It’s pretty similar, yeah. A lot of casual investing (and even a worrying amount of professional investing) focuses too much on changes in exchange-value while overlooking use-vale. Exchange-value fluctuates with market trends, with how people feel about something and what they are willing to trade to have it. Use-value is sort of like the ‘floor’ – it’s the material value of something, its practical use.
At the moment, the computer programmes that get called “AI” have an exchange value that almost certainly exceeds their actual use-value (which is still hazy at the moment; this stuff is pretty new). A hardware company like NVIDIA really benefits from this, because it drives up the exchange value of their computer chips, which already have an established use-value. There’s a risk here, though. At the moment, demand for chips is high and they are producing as much as they can to meet it. If it eventually turns out the use for “AI” is significantly less than its exchange value, they’ll find themselves producing more chips than people actually need.
I wonder if it’s just 'cus Nvidia isn’t being talked about much. “AI” is the buzzword, the There’s Gold in Them Thar Hills of this bubble. Hardware is the picks and shovels, where the real cash is being made. If they’re just training this on scrapping text from the web, that’s an easy fact to overlook.
this is some “I had a ticket for the Titanic but missed the boat” bullshit
VR is hauntology
Right? Soo many screens, why does a car need that many screens? We already all have computers in our pockets!
I think that’s it, thank you!
There was this indi game that was basically Star Trek Bridge Simulator before bridge simulator even existed, and i’m pretty sure it was the reason the IP licensed game even exists, but I cannot remember the name of it.
I know there was a Games You Might Not Have Tried Extra Credits youtube video on it, but there was a lot of those… anyone know the name off the top of their head?
That’s the good ending! It means we’ve carefully maneuvered Sol through the galactic disc to do a hand shake with a red dwarf’s liquid water zone. It means there is time, time to explore to test to get it right. Life goes on going on, sentience ripples through the whole ecosystem and people learn to come together for cake! …well, except that fellow in the trees… that’s a tad bleak…
that’s so sweet, a tea party on a spek orbiting a red dwarf
looks like a minecraft house. Honestly, that might do well with some people. If you were blind or hard of vision, it would be very easy to navigate by feel and memory.
That first one looks like he’d deliver milk to your house and sleep with your spouse

And the other ones are in China which is most likely not much better in that aspect
Isn’t it? I don’t live in china. I’m not subject to their laws. A local business is much more of a threat than a foreign one.
Because of its radical shape, it is said that a taxi driver first came up with its nickname dà kùchǎ (大裤衩), roughly translated as “big boxer shorts”. Locals often refer to it as “big pants”.
think this was in Issaacc Assimovv’s Robot Visions
my ability to order water pistols on Alibaba, however, will ensure otherwise 🔫
