> Do you actually do this, or are you just virtue signaling? You never buy factory-farmed animal products from the store? I grew up in a town in Mississippi of about 2000 people. Everyone hunts. My grandfather's best friend was a bu

It was luck, honestly. I got three WD Ultrastar Data60s from a friend whose company was upgrading to some even more ridiculous storage solution. They were letting them go for $10,000 each or so, populated with 14 TB drives, so I went for al

There is no contradiction here. Just because something is a lovely animal doesn't mean I won't put a round through it's heart and butcher it's corpse to sustain my life. Elk are beautiful animals, but I have no problem k

> You don't need a fast charger at home. This is such an arrogant statement. I may not "need" 3 petabytes of storage for my home media server, but I have it. I may not "need" a 64-core Threadripper 3990X workstat

This actually explains why it's necessary for Communism as an ideology to kill so many people. You can't have bad faith actors in the system because then the system ceases to function... hence executing all the bad faith actors. A

What I'm about to say I know will sound glib, or... something... but I don't know what else to say, or even how else to say it, but after learning this, why do I want to say something along the lines of, "Communists are too s

Not only is this not the whole story, it's a fucking awful interpretation of the actual story. Turn the clock back 23 years to 1999 and the GPU market was exploding, with tons of vendors, tons of chips, tons of competition, and exc

This problem is easily solved by just flooding the market. These companies have the advantage of scale, and huge amounts of pre-existing capital. Sony could make 100,000,000 PS5s and send them all out to retailers and just flood the market

That's because leadership is failing. The correct response of leaders is to ignore wealthy citizens attempting to prop up their multi-million dollar 3bed4bath properties and let them know, "We're going to zone more areas fo

My point is that anyone can learn what they want to do on YouTube. I served with an Electronics Technician in the Navy who started watching YouTube videos on commercial HVAC and now he does that as a living, servicing mostly restaurants in

> Just pay people a fair wage. Is it that hard? Yes. Because we have no idea how to define 'fair'. I hear 'fair wage' over and over but no one can ever explain to me what makes the wage 'fair' other than, &q

I would be willing to bet the CEOs of these ultra-large, ultra-powerful tech firms provide far more than 700x the value of their average worker.

I often hear this and let me just pose this question... Damn near everyone in America, at least, has access to YouTube or other streaming services. I learned how to program in R from The Teaching Company Plus' (now Wondrium)'s &qu

I know what I'm about to say will seem perverse, but frankly I'm looking forward to shit really hitting the fan. I'm talking 1930s Depression era fuckery. The modern world needs it. We've created ridiculous systems that

Part of it is an increase in the "tech" pie, but I think it's also a matter of people just becoming aware of Y-Combinator's Hacker News. I was aware of Y-Combinator & Hacker News for a long time, but, for whatever re

That's an enthralling tale, but perhaps you could share why you feel it deserved praise-singing to begin with, and also what titles you worked on, considering many developers were complaining about it when it was current console arch

Not to be too big of an asshole, but you really don't see the lesson here? To me, it's crystal clear. You don't allow a dreamer to be a project manager. They get bogged down in the dream and never finish the damn project. At

Is there a browser plug-in or some other piece of software that can filter, or highlight, which posts / comments are likely made by bots?

This is pretty exciting. The last remaining hurdle I had to doing a motorcoach-to-tiny-home conversion was reliable, high-speed, low latency Internet access and it looks like that hurdle has just been cleared.

> Spreading misinformation about results of elections isn’t illegal but is very obviously quite damaging and has real world consequences. How do you tackle this issue? You don't. People are legally allowed to spread misinformation.

So instead of saying, "I told you so" in four words, you stretched it out to 30+ words. I can almost guarantee that if someone is saying, "I told you so", they've probably also tried to explain to someone why X is a
