In true "Bonfire of the Vanities" style, all it takes is for China to announce that it has created hashtag#DeepSeek, an open source hashtag#AI that is much more powerful than the one the West claims to have, for everything to fall down...
First lesson for being human: accept reality, vulnerability and humility
An AI lab out of China has ignited panic in Silicon Valley after releasing impressive AI models more cheaply and with less-powerful chips than U.S. AI giants.

Das Bild zeigt ein Display und Bedienelemente eines Geräts, vermutlich eines Ladegeräts oder Energiemanagementsystems. Das Display zeigt verschiedene Messwerte an: Spannung (33.8V und 25.0V), Stromstärke (73.9A), sowie die Leistung in Watt (2498W und 2500W). Es werden auch Werte für die Batteriespannung und einen U-low-Wert angezeigt. Die Bedienelemente erlauben die Auswahl verschiedener Modi und die Steuerung der Energiezufuhr.

"The P550 is a 3-wide out-of-order core with a 13 stage pipeline. Out-of-order execution lets the core move past a stalled instruction to extract instruction level parallelism. It’s critical for achieving high performance because cache and memory latency can be significant limiters for modern CPUs."

A plausible explanation for the Europe-bashing Marc Andreessen engages in (given his company has invested in European AI startups) is that it's political. He's a smart man. So he knows he's pushing the "Overton window" to make the EU de-regulate in ways favourable to his company / investments.

Hier ist eine Beschreibung des Bildes für sehbehinderte Personen:
Das Bild zeigt eine weitläufige Landschaft unter einem dramatischen Himmel. Die Sonne scheint durch eine Schicht aus hellen und dunklen Wolken, die den Großteil des Himmels ausfüllen und ein interessantes Spiel aus Licht und Schatten erzeugen. Im Vordergrund erstreckt sich ein abgeerntetes Feld, das sich bis zu einer dunklen Baumreihe am Horizont erstreckt. Hinter den Bäumen ist eine weitere, weniger deutlich erkennbare Hügelkette zu sehen. Das Gesamtbild wirkt ruhig und etwas melancholisch, geprägt von den kontrastreichen Farben des Himmels und der dunklen Silhouette der Bäume. ― Hier ist eine Alt-Text-Beschreibung des Bildes:
Ein schwarz-weiß gefleckter Hund, vermutlich ein Border Collie, sitzt auf einem schmutzigen Badetuch im Kofferraum eines Autos. Der Hund ist nass und schmutzig, seine Pfoten sind besonders dreckig. Das Badetuch ist bunt mit gelben, blauen und grauen Streifen und trägt deutliche Schmutzspuren. Im Hintergrund ist ein Teil des Autoinnenraums und ein Teil eines grünen Hunde-Transportkorbs zu sehen.
Prendo in prestito #birretteSegrete per segnalarvi questa: la sola e unica birra chiara che, a oggi, mi sia piaciuta. Amo le rosse e le scure, prediligo le belghe, e questa bionda italiana (o meglio, ossolana) è stata una scoperta. Il profumo, prima ancora del gusto, mi ha conquistata. Se vi capita di passare dall'ossolano, assaggiatela e fatemi sapere. [Goduria inarrivabile: accompagnarla a un piatto di tagliatelle ai funghi]
Ecco una descrizione dell'immagine: L'immagine mostra due bottiglie di birra artigianale. Una bottiglia mostra l'etichetta "Balabiott West Coast IPA 5.5%", con un design che include motivi geometrici e colori scuri. L'altra bottiglia mostra l'etichetta "Ganassa 33 cl", con informazioni sugli ingredienti e sul produttore. Entrambe le bottiglie sono tenute in mano.

My best shot at a stock photo for the #Fediverse, showing its most popular projects.
Please show some mercy, I am not a hand model (obvi) and my masking skills are a little rusty.
If some photographers would like to improve it, I could share my original photo and screenshot.
Hilariously, when I opened the tripod my bracelet got stuck in it and I semi-panicked for a few moments because I was home alone... with a tripod stuck to my wrist. Thankfully I managed to free myself 😂
When I first joined Lemmy, it was not easy to find my way around. I left Reddit because they screwed over 3rd party apps, so finding Voyager early on was a blessing. I just want people to be aware that there is an easier way to navigate Lemmy, and they update regularly.
It's also very featureless. Basically videos, comments, likes. I'm on it, and I've opened it maybe 6x in 2 weeks? I also think it's just an open feed; all the videos posted in chronological order (but I could be wrong here). Idk if this goes against the Fediverse creed to have an algorithm-fed feed, but I think part of the nature of these short form, endless-scrolling apps is finding vids about your interests from new places.
I think we should ultimately support algorithm feeds, but they should be free and open algorithms that can be peer reviewed, and also maybe give the users some control over which algorithm is applied and how. The problem with current social algorithms is they operate in the dark and are manipulative, not that they provide relevant content to users.
That, and it's arguable primary purpose is to serve ads. "People similar to you clicked on these ads" type shit. And I get it to a point, platforms need to support themselves, and unless it's a paid app, that doesn't keep servers running. But it'd be nice to just get one every 10 minutes, and not every 10 seconds, and also to opt out of tracking for served ads instead of just random ones.
I disagree. Anybody that joins Loops right now is forced to the one instance. That's not federation. That's not an issue for you. Which is valid. But you don't get to police those who don't share your view.
Really? I just installed it and all I see is news in French. When I try to add more "platforms", it tells me that I need to choose a platform first, but doesn't give me any options. It's like it just expects me to figure that out on my own. Very unintitive.
Am I the only one who is bothered by this pic. It looks so fake and photoshopped.
Maybe it’s because my phone has weird contrast settings for accessibility.
Obviously I think whoever made this pic has great intentions and it’ll definitely be good enough for an article banner or something which is what it’s most likely to be used for.
It just occurred to me that the Forbes article uses a stock photo of a hand holding up a smartphone with a bunch of apps from mainstream, for-profit social media... even if the piece is about the #Fediverse.
So on my to do list for today: recreating a similar photo showing Fediverse software instead. Like, how my actual phone looks like.
As a photographer, I feel it's my duty to do this.
If you have constructive feedback, it seems like the photographer is open to it. It's not dunking on anyone to say "hey great work and cool idea, just so you know the image looks a little "off" on my screen, possibly due to my accessibility settings, which are blah blah blah... hope this helps, thanks for the great work!"
After reading through this, it wouldn't surprise me if he turned out to be a Russian operative. In particular a Slovakian, no hate to Slavs but he just strikes me as one ya know?
It all just reads like a disgruntled federal operative letting the popularity get to their head.
In any case, I'm simply disappointed in his choices for not open sourcing software that would undoubtedly march on in terms of progress at light speed if fully FOSS.
I hope he learns to hone his ego, it's within and without. I just hope he comes to his senses and begins to work with devs who are desperate to get a peak at the closed source portions of his sofware. - By open sourcing any blackboxed software.
