I was baffled and urged him to be careful and assume he was wrong that it had to be wrong.
Anyways, he is still fixing it, getting some people to validate it.
I would think he will save at least hundreds of thousands a year.
But seriously, why a company that spends millions of dollars in an area would not hire an expert to try to save some money in it is beyond me.
Most people are on phones now, who uses computers if not for work?
But I guess one could argue using phones would be the same, but even then my personal experience is that most people don't know much about phones either.
I feel like a quasi-expert on these subjects because of it. lol
I'd suggest looking into Alcubierre Warp Drive, cool story on why the guy came up with it and shows how to wrap spacetime around a spaceship to make it go faster than light.
The ship wouldn't go faster than light because it wouldn't move at all, the spacetime around it would.
The channel below has quite a few other videos on the subject. I love it.
Pretty cool code btw, it has a rule array that with the error msgs, very easy to follow even tho it was webpacky.
Then I realized the errors were displayed at the bottom of the page.
What good is a VPN when multiple apps on your computer are phoning home?
If the law has a suspect IP, couldn't they just ask google, microsoft and facebook what accounts were accessed with that IP?
To use a VPN correctly wouldn't have to use a fresh OS and absolutely not login to any accounts connected to the IP you are trying to hide?
But if I asked if the claimant name was in the PDF it answered yes.
I am assuming the PDF to Text is not working great here, which I supposed is the whole point.
All the electronics and gimmicks to lower immediate emissions at the cost of reliability.
My car, for instance, turns off the engine when stopped, that can't be good for the engine and battery.
If saves a bit of gas but I am sure I'll have to change my battery sooner, not to mention the wear and tear on other components.
Now it's starting to get worse and worse.
I block SMS notifications since I only get spam there (I'm Brazilian, SMS is basically dead here)
With proof of work there is incentive for people not invested in crypto to mine as much as possible and sell everything.
If a big enough computer is created, someone not interested in crypto can take money away from it, or if the computer is big enough even destroy it, a quantum computer for instance, should make a 51% attack on a network as proof it is a quantum computer.
I know it is unlikely, I myself think is impossible. But the incentive is there.
With proof of stake there is no incentive to do it, a 51% attack is idiotic since you have to buy so much.
I wonder if you are too far off "normal" it won't recognize you correctly, eg age.
It seems to be down rn
What consumer apps actually use Neural Engines?
I think something like Photoshop, maybe. But wouldn't it just train a model and use it as regular code?
I'm interested in AI, but it's a joke to me about startups and jargon more often than not.
I feels weird to add this to all chips when I can't see that much usage.
I also find your comment on republicans quite wrong, since I don't see many differences between republicans vs democrats.
Both have been running ever increasing deficits, each president tops all previous presidents combined.
You can't really say any of the US policies have liberal.
How can you say rates would be higher absent the FED buying it?
Rates aren't negative nominally, but they are negative taking inflation into account.
If you start giving mortgages with artificially low interest rates, people who haven't produced things to offset their consumption will get houses, which will increase the prices.
Of course a lot of other factors play roles into this.
> It’s hard to blame people for wanting a roof over their heads.
I, in turn, find your statement quite naive, it would be great if everyone had a house, that doesn't mean we should just give it them, there are consequences, the prices will rise.
So we would call multiple times, speaking fast during the first 3 seconds then hanging up.
Then they blocked it, after 10 3 sec calls calls and you couldn't make calls for a while.

> BMI accounted for a substantial proportion
In the "Role of BMI" they also say that BMI isn't perfect to detect adiposity, suggesting even further that being fat is what you want to avoid.
> Finally, given the observational nature of this study, it is possible that there is still unmeasured confounding, residual confounding, and reverse causality.
Studying human diets is hard.
Less people die because of nature disasters and such today that they did 100 years ago.
Technology and medicine helps us, they would, without a doubt, be better off with technology than they do without it.
They couldn't care less for those forgotten children.
They could use cars, ambulances, hospitals and etc.
Nature is brutal, always has been, no one lives on harmony with it.
Look at the indigenous peoples death rate, child mortality.
We would need to be using way more fossil fuels / nuclear to have more equality.
This idea to reduce our impact in nature forgets the most vulnerable, which could use some impact in nature in order to have more prosperity.
Well, this is all way easier said than done.
It's a low res monitor, but that font was supposed to be bulky, rendering on a low res monitor shouldn't look soft.
58T is the opposite of pretty reasonable.
Even if you could assume it wouldn't need any maintenance, which you can't, it's too much money for anything.
If thats small, how can you describe the size of nuclear power plants required to do the same job?
And power plants would be way smaller and aren't impractical.
In the case of the iPhone you might need to find a cheap flight to the US, but a Macbook will land you a couple days in Disney.
Money supply inflation might not directly influence price inflation, though we see price inflation in asset prices, such as stocks and properties.
My point is more on the government saying it needs inflation, when even without price increases inflation might be happening.
We have increasing productivity, cost has been falling, so if prices stay fixed, therefore no price inflation, the people are still paying more than they should.
The value of things have been falling, but prices haven't.
My point doesn't depend on this tho, measuring inflation by rising prices isn't ideal, because you will be measuring multiple things at once, and only the people lose in that case.
Prices can rise and fall for multiple reasons, and knowing why helps to fix it.
If the price goes up because of a shortage, the increase in price helps stimulate more production.
Governments get the advantage of being able to inflate the money supply to the point were it prevents prices from falling, ensuring easier reelection at the price of the people paying more for things and effectively taxing savers.
