mircea_popescu: which was a great run, a point that'll be made obvious by the anger of all the hanger-ons once itstops
mircea_popescu: point being, the trillions needed for 10nm and beyond aren't forthcoming and that's the end of this run.
mircea_popescu: there's that big bitch in there. ~economically~. the cost for 10nm is alreadyu not covered by the density benefits
mircea_popescu: decimation look at it this way : 14nm was demonstrated in memories cca 2005, intel shipped it in 2015.

mircea_popescu: more of a 90s thing, record label as master of payola.
mircea_popescu: not the market. you're a record label for having 100 singer-songrwiters, that'll make whatever shit, not for having 100mn customers who'll buy whatever you put out.
mircea_popescu: the very strange thing here is that he somehow thinks the "releases" are the problem record labels solve.
mircea_popescu: lbum by Young Boy Hybrid. Currently Collective Conscious Records has eighteen releases available and we have several more on the way this year."
mircea_popescu: "I started the record label because I wasn’t happy with any of the offers i got from other record labels. It’s a way I can release my own stuff on my own terms. After the first couple releases people started getting interested in the label. I’ve even started working out deals with some artists. I recently released a few tracks with Lonnie Dangerous and Collective Conscious Records is getting ready to release an a

mircea_popescu: "Labels: creativity, Psychology, yudkowsky". lol. why ?!
mircea_popescu: it gets worse, there's entire swaths of particles that are mirrored, you'll never know if you've got various pairs right or backwards.
mircea_popescu: decimation i don't think anyone seriously considers that entire "simulation as life" thing outside of fiction.
mircea_popescu: How do I know I'm the real deal instead of a crazed nutter? Because I tend to elicit the 'damn, that's so obvious now' reaction from people who elicit that same reaction from people like you.
mircea_popescu: "It annoys me that idiots continue to use "oh wow, that's so amazing" as the measure of creative genius. Or even worse, that they rely on society's direction to determine who is a creative genius and who isn't. First of all, creative geniuses are RESPECTED and LOOKED UP TO by society. And any position that is looked up to will be coveted by Narcissists who are driven by Glory, such as Richard Feynman who all his life w
