Honestly, the past few months I haven't been getting a lot of responses back from all the job applications I put in. This all started changing with one simple rule -- Simply ignore everyone with an Indian first or last name. After doing this not even a week passed and someone responded and got me to round 2 with the hiring manager, now just waiting to hear back. Not even a recruiter but someone from the company directly. Pretty much anyone I talk to ends up being white for some reason.

A few days ago, something really interesting happened: For the first time, an AI generated a mathematical proof that was not yet known: https://www.erdosproblems.com/728

In most cases where this has happened, it was later discovered that a solution already existed in the literature, but this problem had been formulated incorrectly and was only corrected a few months ago, which means there was no prior literature on it.

Sometimes of you say that AI will be limited by "not being able to create new things," but I think this case shows that it's not quite like that at all, and that most people are still underestimating AIs.

Humans and animals have the ability generate knowledge on their own from interacting with the world, and from the physical structure of their being. Like math, which exists in animals that don't even have the ability to acquire knowledge in any other way. In other words, humans and animals have intelligence.

AI does not generate knowledge on its own and cannot do so, only copying things that other people have written down. As it is unable to naturally generate knowledge, it does not even know these things that it copies, as even copying requires genesis of knowledge. In other words, it does not have intelligence.

>>Low energy density doesn't matter in grid and home applications.
Most batteries are not used in grid or home applications: you plug shit into a socket.
Energy density matters for portable devices which is where lithium batteries are used. Even for example a cordless drill that's mostly used "at home" still needs reasonable energy density because nobody will lug around a 1kg battery on their "handheld drill". Electrical devices are either mains-powered or need to be portable and therefore have dense batteries.

Maybe the only exception is literal grid energy storage but they already use shit like gravity batteries on hydroelectric dams, which have infinity cycles and are better, cheaper, simpler and more durable than any chemical battery at that scale.

>>107833854
Obviously I don't mean cordless drills when I say grid and home applications. Everything you said about energy density on handhelds is true, I agree. You need high density batteries to make these things worthwhile. I still remember nicad makitas; feels bad man.
You slap some solar on a roof, and hook up a stack of nickel irons in a shed and you can relatively cheaply and sustainably get a week of emergency power or stack more and you become the grid selling watts to your neighbors at peak hours.
In the same way that lithium density made handhelds viable, cheap on site storage makes solar viable.

There's a billion retards that can cobble up trash in a matter of hours. Do you think you're special? You're so unremarkable and unoriginal that you're trying to outsource even the easiest part - the idea.
Rich cunts don't want anything made and maintained by a single person. You don't have the capacity to offer support and you don't have resources to get access some kind of specialized resources that would offer something others can't and distinguish your product from the competition. They will always go with a 24/7 support service from an established tested source.
Maybe try to have an even narrower potential client base? Write something for bezos alone, I'm sure that's gonna work out.

Original ideas often fail because markets reward familiarity and scalability. Novelty doesn't pay.

No, because vanilla ReactOS has a kernel that tries to be compatible with Windows, but it's developed by too small of a team and they're trying to build compatibility for 30 year old versions of Windows.
Using the Linux kernel avoids all that. If your hardware is supported on Linux, it works perfectly. ReactOS is just WINE, you're just running WINE on Linux like Proton.

Butting in. I would say NT is probably the most appealing part of Windows.
Win32 is great for the compatibility is affords, but I don't think most people would say the API itself is the draw here, more than the library of existing software is the appeal of Win32. Kind of indirect value, or like incidental rather than intentional. Not that the API is horrible, but I know enough people complain about its verbosity and explicitness, which is how it ends up getting those portability guarantees.

What I'm saying is that kernel versus kernel I think most people would prefer to use NT if it were open source / an option for them over Linux, so Win32 on top of Linux isn't much of a boon. Kind of like when people port GNU to other kernels, but the opposite sentiment. it's not like most people have some grand affinity for the GNU core utils, so ports of it to some other kernel aren't that interesting (to some).

The Linux kernel isn't a big draw with its inherently dated design. They keep trying to bolt modern concepts on it from other systems, but then most developers seem to target portable POSIX standards anyway. Where in Win32 and NT, you can quite easily accommodate various versions of your APIs. I've noticed that in the BSD and SunOS kernels too, but I see a lot of Linux users complaining about breakages that annoy them. And even in my own experience the APIs really prove what they are, a first attempt at a modern operating system. A first attempt. That we have been stuck with for more than half a century now, while younger systems like NT come into existence and can take the same approach of learning from other systems, but had the benefit of incorporating them into the foundation of a brand new system. Retaining legacy compliance without compromising on the new parts. I find macOS to be somewhat simillar with XNU, the way they're retained POSIX compat is useful for them but their encouragement to use their modern mach based stuff, has done well.
