  2. if you found a way to produce components for catching solar storms in ecological and people prosperous way you would be even greater king 😀 __1100101000.dec()trapping photons for real 😀 @theoceancleanup company also does probably interesting stuffing too

  3. By the way, I'm the one who deleted my comment on the last video, so that's why George can't find the comment in the beginning of the video. But, George also deleted his twitter post about tokens per second. So, we both deleted stuff. Even though I deleted my comment within 2 – 3 hours, I wasn't fast enough apparently. The reason I deleted the comment was because I realized quickly that I accidentally gave away free alpha on a silver platter. Why give away stuff for free, I thought to myself, if that stuff took time and effort. It's not like I learned CUDA and came up with the idea within 24 hours. No, it took time and work.

  4. 02:00:50 There are 2 types of speculators: those that make money and those that lose money. Your attack against speculators is
    logically inconsistent because you're only attacking profitable speculators. You also need to attack unprofitable
    speculators. An unprofitable speculator is, effectively, a philanthropist. They're doing charity work. Why are you attacking charity work? Baffling.

    Speculators are good and awesome people because they provide price discovery services to the world, they provide liquidity, and they do charity work (at least the unprofitable speculators). It's so nice to have a narrow bid/ask spread and to even actually have a bid and ask price at all times. Without speculators the bid and ask would totally disappear at certain times and you couldn't buy or sell at any price. Not a world I want to live in. Price discovery and liquidity are the foundation of the modern civilized world. That's why you hate Qualcomm: they won't give you an ask price and no or tiny liquidity. You would love Qualcomm if they gave you an ask price and huge liquidity. You should start an exchange where speculators buy and sell Qualcomm chips all day long. Total paradise. The world would be a better place.

  5. AMD crashes because it's dog shit. I have it crashing all the time, it's because AMD don't even bother on fixing it many many years. Especially Windows Updates AMD issues. This is why I want to switch to NVidia

  6. I thought you guys were in CA. Doesn't CA code say you need to be grid tied? If so, I do not think you need to draw from the grid. That is the reason batteries are a good idea. Read the NEMA 3.0 and you will understand why storing power off grid is preferred. You do need permits but you can act as your own GC, write up the plans for the design of the solar panels install and take the permits out yourself. You can then in theory hirer your own labor or do it yourself (with youtube and/or a GC/Electrician). You just need to learn some basic electrical infrastructure and put in the work. Infrastructure innovations and standards do not change that often like coding or software; it is more like (layer2) networking protocols, i.e., BGP, OSPF etc., and easier to learn.

  7. Hey man, I work for a sad company doing sad work, but I never give up! Also my kids aren't sad and I don't have a sad pool, so I have that going for me at least.

  8. Free speech is absolute.

    Incitement to violence isn't about speech at all. This should be obvious, you can say the same exact thing, even the same way, in a different context. Obviously, in a movie, a play, a joke, by yourself, etc.

    Incitement to violence is about the threat.

    It applies if there's no speech. If you point a gun at someone's head, you don't have to wait for them to pull the trigger to defend themselves.

    But you have a right to bear arms, you have the right to point a gun, you even have the right to point a gun at someone's head, Penn and Teller used to do it all the time.

    If it's a bright green squirt gun, it's not a credible threat.

    If it's an accurate replica squirt gun, it doesn't matter it's a squirt gun, people don't know that. It's a credible threat.

  9. 05:07:00 On the topic of free speech; I fear that as we go into the future the Constitution and its Amendments will be read hyper-literally.

    For example; the freedom of thought is not protected by the constitution, even though freedom of speech is protected by the First Amendment. So if you never think a specific thought you will never speak on that thing.

  10. Bought a 1000$ 6950XT a year and a half ago and I can confidently say that they do not care about stability and user experience. Their forums are riddled with people who're having grey screens/black screens/random crashes. Their AV1 decoding was broken for 3 months then their h265 encoding was broken for another 6. I never thought I'd be sorry for not buying a price inflated 1600$ 3090 at the time but I genuinely am. That 600$ price premium would've saved me a lot of grey hairs and troubleshooting only to realize that it's a GPU problem that I can not fix.

  11. dude please don't cheep out on a good mic.. your stuff is golden!
    sm7b / re320 / re20 + any sound card ( connection is ease mic > soundcard > pc )
    or a directional mic (off camera) such as Oktava МК-012 / AT875R / MKH50

  12. I agree fiat currency is the root problem. I also used to think Bitcoin would fail for the reasons you described. Then I lived through the blocksize wars and realized that there is a small group of literally religious followers of the protocol that will never change the 21 million limit. As a nonreligious person myself I underestimated the power and irrationality of such a belief and the effect it can have long term. There will always be many forks on the source, but there will also always be at least 2 nodes running the "real" Bitcoin, thus the network is practically invulnerable. Gold cannot function as money because you can't verify the total supply of the market without intermediaries. Its pure physical nature makes it vulnerable to centralization and confiscation. Bitcoin is both natively physical via PoW and natively digital. It's perfect money.

  13. bipolar dev – real open source ai for smb sector is 5 years away – cxl will help a ton, prices will drop and sw will mature and once smb gets onboard for local open source ai with uncensored models, real time analysis building both a search engine framework and sentiment analysis and p2p elements where people can share training data and models – once these things happen we will see more innovation and discovery – it will be a tidal wave compared to big tech ai efforts we see now, good for george for having the initiative

  14. Solar is usually wired in series up to around 500v 10amps.

    Much more than that, you do another run.

    They have special socket connectors that make it pretty hard to touch the contacts.

    Solar is pretty easy to install, the problem is, you're problem is, if it's roof mount, you're putting lag bolts in your roof and you want to make sure they're sealed well.

    If you haven't done roofing, you probably want to have a roofer show you the basics.
    Go with a high end sealant like geocell.

    There are a bunch of different varieties, but usually it consists of a mount plate you bolt through your roof into the truss (use a hammer to find the board, stud finders usually won't work, sometimes infrared will, but just use a hammer, you can hear it).

    Once the mount plates are in, you have a bunch of hardware you can bolt to the mount plates. Sometimes they clip directly to the panel, sometimes you'll have rails that you bolt to the mount plate and lock to the panels.

    There are YouTube video instructions for all the different varieties. I like the low profile ones, but they're harder to get flat (your roof probably isn't as flat as you think it should be), and having a giant specular surface just accentuates it. And they're more expensive.

    You'd probably want an electrician to install the inverters and everything. You can run the pipe for it and fish your wire through it, but with government regs, it's probably worth having the electrician do it.
