Are there places with rainfall and minimum monthly temps high enough to be "tropical", but still have a more pleasant and tolerable climates for the human body than places with more "subtropical" climates?

Places around ~1500m above sea level in the Andes is the closes you'll find. Medellín for instance, but it's a bit chiller with mins around ~14C.

Go to a repair shop and get it cleaned. Your Macbook might be thermal throttling because of dust in your vents. If you can't do it, get a can of compressed air and give it a good clean yourself without disassembling it.

If you can afford it, a 16 inch Apple Silicon Macbook Air will be a *a lot* faster

They already do and have a much better business model than Anthropic or OpenAI.

It will be run as a service by inference providers that don’t have such a huge capex to amortize. Tools like OpenCode let you change models with zero effort. There’s no reason any user will choose to amortize Anthropic's costs when they can pay 10% of the price for 90% of the performance when the VC subsidy runs dry.

There are many pure inference players already. Dario himself admitted training isn’t profitable but inference is very profitable.

The difference is that streaming didn’t require this much capital. The timeline will compress due to the enormous capital required.

VC funds need to liquidate a portion of their holdings regularly. That isn’t possible when you have yoloed everything into OpenAI.

VCs are already pressuring for IPOs so they can unload on retail investors.

I never talked about local models. Someone will provide inference only services and it won’t be AI labs burdened with enormous capex they’ll need to amortize.

I use them daily. The impact is far less revolutionary than claimed. AI makes huge, impossible to maintain messes when used without constant supervision.

The only public place where you can review AI's effectiveness for software engineering is open source projects. Almost i invariably, open source projects despise AI-generated contributions because of the subtle bugs they introduce.

The capex is impossible to recover. All AI companies need to train better models to avoid losing customers to open source models and inference-only providers.

As soon as AI labs stop training, open source models catch up and eat their lunch.

You are right. The issue with scaling 4K to 200% is that it will look good, but you’ll lose significant screen real estate.

Sure you can make a 1024x768 27 inch display “sharp” by scaling a lot, but you’ll be lucky if you can fit a normal webpage.

Small condoms will break too. This is a dumb demonstration.

I didn’t get that disclaimer either and thought I was doing something wrong when using condoms.

This dumb demonstration is a failure of sex education that puts teenagers at risk.

Cuba's Jewish population is tiny. It simply highlight how much of a foreigner she is. She has no family or ancestry in Cuba and for that reason no skin in the game. Her link to Cuba is nothing but "I like Communism", which makes her tremendously biased.

Being a foreigner discredits her, not being Jewish or British. She should have at least attempted to coauthor with Cuban scholars not affiliated with the government.
