if they can actually do it, they're in big trouble because no one is going to let them hoard truly novel discoveries, eg: new physics, curing cancer.

their comp structure is like all other companies, yearly grants with some band of pay with performance mixed in. some stacking, idk the specifics but recruiters will explain it.

it's bad if you're an investor I guess.

the technology isn't the company yeah? maybe AI will take over the world but it's unlikely to be a single firm

apple is pretty well set up for this because they do all their hardware in house. if they wanted to, they could pivot in this direction. Ternus is also a hardware guy.

This is really interesting because there's an active debate around who Tudhaliya II actually is and how the records overlap with Tudhaliya I. hopefully this will shed more light on early early new Hittite kingdom chronology.

ends up a good % of the US population is in favor of fascism. Same reason we elected orange mango man, same reason ICE is running around shooting people and imprisoning America citizens.

glad we laid off so many government workers and cdc staff, and politicized their work. very cool and certainly making things great.

it's not complex. there's hundreds of billions of investor dollars counting on vendor lock in and walled gardens

yeah I use sol constantly and have done maybe $15 of spend in the past week. it's solid and cheaper. this is at least 4-5 investigations, prs, whatever per day.

This is literally the plan, open weight models are something like 60% of token spend, and it will get worse. many companies now have model gateways where you can slot in cheaper models via cli for cheaper. we've been using glm 5.x and it's pretty close to SOTA frontier models.

it's also why there have been so many calls for regulation and slowdowns.

this is why people have been suggesting an AI bubble, outside of the frontier model labs

sure but the most important piece, the ICS, is still frozen and will remain blocked indefinitely.

what you have is just a provisionally agreed upon free trade agreement. It's a long way from its original goal. Also if a single member country doesn't ratify, it's pulling the plug on ceta. It's in a legal grey zone and will probably remain in that state forever, due to ICS being so controversial to EU member states.

CETA isn't in a good place right now and it's yet another sign that EU doesn't want as deep economic integration as Canada leaders are selling. Canadian leadership is pushing hard and it makes sense, good for the common Canadian, but the EU is more skeptical and doesn't see the same value add.

this is also the conclusion that the FT article came to, Canada isn't as lucrative of a trade partner as they are selling to the Canadian people.
