Season 4, Finale

A country putting tariffs on imports doesn’t necessarily mean it’s being anti-competitive, or anything nefarious.

In this example, the argument generally goes that China’s EV market is so cheap, compared to the US’s, because the Chinese government subsidizes it, I.E. gives EV makers free money so they can lower costs or expand infrastructure, which in turn leads to lower prices. Thus, a US tarrif is just attempting to re-level the playing field. How much truth there is to this, I don’t really know.

And this, in TURN, doesn’t necessarily mean that China is being anti-competitive either. There’s nothing wrong with them saying “Having a robust EV infrastructure is good for our country, and we think it’s going to be very important for our future, so we’re going to invest heavily into that.”

I mean, I’m paraphrasing, too.

Even better quote, I love using this one.

“So, with AI writing code for us, all we need is an unambiguous way to define, what all our business requirements are for the software, what all the edge cases are, and how it should handle them.”

“We in the industry call that ‘code.’”

Anyone else this there’s actually nothing at all wrong with the “New” row of icons? Except for the triangle one, which is terrible in its “Original” version as well, as it indicates absolutely nothing about its app (I believe it’s Google Drive, right?). All the rest are clearly distinguishable, and have relevance to what the app does.

Case in point: Every single thing Microsoft is doing in Windows these days.

Yeah, you need a way to specify what you want with a high degree of both flexibility and specificity. We have a term for that in the industry, it’s called “writing code”.

Slight distinction, though maybe not so much a practical one: it was more “Don’t do that with our weapons, Russia will get mad at us, instead of just you.”

Inside the kernel, even!

Absolutely. Like you say, it just doesn’t happen in large streams, and the threshold is probably a lot larger than you think, since on average maybe 10% of viewers actually participate in chat. The dynamic starts shifting at around 1,000 simultaneous viewers, in my experience, between chat being readable and interactable, and being just spam. That’s still plenty big enough to qualify for partner, and even make a living off of streaming alone.

I’mm’a need a gif of the two guys, arm-in-arm, sinking slowly into the lake. I smell a new meme format.

Having happiness in your life and wanting to share it with others?

Fucking nerd.

The XZ exploit was found because some dude was investigating performance issues in a system, and noticed an unusual amount of time being spent in SSH processing, IIRC.

Protip: don’t even engage with those systems. Just press 0. Every time it prompts you to say something to proceed. Has yet to fail me.

The fuck is “cheugy”? How the hell do you pronounce that?

I’ll take this over the more “classic” styles, when people seed to believe they were paying the compiler by the character.

Generally speaking, fault protection schemes need only account for one fault at a time, unless you’re a really large business, or some other entity with extra-stringent data protection requirements.

RAID protects against drive failure faults. Backups protect against drive failure faults as well, but also things like accidental deletions or overwrites of data.

In order for RAID on backups to make sense, when you already have RAID on your main storage, you’d have to consider drive failures and other data loss to be likely to occur simultaneously. I.E. RAID on your backups only protects you from drive failure occurring WHILE you’re trying to restore a backup. Or maybe more generally, WHILE that backup is in use, say, if you have a legal requirement that you must keep a history of all your data for X years or something (I would argue data like this shouldn’t be classified as backups, though).

Damn, actual personal growth being displayed on the internet? Such a rare thing I find myself wondering it wasn’t all staged. How messed up is that?

Also, how messed up is it that it worked, cause I’mm’a go watch all of these.

I don’t know why this makes me giggle so uncontrollably.

Can I get an Oracle version?
