Serious question because I don’t know about this sort of thing:
Apple’s investment in building its own in-house “Apple Silicon” is large. Can anyone definitely prove they haven’t been working on the sort of AI GPU stuff that NVidia has been?
about 15 years ago I started an aggregator to accumulate/sort/filter the best instruction of various topics, kinda like Reddit for learning. This is such a perfect example of the kind of thing I hoped would filter to the top. Thinking about trying to redo it. Is there a use for this sort of thing in today's world?
I was a contractor at a FAANG for a few years, and they handed me a job. In the few weeks of transition between the two (some paperwork, etc.) a job posting and req ID was created and posted on their jobs site. I freaked out for a bit, but everything worked out so I can only presume (in California) that was a requirement.
What amazed me was it said (maybe on LinkedIN?) how many poor souls actually took the time to apply to the position. It was in the hundreds. I can't help but feel bad knowing they never had a chance.
I don’t hate the Apple Watch, but I was pretty seriously disappointed at how it looked when it came out. Great! They made a watch look like my phone, cool
As a generally left leaning government trusting Silicon Valley tech bro, the California PFL nightmare has been so awful it has been enough to at least instill thoughts of moving to live off grid in Idaho and starting an anti government … group
Shameless plug-
Check out the Niles Canyon Railway (NCRy.org). It’s a volunteer organization that runs vintage trains (including steam engines) on the original connector route that was completed later in the year to finally connect the bay with Sacramento.
this used to be laughable to consider like 15 years ago, but there are guys on Endless-Sphere (ebike forum) that have solar on their bike that in some cases can generate enough power from the sun to keep the bike going. This would be a pretty simple calculation- I hope someone with more recent numbers could do it here
