You can easily get well past $40k once you start adding some Quadro GPUs, 192gb RAM and a few TBs of PCIe storage into any of the mainstream manufacturers’ workstation products.

Ironing out the issues around scaling can take years, and investors are skittish to back projects that might reach well into the 100’s of $millions, and there’s so much other development in the market that it’s hard to pick the winning hors

It’s tricky - people have different tastes, and ingredients may change from region to region. Furthermore, making people measure things with a scale rather than a cup adds significant effort and time in the scheme of things.

I was also confused, but about an apparent gripe against cooking in sequential order. To be fair, tbsp is universally acceptable, but the apparent apparent ignorance of metric measures among US-centric authors is ludicrous. To continue this

This has been discussed ad nauseum. The client side code isn’t looking at your files, it’s looking for a signature. If you don’t have the signature, it won’t do anything. I’m a privacy advocate, and this approach actually increased my tru

For most users, they’ll only get a prompt when they login to a new device, so the risk of notification fatigue is lessened, so I think it’s OK on that front. I agree however that admins are constantly bombarded with alerts and can suffer fr

Is CBC really seen like that in Canada? Australia’s counterpart, the ABC, is a beloved institution that gains much of its respect from espousing its political independence (despite attacks from the right wing media and whoever is in power o

I’m not a DBA, but is there any IP around what OP and others are attempting to do? Surely anything that makes your life easier would have been patented by Oracle or the likes to eke every dollar out of the market?

IMO, it’s the platforms that turn down novel ideas in preference for money making products, resulting in less visibility for the underdog. Apple’s App Store routinely promotes paid for apps over free ones. Steam does the same. Google search

That was my thoughts too, which led me to assume that the transformative moment was related to some sort of sexual awakening (which comes with a whole slew of positive outcomes like inclusion, belonging and empowerment, particularly if you’

Additionally, there’s a point where the user’s desired use case is just isn’t reasonable. 4gb RAM is very little to work with, particularly in a world where 8gb is the norm.

Wow that’s brutal. Any specific reasons for the exit? Did a key contributor leave? Did the new ownership put it on hold? Did they all just get fired? Please tell me there is a dramatic exchange of emails lurking behind all this.
