That's a UX implementation, not a moat. There's nothing ChatGPT-specific about vector stores/the Assistants API that Claude can't copy if there's enough demand.
Biden should take on a lot of the blame by immediately deciding he wasn't going to run this year. Then we could have had a robust primary, hopefully ending with a more appealing candidate than Harris. Not a slam dunk, but better chances.
From WordPress to Truth Social: Donald Trump's Social Media Journey
Many YC founders did the same thing. They worked on their own startups with no salary under a student visa, and applied for H1B/O1 visas once they got funding. Is this illegal?
Also a large number of animals cannibalize the weak (chickens, for example). Now, I presume that you hold humans to a different standard for that behavior - why?
I had the same question, but I imagine that the "media pipeline" box with a line that goes directly from "compositor" to "encoder" is probably hiding quite a lot of complexity

Recall's offering allows you to get "audio, video, transcripts, and metadata" from video calls -- again, total conjecture, but I imagine they do need to decode into raw format in order to split out all these end-products (and then re-encode for a video recording specifically.)
Are we in a recession? I don't think so. There was (still is) a possibility of a recession, due to elevated interest rates, but the way fiscal policy works, through Congress's appropriations, it is hopelessly lagging behind monetary policy (the Fed).
chat is basically prepping us for the future where the only “thing” we will chatting with is “AI” :)
Well exactly. It's not exactly as if there aren't enough well defined archetypes, methodologies and historical outcomes that fit this.
Does Polish treat them as distinct letters in their own right for sorting purposes? That is usually when you see digraphs appear in (at least some) national encodings, from whence they end up in Unicode for compatibility reasons.
I think that argument might have worked better if there wasnt the impression Biden made it worse with covid relief/spending bills. Also Dems needed someone out there repeating their messages ad-nauseum and kamala was not a pete buttigieg type who will literally go on any show at any time.
That seems like a very weird branding move to me (dropping the part of your brand name that actually makes it recognizable), but I guess I just don't understand the marketing 4D chess at play here.

Is this some kind of marketing flex? "We are so recognizable, we can afford drop the only thing from our name that makes it make object level sense"?

Other examples: Transferwise -> Wise (despite them still doing transfers as their main business), WeWork -> We (ok, to be fair in my experience not so much work got done there at the best of times) etc.

These things also usually completely kill SEO. Like, how am I supposed to google for the nearest coworking space? "we near me" sounds ridiculous to type into a search engine.
I don't really think this is true. Gaussian splats certainly came from a context where an opaque representation is expected and normal, but they ended up being an entirely comprehensible format. They're not as simple to operate on as an SDF or voxel representation, but I think they're on par with triangle mesh geometry. A transformed fuzzy sphere is about as complex as a triangle, and spherical harmonic colors, while more conceptually difficult than textures, have fewer moving parts.
That warped mine is responsible for an enormous amount of innovation. Wish we had more, similarly warped minds.

This clearly outweighs his efforts to bring the electric vehicle, space, and humanoid robotics revolutions.
That 87% figure refers to the number of ballots that have been counted. What you're thinking of is the turnout (usually measured by % of VEP).

California, for example, has about 7 million ballots that haven't been processed
Yes, a pure and full-blooded Dutch English Canadian American hero.
“ economically illiterate ”

You got your explanation here. Arrogance and dismissiveness of voters.
Its not just China. Those tariffs he's advocating for are broadly speaking, against all imports[0]

>Trump proposed a 10% tariff on all U.S. imports and a 60% levy on Chinese-made products, which if enacted would affect the entire economy by pushing consumer prices higher and stoking retaliatory levies on American exports. Trump also threatened to impose a 25% tariff on all imports from Mexico.

Artemis' unworkable design is because of the limitations of Starship. I was all-in on "cool, huge rocket go brr" until I realized that it's going to take between 5 and 20 Starship launches per mission just to get to the moon. That's a clear regression from the Saturn V.
Harris played to and reinforced this economic illiteracy by proposing federal price controls for groceries.
Only Bernie had a personality cult to rival Trump's. I don't think a single person loved Hillary - they were just okay with her. Many, many people fanatically loved Bernie.
Yeah, same with ending filibuster and other speculated tactics. I don't think you can close the door behind you without a constitutional amendment, which won't happen.
Trump has said multiple times that certain media orgs should lose their broadcast license and specific people should be put in jail, because they said things he did not like. MAGA has also cancelled many of their own, or Republicans, for speaking out against Trump.

