Containers happened because nobody can be bothered to build an entire application into a single distributable executable anymore - heck even the tooling barely exists anymore. But instead of solving problems like dependency management and l

Goodness, I have over 100TB at home and it cost less than a two or three thousand dollars to put in place. That's like $25 per TB. > The stored data amounts to 858TB (terabytes), equivalent to 449.5 billion A4 sheets. No, the 858T

You may want to check that your Xeon may already support hardware encoding of AV1 in the iGPU. I saved a bundle building a media server when I realized the iGPU was more than sufficient (and more efficient) than chucking a GPU in the case.

GPUs are the land that's staked. They're of limited intrinsic value in the sense that they're in the way of getting to the gold (models), but there's a small supply of it so they go for a lot on the market. But if there

Of course they've stood it out. The rate of change and the R&D expenditure is off the charts. It buys them marginal utility to hire AI talent at incredible salaries to keep them at table stakes. Meanwhile, the models are getting la

We used to eat out a lot . COVID changed it. What changed? We were forced to really learn how to cook properly, then we saw how much money we were spending eating out, and how much healthier and to-our-taste we could make our own cooking

Weird, I've never had that problem. You do have to remember to set the sync mode to off and it seems fine after that. It may have been an OS setting that was letting the drives spin down if they were doing so after that.
