"Collapse" isn't within the statistical distribution though, so you'd still to apply judgement in any case. I suppose it's a word with many definitions.

> "Collapse" isn't within the statistical distribution though

Uh? Maybe you could explain what you mean by this a bit more.


1. It's not a rigorously defined term.

2. "System collapse" would be unexplored territory, so how would statistical analysis be able to infer when it occurs?


1. Not really. If the crash rates we're seeing under the Trump administration are higher than any similar length period in the last ~10 years, we should start to worry.

2. See above.


I wonder if anyone has made a liquid cooling system for ipads / phones. Like, a sealed thing that seals onto the back of the device and circulates cooling water directly against the back surface.

A more whimsical method is to put the thing in a glass of water with the cord sticking out. :-)

Throw it in a Thermoplastic Polyurethane (TPU) bag and it'll be a pretty good long term solution.

As I discovered cooling down hardboiled eggs, it's better to keep a thin layer of moisture that cools the object via evaporation.

Something of this sort should keep the device moisturised:

0.2ml/s at its lowest setting looks like the ballpark of what's required to maintain temperature.


> First, in a watertight plastic bag and then in the water?

Was wondering, but this the most duct tap hacker solution!


a sandwich bag would work wonders, then you could use ice to counter the plastic's thermal inefficiencies!

I have a small portable fan that I place under it basically any time I use it for any development work. It gets thermally throttled pretty fast otherwise. It's definitely the wrong machine for my needs but it's what I gotta work with for now.


ipad pro actually preforms fairly comparably according to geekbench

You're in luck. Lots of phone manufacturers also implement liquid cooling inside the phone too.

I think the vapor chamber cooling Apple's starting to use is something like that, no?

What about submerging it in mineral oil?

Yeah, lets add more cost and complexity in a cooling system so instead of 1 token per second we get 2 tokens per second, all of the price of one graphics card that can do 50+ tokens a second.

Apple fans never cease to amaze me.

A "good voice" could become more important. I could see people doing speech and voice training. Also things like lighting, mic and camera setup, and background. Everyone is a streamer now.

A critical part of the job is to NOT say certain things, which LLMs are only just getting good at.

It can be a little touchy.hunter2

Why'd you just type a bunch of asterisks?

You all have made me realize that bash.org is no longer around. Thanks for the trip down memory lane :)

My pet peeves. One of the top 5 was fake. It had a typo in the server message.

I find even something as simple as a haircut can have a massive effect.

I suppose the publishing process has always existed as system 3. It's just that now we have a new way to read and write with an abstract "rest of the world".

Only if they paid extra at check-in.

And you specifically have to request it. It isn’t a normal option during purchase.

Nah, with how ticketing is these days they'll bug you a dozen times to choose between the $50 basic economy disaster package that only has the mask and 50% airflow or the full package for $100 that includes another 25% airflow and a flotation device. Business execute gets you the parachute, a private life raft, and a few days of MREs for $250.

I assume it's about blasting others with noise, not company sponsored headphones.

A disinforming clickbait headline strikes again. This isn't about it being mandatory to use headphones, ala TNG "The Game". Rather it's about using speakers that broadcast sound for everyone to "enjoy". I haven't been molested and crushed^w^w^w^wflown in quite some time, but with the noise floor on airplanes being so high to begin with I'd imagine the result is much worse than somewhere that is at least quieter to start.
