Comment Re: TypeScript? (Score 2) 65

I use claude regularly (we have to). I'm not sure what text animation is being required ...,it doesn't do anything you haven't seen it any ncurses type of application and any animation is simply aesthetic in the tool. All of the actual content is effectively just scrolling the text the ai or tools output or menu driven navigation. Again, i think the framework and stack was chosen because that's just what they use in general first and foremost. You dont need high performance to rotate a stupid 'waiting' text phrase while waiting for tools or network calls to complete and you dont need game engine performance when every interaction with the tool has to talk to the ai cloud service and (if you are using the expensive models) wait multiple minutes for a response.

Claude just needs to load fast, relatively..,it doesn't need to do anything else fast because the bottleneck is the ai calls or tools. Python would be perfectly fine here. Ideal even. The reason why not was likely not related to performance primarily. 3.12 python is plenty fast for a higher level language with a ton of experienced developers for it. It's likely that the choice came down to what the dev team uses elsewhere....and so just code it in the same language. Companies work that way far more often than 'best tool for the job'.

Comment Defeats the whole purpose of patents (Score 3, Insightful) 89

Not surprising, but patents (in the US) really need to be a use it or lose it thing. They're not intended to prohibit inventions, but protect them temporarily from competition. You should lose them if you dont have a product in customer hands within a year of it being granted and if you stop making it available, the patent becomes forfeit. But i guess this is just one thing in a long list of patent reforms needed. Also, this is a stupid patent, but nevertheless, a gross misuse of patents.

Comment Less about foreign talent and just about cheaper t (Score 1) 92

This is all about cost of labor. Not filling gaps in talent pools domestically. Unless the company is hiring in a different country to support products they are selling to that locality, the us government should tax the us company the avg wage difference for every hire made in a foreign country. Then we can see what is about filling gaps in talent vs exploiting global flexibility of a company vs individual laborers.

Comment Lack of imagination (Score 5, Insightful) 248

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)

Comment Next youtube music? (Score 1) 18

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.

Comment Direct die with more surface area (Score 1) 27

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.

Comment Intel did dirty business and deserves to lose (Score 2) 91

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.
