpoint. But academically, little of that total effort is intrinsically necessary, so the work is in some sense highly inefficient. There may still be aspects that need human intervention of course, but the less that is the more robotic the task.

In theory, anything that's already figured out is a candidate to be offloaded to the robots, and in some sense isn't necessarily a good use of human time. (There may be other socioeconomic reasons to value humans doing these tasks, but, it's not absolutely required that a human do it over a machine)
That's a real flaw in this argument. Japanese software is at least okay and oftentimes good in gaming UI/UX, and at the same time hopeless anywhere else.

One thing I happen to know is Japanese dev type people loves to victim blame for usability and unintended path issues. It seems omission of subjects/actors in spoken Japanese make it hard for them to comprehend issues. Japanese stoicism certainly isn't helping too.

Maybe entertainment for its own sake is technical exception, as joy, ease, addictiveness, are clear goals rather than potential excess. Or maybe there are somthing else to it. But it's certainly an interesting inconsistency.

I wouldn't argue that Linux on the desktop is the pinnacle of user experience, but it's pretty good these days. I personally run Xfce as I have since the 00's, and over the years it's become rock solid. It's also simple, does the core things I need a DE to do, and that's all I want.

I think the current relatively decent state of DE environments speaks to what volunteers can accomplish. Are there better UIs in the market? I'd argue that Apple is doing a better job than anyone here. But the Linux options these days are firmly in the "good enough" category, especially when the alternative is the increasingly user-hostile Windows UI.

I've been having a similar experience trying to build an app with liveview. I've been simultaneously building the same app with Phoenix + LiveView and Dream (OCaml) + HTMX. With the OCaml stack I'm finding it really easy to follow the data flow through the whole app thanks to the compiler. With the Phoenix app I'm struggling to internalise how all the code fits together and having to navigate the code base off searching for strings alone (vscode editor tooling seems to just not work for me?). I'm also struggling to grasp how state is stored in a liveview and it isn't helped that a lot of the resources I've found online are now out of date. Going with a simpler approach of MVC sounds promising - I do want to get to the point where I'm actually taking advantage of the BEAM (I'm aiming for long running processes + user interactivity + maybe multi-user editing).

I'd be keen to hear your development workflow for building an MVC style app, what you use for the front end, and how you go about refactoring, e.g. when editing a struct which is stored in the DB and shown in a view is when I particularly feel like I'm flying blind.
