Comment Re:Hahaha, wait for Tesla Dojo (Score 1) 18

will be a exponential step up, by polynomial orders of magnitude because no one is as smart as Elon

“Frankly if they could deliver us enough GPUs, we might not need Dojo,” Musk told analysts on Wednesday during Tesla’s Q2 earnings call. “But they can’t, because they have got so many customers.”

In October, Musk said he wasn’t even sure his latest project would prove itself superior to buying Nvidia chips off the shelf—unusual given he typically demands the best from his team. Instead he was full of praise of Huang and thanked the company for prioritize some of its orders.

“We’ll actually take Nvidia hardware as fast as Nvidia will deliver it to us,” he said yesterday.

Tesla has a voracious demand for A.I. chips that seemingly outstrips virtually any commercial competitor. It aims to reach an in-house compute capability of 100 exaFLOPS (an extremely high level of supercomputer performance) by the end of next year, a truly staggering figure that would ensconce it easily among the global top five providers known currently, according to the company.

Huh, Teslas in a Tunnel? Wasn't this Hyperloop thing supposed to be a Vactrain, straight out of a SciFi novel, operating in a near frictionless low-pressure tunnel system?

costs more money for trains and maintenance is harder,
their main focus is improving the boring speed and lowering the cost of tunneling
trains would add few $100m to the price tag

Show me the rules of engagement that justify engaging that van rescuing wounded?

"Common let us shoot!"
"Common pick up a weapon."
"Oh look at that right through the windshield.. haha"
"Guy just drove over a body... haha"
"It's their fault for bringin' their kids to a battle."

Maybe your fault for bringing the battle to their kids?
Justify killing much?

Sounds like trigger-happy rednecks looking for excuses to kill people and enjoying it when they get the chance.

Those soldiers exhibited very little self-control and failed to follow the rules of engagement. They should be discharged at the least.

They certainly had time to investigate further and err on the side of not randomly killing people.