These sorts of things are where the authoritarian associations come from
Many conservative accounts have been banned. Many conservatives doxxed or threatened, for exactly the sorts of comments you make.

I would not though, because you have every right to want to self-govern. Good luck!
yeah California has between 5 and 7 million that will take weeks to count
Those broadcast licenses are not a god given right to CBS. Did you see how CBS cut up Kamala's and Mike Johnson's quotes?

The US government is under no obligation to CBS to give them airwaves to propagandize fake news.
Did you read it? It clearly says the team was far too big, and that even members of Obama's team felt it was too large, so Trump shrunk and reorganized it.
But they're still not making a profit. Maybe the analogy would be if the moat was filled with water, and it started leaking into the castle.
> We never have to sit through a Trump election campaign again.

He has children who are very much like him and popular in the "MAGA Movement", Donald Trump Jr. specifically. Political dynasties exist in America. Just sayin'.
Biden's Chips Act attempts to onshore chip production, arguably so that we wouldn't have to protect Taiwan in the future (or mitigate against it's eventual capture). However, were Trump to allow China to take Taiwan it would make him look incredibly weak - he won't do that.

If it happens, it happens this year.
I think that's the last thing they need to do before they can actually launch satellites. I'm surprised there was no attempt on the last launch. Glad to see it this time. The improved Starlink constellation that Starship will enable is going to be awesome.

I feel like their show has an implicit subtext where you’re expected to understand when they are lying. You get to feel smart by recognizing when they’re just talking their book.

The tricky question is whether there is any value in the podcast besides understanding their book.
His first point - weighting by 2020 vote - is something that Nate Cohn pointed out very concretely as a methodological choice that wouldn't be obvious until the election [0]. Even in retrospect that seems fair, at least based on the analysis that Nate put together.

Worth pointing out though that most pollsters _have_ been weighting by 2020 vote, so in general this isn't a fair critique of the entire polling industry. There are other fair critiques though, for example, that there are entire populations of people that are almost impossible to reach now (e.g. those who don't answer unknown numbers, young people, etc.).

>They failed to hammer home that Trump printed the goddamn money

loose monetary policy was the right thing to do after the COVID downward economic shock. But not extending it over and over, and that's when/why the inflation kicked in.
In this past Friday's episode, Saks made some pretty terrifying statements about the FCC selling the VHF/UHF Frequencies.

He seemed wildly unclear about how leasing that space by the FCC has worked until now and pitched it as a "fixing the woke media" solution.
Of course deflation would be terrible for the economy. Expecting the average voter to understand the intricate complexities of how economies work vs I don't have enough money to buy things, so I want prices to drop, is sadly a losing proposition.
> The solution is to not have allowed it to happen in the first place.

How, exactly?

The biggest causes of inflation were stimulus, supply-shock, and housing prices.

Stimulus started under Trump and was the correct response to COVID. Without it we would have had even worse economic suffering that we did. Inflation was the lesser-of-two-evils.

The supply shock was global, and there probably wasn't much to do about it, besides maybe some more supply-side stimulus.

Housing is just a shit-show, but people have been grinding to get more built to address the problems for years.

But stimulus was the thing that could have been changed the most, yet it kept us from having a much, much worse recession.

>Trump's stated economic policies (no income tax, make it up with tariffs) are unequivocally bad ideas...

...but they are very good memes, as in units of information that compete for attention. I think we are now, post-2016, in the social media era of elections, where policy content matters far less than policy vibes.
Hope and change. That's the message Obama won consecutive terms with. The Republicans have always thrived on fear and insecurity--and hate, which is just ripe fear. To quote Yoda, "Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate." The red scare, the Southern Strategy, urban crime, WMDs, terrorism, immigrants, China--since the 1950s, Republicans have monkey-barred from fear to fear.

