  • Theoretically, by wiping out the rich would create instability within the wealthy class, they wouldn't have the time or the means to herd the politicians to serve them or to effectively disrupt democracy.

    The inheritance that kid collects would amounts to "Congratulation, you won the lottery, now what? You haven't own any corporation yet, know of anything about how to make connections with other politicians and wealthy class of people and so forth. You're pretty much on your own."

    Like 70% of the time, those people wouldn't even bother with politic and would just spend the money vacationing where-ever in the world and having fun with the newfound wealth, not busy trying to disrupt democracy. People tend to be very shortsighted when they amasses huge wealth, in fact, according to some statistic, it ranges from 44% to 70% of people who gain huge amount of money end up losing it all within the next 5 years.

    That amount of time would basically give the common people enough time to go about fixing the political system.

  • I think we have clearly established in the past year that any sense of rationality from the Russian government is already out of the window.

  • They didn't strictly mined the power units, but also the cooling pool, so... all of those are set up to cause a meltdown. The article point that out.

  • With who though? They won't eliminate the first pass the post, good luck ever fixing that one, why remove the thing that got you in office?

  • But they won't force the fkers that took out PPP loan out on all of the younger people stuck with student loan and further cause inflation to get worse.. I am honestly at the point where I think all of the younger generations need to band together, stop paying taxes and tell the government to just fk off already, they are not a legitimate government institute since they don't represent the will of the people and that we should establish a new government to replace it (using constitution and laws from saner country.)

    We legitimately have tried to change this country through Bernie Sanders and instead only for DNC to say, "Lol fk all of you, Hillary Clinton!" in such a non-democratic notation and then they basically hand over the election to Trump and consequentially the 3 Supreme Court Positions to basically permanently screw us over. Even if we voted to get all of the Democrat's majority chairs in congress, they did nothing with it.

    I'm tired of all of the double standards, some of my friends have been killed by this institute, because they went homeless, didn't get the medical coverage and all that during covid. To everyone telling people to go and vote, sure, but as long as the current political system is in place, America's only destiny is to further radicalize to the extremist right and democrat party is helping them do it. American government is NOT legitimate and it's not a democracy.

  • And so the global enshittification grows...

  • As in actual world, providing context to physics of things, providing logical association/evaluation, and so go on. It is basically something that supposed to help LLM get closer to understanding the "world" rather than just spewing out whatever the training dataset give it. It does have a direct implication for technical writing, because with stronger understanding of the things you wanted to write about in technical writing, LLM with World Model would basically auto-fill that.

    This is something that the researchers are pretty much all hand on deck working on to create.

    One example of the research involving this

  • There are active researches on world model working alongside with llm. The idea generally is that llm is used for generating text, but world model provide more context for llm to understand the world.

  • Yeah, though it would be more challenging to make a living when it lower the barrier of entry for writers.

  • To be fair, it a REALLY good hammer.

  • I thought about bringing up technical writing, then I realized that it's a possibility that even that job isn't safe within the next 5 years considering the promising development of Spiking Neural Net. This is something I would probably suggests to your daughter at this point that she should probably reconsider her chosen field and try to enter biology or some stable job.

  • It would make it even more important to have sites like Goodread where books are recommended by communities.

  • "I would stop making things exclusives if I am a monopoly..." - Said the billionaire.

  • Yeah, and I am honestly surprised that you could do ok for AI on Mac since I was pretty sure that Tensorflow/Pytorch are pretty much CUDA implementation primarily and only have recently worked on branching out to other API.

  • On other hand, I kind of want Microsoft and Apple to force it through, charge $60/mo and lose all of their users within a few days and see Linux population exploded. Ah one can dream...

  • I guess it depends on circumstances, for an example, I would develop GUI Toolkit that utilizes Vulkan Compute for computing various indicators and trading analysis on the front-end that takes in billions of candlesticks for second by second tradings. Having a real-time feedback by adjusting the indicator algorithm is very handy to have in a trading software.

  • Only fitting.

  • Well, I've worked for the government (as contractor), corporations, and small businesses, I could count a few times I've seen people using Apple Mac Pro devices on one hand (more often seeing Macbook Pro rather, but very rarely for development) and more time than I can count on either Linux or Windows workstation computers.

    We use Linux desktop often, because most of our servers are running on Linux so it helps to have version conformity when matching up with server's versioning and we occasionally use Windows for Visual Studio, proprietary software and so forth. But there are a few times where we get discounts for buying software for Linux rather than Windows.

    Employees in my office switched from Apple Macbook Pro to Windows/Linux based laptops like Framework Laptop, because Macbook Pro often time lacked GPU that you would find on Linux and Windows workstation. Apple is going off on it's own little world with their own Metal API/GPU and it doesn't reflect the reality in real world emerging technologies. For instance, there are some computational challenges that in my office, we make use of Vulkan Compute so that we can purchase both Nvidia GPU and AMD GPU to generate real-time data, had we used Metal API and Apple's products, it would've been cheaper to purchase cloud compute servers. (We wanted to ensure each developer can test the given Vulkan code on their own desktop/workstation.)
