My guess is that someone knew this and leaked it because they also have insider information that Nvidia is about to be forced to write down the AI trade anyways and they 1) don't want Jensen walking away with a golden parachute and/or 2) want to use the spectacle of Jensen's infidelity to color the narrative or distract from something.

Pass is one of many contranyms, they are good fun to study.

Jensen has said the primary lifecycle is now 10 years

I think there was a lot of pressure building in our community because the ballot box has been no outlet for many years. We've had an increasingly burdensome and insane political environment worldwide and people dealing with unmitigated suffering. It leaks into HN and Reddit in different ways. People here are very plugged into policy and national circumstance and so they can't help but color their opinions.

Also, if the current administration and the tech oligarchs decided next to start burning poor people to power data centers, it would be a bit unreasonable to just expect the discussion to revolve around how cool the automation technology in the poor people furnace is.

I.e., sometimes you just can't separate politics from everything else.

Exactly. I can just imagine the HN commenters with flagging/modding ability back in 1939 Germany flagging all the unpleasant discussions and urging commenters to focus on recent automotive innovation and the exciting advances in television technology, and not bring "politics" into everything.

Honestly I'd have been ok with that back then, and I'd be more than ok with it now. There are so many places to have political discussions. Pretty much everywhere else. The problem is that people can't discuss politics without getting negative, judgmental, and emotional about it. Can we not have one place to discuss tech without all that?

Model 3 and Y are basically the same car and both are tied for last in Europe

Y is still best selling EV in AU/NZ, despite vast competition from China.

It could be similar to late 90’s market share slide of Macintosh. Apple was the largest pc manufacturer but had the smallest market segment overall. There were so many IBM clones that the overall market share of the PC market was higher volume than Macintosh.

Model Y might be the best selling, but the VW sister brands have 18 models that compete and together outsell the Y.

Amazing! Thank you for the idea. My memory is so bad that something like this seems like it would be helpful just to remember any bit of my life.

Evaluation loops do this easily. You have to run hundreds of reasoning jobs in parallel and very quickly you can torch thousands of dollars.

Yeah, it was basically this, and running a whole lot of agents concurrently to churn through the dataset faster.

Yup, run multiple agents on expensive model in loop via API.

You can do it if your employer has endless pockets.

Example: $30/1M input tokens (I don’t count output or cache, for simplification), you have several daily agents for everything => 3M tokens daily per agent * 10 agents ~> $900/day => $328k/year (API spending)

Also why are cards hundreds of pages long? Seems like a broken metaphor.

The phrase system card is so frustrating because it’s using the word card like it’s a metaphor for something but then abuses it. A card is supposed to be small and concise. This has many, many pages and is an “addendum”.

I would prefer they just maintain it as long as possible and maybe deploy a proxy for earth that trails behind it indefinitely once it’s finally out of range. Let’s set an unbreakable record.
