Fukushima Volume 2? Probably not given that the Fukushima earth quake was a 9.0. These measurements are exponential so there's a pretty sizable difference between 7.6 and 9.0.

7.6 is still enough for some damage though. Hopefully that's all at a minimum for you folks over there. Best wishes.

Oh good I found a bot. Good luck training your llm here whoever you are.

It's still the exact same silicon and it's got the same problems. Not all of them burn out but some of them do.

The real question is how long until it's replaced by newer or better hardware. Basically will we see custom hardware replace video cards soon for llm acceleration. Similar to what we saw with Bitcoin.

That Won't help consumers because the Fab capacity is just going to go to different silicone, but it does mean that a whole shitload of these gpus will become worthless. I guess some of them will show up on eBay. I got a lot of use out of an old rx580 that was a mining card. I think it did eventually die on me but I got about six good years out of it.

That's a one-time Bonanza though. And it's assuming we get it. The real loser there would be Nvidia since if they get replaced on the AI market with custom hardware then their market value is going to crash harder than I think any market value has ever crashed

Money laundering is the backbone of the entire cryptocurrency market. Although Trump has made corruption into a strong contender.

The greatest rap channel on YouTube, Patrick Boyle's, has a video about one of the major scams collapsing because the big boys have integrated crypto into sectors of our economy so there isn't enough excitement about it anymore to keep some of the financial scams going.

Also with the economy collapsing due to incompetent mismanagement from on high the stock market's going with it. And a lot of these scams were riding the stock market.

Still as long as we refuse to regulate the money laundering crypto isn't going anywhere. You'll Still lose your shirt when you invest in it and desperately try to hide it from your wife. But the big boys are in the pool now and so they're going to suck up all the scam money

Until the comment about equality. You need to work on your bait. When it's too obvious you just come off like an idiot.

I do sense a little desperation. A little bit of cope. Something is happening that you know is going to hurt you and your worldview isn't equipped to deal with it.

Ellison's sprog is an el Bunko favorite, a right-wingnut. So naturally, el Bunko figures he can destroy the Netflix deal and throw the remains to Ellison's sprog, for which there will be a trail of bread crumbs back to his pockets. He never does anything except for himself.

Paying wages. That's the problem AI is designed to solve. It is not a consumer product it is capital that will be used to replace you.

And remember they do not need to replace all of us. Doing something like 15 to 25% would completely hollow out consumer spending which is already under threat because massive income inequality means that 80% of our consumer spending comes from baby boomers and those people have about 10 years left before they are pushing up daisies.

And they will not be leaving any inheritance to speak of. What they don't spend on RVs and morning mimosas is going to be eating up by collapsing healthcare systems.

The system of capitalism is being dismantled. It's not breaking down it's being broken down. And if you are under 65 you are going to experience that process. And if you have less than 100 million in your bank account it's not going to be fun.

IF this tech spreads? What makes you think it hasn't already?

ChemE and/or MSE are potential first steps into the wild world of semiconductor fabrication.

That's . . . not entirely true. AI researchers are some of the most highly-sought-after professionals on the market today. Do they have degrees in "AI"? Probably not, since these degrees are fairly novel and it remains to be seen how well universities can train to meet the needs of companies hiring for AI research today. That being said, there's the distinct possibility that "AI degrees" may be mostly fluff.

Because the last I checked chemistry majors like that had a rough time in the job market. If you could find a job the pay was good but the problem was they're just weren't enough of them.

It is just as likely that you're seeing more of this because people who would normally be forced to drop out because they lack basic accommodations are getting those accommodations and are able to finish the program now.

We are long since past the point where life needs to be a constant battle to see who gets to have food and shelter. But we keep that system going.

Can he tariff California? (answer: no)

That can certainly change . . .

Having read the article, it seems like picking human rights certainly is an option! Especially given how those products of abuses are under heavy scrutiny and risk near-future bans.
