what game can’t be ran by a 5800x3D ? if anything I feel like graphic cards are the biggest bottle neck right now

coming up next: Intel fires 25% of their staff, CEO gets a quarterly bonus in the millions

suits don’t give a shit about anything except lining their pockets. part of the job is to say things that get public approval which is often mistaken as them actually caring for said things

pepe entropy pepe entropy I got BOXES full of pepe

don’t give Terrance Howard any ideas please

warning: it is very fringe.

Jacques Vallee. He had a Ted talk (or Ted ex or whatever) and it was equally unimpressive.

There’s a popular figure in a fringe topic who’s contributed to computer science enough to have earned respect (and rightfully so) who writes these fringe articles with so much fanfare and pretentiousness that the entire meaning is impossible to extract.

It just ends up sounding like a pretentious word salad.

I have this pet peeve of loud morning talkers. I don’t know how to explain it but I believe I don’t mind loud talkers in everyday life but I notice it right after waking up.

(Usage of the word talkers over speakers chosen to emphasize the human and not the electronic product)

Word pad the goat of somehow interpreting files as not UTF8

Nintendo fanboys are a special breed of stupid, arguing with them about Nintendo’s policies and anti consumer practices is just a wasted effort.

Except it’s not a free operating system. An operating system should fulfill the needs of its users without having to pay for basic functionality: see everyone OS ever that is not w11

You cannot use anything without signing up. You can’t use clip champ which should require 0 Internet connectivity.

They want to act as if linking your account is a prerequisite when it’s neither required or helpful

There’s so much alt right propaganda today against truth and reconciliation.

It actually sickens me to think that people wake up and seek to denounce historical atrocities (and far to many to list against the first nations).

If you don’t have access to Linux, MacOS is the closest commercially available option so it makes sense.

Also please take what I said lightly, I by no means want to bash Mac users and generalize them. It just has been my experience. I’m sure there are thousands of highly competent technical users who prefer Mac.

I think it’s on a case by case basis but having help desk ppl help you out and opening powershell and noodling without any concept of problem solving made me make this face once.

It probably goes both ways, I’m a dev and I assembled computers at 12 yo so I believe I have a lot of experience and knowledge when it comes to hardware. I’ve also written code for embedded platforms.

IT people in my pov can really come across as enthusiast consumers when it comes to their hardware knowledge.

“did you guys hear Nvidia has the new [marketing term] wow!” . Have you ever thought about what [marketing term] actually does past just reading the marketing announcement?

At the same time I swear to God devs who use macs have no idea how computers work at all and I mean EXCLUDING their skill as a dev. I’ve had them screen share to see what I imagine is a baby’s first day on a computer.

To close this rant: probably goes both ways

Those certainly are some opinions.

I’ve recently looked at SQL style guides and regretfully, I hate all of them.

Just web, which is bullshit cause i literally work with like 3 OSs and 5 programming languages, ci cd. I just get thrown into a random project and come out with solutions. I told my manager my title should be software dev but he disagreed, shucks I guess.

Eh, not sure if this is true at all. I think the reality is that niche specialized roles are valuable (frontend expert) but you are not “hacking” your way in full stack unless you are a junior or just bad at development.

I don’t consider myself to be hacking anything I do, even things I’m not as strong in (ci cd) I pay full attention to documentation and examples before blinding coding or writing ci scripts

My manager gave me a talk about how I couldnt be intermediate because I don’t have enough years there. My friend intermediate is about pay and my YOE not about my tenure here (won’t be long till I quit)

They do according to can stats
