People in the US are gonna see news like this and their first thought somehow still isn't "how do I expedite emigrating"
People are going to go "haha, what a clown show" and not realize the clown show they are laughing at... is a tent burning down... and they're in that tent right now
This is getting more and more standard.
However, Remote Desktop work has some flaws. Especially for streaming audio and video that you need to be very high quality.
If the streaming application for remote access is able to stream the audio and video being edited at high fidelity, then that;s a pretty big deal. I havent tried Jump Desktop yet, but if it really can do that then thats huge props.
Setting that aside, you do still need a machine with the specs to stream the audio and video at as close to lossless quality as you can, so something as shitty as a chromebook probably wouldnt actually be good enough, it's CPU and NAT might not quite be up to the job to stream 4k resolution video lossless.
But you also dont need a super powerful laptop either. Probably something in the ~$800 range would be sufficient, which is still magnitudes cheaper than the rig you'd need to edit the data locally of course.
So I think it's still awesome if it really does work, I am hugely in favor of VPNing into a centralized server for performing editing work, allowing editors to access files lightning fast (because instead of access them over network, the drives are right there directly connect to your server, so you're effectively doing work on a machine with potentially petabytes of storage capacity!)
Yep. It's unethical but nonetheless makes the coin actually have tangible holdings, because it's actually impacting the real world.
That's probably a better way to put it yeah.
And as fucked as it is, it is a fact that this does hold value and is backed by it.
It's just a pretty shit thing to be backed by ethically.
But nonetheless, there is value in bitcoin, it's just best we don't encourage further investment in such a thing.
Bitcoin is backed by the price of coal.
For all intents and purposes, bitcoin is effectively minted coal.
So who is doing the deporting? Why aren't we constantly naming names of who is doing the deporting here?
Which agency? What group? Who?
If we keep the offenders who are violating orders anonymous, then they can easier get away with shit.
If you just wrote "U.S. immigration authorities" you are a bad journalist. Get very fucking specific please.
Which authorities, of what agency, in what city
I primarily use GPT style tools like ChatGPT and whatnot.
The key is, rather than asking it to generate code, specify that you dont want code and instead want it to help you work through the solution. Tell it to ask you meaningful questions about your problem and effectively act as a rubber duck
Then, after you've chosen a solution with it, ask it to generate code based on all the above convo.
This will typically produce way higher quality results and helps avoid potential X/Y problems.
Humans are “trained” with maybe ten thousand “tokens” per day
Uhhh... you may wanna rerun those numbers.
It's waaaaaaaay more than that lol.
and take only a couple dozen watts for even the most complex thinking
Mate's literally got smoke coming out if his ears lol.
A single Wh is 860 calories...
I think you either have no idea wtf you are talking about, or your just made up a bunch of extremely wrong numbers to try and look smart.
Humans will encounter hundreds of thousands of tokens per day, ramping up to millions in school.
An human, by my estimate, has burned about 13,000 Wh by the time they reach adulthood. Maybe more depending in activity levels.
While yes, an AI costs substantially more Wh, it also is done in weeks so it's obviously going to be way less energy efficient due to the exponential laws of resistance. If we grew a functional human in like 2 months it'd prolly require way WAY more than 13,000 Wh during the process for similiar reasons.
Once trained, a single model can be duplicated infinitely. So it'd be more fair to compare how much millions of people cost to raise, compared to a single model to be trained. Because once trained, you can now make millions of copies of it...
Operating costs are continuing to go down and down and down. Diffusion based text generation just made another huge leap forward, reporting around a twenty times efficiency increase over traditional gpt style LLMs. Improvements like this are coming out every month.
For sure, much like how a cab driver has to know how to drive a cab.
AI is absolutely a "garbage in, garbage out" tool. Just having it doesn't automatically make you good at your job.
The difference in someone who can weild it well vs someone who has no idea what they are doing is palpable.
Good, fire 2 devs out of 3.
Companies that do this will fail.
Successful companies respond to this by hiring more developers.
Consider the taxi cab driver:
With the invention if the automobile, cab drivers could do their job way faster and way cheaper.
Did companies fire drivers in response? God no. They hired more
Why?
Because they became more affordable, less wealthy clients could now afford their services which means demand went way way up
If you can do your work for half the cost, usually demand goes up by way more than x2 because as you go down in wealth levels of target demographics, your pool of clients exponentially grows
If I go from "it costs me 100k to make you a website" to "it costs me 50k to make you a website" my pool of possible clients more than doubles
Which means... you need to hire more devs asap to start matching this newfound level of demand
If you fire devs when your demand is about to skyrocket, you fucked up bad lol
I'm sorry they put tarrifs on uninhabited islands lol
