113M shares times $31/share is $3.5B.
That’s wild. No way the company is worth that, much less his share.
Nate Silver is no longer at 538.
There are different people running the models these days.
Everyone was wrong in 2016.
538 was the least wrong of any model anywhere.
And Nate Silver was ridiculed at the time for giving Trump such a high chance of winning, before the election.
Apple Security Bounty awards may not be paid to you if you are in any U.S. embargoed countries or on the U.S. Treasury Department’s list of Specially Designated Nationals, the U.S. Department of Commerce Denied Person’s List or Entity List, or any other restricted party lists.
Kaspersky can whine all they want. Russia is embargoed. They’re not getting their money.
Kaspersky is a good company doing good work in the cyber security space. Unfortunately, because of the embargo, they may have to turn to the black market to sell future exploits. Or maybe not; I’m not totally sure what kind of ethical standards they have.
Nvidia is in a great spot for the AI bubble.
It drives up prices now, but when the bubble eventually burst, data centers are still going to need accelerators for more viable compute tasks.
Absolutely the most robust business in the bubble.
I mean, someone is flying an upside down Betsy Ross flag in my neighborhood (the one with 13 stars in a circle).
And I live in the middle of a city.
There are still issues with WearOS, but I think some of that is hardware. Last I heard, Qualcomm’s wearable SoCs were trash, but Samsung is in a good position since they have both the SoC fab and make the watch itself.
Many industries are shifting to a model where Android is the de facto OS for consumer-facing interactions. It’s not well optimized outside of phones yet, but it is rapidly improving. Many cars run Android now, for example.
I’m moderately optimistic about the next generation of WearOS devices.
The difference is that Nixon was able to secure a pardoned in exchange for fucking off and staying out of the public eye. And to be fair, he held up his end of the deal.
No way is Donnie going to fuck off.
Unfortunately, I think it’s been demonstrated that OpenAI will feed your data into their training pipeline whether you like it or not. They did this with YouTube. And they demonstrated this with Scarlett Johanson. (Even if they used a voice actor instead of actually scraping voice clips of her, it’s still unethical.)
So we knew they’d just scrape these articles anyway. This way, at least the publications get paid.
Obviously. But that’s not an answer.
My question is: what are the concrete desires of the capital class that are being threatened?
Someone else said “oil” which is fair I guess, but very clearly a diminishing return when it’s clear that energy independence is valuable for the capital class if they control the transition, a la Elon.
So again, what do the wealthy have to gain or lose from these protests, specifically?
How do the protests and the war in Gaza threaten the wealthy?
Fine tuning a general TTS model on a specific custom voice doesn’t require as much data as you think it does.
The hard part is building the foundational model that can be easily fine tuned. And OpenAI has already done that.
In the US, I pay $90/month ($1,080/year) for 1 Gbps internet.
That’s it. No TV. No landline. Just Internet.
That’s moot. His supporters aren’t going to switch their vote to Biden over this.
What this may do, however, is prevent some moderate Republicans from switching their vote to Biden.
This is a smart move. Smart enough that I doubt the Clown Prince of Diapers came up with it himself.
Munich is cheaper for Google than literally any city in the US.
Software developer compensations are insanely high in the US, at least at these multinational corporations.
They can’t even be punished.
robots.txtis just a convention, not a regulation. It’s totally not enforceable.The only legal framework we have is copyright law. Those who oppose this behavior will have to demonstrate copyright violation, and that may be difficult to do since the law hasn’t caught up.
