I read four words then was hit with this.

You’ve just hit the article limit with your free Sifted account.

Ok, ok. If you insist. I won’t read your article.

Why would you use this instead of Matrix FFS? Closed source and centralized.

I’d argue that FPTP is the real barrier. It makes it a FACT that we can only have two parties.

Hot take: Might be wise to adopt the security by obscurity model and go with an OS that is hardened (ideally, a formally verified microkernel like sel4) or runs in a custom VM/container with almost zero attack surface area.

Anduril is scary. They seem able to harness the most elegant technologies that idiot government redneck contractors tended to avoid in years past. I’ve seen them in Haskell and Nix forums offering jobs to morally bankrupt autists FAR too often. Fuck you, Anduril.

FUCK YOU!!!

Tell me you’re 15 years old without specifically telling me you’re 15 years old….

Thanks for the corrections.

Ahh. Thanks for this insight.

It certainly does.

Until last week, you absolutely NEEDED an NVidia GPU equipped with CUDA to run all AI models.

Today, that is simply not true. (watch the video at the end of this comment)

I watched this video and my initial reaction to this news was validated and then some: this video made me even more bearish on NVDA.

Edit: corrected and redacted.

True. Thats why I tend to make small plays instead of being an absolute degenerate gambler.

The reason for the correction is that the “smart money” that breathlessly invested billions on the assumption that CUDA is absolutely required for a good AI model is suddenly looking very incorrect.

I had been predicting that AMD would make inroads with their OpenCL but this news is even better. Reportedly, DeepSeek doesn’t even necessarily require the use of either OpenCL or CUDA.

Even if they get banned, any startup could replicate their work if it is truly open source. The best thing about their solution is that it breaks the CUDA monopoly that NVDA has enjoyed. Buy your puts when NVDA bounces because that stock is GOING DOWN. There’s no world where a company that makes GPU’s is worth more than both Apple and Microsoft. It’s inevitable.

Good point. Cant believe that printing footage wasn’t sped up. INSANE speed. :)

Unless your lights are hard-wired or connecting to a locked down guest WiFi network, you are exposing your WiFi credentials to potential attackers.

The microcontrollers that control Christmas lights are riddled with backdoors and holes.

That’s probably the real reason that this piece of shit NSA spook wants everyone to have smart Christmas lights.

“Trust me bro” style hand-rolled encryption.

It is, actually.

Trolling seems pretty routine for you.

No problem. Thanks for being intellectually honest! I’ll file down the claws in my previous reply. :)
