Yeah, the instruction set and the implementation in hardware is absurd at this point.

AMD and Intel have already partnered on killing x64 in the longer run and work is under way.

The current democratic party isn’t standing for trans rights any better than anyone else. Perhaps individual politicians are, but the party has a lot of de facto republicans in the ranks. So vote for them or not, they aren’t going to make things better for folks that are trans. They also aren’t ending wars, reducing military spending, helping vulnerable people seeking asylum, helping homeless people, providing free mental healthcare or national healthcare at all, and so on. Hell, they haven’t enshrined abortion rights into law in the past almost 50 years.

People vote for democrats because of tradition and lesser-of-the-evils reasons. That’s it. That’s a shitty place to be, and should embarrass us the voters as well as the party.

Trans rights are human rights, and how you treat anyone in your society is how you treat everyone. Democrats were scared in the '80s and '90s to support gay people for this exact reason, and instead of losing elections they started winning because people realize gay people are people. They lost elections because they weren’t brave enough to stand with the courage of their convictions, and in my opinion that’s what they deserved.

Only now? It’s been two years of this and now they’ve had too much? No partial credit should be given for people that continued to participate when it was clear what was happening.

Because the Olympics aren’t good for anything but ruining nations and memes.

You missed the part where the latch is deforming, causing it to not close or alert the driver. The software fix is yet another attempt to dodge the fact that they do not have enough repair capacity or financial reserves for a major fleet recall.

What he won’t support is them raising prices mostly for Nvidia. TSMC has done this in the past as a clear move to cut nuisance production, and nvidia’s books are full of nonsense orders that they can’t possibly fill. Wei isn’t an idiot, unless Nvidia fronts a lot of cash, it’s unlikely to work out in Jensen’s favor.

Huge surprise, yeah. It’s funny how a little campaign contribution can go such a long way.

He successsfully got ByteDance to use US cloud providers to run their service. Specifically cloud providers whose CEOs donated to his campaign. It was smokescreen, and apparently people believed it.

LLM are parlour tricks that impress the gullible and easily confused. LLM aren’t building blocks for anything but energy consumption and greed. “The singularity” isn’t coming, true intelligence isn’t coming. You’ve been lied to, and this is the fourth time in my career alone that this has had to be said.

To rip off investors. If they pretend to be on the same hype train as everyone else, and lie about what their product does, there’s a chance some idiot will give them more money.

I told you how to find them so you wouldn’t have to bitch about my cherry picking. I can’t help if you’d rather bury your head in the sand, and it makes no difference to me what you believe.

It’s the Pravda of the VC-centric tech scene and has been for a very very long time.

At least someone else gets it.

I’d suggest they’re just as wrong about programming languages and maths as any other topic.

You can google for cloudflare issues ranging from providing hosting for actual nazi sites to extorting customers by threatening the exact scenario se saw in this blog post. Feel free to google “cloudflare account suspended” to see many posts about people having not just DDoS mitigation disabled, but everything related to an account deleted and disabled. Many of those people had the audacity to, get this, rely on DDoS protection! The nerve, right?

Not just “this case”, there’s been countless cases like this with CF.

Pro tip: Don’t waste your time over there.

Not a huge surprise, they’ve got a long history of doing all kinds of scumbag shit. Nobody should be surprised when the leopard eats their face.

Tesla isn’t valued like a car company.

The market being stupid doesn’t change the fact that they are a manufacturing company. The fact that they can convince people to repeat this nonsense is how they keep the market stupid. Keeping the market stupid is how they continue pumping cash to stay afloat.
