Driving past the massive oil refineries in South LA county makes me shudder. This technology is so essential to how we live, and we don’t know how to build it anymore. The last time we built one was 1973. Valar Atomics will fix this, but time is short.

If tinygrad succeeds, the effects will ripple far beyond a Tensor library. Can ~15k lines replace a 15 million line stack? Is software three orders of magnitude too large?

It's not often that I disagree with The Economist, but this is one of those times. I suspect that having fewer children around will have a poisonous effect on all aspects of life, both social and personal .

“THE DEMO YOU HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR” - @johncoogan of @tbpn

I've just received a medical report from two doctors who have examined my blood tests, and upon reading their findings, I have decided to stop my hunger strike. They strongly advised me to end my fast given developing acidosis and “very low blood glucose” (even for somebody on a

AI researchers @ESYudkowsky and @So8res are giving a doomsday warning about building AI too fast in their new book, "If Anyone Builds it, Everyone Dies." “Humans have a long history of not wanting to sound alarmist ...   Someone at some point just has to say what's actually

🇯🇵 Japan has successfully completed tests of its railgun aboard the ship Asuka, confirming the ability to accurately hit targets at significant distances. During the firing trials from June to early July, projectiles reached speeds exceeding 2,500 m/s — far higher than

we're spending $1.2M dollars this fall to buy supercars, offices, and jewelry we've already spent $20k on watches @instinct_inc dm if you want to be an intern (serious inquiries only)

What we have done at Extropic with a modest amount of capital (~$20M burned) will, in terms of impact, dwarf the attempts of nation states spending hundreds of billions trying to obtain a breakthrough in silicon engineering for chip energy efficiency. And yet, people called me a

To measure the power of the early nuclear tests, an ultra high speed camera system was developed capable of 15m frames per second. Interestingly, it turned out the camera’s precise control circuit was the best way to trigger the explosive lens of subsequent bomb designs,

Another bad day for "AI can't do math". Math, Inc., a new company started by Christian Szegedy, has announced that its agent, Gauss, has autonomously completed Terry Tao and Alex Kontorovich's Strong Prime Number Theorem project in 3 weeks (human experts' progress stalled after

anti-civilization.

Remember that it is easy to post today. Tomorrow, remember to work to make good on your words from today. To honor the memory and sacrifice of Charlie. We must work to save our nation. “In all labor there is profit, But idle chatter leads only to poverty.” Proverbs 14:23
