The parent likely meant an internal recruiter, a role distinct from HR (probably much better paid too). It is the job of such people to make you feel OK in hope you apply again for another position with the same company. I worked for few co

Wow, is that a local/US thing? Having worked for the majority of my career in the UK (and now in Central Europe) I didn't experience many rejections after an interview, but these few I did have I was always told why. Unless you me

For sure they do. I spoke about these floodlights with the people in the shop I bought them at and they had a representative of the supplier come every month in a van to collect all the dead ones and give them new ones. I can't underst

I'm currently on Ryzen 3700X and asus tuf gaming x570 MB. I'd love more single core performance and more nvme/disk speed. Also I have a dual GPU setup, 2 M2 nvme, and 6 sata occupied. I'm considering upgrading end of the

This is the same in Poland (the country I moved to), but who can find receipts for light bulbs bought 6 months ago... I do keep them now (especially for more expensive ones like these Led floodlights). In fact that's how I got through

This is a really good tip. Although ripping them apart is the last thing I'd like to do when I buy a new set of lights I might have to start doing that.

I haven't. I should've probably mentioned I'm in Europe. That most likely excludes them for me. I've had a look at their page, they don't have the fittings I get (gu10, E27 - probably these are not used in the US) a

Virtually all of them fail the same way. One(or more) of the individual LED diodes fail open. They are usually discolored as if they burned. I'm fixing them by replacing the diodes that failed (I desoldering them from other lights that

I'm really disappointed with all the LED lights I tried (except one brand that doesn't exist anymore). Led lights were supposed to last 10 years at 8h per day. Initially they were expensive, but it was possible to get LEDs of good

Have I missed 99% of the content or is this purely to raise awarness? There is no description of the honeypot. Did the person running it manage to intercept any root kits, if yes what were they? I remember years ago there was this vnc vulne

I think the article claiming "PyTorch has dropped the drawbridge on the CUDA moat" is way over optimistic. Jest pytorch is widely used by researchers and by users to quickly iterate various over various ways to use the models, but
