When I'd get stuff, I'd always offer it to the employees first. My employees used to encourage vendors to show up to get free stuff. I'd let them get whatever they could. One employee got free night vision goggles.

That is not really true. Yes, there are jump instructions being executed when you run interference on a model, but they are in no way related to the model itself.

The model is data. It needs to be operated on to get information out. That means lots of JMPs.

If someone said viewing a gif is just a bunch of if-else's, that's also true. That the data in the gif isn't itself a bunch of if-else's isn't relevant.

Executing LLM'S is particularly JMP heavy. It's why you need massive fast ram because caching doesn't help them.

Microsoft has continued improving the Java Minecraft. I can't see a reason to complain.

Given that the weights in a model are transformed into a set of conditional if statements (GPU or CPU JMP machine code), he's not technically wrong. Of course, it's more than just JMP and JMP represents the entire class of jump commands like JE and JZ. Something needs to act on the results of the TMULs.

AI didn't write the insurance policy. It only helped him search for the best deal. That's like saying your insurance company will cancel you because you used a phone to comparison shop.

It's likely intentional. What's the point of a good reputation if you don't milk it for profit? Bestbuy alternates between good and bad. Build a good reputation, the cut corners for profit for several years until people notice while banking that profit. Then restart the good reputation.

Dragon's Lair was a hugely popular arcade game that worked that way.

Transportation is necessary. Roads existed long before cars. You didn't even watch the video. The problem was the road couldn't handle a bus turning.

Why should anybody agree to give up their land for roads?

Transportation of some sort is needed. It doesn't matter if it is for bikes, trains, or cars. Land must be used for the good of the people. Absolute ownership, no matter the cost to society is capitalist-brain.

I don't think it's a coincidence that MS fixed Windows search when Google had its Google Desktop search product and Windows Search went back to horrible when Google discontinued Desktop Search.

You can find files faster on Windows by using the command line dir command with recursion switch and watch every directory tree scroll by until it finds the file than wait for the GUI even when Indexed.

 

"Emmitsburg Mayor Frank Davis voted for Donald Trump in hopes he would cut federal spending. Now Davis hopes those cuts don't include the permanent cancellation of classes at the National Fire Academy, which is part of the town's identity and helps drive its economy. Davis is also a chief at Emmitsburg's firehouse, known as the Vigilant Hose Company."

Trump killed the Fema training academy. It's not coming back.
