Liking Lasagne and hating Mondays?

It’s funny in the first place to argue from what “they allow”. The customer doesn’t have to care about your internal policies, fucko. Fulfill your end of the bargain.

It’s the NVIDIA Jetson Orin NX 16 GB. From the Ampere family, 3.5 years old. Small Tegra SoC.

I guess something like this is a typical dual use good, and doesn’t fall under the AI Chip export restriction either because it’s too weak. Seems like it would be trivial for Russians to import them from China or India or whomever really.

Not just Nvidia.

For a start of who the shovel sellers might be, you can take a look at the list in his post that Torsten Slok used to calculate his margin numbers:

Note: Data as of 2Q 2026 and for OpenAI (1Q 2026 estimate from PitchBook) and Anthropic (2Q 2026 estimate from Financial Times). Averages are equal-weighted bucket averages of Energy & Grid (Constellation Energy, Vistra, NextEra Energy, Vertiv, Eaton, Arista Networks), Silicon & Equipment (Nvidia, AMD, Broadcom, Marvell, TSMC, SK Hynix, Samsung Electronics, Micron), Compute & Cloud (Super Micro, Dell Technologies, Foxconn, Equinix, Digital Realty, Amazon/AWS, Microsoft/Azure, Alphabet/Google Cloud, CoreWeave, Nebius) and Models & Applications (OpenAI, Anthropic). Sources: Bloomberg, PitchBook, Apollo Chief Economist

In short according to his research the people currently making a profit or at least positive margins, are the people who build chips and memory, who build energy infrastructure, and who build servers and data canters.

I would like to see the distinction between Servers (Super Micro, Dell Technologies, Foxconn) and Datacenters (Equinix, Digital Realty, Amazon/AWS, Microsoft/Azure, Alphabet/Google Cloud, CoreWeave, Nebius) but he seems to have put them together.

Also I heard from our local news that ABB (which is Swiss, Edit: apparently also Swedish) is profiting too, they belong in the power category.

And I wonder why Arista goes in the Energy category, I’d see them and Cisco, and Juniper, and Extreme, and Nokia in a separate network category.

‘Profits are currently being funded by investors rather than earned from customers’

Which profits?

Ah, now I see the actual quote is: “[…] the AI boom’s profits are currently being funded by investors rather than earned from customers.” he means the profits of the shovel sellers, not AI profits.

Sure, I’m not saying Arm or Qualcomm are irrelevant in the gaming space, in fact I think Arm is going to replace X86 more and more, like we see it happening on servers too.

But FEX only runs on ARM64. And you wouldn’t put a platform with a 15 year old efficiency-focused CPU into the Steam Frame. So this Kuno platform is probably unrelated to gaming and comes from some other project instead.

I don’t think this is likely to be gaming related.
That’s a 15 year old efficiency trimmed 32bit ARMv7-A CPU.

Man those quotes from Chris Hays in the article hit hard.

I think I need to watch the video they are from tonight.

By the way, regarding integration, I just learned from a colleague last week that he uses emacs for editing remote files too. You can just open a file as:

/method:user@host:filename, with method being ssh or ftp for example

Wow, thanks, I didn’t know that.

Before he was just mildly annoying and not something I wanted to watch.

Now he’s confirmed as an asshole, who must not be supported, from my perspective.

Deposit at a hotel? I haven’t seen that before.

That’s what happened to Meryl Streep while they were working on Don’t Look Up

1280 × 720 was “HD ready”
1920 × 1080 was “Full HD”

I always thought “HD ready” was a bit of a marketing scam.

Well I haven’t changed the tools I use (DeepL and Google Translate), but I assume they built in LLMs in the back end.

I don’t get it, why are there people on Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC 2021?

If you were going to do that why not choose Windows 10 IoT Enterprise LTSC 2021?

Hahah that’s great.

Hm this is Sim City 2000, no? I wonder if I played this. I think it looks a little more like Roller Coaster Tycoon than the one I remember. Maybe I played Sim City 3000.

Or I mixing everything up with Industriegigant. Help, I’m getting older.

Yes, I’m using the single-character, CJK-fullwidth forms for cm³, ml, cc to achieve vertical alignment

That’s kind of hot

The only use for machine learning I have is translation software, which was getting pretty good already before the LLM hype. Assuming I’d get that back at the pre-hype levels I’d have zero impact.

I only use it for checking how it would propose to formulate a sentence in French, but then I write my own anyway. Since it would be weird to pretend that was my level of skill towards the customer. Or sometimes I translate back my wobbly French to see if I went really wrong or ran into some false friends (terms that sound similar among the languages but have different meaning).

It’s like consulting the Chess Engine for the engine move to me.

If this software too vanished, then I’d just have to use the online dictionaries even more. And be even slower, but who cares this is only once every few weeks, anyway. Most French speaking Swiss are fine with English in text form too.

Yeah it seems to be a feature of the text editor, it already replaced the combination of input characters with the proper singular output character when I used the preview feature.

For context: The footer of my home instance says that it’s running Lemmy 0.19.20 at the moment, which is the latest stable version. Milan Ihl is good about keeping us up to date.

With that you made an en-dash, not an em-dash.

Let’s see if it does anything if you use three a — b vs two a – b ?

Edit: Yep looks like that’s it.
