The two api issue basically means async is not backwards compatible. You can't just squeeze some async into an existing code base, You'd need new functions, libraries etc. You'd basically need to rewrite the entire codebase in async to see an ounce of perf improvements.

because its a regression. WFH is better for a lot of folks. It saves time and money. Being forced back to office is like taking a pay cut as well as wastes 2 hours each day.

When you have a hammer everything starts to look like a nail. We have LLMs, now we need to find a use for it in a way that people are willing to pay money for.

40 a week on unemployment for low wage in CA
Comment · 2 years ago
Low wage jobs only net you $40 a week. Thats $160 a month. Even if you pay no income tax, try living on $160 a month in any where America. Thats barely enough to pay for groceries for a single person for a month.

No one is quitting their job to just be on unemployment. Unemployment benefit is funded by unemployment tax on both corporations and individuals. The unemployment benefit for CA is $40 to $450 per week. (You still have to pay income tax on that) Its much lower in conservative states. Its enough to smooth things out but not enough to live off of, you are still going to be digging into savings. Additionally you have to provide proof that you are looking for jobs ever week. Its not like I can take a holiday in europe and still collect.

Should get unemployment if you dont have a job and are actively looking for one.

The winner is just nvidia, I see this like the battle of gas vs electric cars. Nvidia is basically making the wheels. whichever company wins, you'd still need wheels.

as funny as this is, this would be concerning if/when they make textbooks with AI graphics

Meta is desperate to get devs to develop apps on their platform. It is the only way to get more interest in VR. Devs dont want to be on it because there are no customers, consumers don't want it because there's no apps. They've been trying to market it hard but nothing has worked. They tried to brand it as a fitness device, a work device, and a game device, but the consumers are not biting.

wow it looks horrible. did their "AI" got the eclipse location wrong? April 8th was over NA but the AI said that the ideal location was in Australia?

The interaction is awful. you have to touch it to operate it via voice commands? that means you cant use it in public. There's also a notification light? how is someone wearing it on their chest supposed to see that? I dont think this is a scam for the consumer, because no one in their right minds is going to watch this and want one. They are just cashing in on the AI crazy happening right now.