It's a natural fit for conservativism. What is conservatism if not the fear of change? And when you're afraid, you want a strongman to lead you, someone who takes pride in our military and law enforcement. Someone who shows no fear, who has swagger. It's also a perfect fit for someone like Trump who would as soon lie as breathe. When you're conjuring terrors, truth is just dead weight.

Kamala didn't run on hope and change. She ran on fear, too. She tried to beat Trump at his own game with none of the advantages of his shameless distain for the truth or a Republican Party and media ecosystem at home with fearmongering. She aped his disdain for immigrants and opposition to China, but of course her main bugaboo was Trump himself. Despite widespread dissatisfaction with our nation's current circumstances, she offered only stasis, while Trump offered revolution.

Non-college graduates know they're getting fucked. Trump says immigrants and China is to blame. Kamala has nothing to say. She could point to the billionaires, the tax dodging corporations, the thriving defense contractors, the predatory medical insurance and pharmaceutical companies, the monopolies bleeding consumers dry in every corner of the economy.

She could paint a vision of affordable healthcare for all, an end to medical bankruptcy, an end to college debt, a thriving green energy blue collar economy, free early childhood education, a guaranteed jobs program, a universal basic income.

She could acknowledge the people who feel left behind and say, "I hear you. This is what I'm going to do for you." Instead, her cries of fear just assured those folks that Trump really was going to fuck shit up fighting for them, that the people who sold them down the river are shaking in their boots. Of course, Trump isn't actually going to make their lives better, but he promised he would, and that's more than Kamala could be bothered to do.
Seriously, who cares!
There are far more interesting stuff in space exploration than this flight tests of a giant boiler that's been going on for years now.
> dropping the part of your brand name that actually makes it recognizable

This feels a lot like Twitter -> X, I guess we have to get used to this.
> Sure, but none of that is moat.

Not for foundation models, and not when considered individually. But as long as OpenAI continues killing it with foundation models, continues moving up the stack with applications built on those models, and continues establishing market-leading parterships/integrations with companies like Microsoft and Apple, that's a moat.
Large companies are needed to do large projects.

> When a corporation grows too big, it grows uncontrollable as well

True, which is why corporations eventually fail.

BTW, governments also grow too big and become uncontrollable.
It's hard to see Trump do any worse than Biden on this front, but I'm sure he'll try. Biden admin approved over 50% more oil/drilling permits than Trump. More than any president in history
Honestly what Trump would do in this situation is distract with a bunch of other nonsense and make that the talking point instead. Dems haven’t stooped to this level yet to their detriment. The whole thing is pretty sad.
The transition has to be accompanied by a revamp of all the technical processes associated with IT provisioning, which is too much and too risky to do.
Is this a joke? It's widely known by anyone paying attention that Democrats embraced mail-in voting much more aggressively than Republicans, especially in 2020.
I agree. WhatsApp is by far the most popular app in Brazil (of all kinds, not only messengers). Yet…

- Its name is unpronounceable for 90% of its users (we short it to ”zap”)

- The word itself has unfamiliar letter combinations (“wh” and “pp”).

- The intended pun doesn’t work at all, since no one here uses “What’s up” (not even the 10% that understands English)

Similar to what happens with “Google” and “Facebook”, btw.
So "GMI3-wide" and similar terms are the important things to search for.

some diagrams: https://www.servethehome.com/amd-epyc-genoa-gaps-intel-xeon-...

From another page: "The most noteworthy aspect is that there is a new GMI3-Wide format. With Client Zen 4 and previous generations of Zen chiplets, there was 1 GMI link between the IOD and CCD. With Genoa, in the lower core count, lower CCD SKUs, multiple GMI links can be connected to the CCD."

And it seems like all the chiplets have two links, but everything I can find says they just don't hook up both on consumer parts.

Let's not forget, though, that Trump is the one who kicked this off: he signed the first COVID-related stimulus package ad the end of March 2020, to the tune of $2 trillion.

Given that he was only in office for the first year of the pandemic, it seems reasonable that Biden signed another $3 trillion away. If all that caused inflation, Trump and Biden deserve the blame together.
> they just like Trump and will fill in the gaps to justify it.

