Has OpenAI made that video yet?

There is nothing wrong with clashing personalities, you get some additional benefits from complementary skills. One famous case is Eisenhower and Patton. That said, these legendary generals are just offered to illustrate complementary skills, Sam and Elon are not being compared to them.

Seriously. ;-)

That said, who is more paranoid about AI. Sam or Elon? I want that person in control.

I like a different spin on that. "You get what you reward, not what is best."

That was the phrase they used when they were training us that there is no magic bullet to measure performance. That judging performance is a hard job, stop reaching for this year's new snake oil. Do your job, know what's going on, who needs help with something. NEVER punish someone for admitting they need help with something, just do all you can for them.

As for hate, Dem politicians definitely exceed him at times. In their hatred, some of them become, and exceed, what they claim to hate. Or so they act in front of cameras. There are reports that when cameras are not present, they too are more reasonable.

Basically the same point I raised in an earlier discussion of this... What to call this? A leveraged buyout of the imagination?

However it makes about as much sense as most merger shenanigans and I would approve if at least one of the side effects was that eBay disappeared.

But I want to find a recursive joke somewhere around here... Something about eBay auctions/sales of merger/acquisitions/divestitures?

Also, anything sounds big when you put it in gallons. Doesn't sound so big when you mention that's 92 acre feet, the amount used by less than 20 acres / 8 hectares of alfalfa per year. Or when you mention that a typical *closed loop* 1GW nuclear reactor uses 6-20 billion gallons of cooling water per year (once-through uses 200-500 billion gallons, though most of that is returned, whereas closed loop evaporates it)

I don't think it has anything to do with that. As soon as I saw the headline, my mind went "cohort study". And sure enough, yeah, it's a cohort study. Remember that big thing about how wine improves your health, and then it turned out to just be that people who drink wine tend to be wealthier and thus have better health outcomes? And also, the "sick quitter" effect, where people who are in worse health would tend to stop drinking, so you ended up with extra sick people in the non-wine group? Same sort of thing. This study says they're controlling for a wide range of factors, but I'd put money on it just being the same sort of spurious correlations.

At least some of this will be stress. If you're enjoying something, then you won't be stressed. If you're feeling positive and delighting in what you do, then you won't be stressed in unhealthy ways. This looks similar to the Mozart Effect, which turned out to be that if you liked something, your brain functioned better.

Yes, charging around the stage playing rock music isn't exactly gentle, but it IS extremely good exercise for the heart and the rest of the body. Again, that's going to have positive effects.

(We can ignore Keith Richards in this model, as he's older than the universe and only created it as a place to store his guitars.)

I think it's different people, Were you thinking they got the original team to come out of retirement for this? lol.

Doesn''t it come with an alias CC number? One that can be reset? That's pretty damn useful for online purchases.

Where computers are required at K-12 the schools typically provide something. The recently introduced MacBook Neo is specifically made for this market. K-12 mostly gave up on iPads, now they seem to be questioning Chromebook. Apple wants to recapture K-12.

The Neo is nerf'd in various ways to make it less attractive to traditional Apple buyers. But for K-12 it will work great despite these.

The campus book stores typically had (have) an informal computer store integrated into it. At many universities this led to a separate and independent campus computer store.Typically doing some support as well. Configuration, software installation, sometimes even service/repairs. I had one of these in grad school. We had to have a laptop on an approved list (pick one of these 3 Dells). It would ship to the campus computer store, they would configure it with the disk image my department developed. More than just MS Office, the department had some addition licensed software we would use in some of our core classes.

Yes.
