If the US ended up damaging power plans and desalination plants, that would mark a clear inflection point in the number of "friends" the US has militarily, economically, and politically. Sure, Israel would still be a big fan, and maybe Saudi Arabia, but otherwise the US would become a pariah.
It would be damaging to Iran and potentially hundreds of thousands or millions would die.
That's a lot of blood debts.
There is no way the US would walk away from that situation into a better outcome.
But I used 70m tokens yesterday on glm-5.1 (thanks glm for having good observability of your token usage unlike openai, dunno about anthropic). And got incredible beautiful results that I super trust. It's done amazing work.
This limitation feels very shady and artificial to me, and i don't love this, but I also feel like I'm working somewhat effectively within the constraints. This does put a huge damper on people running more autonomous agentic systems, unless they have Pi or other systems that can more self adaptively improve the harness.
The 590x was great and lasted me around 5-6 years until I picked up a replacement, but it was really just a rebadged 580.
The 580 is a solid card that was an excellent price/performance value and held a respectable spot in the market for a very long time. Many video games now use is as the entry level bar for playability.
It doesn't hold the same "type" of spot, but it's a workhorse in the same way something like a NVIDIA 1070 was.
Meaning, you can somewhat opt out of the damage sedentary labor does to the body by exercising and using your body. It is much more difficult to avoid manual labor from damaging the body.
Sure, which is why many white collar workers look down on tradesmen (in the US at least), and tradesmen look down on white collar workers as "bullshit email jobs".
Some guys choose to do joruneyman work, but they typically have the option if they're not mute or something. It's a choice ij my experience (They like OT or working alone or hate travel)
Consider the turnover rate as an geometric series.
Also 1 foreman in the electrical field runs effectively 50 guys max if good, and smaller sites might be 10 men to a foreman. I currently have 3 foreman running 5 to 6 guys each at my current company (2 close sites of 3)
It's really not the ratio but the turnover. Guys who aren't making it up into leadership self select after 5 years or so.
The ratios seem unbelievable to those in tech, but I'm just saying you're unlikely to make it to 10 years without having at least the opportunity for some leadership.
> make it to 10 years without having at least the opportunity for some leadership.
Maybe if that person is young and hasn't done real work.
The best ICs are often horrible managers, it's a different career. Same applies idea here. Or just don't want to put up with the bullshit, the fights, the showing up drunk to work, or missing tools, etc.
> In order to make this possible, we’ve moved to our own bare metal racks. Early in our testing we realized that moving VMs across cloud nodes would not have acceptable performance properties. We asked Google Cloud and AWS for a quote on their bare metal nodes and found that the monthly cost was equivalent to the total cost of the hardware so we did that.
Yes! And good on you, well-tuned bare metal performance is hard to beat.
