bwhitty commented on How OpenAI uses complex and circular deals to fuel its multibillion-dollar rise   nytimes.com/interactive/2... · Posted by u/reaperducer

Okay, that article is a little bit shallow. I just summarises the headlines of the last weeks of circular deals. But is there also a more in depth article that sheds a little more light onto what this actually means? From a financial perspective?

TSMC or ASML? Or both? I am not trying to be dismissive, just curious about who deserves the credits here.

bwhitty · 2 years ago
It’s a massive supply chain, so, yes, both. But also a hundred other companies. TSMC and other foundries bring together many technologies from many companies (and no doubt a lot of their own) to ship a full foundry solution (design-technology-cooptimization, masks, lithography, packaging, etc).

Eh, I have a sneaking suspicion the compute dies won't be shut down as much as you'd think, and that there will be some extra power usage from crossing the dies like desktop Ryzen parts (though hopefully not nearly as severe).

A good Process Lasso config is probably worth the time investment. Instead of "trusting" the scheduler, you could force everything non time sensitive onto the efficiency island, maybe by default.

The 3D Foveros packaging technology is critical as it allows some path lengths to be much shorter than if you had to traverse that same path but only in the horizontal 2D plane.

Very excited to see how this plays out in practice.

No problem with it on ioniq 5. The equivalent on the Kia was disastrous implementation. The one on Toyota is simple but robust as well

Yes, another anecdote to add to this thread of anecdotes is that my HI5 with HDA2 is stellar. I do hours at a time on highways in CA without a disengage.

For MT performance and graphics Ryzen 5800U and 6800U are even better.
bwhitty · 3 years ago
6800U is awesome from what I’ve seen — better efficiency by far, and legit integrated graphics better than Xe — but it is vanishingly rare, even months after announcement.

The scale Intel has in manufacturing mobile CPUs is still unmatched.

This appears to be driven by MobileEye.

Seems like a very logical thing to have engineers standardize on, and then hand off to the NHTSA, etc., for governance.

So why do these sick people not get some lawyers and start suing?

Obviously there must be something stopping them, what is it?

bwhitty · 8 years ago
These are poor communities. I know you realize how much lawyers cost.

Could a firm step in in hopes of getting a big pay day going up against the huge titans of the Chemical industry? Probably. Just hasn't happened yet, I'd say.

We need to make chemicals somewhere. Where do we put the chemical plants then? Maybe somewhere where nobody lives where the prevailing winds blow over the ocean? The only place I can think of like that is southern Argentina, but nobody lives there so how do you get all the plant engineers and workers into the plant everyday? It's a tough problem.

Is neoprene really the only way to make wet suits? I doubt it.

Regulate. A dirty word on HN, surely. Regulate the production of and, possibly, the import of neoprene, etc. Force industries to innovate - I know that's not a dirty word here - in order to sell these goods to Americans. Maybe then America becomes the sole producer of environmentally-friendly wet-suits to the whole of the word.

I think this is the only solution since your proposed solution of just "put the plants somewhere else" is, as you've pointed out, untenable.
