the next generation of satellites base stations that are currently going up remove the need for base stations

you’ll have similar throughout and latency direct to your phone

but since this dream has been mired by delays, the starlink base station is still convenient

lots of people that would otherwise be stationary for reliable internet can go on the road

week long festival campsites have lots of people who aren’t taking any PTO that connect to their teams during the day time, while everyone else has nonexistent cellular service solely due to the overloaded networks

I would wager that most don’t unsubscribe to starlink in between time they just increase their mobility since its suddenly practical

speaking of PTO, if they are accumulating it but now travelling and never using it then its functionally a raise, all because they keep a starlink subscription

bigger satellites will bring that to everyone

There will be such a massive shift to Qwen VL when Google shoots itself in the foot retiring Gemini 2.5 Flash just because a $1 million/yr L7 wanted to show initiative to become a $1.2 million/yr L8

I think local inference will be fast enough

There is so much happening in that scene, where tokens/sec double or 10x

So I could see the same hardware doing 20 tokens/sec on a large model suddenly doing 200 tokens/sec in the future, a better device in the future doing 500 tokens/sec, while having vision models baked in, audio models etc

Users wont consciously switch to local, they will just have it and use it

The RAM has been recycled but it has worse emissions than throwing it away and using newer RAM

> recycle pls

> not like that

this is insightful to me as well, I'm glad to know modern memory is less polluting in use but now I wonder about how it compares to the manufacturing process

I guess parasocial relationships with AI boyfriends and girlfriends don't pay as well as agentic SaaS slop

software and agentic workflows will obsolete those things

RL environments building on top of each other will get these models there

needs people doing software development lifecycles to figure it out and implement

Can I run up some memecoins on it?

Agreed but I think enterprise AI offerings are pretty impressive, investors and consumers aren’t really aware, employees aren’t able to trade

The revenue is there and also impressive, and supplanting consumer and seat based revenue

The market is still shedding SaaS multiples, which I think is accurate, but break out the revenue in those quarterly reports and there is a huge growth story, from real efficiencies

LLM’s are not good at confidence scores, even 5.5 and Fable make them up on the spot

they are good at schemas that contain specific criteria, a list of objectives that apply to the whole dataset

that then can be reduced to a fraction, 1/10, 8/10, 9/10

they didnt do that here so run the query again when your rate limit is lifted

I earn more than most doctors but am so low key that hypergamy doesn’t work which is fine but sometimes I’m into it, I’m a “mysterious source of income guy” in a fun city, which just means “has a high paying 9-5 job” but that goes over most people’s heads since I don't tell them what, and its not a tech hub where it would be both obvious and more unremarkable

Doctors that like to the play the field show up to events in their scrubs. It works. They get a lot of attention from potential mates, and I've seen some people I know completely switch character to something more seductive.

Sometimes I think I want that attention, but people remember what you do so I don't want that, I havent really struck a balance and enjoy who I do attract. It's great that they're interested in me, sometimes I hear them mention someone who is interesting because of their occupation or material wealth, and I think "I have those attributes and more, how is that not obvious". In San Francisco it would be obvious, but not here unless you do flashy things.

People that have voiced a guess have guessed I earn at 1/5th of what I do, despite the loft in a HCOL and additional place and lifestyle for my comfort, to me they are just divorced from value.

Whats more interesting is that people have pretty strong opinions about the fickle and malleable nature of attraction, but you can always play if you want
