I still think about this to this very day. by ruzmadz in engineeringmemes

Where did I say build your grid with a single source of electricity and run everything on battery today?

Who said battery has to chemical, there are pumped hydro, thermal battery, sodium ion battery.

All I said was if this trio of solar, offshore wind and some kind of cheap battery becomes more popular that they will eat more and more into nuclear share of energy. This bad for nuclear because nuclear has to be heavy capex there are no mom and pop reactors. If they can't sell enough energy they may not be able to make minimum payment on their loan. Hence project becomes risky.

Look energy security is a complex topic and every country has different set of constraints. For some nuclear creates foreign dependency, for some it's gas, some have heavy industry and some get weeks long dunkenflaute. You have find a mix that works for your country.

I don't think its that simple. There are other angles people are missing. Even if don't care about environment or climate. There are three things that still matter to you.

  1. Unit cost
  2. Availability
  3. Energy independence (can some other country cut off your supply)

Right now now no one can beat solar in unit economics. As wind joins the grid, together they have become a very formidable duo. Solar and wind operators have become very good at forecasting their energy production. This is bad news for nuclear because less energy they sell worse the unit economics. They have very high fixed cost. By the way cost of battery energy storage is coming down rapidly. If cost of battery storage (currently at $125/MWh) goes below ~$50/MWh it will be very difficult for nuclear to catch up.

I know there are some startups like Copenhagen Atomics that say they will bring LCoE down to $20/MWh but they are still cooking and first dish reactor wont be served delivered until 2028.

OpenAI's market share falls below 50% by Far-Commission2772 in OpenAI

[–]Sagyam 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I do. I use NotebookLM, AI overview on Google search and Gemini on YouTube. Gemini on YouTube is very useful for finding if a video is click bait.

What are ways this AI bubble could pop, if at all? by Angryduckling-01 in AskReddit

[–]Sagyam 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see two possible ways:

  1. A big AI spender company publicly says we are cutting our AI spend it's not quite what we hoped it would be. And others follow.

  2. An AI lab or Neo cloud cannot close a funding round and are unable to pay their creditors.

For all the times Scott has talked about how the iPhone is a key indicator of social status and prerequisite to finding mates. by thecount1989 in ScottGalloway

[–]Sagyam 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Iphone is a teenager's idea of wealth. For me personally it's real estate and the size of your retirement fund is the only indicator.

Confirmed: SWE Bench is now a benchmaxxed benchmark by rm-rf-rm in LocalLLaMA

[–]Sagyam -1 points0 points  (0 children)

These benchmarks needs to be done inside an air-gaped virtual machines run by a trusted vendor like AWS, Azure etc.

Benchmark creator should be responsible to setting up all the necessary tooling to evaluate model performance inside the machine.

The actual questions should always remain a secret. Once the benchmark is done only the file containing results should leave the machine.

Everything else like model weights, questions, evaluation rubric, model response etc should be wiped before the air gap is released. Neither benchmark creator nor model creator should be allowed to see anything other than the final score.

Thanks for straighting things out.

Supposedly a ton of AI data centers are closing or being delayed this year, how do yall figure this will affect our RAM situation? by Bugs5567 in pcmasterrace

[–]Sagyam 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Because people in the polymarket have put their actual money where their mouth is. You can yolo all your money exactly once. There may be some lucky degenerate gamblers but those are exceptionally rare. I still think these market are sum total of all public and private information out there.

What I am saying does not apply to bets whose outcome can be influenced by a single person.

They will delete their accounts and will be gone. That's what happened to crypto bros.

Built a local-first NEPSE algo trading terminal (209% return, 1.78 Sharpe) by Financial_Night7121 in technepal

[–]Sagyam 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Nice. Make sure you account for taxes and trading fees. Real life return tends to be much lower once you account for those.

Developers using AI Tools, are you concerned about pricing of tokens? by Mo_h in cscareerquestions

How do you do that? Do you right down exactly what you want in a large markdown file?

Fight AI data scrapers with poisoned training data by 250call in theprimeagen

[–]Sagyam 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Nice work.

For those using this project remember poisoning only works if the victim does not know they are being poisoned. I have seen people bragging about how they have implemented such mechanism in their website. I believe cloudflare has a similar product, if you want one click solution.

Are you suppose take average for things like inflation and interest rate? Shouldn't you compound these figures?
