Title sounds like it's official but article says it's "reportedly"


nVidia did just buy a stake in Intel, so it's not surprising they would shift chip production.


> my dashboard page didn't load, then it told me there are no open tickets in the system, then clicking on a different ticket number to open it didn't do anything, and then the server stopped responding.

Like all SaaS in-house implementations, this is entirely on how your company's ServiceNow developers.

I've worked on multiple SNOW implementations and things can go really bad when you go crazy with the customizations.


Your comment makes me understand the product even less. So it’s SaaS where you have to develop it yourself? What exactly is the company providing? Why do its customers simultaneously want to outsource this to a vendor and then spend resources customizing it down to the level of “basic CRUD operations work” and “the user sees a search field”?


ServiceNow is a platform-as-a-service (PaaS), not a SaaS, that allows development of new products on top of it.

At its core, there is a workflow management engine that third parties can use to implement their own, stateful, process centric products and services.

We have ServiceNow proper (the CRM) and a completely unrelated to CRM third party product that we have purchased and which is implemented on the ServiceNow platform. Both have nothing to do with each other and are used by different business users.


You don't develop it, you develop on it. SN provides the underlying software, implementations, hosting, upgrades, etc. Salesforce is another example of this.


And that wasn't really AI, it was more like automation.

Was hoping the article would be about stadium experiences like the announcer, jumbotron, etc. all being AI-driven. When I judge the experience of gameday, concessions are like third on that list. Disappointed with the content.


At least they added a photo of him and his pall Greg


> I wish someone would explain the Anglo obsession with daily sunscreen routine.

Because it's more about skincare for physical attraction and less about the cancer. Sun ages your skin with wrinkles, sagging, hyperpigmentation, etc.

This isn't specific to Anglo nations too. Any country where being "fair skinned" is more desirable will have lots of demand for sunscreen.


The whole point of the game and genre is the exploration. A guide kinda defeats that.

If you don't like the backtracking (I hated it), then the game is probably not for you.


I mostly agree, and would say you should just play it blind. If you care about getting 100% (112% after the DLC) there are probably a couple of things where looking them up would be useful. It is also a very big world, so trying to do cleanup once you have all exploration tools can be quite involved


What a weird comment. The whole point of any game is to have fun.

If someone enjoys playing a game with a guide, what's the problem exactly ?


How do you know if you enjoy playing the game without a guide if you don't do it? Looking something up to unstuck yourself is one thing, but following a guide from beginning to end is robbing yourself of the opportunity to enjoy the game as presented.

"beating the game as quickly as possible" is such an obviously flawed reason to use a guide that I won't even respond to it. If you don't have the time to play the game, don't.


It's the thing about type I fun and type II fun, where type I is "fun while it's happening" and type II is "not fun while it's happening but fun in retrospect": if you don't use a guide, the type II fun that results may be greater in quality and impact than the type I fun you'd get using a guide


I think a better rephrasing is "government is giving $8.9B from the CHIPS act in exchange for a 10% stake in the company"


Depends on who you ask. Trump himself seems to think the US is getting 10% for free. I think that's a fair assessment given that these grants were already supposed to be paid out to Intel, without any kind of equity stake promised.

Worth noting that Intel is the only company that had these kinds of shenanigans pulled with their grant. Samsung, TSMC, Micron and others were granted similar funds without any kind of withholding or demands for equity from the federal government.


> Worth noting that Intel is the only company that had these kinds of shenanigans pulled with their grant.

Sure, but Intel's new CEO is making a lot of noise that indicates that Intel is maybe not going to be able/willing to build some-to-many of the things the CHIPS money paid for.

Giving FedGov a 10% stake in the company [0] is better than taking the money back for nonperformance, wouldn't you say?

[0] Which -as I understand it- was the sort of thing that was done for those finance companies that were Too Big To Fail when all that fraud^W novel financial engineering eventually caught up to them.


> Worth noting that Intel is the only company that had these kinds of shenanigans pulled with their grant.

So far...


Trump feels Biden gave intel billions for nothing. Trump feels he’s balanced the scales by getting 10% of Intel. Trump gets to spin it as getting 10% of Intel for nothing.

Win win for Trump.


  > Depends on who you ask. Trump himself seems to think the US is getting 10% for free.
I don't think anything is ever free, and I think that Donald Trump the businessman knows that better than I do.


Getting stock in exchange of grants makes more sense than "pure" grants.

This stock can later be sold, to benefit the taxpayer.


that's not a grant. That's just buying stocks.


It's effectively a grant. The US government isn't buying existing shares. Intel is issuing new shares and selling them to the US government - so actual money is being transferred to Intel (and existing shares are being diluted as a result).


That's just buying stocks (at-the-market offering).


Nope.

When I buy stocks at market price, the company gets none of my money.

When the company issues new stocks and sells them, the company gets the money.


I think you're maybe unfamiliar with what an ATM offering is; try googling it.


Fair point. The key issue in the thread, which I think we both agree on, is that yes, the government is giving money to Intel.


Anybody have an idea of how much these people are making?


Minimum wage in California is $16.50 per hour, so they are making that at least.


Altman said on a recent podcast that Zuckerberg is poaching OpenAI researchers, giving offers of up to $100,000,000 (one hundred million).


Many worrisome aspects with this in terms of smelling like a super bubble.

Even being bullish on LLMs, it is not obvious this is the right paradigm even for AGI let alone something beyond AGI.

Seems like it could be 10 years from now "Remember during the peak of the bubble when Zuckerberg was paying researchers 100 million dollars to try to make a super humanoid robot out of just a mouth?"


Well, if it's at a venue, they have to rent it out.


In times past, we used to have things like clubs and user groups. For the most part, they held open meetings. Anyone could attend without commitment. These meeting not only served the interests of members and the community, but they also served to engage people who would become members. Members paid dues. Dues paid the bills.

If it was a community based organization (ham radio, open source developers, etc.) and the membership worked out outreach, you could usually find someone who would provide a meeting space. Perhaps it would be at a local business. Perhaps it would be at a local university. Perhaps it would be at a local community centre or library. Even if you did have to pay for the space, there were typically a lot of inexpensive spaces to rent for an hour or two. But the key word is community based. There was always a surplus of space if you knew where to look and who to ask. Some people were willing to donate it and others were willing to let it be used for a nominal fee.

That seemed to change 10 or 20 years ago. I'm not quite sure as to the reason why.


How about just going to a public library? Perhaps with a friend or two as accountability partners for keeping off the phone?


> users don't seem to care in those subs, it seems.

Have there been any big subreddits that protested, opened and asked the users for feedback, then closed again?

Seems once they asked the users, the users voted to open back up.

What subs have voted to open up?


r/NBATalk is trying to replace r/NBA (r/NBAdiscussion will probably grow too)

Haven't seen a decent sized one for r/NFL though
