It's not just market cap. nVidia's net income (profit) is higher than Intel's entire revenue. nVidia's revenue is rising year on year, while Intel's is shrinking. And Intel had massive losses last year, unsustainably large losses.

There is always a nugget of truth, but that is used to justify disproportionate and a poor response. Clinton cut 400,000 employees, but hacking at headcount was not how it was done. It was a slow process, following the normal government processes and in collaboration, not the wild adversarial and demoralizing method under Trump. Lawsuits didn't happen because the rules were followed. The biggest method used by the Clinton administration was eliminating government processes which didn't need to be performed anymore, which takes time and diligence to uncover and wind down in a way which doesn't invite lawsuits. It is slow work but produced results.

So the article is clickbait.

The journalists are tacking on the word 'AI' because it is the trend. Clickbait. This 'hawk-eye' system has been in use around the world for about decade now.

They are following the Buc-ees business model. A very limited number of locations which are mega-fuelling stations. It is far more efficient and easier to implement than running dozens of locations. A typical Buc-ees has between 80â"120 gas pumps, with all the recent major builds having 120. They do have a small number of smaller stores in rural communities but they are the exception. They have been very successful with this "build-big" approach. You don't have to worry about underperforming locations or mis-estimating the demand if you become *the* highway stop.

Because that's what class actions are for. A company harms a lot of people, but it only hurts each a little bit. Individually it would be frivolous to sue, but as a group of harmed people you can exact a legal win to punish the company. And lawyers who can package up a group of people and present the harm to a judge need to be compensated because otherwise the class action lawsuit wouldn't happen. Class action lawsuits don't always end in justice, but they are a reasonably efficient method to try to find it.

Many people, including myself, don't write code everyday, and it's not something we have to be good at. Any assistance is appreciated since the alternative is to bang away for hours, copy stuff from the Internet and try to make it fit the problem I'm trying to solve, resolve bugs etc until somehow the code works. The new tools are not a perfect time saver, but they still save much more time than they "waste".

Perplexity.ai uses several different models (automatic or manual selection) and gives sources.

Similar experience. One of my children had been doing Duolingo for 2 years in a single language. Had no idea how to say the number 7,8, or 9, by themselves or in any other context.

A subsea power cable that long is a bit unusual, as in it just isn't done unless there is no better alternative. It would be very expensive. The other options might also be expensive but you can buy an awful lot of power plant for 32 billion dollars and you wouldn't have the risk of an anchor incident. The insurance alone on a cable that long and expensive would be eyebrow-raising.

And fiber in my area. An upstart fiber company did the hard work of putting lines in my whole neighborhood about 2 years ago. This prompted AT&T to finally wake up and they upgraded their copper lines to fiber last year. The new fiber company offered no caps and a flat monthly fee and so Comcast quickly lost at least half the neighborhood.

There are benefits to higher refresh rates beyond just reducing latency or reaction times. It improves motion clarity, that is, it reduces motion blur. There are other ways to do that, like black frame insertion or backlight strobing, but those have severe negative impacts on brightness, and framegen is a way to improve motion clarity without reducing brightness. Framegen shouldn't be about improving low framerates. It should be about taking something like 60 FPS and turning it into 240 FPS for better motion clarity. Or higher, 120 FPS into 480 FPS, where the latency penalty will be minimal. Taking advantage of those high refresh rate monitors to improve motion clarity.

4K is probably the limit of what we'll ever need on TVs, because that's well past the "retina" resolution even for TVs much larger than we have now at couch distances. There's a reason why 8K televisions failed and were mostly abandoned. There's a case to be made for monitors going higher than 4K, though. You're much closer to those. They fill much more of your field of view.

I'd dispute that. First because the first GPU to support full bandwidth DisplayPort 2.X didn't come out until 2025, and second because DisplayPort 2.X can't support uncompressed 4K 240 Hz with a 12-bit colour depth. It can do it with compression, or it can do 10-bit colour depth, but not uncompressed 12bpc. That's not a big loss, I'd bet you that nobody in practice could tell the difference between 10bpc with temporal (or even spatial) dithering (which GPUs do automatically) and 12bpc. And the consumer HDR formats that use 12bpc (like Dolby Vision) use chroma subsampling.

So your argument is that technological advancement is pointless because only high-end products can benefit today?

Multi-monitor is not a feature that HDMI has ever offered. That's always been a DisplayPort thing, and I don't see anything in this article about adding multi-monitor support. However, we do need more bandwidth for higher refresh rates. Many monitors on the market today exceed the 48 Gbps that HDMI 2.1 provides, and fall back on DSC or DisplayPort to do it.
