From the spec sheets I’m looking at, it is not. I’m seeing models of the Dell Pro Max with 128 GB of DDR5-6400 as CAMM2, then a separate memory of up to 24 GB on the GPU. CAMM2 does not make the memory unified. There are also SO-DIMM option

There’s no way to build domain knowledge like working in the field you want to target. This could be a reusable model for people looking to serve a well-targeted vertical with one’s own software company for that vertical.

Honestly, I read that passage as Carol realizing as she spoke that she had been underwatering that spot semi-consciously the whole time. That’s one of the things about expertise gained by doing. We don’t always realize exactly what we’re do

Reading it, I get the feeling the author worked the story the way Tom Hartmann works those agricultural machines. The AI gave input, but the author was tweaking it with human knowledge and wisdom.

Every decent Chromebook the past several years can run a full Debian. I’m guessing the one thing you’re mentioning is disabling that feature. There are still client-side firewalls and some other settings to change to lock it down further fo

The app certainly opened for me. I don’t know that I’d use it. Design and layout of an interface is useful apart from the implementation though.

Debian stable isn’t that much more version locked than CentOS or RHEL. Debian also has the Testing tier, which is semi-rolling. Or you could use Unstable. Or if you’re brave, you could use Nightly. Ubuntu, Mint, PopOS, and others with Debia

macOS or Windows can be similarly locked down. In the schools, the school locks it down. In many companies, there are management tools like JAMF, InTune, or NinjaOne that lock down laptops, desktops, tablets, and cell phones a little or com

You can still design the layout. That’s useful, but not nearly as useful as they are planning.

It's possibly something else nondeterministic, which may be even more subtle from an external look than a race condition. That should be rare, but it’s been known to happen.

Ethernet was once carried over thick coax at like 2 then 3 megabits per second. By the time it was standardized as IEEE 802.3 it was at 10 megabits. 802.3 was thin coax. 802.3e took a step back in speed to 1 megabit, but over phone-type wir
