IMHO the front of the space shuttle should have had the same features of an Apollo capsule. As in able to separate in an emergency and do a water landing with parachutes.

A buddy of mine is the son of a United Airlines mechanic who was fairly high up in the organization. When his dad passed United gave him a stack of blank wax tickets. His son could write the destination on them and fly for free. Near the end of the stack they were largely ornamental as he could just tell them where he wanted to go and they would print a proper ticket. But still, it was a rather classy way to honor his father.

My comment wasn't about the tool, it was how people are treating the new tool. Much as they would when they learn other new tools. They tend to have a preference and apply it where they maybe shouldn't. Do people really need to ask AI everything like simple math problems or what goes best with this dress? Is that really a good use for early generation, water hungry, huge datacenter AI?

Woodworkers often will have a preference for their favorite tool. Once they become comfortable with that tool they will sometimes prefer to use it for things it wasn't designed. For me it was the band saw. When I needed to split a board, bandsaw. When I needed to cut a curve, bandsaw. Cut a horse figure? bandsaw!

I once saw a woodworking television show that seemed to do everything on the table saw. Rip, make frames for paintings, everything. It seemed the next step of every design was accomplished "over at the table saw".

Right now it seems that's what people are doing with AI. Need a bandsaw? use AI. Need a table saw? Use AI. Need to think of a solution of any kind, better consult AI.

Right before this trend I recall kids wanting to check YouTube first before doing anything. Now they ask AI.

There's an app for that, there's a website for that, there's a magazine for that, there's a phone number you can call, and so on and so on.

As with everything, I say this: do your own thinking and proceed with caution.

This too shall pass.

Not if my firewall blocks it from accessing the outside world. (But allows HomeAssistant to control it)

Brominated flame retardant?

You need some filler for the space at the bottom. Something like ads from the 1800's for quack medical devices or Radium Therapy. Maybe something wildly misogynistic advertising laudanum.

The phrase "sufficient test suite" is doing a LOT of work here. You would need to know what the data from every sensor is supposed to be along with how every piece of the machine is supposed to perform. AI isn't going to be able to iterate into those parameters over night.

This is way over simplifying here but I always understood it as: our eyes can see red with very little power needed. But our eyes can differentiate more detail with green.

Speaking mostly from personal experience here, if a kid gets a suped-up liver from their dad's smoking habits, cool. But how many kids fathers stopped smoking when the kid was born? My point, the father's smoking habits may have passed down a strong liver but his continued use damaged the child's lungs and possibly more.

These mechanisms of epigenetic inheritance or whatever need much more study. It is far too early to draw any conclusions other than we need to keep researching.

Better yet, instead of positioning it as an institutional-style research. You should frame it as an information hub for bovine castration techniques.

"The core-and most-critical component-was left-out." Jesus-h-cluster-fucking-catastra-christ. If one of these data centers ever catches fire I will show up and make smores.

How deep down the rabbit hole did you go with hardware optimization?

In an ideal world, would it be better to compile this on a processor more RISC-y?

Viewing the page with Safari 26.1 the questions stopped showing up after the second challenge. I was left with only Learn and View Solutions, which was not very fun since both showed a form of the answer.

TL;DR: The page stopped loading properly.
