2 miles of power line? 11k ft of line? For 100-250k$? About $10-23/ft?

Sounds about right. I’m guessing the land was far from the right of way. And a little bit off road.


Probably needed a transformer off a medium voltage distribution line too.

It would also likely have some expensive maintenance at times.


What are your thoughts about using natural semantic language to achieve edits to a picture? As users of technical software, we have absorbed an entire science and work model behind the things we do. Before now, I found it impossible to replicate that kind of precision with AI generated images. But it seems like it is possible with natural language prompting, which makes this more accessible to layman users. But what can more advanced users accomplish? Is there a more technical prompting that can be given?

No. I am guessing that this is only a commitment and they will waver on committing.

However there are certain advantages like supply chain that only established companies would have access to. This is also a commitment to spend upto 100B on internal approach and research. I would expect them to come up with their own cpu chip and device design. This will shift the focus to an internal approach. And might make amazon give better prices later down the line


Yii frameworks were full of that jargon.

I had a hard time learning the whole mvc concept


Profanity doesn't have power over a person. They have a lack of eloquence and a laziness in language. It demonstrates indiscipline and thoughtlessness. And it conjures the wrong kinds of images in the head. Separating yourself from it is a sign of sophistication. And you want to be more sophisticated over time. And you want to be around sophisticated people as well.

> Then I entered the military and very quickly cursing became deeply ingrained in my speech

Same. Never cursed before military. But military stress combined with surrounding fellows cursing made it difficult to filter it out from my own language.


> The Meta-NFS device concentrates microwave energy into a zone smaller than 200 micrometers, about the width of a human hair, enabling electronics to be printed onto bone, tissue, and living plants

> The Meta-NFS works by heating from within the deposited material itself. A conventional transmission-line microwave applicator

I can't think of any sci-fi plot that anticipated this. Heating a material from within to apply on to sensitive mediums like skin tissue potentially opening applications that go beyond nano-suit imaginations.


Please also especially clarify that IDs of contributors will be public. Meh is good, but this was a bit too simple.

There is a way to mitigate this. Re-hash and cache the page to be meta-less for public URLs. I guess that requires a huge amount of coding for a team that has not built the product from the ground up. But I feel like a "copy and paste" could fix that (remove author data).


Think of it as a product similar to Thunderbird, emailing/chatting with a computer instead of a person. But I agree the name should have been sufficiently different. Thunderbolt would have been a great name for an email server.

IANAL. Emailing with an attorney would encapsulate the emailer, email service, any software, and the recipient under attorney client privilege.

If the claude chat log / agent was shared with the attorney, then even the use of the claude chat would be encapsulated under attorney client privilege