You've hit the nail on the head. They "like Trump." They find him charismatic and entertaining. Democrat politicians are boring and starched. Politics is show business. Why can't the Democrats learn that?
You must be joking
Note all the comments in this thread about how bad the show is and how they don't trust it... but gee golly it sure is good and you should check it out!
It's not even clear why they need a browser in the mix; most of these services have APIs you can use. (Also, why fork Chromium instead of using CEF?)
Not into space things and while this is cool i wonder what the great significance of this is? I see lots signaling how great this is and it's lost on me.
You believe abortion means murder and that illegal immigrants bring in crime. Those are somewhat reasonable things to believe in and both lead to one candidate. I am not as surprised as you are.

I'm not justifying them, but I completely understand why someone would think like that.
Unable to afford healthcare is pretty straightforward, I think. My plan went from being a relatively small amount I would pay for peace of mind, to being a giant expense that would leave me destitute. As far as the fine, if it hadn't been revoked it would just come out of my tax return, so "paying" would have been no big deal. Yeah, still don't have healthcare. I realized I don't need it much and became more fatalistic after living without it.
Actual reality beyond the fake title:

"using WebSockets over loopback was ultimately costing us $1M/year in AWS spend"

then

"and the quest for an efficient high-bandwidth, low-latency IPC"

Shared memory. It has been there for 50 years.
The best solution imo would have been 1. to run a candidate not associated with Biden. 2. To say "inflation happened globally" and double and triple down on that. Half baked solutions like you're suggesting from someone associated with Biden + gaslighting the public that its not that bad were not the answers people wanted.
Because they look at metrics like GDP and the stock market and unemployment, and fail to realize that it's not evenly distributed. Increasing GDP and stock market indicate somebody is making a lot of money, but the average voter isn't seeing any of that in their own lives.
ChatGPT is an amazing name. Extremely percussive.
> Seemed like Elon Musk will be Trump's righthand man

That seems like what Musk is angling for. I wonder what Trump will do. He could easily backstab people who helped get him elected if he feels they are too famous and taking some of his spotlight (Musk, RFK Jr). I suppose more likely, he just gives them everything they want and goes golfing.
2020 vote count: 155 million

2024 vote count so far: 139 million

2024 vote percentage counted so far: 87%

139 million divided by 87% equals 159 million.

Voter turnout this year will be higher than 2020.
> vertebrates across the board require less data to learn new things

the human brain is absolutely inundated with data, especially from visual, audio, and kinesthetic mediums. the data is a very different form than what one would use to train a CNN or LLM, but it is undoubtedly data. newborns start out literally being unable to see, and they have to develop those neural pathways by taking in the "pixels" of the world for every millisecond of every day
While I disagree on your other points, I agree that traditional left wing is totally dead in this country. It's been co-opted by wacko identity politics.

The politician closest to the traditional values of the left wing is ironically Trump.

There still is a double standard though.

People from the wealthier first-world nations enjoy more international privileges — visa-on-arrival, stress-free travel, higher rates in currency exchange, dual citizenships, better societal structures and support for assimilation into foreign cultures.

Immigrants are either fleeing persecution or leaving their countries seeking a better life, requirements for visas and security checks, usually with not enough money, little privilege, and defacto distrust from foreign societal structures.

Relatively speaking, the typical expat can move around the world as they wish. Immigrants can't. So yes, immigrants, when they move, often do so, seeking to live elsewhere permanently.
At a minimum they should have admitted that inflation is a big problem. Instead they chose to ignore it or lecture people why they are wrong that inflation is a problem. Same with the border.
Just a guess but midterms probably emphasised the educated vote which seems to have swung Dem recently.

I think you’re exactly right, it’s a show for insiders to know what these 4 people think so the next time they directly or indirectly encounter them they are known quantities. Its masked as news & informative media but its principally brand marketing for these 4 people and their funds & companies.

Reading their product page, it seems like Recall captures meetings on whatever platform their customers are using: Zoom, Teams, Google Meet, etc.

Since they don't have API access to all these platforms, the best they can do to capture the A/V streams is simply to join the meeting in a headless browser on a server, then capture the browser's output and re-encode it.
This seems more like a story people like to repeat than an actual reality, like we're just relaying wisdom from 1999.
