Depends on the phone, I have trouble fitting models into memory on my iPhone 13 before iOS kills the app. I imagine newer phones with more RAM don’t have this issue especially with some new flagship phones having 16+ GB of memory

I’ve always heard this term in use from a defense contractor

Maybe you could also have ChatGPT book a hotel for you too at that point

Yeah one example is you can’t run Altium on macOS. You can run eagle which is similar but not the same thing as altium and has no compatibility with it.

By accepting the grant they are giving themselves a legal responsibility to “not do DEI” where the government arbitrarily decides what DEI is. Even something like employing a trans software engineer or talking about the impact Python is having in POC communities could be considered reason to go after PSF legally or rescind the grant. It’s just not worth the risk for the reward.

There are other factors that stop the kind of life we see on earth from appearing earlier in the universe’s history. For example the first stars (the pure hydrogen ones) could not have had planets that supported life and they burned too hot and quick to reasonably do so.

Yep so life on earth evolved about as early as reasonably possible.

The universe is huge, if intelligent life exists outside the local group we have basically 0 way of being able to contact it, let alone visit it.

From what I’ve heard it’s completely plausible for pre industrial human civilizations to have existed and been wiped out in the past but anything past that point would leave things like heavy metals we could detect in the geological record.

Not necessarily, from what I heard humanity being alone is actually an extremely plausible solution to the Fermi paradox because we exist close to the beginning of the total lifespan of the universe.

Not being able to move faster than c is a pretty hard limit on everything in the universe. Unless our model of physics, the same one that predicted gravitational waves, black holes, time dilation, gravitational lending, etc. correctly is so fundamentally wrong that FTL travel is possible without things that probably don’t exist like negative mass aliens would need to spend at least decades to get to and from Earth. Frankly we’re not that important.

It’s pretty reasonable to share iPads and Macs between people, especially people who can’t afford individual devices for everyone separately. If I bought a VR headset for $3500 anyone being able to use it would be extremely useful

Cloudflare isn't required to host your site because you pay them money. Unless that changes, I don't see how they're in the wrong here.
