If they keep it running at near constant usage, you'd only need 80-120 million tokens an hour to hit 38$ of revenue (at off peak pricing, half as much for peak pricing).

Phones aren't disposable because of the lack of replacement batteries.

I keep my phones for 3-4 years, and the battery life while degraded isn't really an issue.

And that's with recharging it just about every night even if it's not dead.

Nuclear fills a base load role better than solar+battery though, imo.

A healthy power network will have a variety of generations sources available.

I don't see how we'll ever get to widespread local LLM.

The power efficiency alone is a strong enough pressure to use centralized model providers.

My 3090 running 24b or 32b models is fun, but I know I'm paying way more per token in electricity, on top of lower quality tokens.

It's fun to run them locally, but for anything actually useful it's cheaper to just pay API prices currently.

The drop in memory stocks seems counterintuitive to me.

The demand for memory isn't going to go down, we'll just be able to do more with the same amount of memory.

Just about everyone on the left has been saying these tariffs were illegal since day one.

It's not insider trading that they acted on that consensus.

I don't buy that it's because of the monopoly. TSMC has been starting a fab for close to 5 years.

It doesn't matter how many companies are in this market, it takes a real amount of time to add capacity.

>Instead, we should make it illegal to discriminate based on criminal conviction history

Absolutely not. I'm not saying every crime should disqualify you from every job but convictions are really a government officialized account of your behavior. Knowing a person has trouble controlling their impulses leading to aggrevated assault or something very much tells you they won't be good for certain roles. As a business you are liable for what your employees do it's in both your interests and your customers interests not to create dangerous situations.

But realistically, I just had 2 flights last month, checking what model of aircraft I was on didn't even cross my mind. I survived both flights btw.

Anything the government does should be viewed with the lens of "do I want somebody who hates me to have this power".

It's hard to put into words, but you're eroding the social contract through your actions. People with conditions get accused of faking it all the time, and it sounds like you're actually faking it.

Cars are the most time efficient though, assuming you can find parking relatively quick.

The framing of 100% of people getting a prescription as being bad seems weird to me. We live in the age of AI we don't need a doctor to tell us the side effects of medication anymore, people should be free to buy for themselves whatever they want to take.

Obviously involving insurance and (other people's money) makes a difference, but for direct to consumer, I don't think doctors should be gatekeepers any more.

Hyundai is partnering with Boston Dynamics to deploy 30k robots a year.

Amazon is looking to replace 600k employees over the next decade.

Why do you believe demand for humanoids isn't high?
