I think they want to spread out the bets and expect a bunch of these to become acquihires fairly quickly.

People think these tools are more capable than they are because marketers encourage that misrepresentation. This leads to a huge glut of scam companies that are nothing more than wrappers on OpenAI's GPT tech, or chaining together tool

I mostly meant when Apple goes crazy like Vision Pro being $3500, Mac Studio and Mac Pro prices, etc. Those are low-volume items and I think Vision Pro will be relegated to that niche too. If they cut a lot of useless fluff like the eyeball

I can't speak to this case, but dev kits and SDK/documentation are often two separate SKUs and the latter has a higher price. If I remember the Crash Bandicoot guys found a hardware bug with memory card saving because they rolled

This is them doing that but also trying to do what Android did, capture the bulk of the market and leave the ultra-ridiculously-high-end to Apple.

Yep, I've become excellent at ignoring it, only about 2% of the time does it get bad enough to be bothersome or noticeable. I always comment on these "this will make your tinnitus go away" posts with be careful, you may find

Actually modular ones would be GREAT for repairablity in fleets. I could ship them to my tier 1 guys and have them swap out a part rather than going back to Lenovo or Dell and taking weeks.

It's a solution, not a part. Plug this into the LAN, copy data. It manages everything about the file storage internally, etc. With this much storage (the sheer number of drives) you need a dedicated server to keep the data moving.

There's genetics, but then there's gene expression which is affected by the world, so they clearly grew differently.

The thing about administrative government is that you free up congress by allowing them to approve the creation of administrative bodies. It was pretty much the only good thing President Wilson did, help create the administrative state. FCC

ISPs are desperate to be part of the monetary exchange of services over their infrastructure, they've been trying to become more than "dumb pipes" for decades and virtually no one wants that. Imagine if the water company coul

I actually agree with it too. Google and Facebook aren't the reason news outlets have cash problems and a free teat to latch on to isn't the answer. News is important, but let's fix the problem in a better way.

This is why people increasingly get married privately and then have a non-legal ceremony later however they want, to avoid government garbage like this.

Using SCCM doesn't preclude MSIs at all. MSIs via group policy are probably used 1000x more often than SCCM.
