These are the book I always recommend to friends and colleagues. There are runners up based on taste, such as Zero to One,The Making of the Atomic Bomb, and Anathema.
I found this exercise interesting, and as arcade79 pointed out it is the cost of replication not the cost to Google. Humorously I wonder the cost of of replicating Higgs-Boson verification or Gravity Wave detection would be.
Xenophobic is not really the correct term here. Political and social efforts to extract or maintain wealth for the incumbency is part of human society forever, e.g. the rollback of the Great Councils reforms in Venice and the fall of the republic Rome.
It’s not a myth. Every week my parents or children request I’d remove malware or adware from their android device that they installed. On my other children’s tablet or family iPhone this has never been a problem once.
If this story were at all true, then you know very well that not everyone in science works hard. In my graduate cohort, those who did the sets first year, set themselves into research, and worked hard graduated. Those who did not left with a masters, although many found success in other fields. It was quite clearly delineated.
In this area, Rivian's are everywhere and Cybertrucks are non-existent. Has anyone seen a compilation or response from Tesla why they didn't follow their own design decisions that started with the sportster through the E -- build a car that people already know and are familiar with -- and instead take a lark on the Cybertruck?
We have the world without it available for inspection. The Android ecosystem is a shambling mess compared to the quality that is availabe in the Apple Playstore. It does look heaps better on many dimensions.
I had a similar path. In the 90’s I was very much into Magic. Too much. But in 2017 I picked up Pokémon TCG and enjoyed it immensely. The local scene was strong pre-covid, and regional tournaments were a blast.
I wish this preference applied to governments as well. No government should have dominion over more than either a a certain percentage of people nor a certain percentage of production capacity.
Every teacher and nurse in my cohort had student loan payoff as part of their employment offer, and quickly retired their debt. This was in multiple states across the country.
Report to other governments the allocation and distribution of government steel purchasing, and thereby provide estimates for the production and maintenance of warships, subs, tanks, and other vehicles.
saberience’s reply should be read because it is more complete and insightful, but perhaps there is a simpler intuitive answer. Error rates increase exponentially.
It seems historically, unscrupulous corporations and governments entrench their power by holding back technology from wider adoption or further development. As long as technology can be used by a significant portion of the populace, they all seem to lead to a more egalitarian society. I would hope AI is no different.
I went to graduate school at 30, and became and industry researcher at 35. My main advice is to realize that there is a lot of work in the transition, and your co-workers/advisor/etc will not care much about your previous accomplishments. You'll need to prove yourself again, but being comfortable with having to do that is worthwhile.
While air is a passive requirement, I would suggest that writing, the printing press, speakers, radio, television, and the web are all more similar. They are intentionally used to increase engagement of content intentionally created.
I think it’s not wrong, just incomplete. Doing a good job on an important problem will be rewarded, in time. Once a persons impact and reliability is trusted, opportunities come to them.
Can you name a few people positions as an example? Particularly in lifetime earnings and total comp government work in teaching, chemistry, and administrative work is 1.5x or more that of theprivate sector median with much stronger protections. In particular pensiins, health care, and early retirement make up for a lot in terms of starting hourly wage.
One empirical study of this is the Georgia land lottery of 1832. For the first generation, median wealth increased. But by the 2nd generation wealth reverted to the mean, and by the 3rd there was no measurable affect by lineage.
Thank you for the number. In context, the EU is 15% of revenue for most ad based tech platforms, and its regulation has shown unbounded control over them.
Southern California starting salary is 80k and student loan forgiveness. After a few years and education attainment increases most teachers are making well over 100k for 10 months at 35 hours per week.
Why doesn’t the article list salary, or list it in comparison to median for the location.
