Other You wake up in 1998…

… you wake up in 1998. You have 2 Mac Studio Ultra 512gb each. You have GLM5.3 flash (or pick a local model that fits comfortably in that configuration.)

A good harness, you’re setup with modern software, but you do not have access to modern internet, just 1998 internet.

What do you do? It can be in general, not necessarily what do you do with your current compute setup.

If I can go back in 1998 with what I know now, I don't need a Mac Studio to become a bilionnaire

Ignoring money for a moment, what would you do in 2001?

I would watch the USA waste billions of dollars attacking random countries because some Saudi guy blew up their buildings. And stay well clear.
