One has a source, the other is a figure of speech without a source.

Its a physics paper and not a news paper article.

I do assume that the notion is used and also implies the 'resolution'/'precision' of that number.

Whats your setup/workflow then?

Any ide integration?

Comparing Zoom and Nvidia is just not valid at all.

Was the crazy revaluation of Nvidia wild? Yes.

Will others start taking contracts away with their fast inferencing custom solutions? yes of course but im sure everyone is aware of it.

What is very unclear is, how strong Nvidia is with their robot platform.

I didn't. Someone else did.

I clarified the effort and that we all should do it because we are probably the best people to do so.

A few years back i saw a documentary about kids in a third world country were it is normal to use plastic bags for drinking soda.

These kids couldn't understand that the plastic garbage in their own nature is not part of nature.

Nonetheless, depending on what rules you mean, there are a lot of people who show that logic or 'truth' is not the same for everyone.

People believing in a god, ghosts, conspiricy theories, flat earth etc.

I'm more curious if the 'self' can only be trained if you have a clear line of control. We learn what the self is because there is a part which we can control and than there is a part which we can't control.

I'm arguing that this is to simple of an explanation.

The claude paper showed, that it has some internal model when answering in different languages.

The process of learning can have effects in it, which is more than statistics. IF the training itself optimizes itself by having a internal model representation, than its no longer just statistics.

It also sounds like that humans are the origin of intelligence, but if humans do the same thing as LLM, and the only difference is, that we do not train LLMs from scratch (letting them discover the world, letting them inventing languages etc. but priming them with our world), than our intelligence was emergent and the LLMs one by proxy.

A EC2 (vm) on aws with a little bit of CPU, Memory and enough storage attached, costs 1k per month which is something like $1.5 per Hour.

Its not necessarily about storing it longerm, its about 'looking into it'.

I don't get the Airgap thing though at all. There is a very minimal chance that this contains a zero day. The idea of a zero day is, that you can attack systems and you sell it to people who have high profile targets or systems.

Some random person downloading leaked data, everyone can download, is not a real target for a zero day.

And a zero day which breaks random unpacking tools and your vm/system, would be worth even more.

I find it a lot worse that Gemini on Google Workspace is allowed to use your data when you don't pay for it but not when you pay for it.

This is such a hard troublesome thing, i disabled the integration for it asap

Dude... i'm a software engineere in germany.

I create new accounts because i spend too much time on hn...

I suggest to download stuff because i assume people on HN are well equiped to check it out.

Click yourself some cheap vm in the cloud, download it, check it out. Cost involved? $10

Do you expect journalists with less it knowledge to do this? I mean yeah they can and should but people on hn should do too

This goes for me in direction of civil service tbh. and if someone should do something and support, this is the thing we should do.

If people on hn, knowing how things work, are skiddisch, what normal people will do? even less.

Cloud VM. Costs you a dollar per hour and has fast download speed.

We are experts on HN. If we don't do it, others with less knowledge might or not might.

And no, a archive file doesn't just include a zero day. A zero day is very valuable.

So always wait for others to do something?

Don't just download it on your windows home pc with your private data of course.

Who if not people / experts reading on hn?

Click yourself any server anywhere, download it, analyse it, share your findings.
