I liked Jennifer Switzer's junkyard computing paper and it's cool to see her still working this idea.

Only given us the means to destroy ourselves and ruin our planet.

Why does nobody act like it is then? I don't use Arch but every Arch user talks about the Aur so matter-of-factly yet nobody treats it with the caution that it demands.

Many people worry about children not reading enough but when you look at the parents they're all on their phones.

Monkey see monkey do. If you want kids to read habitually then you need to read habitually.

> At ABI Research, where I work as an aerospace analyst, we did a rough total-cost-of-ownership comparison between a data center on Earth and one in space. It showed that the cost to launch and run a GPU in space for a year is at least an order of magnitude higher than the same feat in a terrestrial data center.

Don't worry. They'll find some freak that actually enjoys it and is even willing to be paid less!

Good. Telecoms should have a duty to know who uses their networks.

Thanks. That's still very interesting that they don't need Nvidia to do any of this. Nvidia stock has been priced like AI isn't possible without them.

So they run on TPUs and not Nvidia chips?

They're a monopoly.

We already have a thriving marketplace of seating- it's called the airline industry. You can buy a seat on a plane from dozens if not hundreds of sellers online.

Not all problems have technical solutions.

We need a national conversation (which we seem to be having) about the corrosive nature of these algos.

I personally think they should be liable for much more than they are under section 230.

Meh. Don't package it then. They could start by releasing source. The Linux community might be fragmented but they're also good at packaging software!

I love the dueling messages on AI

"It'll make software easy and replace all software jobs!"

"Sorry, a Linux client is too hard and too much work!"
