If it's been going on since 2019, i'd assume an investigation has happened in the last 6 years. So a comment on why it's still allowed seems reasonable.

Rather than a lack of algorithmic definition. Math has a funny way of describing more than just our reality, perhaps they aren't working within the correct restrictions to the mathematical parameters that went into their logical proof. Until they can state exactly what is undefinable by physics, and we are unable to define it... I'll just keep ansuming this is less a proof of simulation being impossible, and more that, we lack the current understanding of how the simulation might work.

You dont need one equation to run a simulation, you can work with many. And the simulation only has to apply what your 'players' are observing at a given time for the given things they are observing. If the simulation known how complex it needs to simulate something, and it only needs to do it for 'players' in the simulation to higher complexities, the room for optimization seems pretty large to make the physical requirements much less than impossibly high.

in any case, the whole non algorithmic stuff sounds like a matter of ignorance rather than an impossibliity to define rules for something. Maybe an ignorance we are incapable of overcoming because the simulation won't create something that can, to stop the recursive problem (or we've reached the recursive level where simulating in a simulation is incapable of being good enough to offer that level of understanding due to it's accumulated approximations of true reality)

The dollhouse is the one that used human brains for compute power

Youtube music in getting absolutely filled with ai slop songs. I'm constantly having to thumbs down them when i hear their very obvious formula.
Though, i doubt youtube understands i'm thumbing down garbage ai songs and not anything to do with the metadata about the type of music. My feeds are likely very odd now to their algo considering what i have liked vs thumbed down.

Ai music really needs to have identification mandatory tagged and filterable. It's tedious and tiring to keep having to deal with it.

Pretty sure this sounds like direct die liquid cooling with the added post processing of etching some channels that increase surface area and direct flow.

Seems pretty logical for an improvement to direct die cooling (which has been around forever). Just takes the work done to water blocks and implements them in micro scale on the silicon itself.

My concern would be with such tiny channels, how frequently they would get clogged by inevitable partially dissolved minerals picked up over time from the radiator and other metal in the system.

My experience with water blocks has been, the smaller the channels, the more frequent the maintenance is needed to retain 'like new' performance. Granted, silicon isn't metal, so maybe it doesn't attract deposits.

Well, less sad and more better than expected. Given the behavior of the bcache maintainer/creator, i fully expected it to be torn out entirely. It's experimental after all, so removing it was totally on the table.

If it can't be expressed as a boolean, that doesn't mean it's not real. It just means it is expressed by a different data type. Or do you think only boolean exists? Or that this website is infallible in it's choices of data types?

It's nice when the market actually, finally, punishes companies that deserve it. Dont care that intel is us based. It actually makes me wish for their failure more because i'm not a fan of us companies relying on underhanded tactics instead of quality. They're not lonely in that....unfortunately.

Piracy

Mine can't because i removed the radio board onstar uses (not just the antennas). No ota updates...no remote access to anything. My phone via android auto handles infotainment. As god intended (since there is no aftermarket for such 'head units' anymore).

Financial aid would generally be less than the cost of the course, which someone still has to pay. How does getting a bot to take a class for you just to apply for and get financial aid netting you money?

I'm not following the scheme here. If anything, the school / teacher stands to gain by doing something like this - assuming they forge the identities of the bots and leave the bill with those suckers.

anti consumer architectures that force users to spend more every upgrade.
anti competitive agreements with laptop and desktop oems.
synthetically limited chips to force users to buy much more expensive versions to 'unlock' those features.

I'm good with not supporting intel until they start supporting what customers want a bit more than what their shareholders want... until those things become aligned a lot more.

enshitification isn't limited to ads being included or increased in a given thing.

it's about the company producing the product or service, treating the desire of their investors above those of their customers to the detriment of the long term survival of the company and/or degradation of existing features and functionality of the products or services in question.

the idea here is by taking the product or service out of one company's hands, they can't deliver what their investors want while degrading their product or service, because people will walk over to a competitor.

it sounds good in theory, but the idea that you could decentralize such things in the same way as email ignores the fact that spam exists because of this and most email services now block email unless it comes from approved forwarders and domains which basically means if you do your email from some place not 'approved' it might be treated as second class or not delivered at all. it's also one thing to decentralize something like email, but a serial media type of service has to store data. what share of your communication is going some server that is used for evil or is turned off at some point? how would that system even be organized?

maybe this guy thinks social media could be implemented like IRC and servers follow the same protocol but aren't interconnected.

i find it really hard to care either way if social media turns to crap. a website forum / feedback post is as close as i get to social media. let it die in fire and rip everyone off involved. it seems more harmful than any good in provides to users.

there are two extremes used to deal with application level network traffic use. the normal way which can interrupt applications during high load and lead to poor performance or a busy polling mode which forces the app to use 100% cpu to ensure it doesn't get interrupted.

this patch lets an app do both when it makes sense based on traffic load it's handling. idle/ low traffic is 'normal' mode and in high traffic it behaves like the busy polling mode and this happens dynamically.

sounds like a good thing. the advertised savings is in relation to how often the existing static configs are not needed.

at least that's what i got from the article

unlike previous revolutions that take a long time and create new industries, ai doesn't create a new industry for humans. its ultimate goal is to eliminate jobs or reduce how many humans are needed to do them. that's it.

not really sure how that sounds like a good idea to anyone... including rich people. everything depends on lots of people spending money on stuff and all ai seems designed to accomplish is reducing how many people have money to spend on stuff.

though, i guess we can just hope we move to a fully socialist or post capitalism society before it becomes less a tech revolution and more of the old-style violent kind. i honestly don't see how anyone looks at the future of what ai does for the world and sees it as positive. not while money matters anyway.
