the markets that Intel focuses on have larger/easier freedom of choice for the consumers, for one.
things are changing but there is a sort of "no one ever got fired for using nvidia for inference." thing going on.

Big companies do it too, but my feedback has little chance of reaching their ears.
and ethically, what's the point in giving hostile corporate groups any money ? I get that you're breaking out of their mega subsidized and profit-locked walled garden, but 'sold units' is still a metric they'll use to positively enforce their strategies going forward, and as with all goods the vulnerabilities will get more and more exotic until totally pushed out of public availability much like the newest console gens.
Riker attacked the Borg cube because of the danger to humanity and because of the known opinion of the man he respected; be quick and decisive against the Borg because they are inherently dangerous and a threat to humanity damn the costs.
>Picard isn't married, has no family or children, and apparently no desire to change that. He's actually distinctly uncomfortable around children. Instead he married his job, which is all consuming. Right there that renders the character boring, overly intense and unrelatable for many people.
about 11 percent of people in the UK claim to dislike children, 20% of them say they couldn't care less about them. 20% of US citizens claim to have no desire for having or raising a child. 44% of Americans claim they will prioritize their career and personal prospects over relationships and children for at least the next 10 years in their life.
Picardd's character in those regards seems to sit around the opinions of a third of the western world, and likely higher among Trek fans.
Also , regarding those topics, we see Picards' character finally and permanently turn into a man that prioritizes family life in S05E25 'The Inner Light', where he lives an entirety of a life as a dedicated family man before being flung back to duty.
Also the "crew doesn't care about Picard" concept doesn't fly at all. Picard routinely leans on his family-like connections with the crew, the Crushers, as a father to Data, Wesley, Riker , a mentor to Geordi ; hell he even begins treating Q like family by the end of TNG.
>Picard is supposedly a culture maven, but neither him nor his crew ever creates any.
One of the primary concepts explored in TNG is the struggle that man has to self-explain their condition in a meaningful-enough way to an artificial human such that they can reliably grasp the concept on their own and boot-strap into a human equivalent. Picard is instrumental to this. In a very real way that is a stronger concept of birthing culture than most of the xenocultural stories in that it's an offshoot of humanity directly.
>Picard says everyone on the Enterprise is there because Starfleet is prestigious and he seems fine with that idea. This arrangement could never work in reality so he comes across as delusional
plenty of non-terrible countries have conscripted service. I fail to see a major distinction. Plenty of Star Trek crew members object to things and get thrown into the equivalent of a brig/court-martial.
As for the economic/world-policy problems: most problems people have with the system displayed in Star Trek is that it's poorly explained, even if it's shown as working fairly well. I think that's a point to jump in with suspension of disbelief personally; but if you need a more realistic economic outlook then check out the newer Picard show or DS9; there's a strong, true, and relied upon currency and the world has mostly gone to shit because of it, explored ad nauseum.
I think the greatest defense in the fantasy of TNGs economics and policy is simply that the show wanted to explore topics further away from concepts that humanity was already entrenched within.
the fact of the matter is that now when I program I don't need to hawkishly stare at my screen to ensure I didn't miss a paren, semi-colon, whatever.
I now just sort of type (when I don't dictate) every second word of a sentence in a kind of simplified Newspeak to an intern who is infinitely forgiving of typos.
in that case i'm sure practice makes perfect, and I practice less than I ever have.
now THAT must be a narrow cross-section of users.
the screenshots make me want to fire it up, I miss linux UIs when the sun/BeOS influences were still apparent. " First off, we need a nice big clock, then we'll go from there."
tl;dr : there is a cost associated to allowing a random company to cement down a galvanized steel pole somewhere in town; for installation, removal, and liability.
I then log in, create a bunch of logistics chains, and then a few days later he whines about it again when he enters the next phase of gameplay.
This continues until fast logistics drones, then he takes over; less need to consider routing & order .
Factorio is interesting, a lot of players just treat it like they're playing Postal and just want to gun bugs down in creative mode equivalents, meanwhile i'm fretting about green boards per second.
it's pretty shitty for anyone outside the singular theocratic military enclave that hordes all the water and decapitates scientists.
"Quick, everyone! There has been an event in the time line that causes derision between the masses, let's assign derogatory phrases to blindly label individuals on each side -- we'll call them slurs -- according to the corresponding biases before any kind of human oneness or organization can take place, otherwise we risk human relations improving!"
or, another route : every single step need not be 'us or them'.
... on another hand, 'gargoyle' is kind of cool.
detecting AI written code without a minder chained to your arm watching your every movement is still a topic of research...
...and as someone who has been to the last 10 miscellaneous FSF/GNU celebrations I can tell you that community has just as many license cheaters and scoundrels as the rest of the computing world, they just tend to bias towards the good stuff, similarly to how every microsoft employee isn't required to drink the blood of infants (it just looks good on quarterlies.)
>The app is the same everywhere. When it opens, it checks your computer's memory and downloads the AI model that fits. More memory means a smarter model.
first thing an emergency tool should require, internet access.
at first glance I figured it'd be an ultra small specialty trained survival model that'd be small and runnable anywhere, sorta like an emergency flavored version of those tiny tts models that have been all over recently.
Maybe that's an idea for someone.
I totally disagree with you on the precept that all difficult to understand things need be needlessly dumbed-down/watered-down until palatable for a mass (average) audience. Requiring 'math50' before 'trig101' isn't gate-keeping in any moral sense, it's an effort to save everyones' time involved when the effort is futile.
Similarly I don't demand that haute couture fashion companies explain the style to me until 'I get it' ; I just take it for granted that i'm not going to be able to understand the entirety of the world in one lifetime.
tesla will screw everyone involved, but they shouldn't. those excited early birds were the primary advertising campaigners.
this is literally the textbook historical process across every industry ever.
I don't claim to know whether that could be done feasibly for medicine, I only point out that medicine is uncommon in how it educates.
lol what's old is new again, software selling performance options like it's the beginning of the multi-core days again.
and the market has proven that the audience needs those two characteristics, apparently.
the sexual abuse of the catholic church was first exposed in a local paper for Lafayette Louisianna.
the My Lai massacre was first uncovered by a small alternative group called Dispatch News Service.
the CIA cocaine stuff of the 90s was first discussed in a local San Jose paper.
Larry Nassar was outted as a predator by a local Indianapolis paper , a local DC paper uncovered the Tuskegee Experiments, the Seattle Times uncovered the 737 MAX safety certification skips..
I dunno, I don't think i'd be that surprised to first read about the upcoming impending meteor in the latest issue of Teen Vogue.
cinema that can do that is powerful.
my mind is still stuck in an era where "written from scratch" means no packages and pure language.
people older than me scoff at the concept of how easy it is to be given an already working compiler..
'computers' probably have one of the most diverse fanbases as far as age and expectation goes of nearly anything around, and we're definitely entering a new era.
ban LLM discovery of horrendous security practices because as it turns out security-thru-obscurity is being practiced as 'good enough' across the world , or actually enforce realistic and livable security practice ?
given the insistence on picking overblown and totally partisan poor choices lately, I presume the media will sit on the side of 'we'll just ban LLMs from checking the rest of our security apparatus for single digit keys' and charge 'Wayne' with terrorism statutes.' -- but hopefully i'm just being a jaded pessimist.
probably not the detail to omit to try to hook a readership..
technical aside : on low bandwidth connections your site acts really inconsistent and weird; it appears to be downloading those on-hover sound files.
