Think of how much people whine about printer ink without A) looking for alternatives and B) questioning why their printer was fucking free (with rebate).

Ah. So basically FizzBuzz Enterprise.

Found the youtuber.

Not quite. When Nvidia releases a new chip, they’ll release a bunch of documentation that indicates how the chip needs to be used. How to configure it. Cooling requirements. Etc. Each Board manufacturer (like MSI) uses this documentation to manufacture the physical boards that you buy.

What OP was referring to is that NVidia doesn’t physically have a plant with a bunch of people in bunny suits walking around a clean room. Instead, they contract manufacturers and send the designs for them to build.

It’s like how Apple designs phones but Foxconn actually builds them.

Can you elaborate? This is my first time dealing with higher level languages in the workplace (barring some Python scripts), and I feel like I’m losing my mind.

Thank you. Dude checked in a shit load of code before going on PTO for three weeks. We get pretty live plots of data, but he broke basically every hardware driver in the process.

what is the math formula for your endocrine system?

I’m in a nightmare scenario where my new job has a guy using Claude to pump out thousands of lines of C++ in a weekend. I’ve never used C++ (just C for embedded devices).

He’s experienced, so I want to believe he knows what he’s doing, but every time I have a question, the answer is “oh that’s just filler that Claude pumped out,” and some copy pasted exposition from Claude.

So I have no idea what’s AI trash and what’s C++ that I don’t know.

Like a random function was declared as a template. I had to learn what function templates are for. So I do, but the function is only defined once, and I couldn’t think of why you would need to templatize it. So I’m sitting here barely grasping the concept and syntax and trying to understand the reasoning behind the decision, and the answer is probably just that Claude felt like doing it that way.

What about political science? Psychology?

Is the joke that the page doesn’t load?

I love the jump across the crevasse. Like, if its feet slip (which they will on snow like that), you die.

Yeah, their website sent me to a store that had one display model and they could order it.

Later found another store that had dozens of them all folded up on cute shelves. I love mine.

Looks like you screwed it all up

Microsoft comes out with Windows Supercomputer Pro.

They sell 6 copies.

When you’re running exotic hardware, everything is custom. Linux is the most easily customizable.

First rule of time travel: It can always get worse.

The tenets of capitalism say nothing about how much each person makes. Nor do communism. If you’re eager to learn more, read something.

Because everyone would have access to the same opportunities and same schools etc. Those with better talents or a better work ethic will probably make more money. Instead of today where families hoard wealth through generations.

It’s spelled “caste,” and castes are (critically) hereditary. Leaving a caste you were born into is virtually impossible.

People who do more/harder work can get compensated an appropriate amount. Note that this runs at odds to the current system where a CEO makes 1000x their employees salary despite not working 1000x as hard.

The researchers used the video to show that the fastest parts of the remnant are traveling at about 13.8 million miles per hour (2% of the speed of light)

What’s remarkable is at this speed, it would still take 2.7 days to travel from Earth to Saturn.

My take has more to do with how accessible the methods of violence are. Most kids playing GTA aren’t (dog willing) going to have access to an arsenal of fully automatic weapons or sporty cars. At that point, they might as well be using wizard magic. I think even a young kid can recognize that it’s fantasy.

But I remember in GTA3 (or maybe Vice City?), you could use a screwdriver as a stabbing weapon. That’s kinda fucked.

I personally remember trying a move from Mortal Kombat on one of my friends when we were rough housing when I was like 7. While he was on his back, I jumped (off his bed I think?) and landed with my full body weight on my knee on his sternum. Probably could have cracked a rib. Certainly knocked the wind out of him. Learned that day that even the non-stabby bits of MK should stay in the pretend realm.

To some degree, I know kids will try to emulate what they see. If what they see is fantasy, nobody gets hurt.
