Printed Circuit Boards, as the name suggests, are already printed, with the extra step of submerging in a chemical solution.

I don’t see the advantage of this approach. You end up with a worse and less reliable circuit just to avoid the single chemical step.


Cooling things in space is insanely difficult, as there’s no conduction or convection.

Cooling is one of the main challenges in designing data centers.


‘Bytes’ is tokenization.

There’s no reason to assume it’s the best solution. It might be the case that a better tokenization scheme is needed for math, reasoning, video, etc models.


Yeah great way to become dependent on tech stacks backdoored by different big tech companies from another country, or the same ones who move to different countries.

This is a European initiative, we are already backdoored by other companies from other countries. I'd rather work with a company I can take to court/that is governed by policies I can vote for or against.

Yes, the European Union, who so earnestly considered writing a law that forces tech companies to build in backdoors to E2EE because they think only they could get in.

You want the European Parliament and every European country to have direct access to everything you type and say? Because that’s where this ends.

Funny because now it doesn't. It routinely fails to surface emails that exist.


This is why Uber was aggressively fighting for getting self driving tech.


It’s the same software stack.


It gets even more jarring that H100 is about three years old now.


No, good algorithms for NP hard problems can be more than just heuristics.

Modern SAT solvers are a good example of this. CDCL is elegant.


A SAT solver without any preprocessing won't be competitive with SoTA SAT solver.

CDCL is core to the problem, but it is not sufficient. You even have SAT solvers like CryptoMiniSAT that try to detect clauses that encode xor gates so they can use Gaussian Elimination.

This is also true of ILP solvers. Simplex + Branch & Cut is elegant. But that's not how you get to the top.


Why though?

There's no shortage of software engineers.

Something like this will fuel a over hiring boom just before AI gets good enough.
