A bunch of ideas doesn't make a book. Actual writing takes place, the length of each sentence, the specific choice of words, the pace, the choices, the editing. It's literally an art. Nobody…

I don't know about that, a lot of those bloated enterprise solutions are becoming obsolete fast, and integrations becoming a moot point as these models advance.

Sushi chefs spend years learning the correct feel of the fish - when it's warm enough, when it's slimy. Japanese are taken aback when they are forced to wear gloves for "safety", w…

All the things you wrote, but also quality. Quality is a giant issue. Garbage usability. Excel is the only Microsoft product I thoroughly respect. The amount of things you can't do in PowerPoin…

It's about the thermal conductivity. Helium has 150mW/m K vs Argon ~18mW/m K so you can't replace it. The only alternatives to Helium are Neon, which is 3x worse and much more expe…

I just tried 5.1 and got the exact same output as for 5.2 (actually I got slightly less info with 5.1)

Think of things like your preferred units (meters, kg, cups, tablespoons, milliliters). Or, do not suggest recipes with x ingredient. Language preferences. Etc etc etc.

There's several options, and in the future there will be even more. Labs like Mistral, Sakana AI already have good products; they will only get better.

Nice overview. Some of the descriptions are quite thin on details, like "new model by x", or "latest model by y". Well of course it was new at the time but that doesn't really…

Yes but how do you do that? that magical third electrode sounds harder to make than the original problem. Edit: I think I get it now, it's a chemical reaction. By applying a voltage with some pol…

I've been to the Mediterranean several times. They eat a ton of (delicious) super oily food, sausages, meats, eggs, fish (often fried or deep fried), salty cheeses, greasy stuff, tons of white br…

I have never in my several decades of life seen and ad for anything and thought "I need to get that".

Keep up at it. Without pressuring, or without making it the elephant in the room uncomfortable topic that makes them avoid you. One day you will catch them in a good day.

I don't quite disagree but this comparison is typically unfair, because when you really know about a subject you tend to ask way more difficult questions than about other subjects, so of course t…

It's very difficult. It took ASML 20 years, and Apple has none of the core competences to make this happen, like optical lithography, EUV optics, plasma physics, vacuum, laser, sources...and then…
