AI Markets Have Crystalized AI markets have evolved significantly over the last 4 years. When GPT-3 came out and scaling laws were openly discussed in the AI literature, it seemed clear that you could extrapolate the rate of progress from GPT-2 to GPT-3 onwards through GPT-4, 5 etc and realize a revolution was going to happen. 4 years ago, I started looking for Generative AI companies to back or help start given this curve.

In 1633, Galileo Galilei stood before the Inquisition, not for inventing a radical new theory, but for proposing a straightforward idea: that the Earth moves around the Sun. This wasn’t even a new suggestion—Greek astronomers like Aristarchus had floated the heliocentric model centuries earlier. But in Galileo’s time, the idea ran into an insurmountable obstacle.

Zach Cregger’s Mysterious New Horror Movie ‘Weapons’ Has Critics Raving

gizmodo.com Germain Lussier 2026-02-22 05:41:05

Coming off a movie as insane and surprising as Barbarian, writer-director Zach Cregger certainly knew his next movie would carry massive expectations. That movie, called Weapons, is now almost here. And, based on the first reactions, he may have just blown those expectations away. Cregger wrote and directed the film, which stars Julia Garner (Ozark, Fantastic Four: First Steps) as a teacher who walks into school one day to find almost her entire class has gone missing.

Most prepared meals either arrive frozen or can be frozen after unboxing. That means it's less of an issue if you order too many meals on your first go around. Most services allow you to change the number of meals or servings in your plan even after you've started. With almost every service, the more meals or servings you order per delivery, the cheaper it becomes per meal. You'll want to decide exactly how much food makes sense for your household.

Google TV Streamer vs Chromecast with Google TV: Should you upgrade?

I immediately imagined applications in desktop manufacturing, a subject very dear to my heart. You can buy it from Adafruit, Sparkfun, and elsewhere.
