🤔 So, some guy who admits he has zero experience with AI 🤖 is now an expert on how #OpenAI and #Anthropic might be burning money faster than a pyromaniac at a bonfire. 🔥 But fear not, his "napkin math" 📝 is here to save the day, because, you know, doodles in the margins have never led anyone astray! 🌟

🚀 Behold the Napkin Math #Tool, where the universe is reduced to a series of napkin scribbles, dividing humanity into laughably vague categories. 🤔 From "individual person" to "Facebook users," this revolutionary tool promises to change the way you pretend to understand anything. 📊 Because who needs precision when you have a napkin and some numbers? 🤦‍♂️

although it didn’t seem logical to me, suspected it was pancreatic cancer based on region of inquiry

My dad & my uncle at 72 rare form & 75 common form respectively, died of pancreatic cancer 6 months to the day from each other

It was not pretty & 8-12 months from Dx to death

They however survived the🇰🇷🇰🇵war. My dad told me they would powder the kids in DDT head to toe to de-louse😱. My dad’s diet was veritable hippie-esque vs my uncle who ate🍰🐄& drank Diet Coke for decades

Charles OTOH lived a lifelong life of privilege & is known for his organic food farming practices etc plus his elders lived to nearly 100..

-25 to -30 years off predicted lifespan is what we estimated 2 years ago #napkinMath

If they had data missing from NY… probably also from other places too

Recall myself flipping out during that time looking at South Korea since they were at the time testing & based on population differences it was 25x? But🇰🇷was still masking… so 44x😳 sadly makes complete sense

Got to go find my #napkinMath

But hey, EVERY SINGLE COUNTRY is doing what NY did 3/2022

I’m done. I can’t. F**k this.

My #napkinMath friend! Best term introduction ever:)

Think what’s important to note here is the amount of time it takes to get infected has gone from Wild strain approx 10-15 minutes to now far far less than 1 minute #viralDose

observation of acquaintances it appears there is some sort of very temporary #immunity but my belief is they’ve constant infections until very mutated #variant makes them visibly ill again

this is no way to live💔

Assuming electricity cost of ~0.20€/KWh, every 1W of always-on device costs you ~1.75€ per year (0.001 * 24 * 365 * 0.2 = 1.752).

So that old TV that sips 30W on standby costs you 50€ per year to have plugged in.

Yesterday, my spouse opened the door to our apartment for 2 seconds. Unlike July, I had windows open, filters on etc

I THOUGHT I WAS SAFE… but I have tell-tale exposure signs. Not anything close to or as bad as what happened in July b/c it was heavily diluted… & probs b/c I had 2 illegal shots of #Novavax #IWantMyNovavax for all

Whatever is #circulating currently, it’s more contagious than BA.5 & my calculations #NapkinMath for that was 10 inhales🚫😷for 18.6

R22 is <then that for certain

A light-nanosecond is ~30cm, each meter is ~3 light-nanoseconds, kilometer is ~3 light-microseconds, etc.
