    How much wasted RAM do you have in your home machine? Couldn't it be better used in Altman's datacenter?

    I downloaded the wikipedia max dump and I just load random pages of that into RAM. That way the ram is always in use.

    If you use linux, your RAM is never unallocated. Once it's done with something it just leaves it there until it needs to use the space and then it just overwrites it as necessary. Instead of immediately dumping the memory every time it closes a process.

    "Unused RAM is wasted RAM" is part of the design philosophy. Altman must have heard that and not understood it.

    Grandpa: "As you wish" was all he ever said to her.

    Buttercup: Augment, fill these with water - please.

    Khan: As you wish.

    Grandpa: That day, she was amazed to discover that when he was saying "As you wish," what he meant was, "I love you." And even more amazing was the day she realized she truly loved him back.

    Buttercup: Augment ... fetch me that pitcher.

    Khan: As you wish.
