  • Because you don’t train your self-hosted LLM.
    As a result you only pay for the electricity of computing your tokens (your request), this can be especially reasonable if the same machine also does local game streaming and or transcoding, and thus already has the requirements to host a LLM.

    If you don’t have rather unreasonable means, your local LLM is just very much more limited in parameters (size), and will not be as good as other, much larger models.

    Privacy, Ethics and personal interest usually are the largest drivers from what I can tell.




  • Releasing a single image after legal cleared it, is completely different from not doing enough for anyone with a camera renting a helicopter to take snapshots of whatever is left.

    from memory I think it’s for example combustion chamber / injector design which is the crux here, none of that is visible, but could be from different angles.




  • Yes, the US Government is locked into many monopolies, especially for highly specialized items.
    That doesn’t make one more better at all though.
    I disagree with his second point. We’ve seen for years now, that when companies act like monopolists, they become a successful monopoly. There is very little checks and balances here. Yeah, they risk antitrust actions, but those happen so incredibly rarely.
    And in so far as competition, investment heavy industry like this needs billions in startup capital. Very few, if any, are going to get that.







  • Seems reasonable for all involved imho.

    Yes, Texas Parks and Recreation Wildlife should take time to think about the offer. Document the reasons why they take it etc. Nobody would want Protected wetland to be swapped for a Parking lot that nobody has the money to demolish to return to nature, or any suspicion of anything like it.

    SpaceX is not going to withdraw the offer anyway, they can take the time, the Land up north is worth much less to SpaceX than the one adjacent to their Spaceport.
