@curiousbeing13 Yeah the disdain for paying people according to their contribution (actually less of course) is clear
English
@edandersen “that 500K engineer” pretty demeaning way to say
English
Software engineers will not be trusted to spend 50% of their salary on variable opex costs with no guarantee of productivity, unless they are executive level. this is a pipe dream to sell GPUs
TFTC@TFTC21
Jensen Huang: "If that $500,000 engineer did not consume at least $250,000 worth of tokens, I am going to be deeply alarmed. This is no different than a chip designer who says 'I'm just going to use paper and pencil. I don't think I'm going to need any CAD tools.'"

@EERandomness Then they aren’t senior any more as they are the bottom of the ladder
English
@edandersen Why not? It is no different than senior developers managing junior developers. The AI just replaces the junior devs.

@moiety_actual @chucker They used to charge for fusion, now it’s free it’s basically giving up
English
@edandersen @chucker Counterpoint: FFmpeg is free. It contains handwritten assembly written by wizards. It is, famously, not garbage, despite costing nothing!
English
So the Macbook Pro M5 Pro running Windows on ARM in a Parallels virtual machine (32GB / 8 Cores) is FASTER than a Surface Pro 11 Snapdragon X (12 cores) in single core and just as fast multicore. Macbook Pro is basically the best Windows ARM machine available, AND in a VM
English
@edandersen This is all a scam at this point, there is no value case and even Goldman said there is zero impact.
English
@edandersen I am an L7 and the token cost of the agents I have written for the org is probably close to $ 100k/year. That is barely even an employee.
English
@MightyMogomra Why do something in 2 minutes yourself when you could watch an agent click around for 30 minutes and maybe get it wrong
English
@edandersen I dunno if I could make productive use of all that compute
I get 99% of the benefit from just having grok shit out boilerplate code for me that I copy and paste over manually. All these agent workflows seem to just be a way to imitate productivity while surfing the web
English
@edandersen I used to like Jensen a lot, now every time I hear him its like hearing a drunk salesman
English
@chucker @edandersen I wonder if the scores are any better on VMware (by Broadcom™️) Fusion
English
@OpenInternetFan I agree the pricing is outrageous. If you are okay with worse graphics support then VMware fusion is free
English
@edandersen If you can buy Parallels professional version with more than 4 or 8 GB RAM for a fee rather than a subscription then it might be useful. But I don’t want to pay a yearly fee to run a Windows laptop.

The ***entire point*** of the Online Safety Act was to engineer a situation where Ofcom goes to court to get UK ISPs and Cloudflare to block 4chan entirely from the UK. This is why it exists, they should have called it the 4chan Block Law. And it’s working.
The Lunduke Journal@LundukeJournal
The United Kingdom has demanded that 4chan pay a £520,000 fine for failure to comply with UK age verification laws. However, since 4chan is based in the USA, the UK has no jurisdiction to fine Americans in America. “As has been explained to your agency, ad nauseam, the United Kingdom lost the American Revolutionary War. We are not in the mood to discuss the matter further, and have not been in the mood for 250 years.” The letter to the UK’s Ofcom ended by suggesting that “maybe, you could just stop sending Americans stupid letters and acknowledge the sovereignty of the United States.” 4chan’s attorney, @prestonjbyrne also included a picture of a giant hamster dressed as Godzilla.

This is incredibly unrealistic because he didn’t have to queue for 30 minutes with a shopping cart for his cheap hotdog
Trung Phan@TrungTPhan
Costco CEO Ron Vachris did the “CEO eats his own product” challenge by destroying a hot dog (and confirms the Costco hot dog combo is staying at $1.50 forever). Legend.
English
@IanjosephK A comparison with a chip that isn’t out yet? What’s the most “powerful” windows on arm chip available in a laptop today if it’s not the snapdragon x?
English
@edandersen Better comparison would be with the X2 elite coming later in the year?
English
@chucker The SSD is twice as fast as the M4 Pro version.. it’s very fast
English
@edandersen As someone who’s getting basically that config soon, I would caution with real-world performance in a VM. Not sure what’s to blame, but I/O(?) seems to drag down a Windows on macOS via Parallels setup a fair bit.
English
Yes but most of the time there is no payoff and you know it
The laziness is you preventing yourself from wasting energy for nothing

she literally explained why some people never feel lazy and how to copy them (in 2 mins)
