It looks like the president - which was a businessman - will make a huge damage to American IT businesses. And IT stocks dominate the S&P 500, comprising roughly 1/3 of the index's total market capitalization... Good luck America!

I've seen this going around on social media but not on reputable news sites.

Coincidentally, the SK Hynix US IPO has been announced: https://www.reuters.com/world/asia-pacific/sk-hynix-files-co...


top signal if I've seen one


Maybe they can stack LLM parameters in 200 layers like 3D NAND flash and make the chip very small ...


IBM was founded in 1911 and it survived many things...


Yeah but this time it's different!

Hey have you seen my tulip collection?


So did GE…


...and there would be dozen equally capable open-weight models which could be run locally at almost no cost... poor AI investors in this case..


Nvidia is the ultimate beneficiary of the money invested (due to expensive GPUs). If Nvidia loses these good customers, it will have less revenue. So it prefers to slowly buy it's customers with this money...


I get that, but what I'm saying is that it's anticompetitive as heck. In a fair system, profits from NVDA's revenue growth should've been distributed to shareholders as dividends or reinvested into the company itself, not buy its own customers -- that's my (and countless others') biggest gripe with the whole AI bubble bs.

Antitrust regulators must be sleeping at the wheels.


<joke> GGUF when? </joke>


I'm very happy that "AGI office workers" will use Microsoft products - so I don't have to do it anymore... But: they will not pay a dime for the licenses...


Don't panic, you will still do the paying for the licenses.


You can put camera in transparent Faraday cage. With camera and gyro one can do basic positioning...


Basic yes, but drones are precision strike weapons by necessity: they can't carry enough payload to kill everything in a 50m radius for example. They depend on generally nailing a single target with cm-level precision.

And all that stuff is a new supply chain and more weight which isn't payload.

That a countermeasure can be built doesn't mean it's necessarily effective to do so - your drones get less cheap, less numerous, you have to incorporate such systems into tactical and strategic planning.


You're talking about a counterdrone system that's at technology demonstrator stage. I don't think they even have any contract or timeline for delivering production systems. Meanwhile tech used in the Ukraine war is adapting by the month.

"That a countermeasure can be built doesn't mean it's necessarily effective to do so" applies especially to reading a corporate press release about a system doesn't even have a timeline for being on the battlefield.


>payload to kill everything in a 50m radius for example.

cluster heads solve this beautifully because 1kg of high explosive kills everything good enough in 5 meters radius.


Which is still nothing in terms of area lethality terms.

For comparison, the Excalibur GPS guided artillery shell was considered precision because it would hit within 5m reliably.

Compare to the lethal range of a 155mm, where the kill radius is 50m and casualty at 100m.


155mm has payload of around 7kg.


Also you can't buy the drones off AliExpress anymore. This shouldn't be underestimated, because all the drone swarm wet dreams were built on this.


More than basic. DJI offers full GPS-less camera and accelerometer based nav technology on their drones.


"Then java did it too." Java had green threads in 1.0. They were removed. Then Java added virtual threads.
