Forget the Crypto Bros. Wall Street Is Driving the New Crypto Boom

gizmodo.com Luc Olinga 2025-11-27 06:38:24

The crypto market is on fire again, but this time, the fuel isn’t coming from “crypto bros” on social media. It’s coming from Wall Street, and it’s all based on a massive bet that the Federal Reserve is about to cut interest rates. Ether, the second-largest cryptocurrency, is leading the charge, surging nearly 10% in the past 24 hours to $4,723.26, bringing its all-time high of $4,878.26 within sight. This rally is, according to some market observers, a calculated move by large, institutional i

In addition to reasoning, we aimed to assess how effectively models make decisions when presented with judgment calls—such as choosing between making an educated guess based on available clues or calling a function to retri

So what's the difference between plotted and printed artwork?

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2025-11-27 16:06:29

Pen plotters are somewhat like 3D printers. They move in X/Y space and typically have a pen lift mechanism. Attached to their arm can be any number of drawing instruments, from pens to pencils, brushes to pastels, and even drill bits to scratch glass. Printers (we'll focus on inkjet for this article) blast tiny ink particles into paper and can seamlessly mix them to create a range of visually distinct hues and tones. In the art world, they're commonly used to make Giclée prints, which are essen

NeoLogic wants to build more energy-efficient CPUs for AI data centers
