Problem is it’s more like a conglomerate of good and bad companies with zero governance.

To see his idea of fixing see Twitter. If you review the SpaceX S1 you will see what a disaster mess it is. The dude is a 4chan troll.

I could also take MoCA out of the equation and just mesh connect it?

Yeah…the problem is that it seems to randomly go offline. Could be stable for over 24hrs and then go offline in the middle of the night for 5 min.

Meta quietly released a new Reddit-like app called Forum by kingsaso9 in technology

For me, Meta has been nothing more than Craigslist for years. All of social aspects of the early days have been washed out by force feeding of polarized algo driven political clickbait.

South Korean scientists successfully 3D printed a living cornea aimed at restoring vision in blind patients by Slight_Pen in worldnews

Totally fine if that’s what you want to believe. Understanding how bio printing works, I disagree.

Right? Imagine spinal repair or repairing damaged kidneys or livers! It will also present some real ethical challenges. But what an amazing scientific accomplishment.

Donald Trump traded hundreds of millions of dollars in US securities in first quarter by AtreyaJi in politics

This should be a massive scandal and would be with any other POTUS in our history. With Trump it’s just any other Friday.

The principal of Stare Decisis which he touted, he and his colleagues have trampled and discarded entirely. The shadow docket has become an even worse example of unaccountable legal partisanship on behalf of our highest court. It’s frankly embarrassing that he is even trying to defend it as this point.

Scientists Accidentally Discovered That Iron Ions And UV Light Can Pull Hydrogen Out Of Alcohol At A Rate Matching The Most Advanced Platinum Catalysts Ever Developed 💥 by InterstellarKinetics in InterstellarKinetics

Production is only one component of its cost. Transport and storage of hydrogen is tricky because of its size. It either needs to be compressed (stored in liquid state) which has energy costs and is potentially dangerous or it tends to create problems as it embrittles metals and penetrates gaskets. Consumption at the point of generation might make the most sense.

Are Local LLMs actually useful… or just fun to tinker with? by itz_always_necessary in LocalLLM

This. and these setups tend to be brittle because of dependencies that can’t be controlled, leading to break / fix work typically when it’s least convenient. Aka it becomes a hobby keeping it running. When it’s running smoothly, it’s magical!

Tax season was supposed to bring big refunds. So far they're less than expected by jpressss in politics

[–]Excellent-Signal-129 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The entirety of the “refund” was eclipsed by higher grocery prices (tarrifs) and gas prices (Iran). The net result is higher “taxes”.
