A bit tangential.

Offshoring to India is being done in engineering fields as well. Many international Refinery / Petrochemical/ Offshore platform engineering companies have huge design office here.

>>>> fabricated in TSMC 7nm process and runs at 800 MHz, providing 102.4 TOPS at INT8 precision and 51.2 TFLOPS at FP16 precision. It has a thermal design power (TDP) of 25 W.

So 2 generation of immediate improvement available.

Wait till some one pulls a Cerberus for MEMORY. And than we connect a wafer scale processor with wafer scale memory and BOOM. New Mega size works emerge.

As for current claim, it might have to do with the amount of time spent taming the wildness of answer by raw GPT-4. So focus is shifting from increasing the model size.

If they can release ChatGPT level competitive open source models, this will be there biggest proof-of-concept backed marketing. After all, their business is selling hardware to a variety of business and institutions.

Ditto. I close few credit cards because of usage drop. Paying with UPI is easier and at least 10x accepted.

Moreover, within a year or so, UPI will start accepting Credit card linking as well. Things are really moving FAST here.

I am waiting for DDR5 prices to normalise. Simple.

>>> is a common occurrence to find people with multiple Aadhar or Voter cards.<<<

Voter cards yes, but AADHAR : No. I haven’t heard anyone still able to have two Aadhar number which are based on biometrics (Fingerprint + Iris Scan).

As for the accuracy of survey data, at least in new village, I know it to be nearly correct. Not grocery incorrect.

Ohhh the classic enterprise PROCEDURES ;)

I concluded one of the last year deals in 8 months total from the first Mail I sent. Fortunately, 1 day before deadline (31st Dec) there were 4 different departments heads (each at least 2 level above my rank but still below C-level) involved with extended working hours on 30th December…… Ha ha.

So when the next renewal comes up, I am gonna kick-start the procedure 12 months in advance. :D

For my mental peace.

Mine lessons in primary school was a bit of variation.

3 Steps, to be repeated thrice in the order written.

1. Stretch O and keep M short.

2. Keep O and M equal length.

3. Keep O short and stretch M.

Thank you. :) This reinforced my dream-big ideas.

I hope they bring the mmWave frequency enabled models to India also.

I guess Elon Musk will be interested in taking one of these things to Mars. He is almost getting the transport capability part done.

100%. It has to be that easy. I hope soon.

Meanwhile current Indian government repealed 100s of Laws / Acts.

There goes my daily work driver. Surprisingly, it still works awesome with all lots of civil engineering softwares. 16GB DDR3 with an i7 4th Gen. There is no reason to discard it yet. Historically as soon as Microsoft dropped Win7, many of these software followed suit. This is the reason we had to abandon God number of PCs. This time out will be my PC as well than.

Quoting from newsroom >>>>> There was a media article regarding Nikon's withdrawal of SLR development. This media article is only speculation and Nikon has made no announcement in this regards. Nikon is continuing the production, sales and service of digital SLR. Nikon appreciate your continuous support.<<<<<

Notice how they didn't mention continuation of "DEVELOPMENT"!

I will quote from their actual pricing page. https://www.hetzner.com/cloud

Removing public IPv4 gets you a discount of €0.50 / month on the server.

It has began.

My favourite side effect is the Graphics Card prices coming back to realities.

Same for me. 2015 or so. FarmVille addiction. Once I clicked 1200 times straight to farm/plaugh/seed, my fingers heart. So searched for a solution and found click recorders . Not exactly cheat but once I started using the auto click, I was out of addiction within a month and left game in Two month.

So how many transistors ( or GATES? ) that 10mm^2 is at 130nm?

Meanwhile in India, offline micro payment has become more convenient than Cash. Look for UPI. Unified Payment Interface. I regularly make payment of INR 10 ( USD 0.13) for a cup of Tea at a roadside stall.

What intrigues me is that once we achieve HUMAN level intelligent AI, that wouldn't be end of evolution/growth, imaging 5 yeas after human-level achievement. Machine AI wouldn't be bound by Theory-Of-Evolution-By-Natural-Selection-In-A-Million-Year. So the logical conclusion is, Humans would be inferior intelligence after that point !!! Just imagine.

I am hoping for Sodium based batteries breakthrough more than increased lithium mining. All those static grid storage don’t need weight advantages of lithium. Neither home storage.

Once a working computer is available commercially, A mandate would be issued by the central government ministries to 250+ Public Sector Undertaking ( Companies with >50% govt equity) to procure only these RISCV computers. This way we can definitely bring it up to speed real fast.

PS: From my experience working currently for one of those PSUs .

H.264 currently. Next RTMP, followed by AV1

The climax would be when intel regains the process lead and Apple start manufacturing ARM processors at Intel foundry.

This seems such a good trick. We could even do it at cloudflare rule level I guess.

This would be revoked soon enough right?

If the west goes ahead, east will have more systems similar to Swift!
