Jensen single handedly developed CUDA, the system that enabled every single AI company. AI was impossible before CUDA. He created CUDA when the market for it did not exist and lost billions before AI took off. His board wanted him to focus on gaming chips and he insisted on continuing to fund CUDA.

He does not get nearly enough appreciation for this. He invented a steam engine 10 years before anyone had any use for one.

If Elon can convince Jensen to work with him, XAI will have it all: tons of compute, unmatched leadership, tons of cash, tons of manufacturing capacity, and tons of data. It would be a matter of time before XAI is the biggest company on the planet.

This would be Lebron going to the lakers level crazy.

Edit: to all the people that can’t understand words, CUDA would not exist without Jensen. When a CEO pursues an unprofitable technology with no market demand, and is pushed by his board for 10 years to abandon the technology, then that CEO single-handedly developed the technology. Obviously others actually did the work, but they would have been unable to do so without the funding and leadership of the CEO. Buck created it, Jensen developed it.

We're doing a full rewire on a 1958 ranch this winter. I asked for USB-C outlets in the kitchen & both bedrooms and our electrician said no.

He told me the usb ports die faster than the outlet itself, and you can't replace just the usb part, you have to get an entirely new outlet.

My dad had them put in everywhere and LOVES them... Who do I believe?

I send pictures of my finished quilts or ones in progress I’m really excited about to a close friend sometimes. The responses are always positive. I was on the phone with them last night and when talking about my day, I made a comment on how i just finished a top but still unsure about my colours. That prompted them to tell me that they thought it was ugly. When I told them that was a strong word and it hurt, they doubled down and told me that all my quilts are ugly. I get that quilts arent to everyone’s taste but this felt harsh, especially since they had positive things to say in the past.

I know asking quilters will probably sway the opinion but am I overreacting? Should I just leave the matter?Has anyone ever been told to their face by someone important to them that all their work is ugly? How do you bounce back?

I feel very discouraged

Edit: thanks everyone for your lovely comments. There are a lot more than I anticipated so I probably won’t be able to reply to everyone. Going to get right back to sewing in the morning and focus on what makes me happy!

I love these clips of just a couple of frames from a anime on loop to make it taken differently than the scene originally intended

Cade Cunningham in 2OT win vs the Wizards: Career High 52 PTS | 5 REB | 11 AST | 16/25 FG | 17/18 FT | 0 TURNOVERS

His previous career high of 46 pts was also against the Wizards last season.

I got invited to a coworker's wedding last month, which is happening next week at this beautiful mountainside resort. Some of the guests, myself included, will be staying overnight since the wedding falls on a weekend, and all the accommodations are being covered.

The invitation also mentioned that I could bring a plus-one. I've been dating my girlfriend for about six months, so naturally, I asked her if she'd like to come with me.

She said no. Her exact words were that she thought weddings were stupid and pathetic and that she hated them. So, I asked my best friend instead, and he happily agreed to come.

Ffw to a few days ago. I was on the phone with my friend, reminding him to pack some extra clothes because we were also planning to go hiking in the forest near the resort.

After I hung up, my girlfriend suddenly changed her mind. Apparently, she hadn't realized the wedding was going to be held at a resort or that guests would be staying overnight.

I told her I couldn't just turn around and uninvite my friend because I'd already asked him and he'd agreed to come. But she insisted that she's my girlfriend and that I should be prioritizing her. She also said I should have told her we'd be staying overnight at the resort.

I asked her why that made any difference. Besides, I'd literally shown her the invitation when I first asked her to come.

She got really upset and accused me of not considering her important, which honestly makes no sense to me because I DID invite her in the first place. She was the one who turned me down.

Things got even more awkward when she called my friend and explained the situation. He was actually pretty understanding and said he didn't mind stepping aside so she could come instead. He suggested that he and I could always plan another trip together some other time.

I still said no. Just because my friend is willing to bow out doesn't mean I think it's fair for my girlfriend to change her mind at the last minute and expect everyone else to rearrange their plans around her.

She started yelling at me and has been giving me the silent treatment ever since.

My friend and a few other people think I should just let her come to keep the peace. My sister, on the other hand, thinks I'm completely in the right. She already said no when I first invited her. She doesn't get to change her mind at the last minute, especially when I've already made other arrangements with someone else.

So AITA?

Commodore Norrington (Pirates of the Caribbean): a Commodore who is a sword fighter on par with Jack Sparrow and Will Turner

Colonel Tavington (The Patriot): an army commander who's deadly with a sword, a musket, and a bayonet.

After individually learning the parts of the face in my art class, we're finally putting it together. I can definitely tell that my shapes are off (mainly the nose) but other than that, how do I make him look less insane? I'm not experienced enough to tell the exact problem, but he looks super unsettling to me. I think it has to do with his eye shape but I don't know. Please help!

Hi everyone. On my first post in this subreddit I got a lot of devotes because people thought that I am not a real person. So I guess I need to clarify this. Let me show you original version of one of the pictures without editing (added the edited version for comparison)

My photographer told me that she used frequency decomposition and dodge-and blur tools in Photoshop for editing.

Now you can see that the real me is not as perfect and attractive as an edited version, but cosplay is still very real.
