ISS solar panels only make 200kw at max.

It's not comparable to any data center.


What if enemy or some anti-ai activities or etc attack it? How to protect it? It's just a too easy target.

It's just a dumbest idea ever if Elon truly believes it. I'm pretty sure he doesn't.


That's the worst service I've ever seen. It asks you the size of each zip file and I said 50G at first. And I couldn't download it because the connection was so unstable. No way to resume it and every 20~30 mins, it failed in the middle. Chrome, firefox, safari were all the same. I tried from a GCE VM as well to see if that's my network problem but didn't help.

I had to request again with 2G and I was able to download files finally. But only one by one. And after download 3~5 files, I had to login again as their login expires so frequently.

I had to do that for days and the download got expired. Oh my god. I had to request it again. And you know what? Their file list wasn't deterministic. I had to download from the beginning. lol

I finally made it and I swear I will never use any cloud service from apple.


Same issue has been going on for me with just about any big download from apple serves. Could be icloud. Could be xcode. Doesn’t matter. It will randomly fail in the transfer and require manual intervention to restart. Been this way for years.

> Real management work doesn't operate like this.

I agree but in the opposite direction. So many managers not only doing that but doctoring, filtering and tainting it as well. So AI would be more effective for the most of bad managers.


I remember I had a 27inch crt on my desk. The desk top bended after a humid rainy season so I had to fix it by adding multiple metal supports.


I also agree with you on the O0 I'll distinctions importance. So as google open-source it, someone can improved it freely.


It's not that level of open. You can't just do a pull request, not only because there's no infrastructure for it but because you also need to change the name. It becomes a different product.

> No Modified Version of the Font Software may use the Reserved Font Name

And if you are fine changing the name and releasing it as a separate font, you might as well just type "Ubuntu" and discover that this font already does what you want!

I really don't see the point of designing a font that is worse than what's already out there. What is Google trying to achieve here? Just another headline, giving something openly to the world, good brand publicity? Seems like an expensive way to do it so probably not, but then why


Actually 5. The gemini result is pretty correct. And for that test, IMO only gemini properly preserved the original aesthetic. All others don't have the dark/scary mood.


Why Macbook Pro? Isn't Mac Studio is a lot cheaper and the right one to compare with DGX Spark?


I think the idea is that instead of spending an additional $4000 on external hardware, you can just buy one thing (your main work machine) and call it a day. Also, the Mac Studio isn’t that much cheaper at that price point.


> Also, the Mac Studio isn’t that much cheaper at that price point.

In the list price, it's 1000 USD cheaper. 3,699 vs 4,699 I know a lot can be relative but that's a lot for me for sure.


Fair. I looked it up just yesterday so I though I knew the prices from memory, but apparently I mixed something up.


Being able to leave the thing at home and access it anywhere is a feature, not a bug.

The Mac Studio is a more appropriate comparison. There is not yet a DGX laptop, though.


> Being able to leave the thing at home and access it anywhere is a feature, not a bug.

I can do that with a laptop too. And with a dedicated GPU. Or a blade in a data center. I though the feature of the DGX was that you can throw it in a backpack.


The DGX is clearly a desktop system. Sure, it's luggable. But the point is, it's not a laptop.


How are you spending $4000 on a screen and a keyboard?


You're not going to use the DGX as your main machine, so you'll need another computer. Sure, not a $4000 one, but you'll want at least some performance, so it'll be another $1000-$2000.


> You're not going to use the DGX as your main machine

Why not?


Because Nvidia is incredibly slow with kernel updates and you are lucky if you get them at all after just two years. I am curious if they will update these machines for longer than their older dgx like hardware.


I didn't think of it ;)

Now that you bring it up, the M3 ultra Mac Studio goes up to 512GB for about a $10k config with around 850 GB/s bandwidth, for those who "need" a near frontier large model. I think 4x the RAM is not quite worth more than doubling the price, especially if MoE support gets better, but it's interesting that you can get a Deepseek R1 quant running on prosumer hardware.


Why do you think a good steward shouldn't have a financial interest?


As a non native speaker, I didn't know the word "delve" but now I know this word. I think internet community is learning from LLM?

Or from each other?
