True but dopamine cycling is correlated with ADHD.

Brilliant. Mr. Shirriff, please do the Antikythera next.

Both remind some of those built in the "3-body problem".

My pet peeve is that even at Antikythera times they could have, if they had knowledge, built electronic devices - copper wire needle contact with crystalized molten sand gives you a diode junction, add a wire - transistor, and leather, brine, copper disks - electricity.

There was a guy on youtube who used a kiln to smelt copper ore and zinc ore, made wire coils and a vinegar battery, and demonstrated a telegraph made with bronze age resources.

I've partially heard of Antikythera. What do experts think it is?

I wonder what Google will do about TVCs now. TLMs usually also had a squad of TVCs.

What is TVC?

TVCs got nerfed so hard

The military places a lot of emphasis on this as a training principle. Practice over and over.

Seeing a proliferation of YouTube content presenting AI how-to’s and tutorials but are nothing more than teasers to join this school. I wish the algorithm is able to separate the genuine teachers from this type.

Shakedown list: Nvidia 15% of revenue AMD 15% of revenue Intel 10% of capital

Who else is next?

Just to add:

what about the part where a single person is dictating taxes on American companies? That does not seem to phase that many people in the tech space...

And what leverage did the administration illegally (without Congressional authorization) apply to get this deal?

At least when the Bush admin did the first part of the financial bailout in 2008, they had Congressional authorization (a bill was passed).

A deal for 15 percent of revenues of specific AMD and NVidia part sales in China != 15 percent of all their revenues, not even close.

Demanding 15% of H20, causing China to retaliate and ban it, causing Nvidia to halt production.

In terms of net effect, it’s atrocious regardless.

Rare earth miner MP Materials back on July 10. Next feels like TikTok or Fox News.

With time military companies need to pay their allegiance money so that they can break sanctions and oh national security. Some will approve because of the same reasons as Nvidia deal, who leaves that money on the table?

I'm not mad about a corporate tax on semiconductors sold to an adversary and agree that a tax is better than a ban on those sales.

Google’s free Gemini CLI might be catching up to the $200/month Claude Code.

You hit the limits on this like immediately (it’s 1000 requests which each tool call is a request and even then I’m convinced pro isn’t 1000).

Also data retention Gemini has which you have to download a vs code extension to turn off for the CLI.

It isn’t an enterprise product it’s a way to get data for tool calling for training as far as I see it (as it currently stands).

AWS Kiro came out with a bang and now it’s a waitlisted whimper.

Apple’s AI opportunity is in AirPods if they can be the one to deliver perfect full-duplex or half-duplex voice communication choices with an LLM.

It’s a shame not many have experienced where two such apps exist. Welcome to the wonderful convenience called Alipay and WeChat.
