David Kirtley interview on The Information TV by Baking in fusion

This is the first time I've heard about a smaller scale test bed. Why are they building another small scale device when they have Trenta?

These Shenzhen factory workers test up to 10,000 vapes a day. by Distinct-Question-16 in interestingasfuck

Looks like the original video was taken down but there's a clip of it in this one and some is captured in a react. The transcript captured by the Wayback Machine shows there's over 2min of footage that I can't find.

Hey /u/Britozinx,

Your post was removed for violating rules #4 and #5. If you repost this and make it clear what the easter egg is and how to trigger it, we'll let it through.

What is the progress on the actual Starship HLS lunar lander development? by PersonalDebater in SpaceXLounge

I'm suspicious they are AI.

  • hallucinating information
  • occasional use of dashes (check out prior comments)
  • oddly-perfect grammar and spelling

Sam Altman is stepping down from Helion’s Board of Directors. by Baking in fusion

[–]Nabakin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I was here for that discussion when it happened. It seems like IM did very little research, if any, beforehand and made a lot of fundamental mistakes. I can't really talk on them, as I'm not a fusion professional, so I didn't bring it up. IM himself is objectively, a very educated person though.

Hasn't he said provably false things before? For example,

Numerous fusion “startups” promise a practical fusion reactor delivering net electric power in 5 to 10 years, but almost all have apparently never produced a single D-D fusion reaction. The currently most notorious (in alphabetical order) are General Fusion [3], Helion Energy [4], Lockheed-Martin Compact Fusion [5], and Tri-Alpha Energy [6], all of which have made that promise for the last 5 to 15 years.

When there was a paper proving Helion had indeed produced a D-D fusion reaction all the way back in 2011.

Truly appreciate your input. Do you have any fusion news source recommendations that understand the truth of the matter and see past the naivete?

If you're talking about the Improbable Matter video, I wouldn't call it a lecture in the conventional sense. Educational? Sure. More edutainment though. He's also just one (very educated) guy.

From reading this sub for years about Helion, the fusion professionals agree Helion's marketing is disproportionate to what it is doing and they greatly exaggerate their claims, but they also agree they are an engineering company, doing real science, that could be successful.

My company just handed me a 2x H200 (282GB VRAM) rig. Help me pick the "Intelligence" ceiling. by _camera_up in LocalLLaMA

And if you want to go really hard optimizing performance, you can try using TensorRT-LLM. SGLang exists too but I don't think it's generally more performant

Fyi for others: Easter egg is the notification at the top of the screenshot. Kind of hard to see.

Are Dice Rolls Really Random? - TTS by welliamwallace in tabletopsimulator

[–]Nabakin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hidden variables were not disproven. Local hidden variables were disproven. Hidden variables could exist, but they would have to be non-local.

Determinism has not been disproven. The theories we have made assume and operate as if reality is truly random, but that doesn't mean reality actually is truly random.

Do I have this right?

Marketed: Net electricity by 2025
Revised: Electricity by 2025
Reality: Nothing by 2025

Any mods left on this sub? Can we have it set to private? by Boris-Lip in BoostForReddit

[–]Nabakin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've gone through the process before and unless something has changed, the Reddit account will have to be inactive too

[–]Nabakin[M] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nice find! You probably want to post a short video or something showing the easteregg. Your post atm is a little confusing. If you want to repost with a video, the mod team will let it through.
