Very cool. I added the new multi embedding 2 model to my site the other week from google

I guess need to dig into this and see if it’s faster and has more use cases! Thanks for publishing your work

Media is rich but not in proportion of the thousands of new creators doing very well. An extreme example is playboy vs only fans creators

Agreed. Its a great way to communicate, and shows the person speaking has thought out the process.

There are carbon fiber E-bikes, perhaps it’s “few” but there are people paying to have a more light bike since the extra weight up and down hill isn’t as fun

They are using AWS for the cheap part, the content and rights is far more expensive. You think it costs 50M to stream a 2 hour show for millions of people, or the production of said show/movie?

yes this is 100% accurate. All these dummies laughing at ARK/Cathie Wood while she talked about Tesla/AMD/Biotech innovation years ago. WSB is far more educated compared to MSNBC/Jim Cramer crowd.

People and the media is not stating the simple fact that they short interest has been over 100% since June. I bought a bunch and told all my friends/family about it and everything laughed at me. Now those people asking me what they think about it.

Likely they started short positions around $10 in 2019, had a nice profitable trade, started to bleed out then doubled down and increased position as it picked up momentum. Now they are far over their head and from the looks of things, stock is going to $200.

Lots of people made tons of money shorting tesla. Until they didnt and stock kept doubling.
