Also, I wish there was a setting to disable ChatGPT in its system prompt to have access to my name and location. There was a study on an LLM(s) (not image gen) a couple of years ago (I can't find the study now) which showed that an unfiltered OSS version had racist views towards certain diasporas.
> Our stock price will move capriciously, occasionally falling 50% or so as has happened three times in 60 years under present management. Don’t despair; America will come back and so will Berkshire shares.
The part about the clock chip using the frequency of the AC power source as a clock source is pretty nifty, but then +-14 minutes/day of inaccuracy (+-2%) as the article mentions, is pretty off.
> the wafers are ludicrously high revenue/margin products.
Agree except this point, as at least for MCUs which are of US origin and yet cost ~$1 per chip which also includes reel packaging and distribution margins etc.
41% [1] of S&P500 companies' (~Top 500 US stocks index which for example doesn't include TSMC, as it's only for US-listed companies) revenue comes from outside of the US. So really, people are buying into global companies when they're buying the S&P500.
The part about complex numbers needs some intuition to build. This comes up in linear algebra in very relevant ways too, for example in 3D computer graphics calculations.
This is just my 2 cents, but I don’t have an intuition built for complex numbers.
