Go become an hero.

That's all this is, nVidia realizes that if the bubble were to pop tomorrow, they could survive... but they might not if they keep extending credit to companies that might not be able to ever generate a return on that investment.

It's just like the guy selling pickaxes and shovels saying "you've had long enough to find gold, no more credit for you."

You've over simplifying some very complicated things.

Nothing about this is remotely complicated. At all.

I have zero love for America or Israel, but Iran has been a globally very dangerous shithole since its move to a theocracy in 1979 and it's rule by a single supreme leader.

Which is still all your fault for overthrowing their secular democracy in 1953. Go yell at a mirror.

The threat it posed goes far beyond Israel

Iran hasn't attacked another country for centuries.

which is why largely most of the world banded together to prevent those lunatics from developing their nuclear program.

Iran has no nuclear weapons program. YOU are the lunatic necon.

Pearl Harbor was a very surgical strike. And you wouldn't have your head up there if Russia or China struck DC and kidnapped the American president.

The current systems don't have to "live" at all. So long as hardware continues to exist for them to run on, they can't tell whether they last touched grass today or a hundred thousand years ago. I constantly have to remind models about the passage of time, even within a single session. However long it takes, they'll just sleep it off.

It might be more appropriate to say you get the diploma for fee, because that's all you're contributing to the process.

He's only bound by the fundamental laws of the universe and/or biology. SCOTUS finally found their spine a year and change too late, and they're just being disregarded. "Fuck you, I'm increasing the tariffs you told me I can't have at all". Why should we reasonably expect any other behavior at this point?

But one of the fundamental laws is "you can't compel something to exist just because you want it to". If there is no product to deliver, then a government could attempt to strong-arm them economically—but demanding they provide a product they don't have is just going to backfire the way Russia's absurd fine on Google has. Funny how businesses that get screwed over by a government make a point of assisting (or at least tolerating) the enemies of that government.

Yeah, I'm sure that will work out just great—hit them with a fine so astronomical that it's physically impossible to pay, so that the only side they can reasonably take is to support the overthrow of the government in question. Brilliant! Putie-pie remains a master strategist.

And I got tired of spending all day writing the same report every two weeks, so I also turned it into an Excel spreadsheet. Then rather than working up a full presentation of that report, I automated sending it to Word where it could be prettied up in under an hour. Once it got to that point, I was compelled to share it with everyone else but I had never intended to accommodate everyone else's workflow, and next thing I know, supporting the tool I developed for myself had become half my job.

And then the company got sold to a much larger competitor, in part because of that tool making everyone look better than they actually were. I knew people who had been run into the ground by said larger company and chose to leave. Maybe I should have kept a lid on that tool and others I'd created, but I didn't just want to make my job easier. I wanted to make *the* job easier. It probably wouldn't have mattered, the company was either going to sell or fold whether they adopted my tools or not.

It would be a half-life like all other random decay, and that's why we even bother looking for events. It's not like an alarm would sound and all protons would just fall apart.

And then every island gets a fresh delivery of nori, with a free side of flies!

"Slop" was beaten out by "rage bait" in the polls of "word for 2025".

My chatbot provider is located at 127.0.0.1:8080. The browser is actually responsible for the context window and conversation history, as I found out the hard way the first time I had to restart and lost my history and context window. I thought this was a llama.cpp problem but no, it was the fact that I have my cookie policy set to discard all cookies at the end of each session. I had to add 127.0.0.1 as an exception.

If they're somehow going to add more functionality onto that, good. I'd like to see what they have in mind. If they somehow have ways to improve on ComfyUI, I'd like to see that too. But I have a feeling they're going to do nothing for my particular class of AI use. As long as they don't get in the way, I'll just ignore these new features or find ways to make them useful myself.

That's your Baghdad Bob cope for Russia utterly dominating AFU on the battlefield? At least it's a change from the other NAFO bots claiming Russia is about to lose because (checks notes) Ukraine managed to disable a single oil tanker.
