Oh, that’s so much worse than Reddit, since there are no power hungry mods there /s

It is, but it does have competition
- Comment on Why doesn't Nvidia have more competition? 6 days ago:
It’s literally the most surface level take. Does not even mention what CUDA is or AMD’s efforts to run it
www.xda-developers.com/nvidia-cuda-amd-zluda/
But it is no longer funded by AMD or Intel
AMD GPUs are still supported by frameworks like PyTorch
rocm.docs.amd.com/…/pytorch-install.html
While Nvidia might be the fastest, they are not always the cheapest option, especially if you rent it in the cloud. When I last checked, it was cheaper to rent AMD GPUs

No, this is about AI

What a shit article. Doesn’t explain the software situation. While CUDA is the most popular, a lot of frameworks do support AMD chips.

Also several times the minimum wage. The minimum wage jobs are the do nothing jobs like door man.
The fact is, the difference is in concentration. You have millions of workers in Shenzhen all in the same area doing similar jobs. It makes it easy to ask one factory to manufacture a thing and the one next door to assemble it.

Chinese wages are not actually that low. In Beijing it’s ¥26.4 which is $3.66
US federal minimum wage is $7.25

Not in a hand wavy way from the last post. I understand that Python is dynamically typed, which would have nothing to do with the topic
- Comment on Anthropic's Claude 4 could "blackmail" you in extreme situations 1 week ago:
That makes more sense
- Comment on Anthropic's Claude 4 could "blackmail" you in extreme situations 2 weeks ago:
You just posted random words like dynamic without explanation

Some notes I want to look at later I do write with pen and paper. For jotting things down I just have a digital tablet you can scribble or draw on

Let me introduce you to discord. You get a notification for a message but there’s no way to find it. You keep clicking the notification and it won’t actually scroll up to the message to let you read it

Intel thought the iPhone market was going to be too small so they didn’t agree to manufacture their CPUs

You have to charge it separately, it’s not quite as convenient

To stream the file from the computer that has it to the tablet that has VLC and low storage

I don’t watch on a smart tv, I watch on VLC.
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 4 weeks ago:
I don’t NEED to transcode, it plays in VLC just fine
- Comment on That's all folks, Plex is starting to charge for sharing 5 weeks ago:
It wanted me to organize my files and then it started to transcode them when I streamed. Not optimal for my use case

- Comment on Airbnb will now show users the total cost of their stay right away 1 month ago:
This is not a good thing, zoning laws often lead to higher rents because they constrain construction. They also lead to having to drive everywhere because your house is too far from anything that’s not another house
- Comment on Airbnb will now show users the total cost of their stay right away 1 month ago:
Yeah, that’s why we should have mixed use zoning. I stayed in a hotel in a residential area in Seoul, it was great. There’s convenience stores everywhere and little restaurants and cafes next to residential houses
- Comment on Airbnb will now show users the total cost of their stay right away 1 month ago:
It means there’s not enough construction. If apartments were used as hotels, then more construction would offset increase in prices

They tried to not refund my whole flight so I talked to customer support which refused so I charged back with my credit card and they reversed the original refund and gave me the whole refund
