- Comment on Trump says he plans to put a 100% tariff on computer chips, likely pushing up cost of electronics 2 weeks ago:
I was looking at the stock performance of Semiconductors today and they’re pretty much all green except for Intel. Why? Because they’ve all announced plans to invest in the US (even though they probably won’t ever make good on their commitments). That buys them an exception to the tariffs. So it’s pretty much a 100% tariff on no major player. Intel was down because Tom Cotton and now Trump are attacking their new CEO Lip Bu Tan who has a long successful track record in the industry but has Chinese investments which they think somehow implicates him or creates a national security risk even though TSMC is ahead of Intel in fab capability. Anyway the point is this is just rhetorical grand standing with no serious impact.

Exactly this. LLMs are already bad at answering questions about very old technology, and I assume they are equally bad at answering questions about very new technology. Also bad at answering questions that have never been asked. We’re doomed.

- Comment on Why can't we go back to small phones? 5 months ago:
I’m using a Pixel 5. Replaced the screen and battery recently because there’s no modern option for me. My thumb will be able to reach all corners of the screen in one hand operation or I’m just not buying it. I’d probably be better off without a phone anyway.
