I didn't do anything crazy like actually read the article, but I did go as far as to read the third sentence of the summary, which began like this:

.... and that would seem to indicate that IPv6 is currently handling around half of Internet traffic.

The reasons for not travelling seem questionable though, and you could argue that it wouldn't be safe for Indian staff to travel to the US.

Singing is pretty much a commodity service now. With autotune almost anyone can do it, but you can hire a professional for not a lot of money. It's good that people get work instead of AI slop, but also the rates are very low and it's a side gig at most.

The people who making a living from it tend to have other talents too. Song writing, stage performance, looking conventionally attractive, building up a social media following, etc.

AI probably won't change much in that respect.

That's good advice for individuals building a home system for personal use. It's not really applicable for businesses and companies, though, since they likely don't have the expertise or the man-hours required to cobble together their business-critical systems from used parts. They're going to want to buy new, from a company that give them good support if/when anything goes wrong.

It's incredible that anyone still invests in it, after Musk publicly admitted it was a scam.

And "the only solution for trips over 300 miles"? Less than an hour via existing maglev technology, which both Japan and China are deploying as we speak. That's just the start though, maglev can probably double that speed, close to the speed of sound. The issue is the noise, and you don't need a vacuum tube to solve it.

I'm hoping for more than normal. Big floods of used but perfectly serviceable drives and memory hitting the market, at bankruptcy prices.

Also can they please hurry up and get LTO 10 out the door, so that LTO 8 drives get cheap? Thanks.

It's a borderline scam, where so many jobs, even minimum wage ones, need a degree just to get past the application submission stage, that a degree is almost mandatory in many fields. A lot of it is employers transferring the cost of training to the employee.

It also blows the meritocracy arguments out of the water, because a person's ability to get high level qualifications is highly dependent on their ability to pay. Not just pay for college, but to not work so much they don't have time to do extra studying or non-core activities.

It'll get used, if using it is more profitable than letting it go dark. Given the infrastructure costs of keeping all that hardware running, it's not a given that it will be. Once the investor $$$ stop flowing and the debt limits are hit, we'll see how much of the AI hardware build-out can really pay for its own room and board, and how much was just 'peacock feathers' whose only real purpose was to impress gullible investors into handing over their money.

Guy who doesn't buy Apple gear complains about Apple prices! News at 11!!!

Speak for yourself. It's totally acceptable to me and plenty of others.

The only way to win is to have already bought.

Computers have over 20GB of RAM.
Computers have several TB of storage.

I'm all good.

Boeing hired Usain Nonbolt

Somebody got it (;

Good job!

It's fill in the blank. Mentally insert any word you feel is correct.

AI generates insufficient revenue per resources in its current form. So many things will go back to normal once the poppage completes.

It's like a bad zit that is not poppable, so gets worse the more you try.

BurstGPT!
