- Comment on Your future AI Assistant still needs to earn your trust. 4 days ago:
I’ve snagged a couple deals on mini-computers with CPUs that have NN-optimized tiles; I’m planning on playing around and building out some self-hosted voice assistant stuff, amongst other things.
- Comment on Your future AI Assistant still needs to earn your trust. 4 days ago:
lol no it doesn’t, because the only one I’ll ever trust is the one I fully host and control myself.

Wheeeeeeeeee
- Comment on A 32-bit RISC-V processor made using molybdenum disulfide instead of silicon 1 week ago:
You clearly haven’t read the article. If you do, it’s quite obvious that this is a prototype implementation - essentially a proof-of-concept.
- Comment on FTC Removes Posts Critical of Amazon, Microsoft, and AI Companies 3 weeks ago:

- Comment on TSMC US investment: Fear and resignation after ‘world’s most powerful company’ pays Trump $100 billion. 4 weeks ago:

I’m frankly mystified by the fact that Taiwan appears to be letting the core of their strategic defense policy vis a vis the CCP get pretty fundamentally undermined
- Comment on Trump is giving Russian cyber ops a free pass – and putting western democracy on the line. 5 weeks ago:
Keep this is mind as you see more and more pro-Russian and -CCP comments in the coming months and years.
- Comment on SpaceX Starship blows up twice in a row. 5 weeks ago:
Meta and Google throw money at people as compensation for making them build unethical, immoral stuff.
SpaceX has traditionally paid far less, relying on “we’re building fucking reusable rockets”, which in normal circumstances, to a lot of engineers, is pretty rad, and kind of its own selling point.
- Comment on SpaceX Starship blows up twice in a row. 5 weeks ago:
The topic of conversation is how tons of people don’t want to be associated with anything eel-on-musk is doing anymore after he more or less took the mask off, did his “weird hand motion (twice in a row, on national television, one of which was in the direction of orangeboi)”, and then started (and is continuing) to take a chainsaw to silly little government agencies like the CDC, NOAA, CFPB, Social Security Administration, and so on.
Most smart people don’t like dumb and evil people. I would not at all be shocked to learn SpaceX is facing some serious brain drain.
- Comment on UK quietly scrubs encryption advice from government websites 5 weeks ago:
Honestly, in the context of an emboldened China and Russia in the realms of cyberwarfare:
- Comment on Software engineering job openings hit five-year low? 1 month ago:
I mean, if you have the ability to wait out the bubble, you should do so. This genAI ouroboros is going to implode sooner or later. Probably sooner because of all the cascade effects of the protectionist idiocy our government is getting into.
- Comment on Is Musk trying to prove haters wrong with X revaluation? 1 month ago:
Lmao it’s gonna flop so hard. That, or someone will use it asan opportunity to make friends with Elon to the tune of a few dozen billion dollars (so, Saudi or Russian most likely)

- Comment on As DeepSeek Rises, Russia Falls Behind On AI. 2 months ago:
Tbh Russia is falling behind on regular I, considering all the brain drain they’re dealing with due to the war and conscription and sanctions and all.
- Comment on Boeing Has Lost a Staggering Amount of Money on Its Starliner Catastrophe 2 months ago:
Yes. But to be fair, the Starliner hasn’t (yet) killed anyone.
- Comment on Google will now automatically revoke permissions from harmful Android apps 2 months ago:
So, what’s the definition of “harmful”, and how likely is that to change arbitrarily in the context of the current government?
- Comment on Trump to get $25 million in settlement with Meta 2 months ago:
Yep, just a shakedown, nothing to see here 🫠
- Comment on Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is already using DeepSeek instead of OpenAI at his startup, Gloo 2 months ago:
Gelsinger is infamous in the industry due to his very recent and catastrophic bout of poor management of one of the pillars of American technology. I’m saying that, broadly, I find it comical that any competent engineer would consent to work for him, specifically due to his tenure at Intel. I’m saying I wouldn’t personally work for him or an organization that picked him for leadership, full stop, regardless of which LLM models or frameworks he elects his company to use, or any other technology for that matter.
- Comment on Trump’s reported plans to save TikTok may violate SCOTUS-backed law 2 months ago:
It’s cute how journalists are continuing to pretend that laws are going to be followed and won’t be enforced subjectively, haphazardly, and with a blatant double standard going forward
- Comment on Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is already using DeepSeek instead of OpenAI at his startup, Gloo 2 months ago:
Because the CEO I’m talking about is Pat Gelsinger
- Comment on Former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger is already using DeepSeek instead of OpenAI at his startup, Gloo 2 months ago:
Lmao imagine working at a startup run by the guy who was driving when Intel drove off a cliff
