Also, we are mostly too young to have experienced the outrage generated by industrial farming, industrialized manufacturing etc., while the outrage generated by AI is right here, right now.
Yeah, and that reason is that Nvidia managed to achieve vendor lock-in with CUDA - which is not generally regarded as a good thing, but it was certainly good for Nvidia.
Pluto didn't really fit in with the other planets even before the discovery of further dwarf planets, that discovery was just the final nail in its coffin as a "proper" planet: it was the smallest planet by far, smaller even than Earth's moon, it has a highly unusual orbit (not in the ecliptic plane, so elliptical that it's sometimes closer to the Sun than Neptune - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pluto#Orbit) etc.
I’m aware, Apple and other companies donated too. What I found odd was the lengths Jensen and Nvidia went to hide the amount. Other companies came out and said how much they donated.
Ah yes, The Matrix. It kinda shows that that phrase was written in the "end-of-history" 1990s, before 9/11, Putin, Trump, and China really becoming a global player. Mankind definitely seems further away from being "united in celebration" than it was back then...
TIL what lakehouse means (a mix of "data lake" and "data warehouse" without the clarifying "data" part). Especially when mentioned in the same phrase as "garden", you tend to think of a physical house first...
As someone with not much of a "green thumb", I would rather say this lets you keep the pleasant parts of gardening (planting, harvesting and generally enjoying your plants) while automating the chore of regularly watering them.
Another cost-saving measure: 3.5" floppies couldn't be flipped, so needed heads on both sides. Actually (TIL!) the first Macs had single-sided 3.5" drives, which wasted half the capacity of the disk (not sure if there were single-sided disks too?).
