But, datacenter development in space does not deal with local NIMBYs, just centralized decision-makers that are easier to "influence".

The NIMBYs are coming for space launch sites, too.

That particular concern is currently covered as far as SpaceX is concerned since it launches under DoD coverage. See the California Coastal Commission and the fact that they had to apologize etc. for attempted overreach.

Gives new meaning to "gut intuition", since the superparamagnetic macrophages are in the liver.

My CEO did a deep dive into AI prototyping and eventually ran into a wall with data architecture and deployment. Fortunately, he realized very quickly that having human designed core infrastructure is what enables vibe coding that doesn't run off the rails.

Your CEO has more wisdom than most on this topic.

If all CEOs were as reasonable, there would be no AI bubble. Working in tech constantly means checking what's new and if you can wait it out or risk being left behind. That requires wisdom, but many CEOs seem driven by FOMO.

It doesn't help FOMO that scaling the executive ladder also means progressively staying behind in technical skills to stay ahead in managing skills. It's awesome that your CEO has managed to keep his fangs sharp enough.

I've been observing something which sounds very similar.

Everyone is going to learn this eventually. They can learn it the easy way or the hard way.

Your username is uncanny for this comment. Well played.

The fact that you aren't persuaded is the evidence of collapse. Previous generations of LLMs persuaded everyone of anything.

No, that's just hedonic adaptation of humans, not evidence of model collapse.

I'm a non-Conformist is the historic sense. In the past decades, American Christianity has devolved into a smorgasbord of personality cults and group therapy that effectively suppresses the freedoms that many Christians fought for at the country's founding. Not usually overtly, but the prison is in the mind (or its lack of use).

Do you know if any of these multi-stage approaches can run on an 8gb M1 Air?

They should! If you take Parakeet (ASR), add Qwen 3.5 0.8B (LLM) and Kokoro 82M (TTS), that's about 1.2G + 1.6G + 164M so ~3.5GB (with overhead) on FP16. If you use INT8 or 4-bit versions then are getting down to 1.5-2GB RAM.

And you can always for example swap out the LLM for GPT-5 or Claude.

This explains the Scotch-Irish settling in Appalachia. It felt like home, but without the overbearing Brits nearby.

A lot also settled in the farmlands of Western Kentucky and brought sheep farming along with them, which is how it emerged as a very intense (mutton, pork, chicken, beef) bbq region.

Wait, where is BBQ mutton a thing?? I need a specific location for Waze, stat!

Owensboro has the best Old Hickory is the place you want, but there's also like a week of bbq festival every year with dozens and dozens of cooking teams. You'll find pockets of bbq in Madisonville, Lexington, Louisville, etc.

The mutton and chicken and pork is long cooked, low and slow, over hickory wood, and the baste and sauce has a lot of vinegar in it that breaks down the tough meat and makes it super tender. It's not spicy like the US west or southwest, and doesn't have all the sugar that Kansas City bbq does.

It is very, very good.

Also, burgoo soup!

Pretty much the whole of the Middle East, and consequently most of Glasgow following the various diasporas.

There used to be a place on Allison Street that did a kind of mutton liver and spinach stew with fenugreek and green chillis that I am currently right at this moment prepared to drive a 12-hour round trip to buy.

surely you mean overbearing English, old man?

No, we just found Nicola sturgeon’s hacker news account

Ya, the Scotch-Irish were the Brits doing the overbearing in Ireland.

Let’s also not forget that the Irish lords that the Anglo-Irish supplanted were themselves the descendants of Normans.

This is incorrect. It was the Britons that were ruled by saxons and then normans, not the Irish (until the invasion we’re talking about obviously).

No, they weren't, not in a meaningful way.

Appalachian Fae, mysterious lights, all the stories. Love it.

On the island of Ireland those people _are_ the overbearing Brits.

The English were in there centuries before them.

Scotland and Ireland were exchanging population for millennia because they are physically close. As soon as England got involved, trouble began.

The Readme for a UI library benefits enormously from screenshots, even terminal based UIs.

I second that, even better would be if every type chart would be a folder, with a readme containing a screenshot and the code example. That would be top notch.

PS: looks great on the surface!

Next updates will include better docs and many screenshots/examples, thanks!

Screenshots added for all widgets :) Flex layouts were added too!
