I’m not so sure we’re missing that much personally, I think it’s more just sheer scale, as well as the complexity of the input and output connections (I guess unlike machine learning networks, living things tend to have a much more ‘fuzzy’ sense of inputs and outputs). And of course sheer computational speed; our virtual networks are basically at a standstill compared to the paralellism of a real brain.
Just my thoughts though!
While true that the x nm nomenclature doesn’t match physical feature size anymore, it’s definitely not just marketing bs. The process nodes are very significant and very (very) challenging technological steps, that yield power efficiency gains in the dozens of % usually.
To me, what is surprising is that people refuse to see the similarity between how our brains work and how neural networks work. I mean, it’s in the name. We are fundamentally the same, just on different scales. I belive we work exactly like that, but with way more inputs and outputs and way deeper network, but fundamental principles i think are the same.
Same for me. As long as opening Relay brings me to reddit, it’s hard to stop using it. But once that stops, or becomes ad ridden or whatever, there’s no way in hell I will install the official reddit app or anything like that, and I hate using a browser on mobile so not doing that either… So yeah. That’ll be it for me. So far Beehaw/lemmy is shaping up to replace it though.
Many laptops/ultrabooks have easily accessible batteries nowadays, any specific example when you mean sealed up?
These are all things that most phones already do, though. I think a realistic expectation of battery lifetime is needed here. Better allow for easier replacement in my opinion, the batteries themselves are not expensive (though we don’t want to generate unnecessary waste, so, of course we try to make them last as long as feasible)
Bvckup (not a typo)
Made by a little Swiss company, extremely light but very competent. Stays completely out of your way unless it absolutely must get your attention (which is usually never).
I think it’s paid only but it’s very reasonable. Works great in intermittent situations, I. E. It won’t blow up if it tries to run a scheduled backup and the source or target is disconnected etc… Works very well for me for a decade.
