I found the sources to rustup's setup tool but not rustup itself which gets installed by rustup-init. Can you provide a link to the right repository?

If the org plans for and provides the resources to engineer it properly from scratch, yes, it can be good idea. I've only encountered the scenario where the original developer was only allowed to band-aid patch it repeatedly.

It would be okay if prototypes would be prototypes, but in the software field prototypes are too often taken into production. It's like a designer giving you a small model how they envision it. You don't expect to shrink yourself

Even if robots do more of it, it's a win because there's no precious resource in Asia that requires fabs to sit there like say tea plantations and because better robots will allow setting up fabs in more diverse locations.

Where do you store videos and music you work on? Where you do you store containers or vms or build artifacts for software development? Prices of SSDs have to come down at least 5 times to be in any way comparable (10x actually to match $&#x

So is it just that the APIs are not there yet which motivated wld to talk directly to Intel's DRM?

This should be documented and spread more widely. Nvidia seems to use the same tactics as Intel in market segregation and also some semi-related bullying tactics.

Do you mean as a contractor? If so, how normal is it to go through an interview process for contracting? I got friends who told me they had to interview like for a regular position even though they're contracting, but I should say that

You will be able to use leveldb with Mnesia in R19.

The last time I've read numbers a couple years ago, not even Microsoft had 35k software developers.

Yes, the picture kinda confirms my suspicion. Looking at this https://github.com/michaelforney/wld/blob/master/intel/i965_... you have to wonder how much device-specific stuff one has to implement n

Drivers make up pretty much all of the code in the Linux kernel, so not very surprising.

I've been wondering how Wayland actually works underneath. Seeing how Wayland window managers usually have a drawing layer that among others have a specific backend for Intel, I scratched my head wondering if people have to reinvent&#x

Sure, but planning to hire 35k devs requires a better explanation than that. Even building a space station like DS9 wouldn't make use of 35k in any effective way. How would you coordinate and make use of the available workforce?

Speaking of, if you've watched last week's Silicon Valley episode and are in the valley, is it really true that recruiters send you gift baskets just to lure you to an interview?

by cm3 10y ago
Yeah, I'm always amused when large corps complain about missing workforce and about needing 50.000 software developers in Germany. But if you went looking they either don't want developers but PhD's who've heard of C++ o

The guys from LinusTechTips have used Unraid (a paid KVM+BTRFS based NAS+VM appliance) to do this with a 7 or 8 GPU machine. See 7 gamers one PC on YouTube. It seemed to be simple to set up, once you have configured the BIOS.

How is the smoothness of the AMD drivers? Any tearing as it reliably happens with all Intel GPUs and latest kernels and X drivers if you don't force vsync?

I've learned first-hand that these days software teams don't seem to take a chance and do not use the probationary period to see if someone is a good fit. You go through four or 6 interviews and then one of the 8 or so people you&

I compile a lot of code and also encode videos where an Intel i3 will beat the APU. That's the dilemma I'm in, and it's a pity that the Zen APUs don't arrive until 2017. First it's the CPU only Zen chips, but maybe

I want to use an AMD GPU but would like to have one that is comparable in energy requirements to Intel's GPU. I just don't want to have a GPU that uses 150 or 200 watts but the Intel drivers are regressing so much that AMD seems l

And isn't this something that Nvidia artificially disables in consumer cards while AMD has no such limitation for passthrough?

The new AMD drivers will have only user space binary parts and everything in the kernel will be open source and integrated upstream. This way, you can have the latest and best AMD driver code for Vulkan and OpenGL bits.

The Intel drivers have had many serious regressions in the last year, so they are not the pinnacle of quality anymore. Both the X driver and the kernel drm bits. One major regression set was introduced in 4.3 with the atomic modesetting cha

If you want to see a hard to justify CPU hog, take a look at the amount of CPU Chrome or Firefox use for downloading a file. Then compare it to wget.

To me quality in medicine can be split into (1) what ailments are treated, (2) success rate, (3) accident rate and (4) how large the percentage of those eligible for treatment is.

Who says the US has the best medical care in the world? Is it really that much better than German, Dutch or French hospitals?

Use shadow repos just for CI and nothing else.
