There are also a lot of cases where you can overclock without sacrificing stability. The standard clock speed for any line of processors is simply the minimum it is tested for. But you sometimes get lucky and can get a better chip with more

What does your post even mean? It says nothing except, that you seem to be triggered by words like empathy. Understanding and empathy in this context mean exactly what I explained. Which is understanding how much of your success is built up

FU money has nothing to do with living a wealthy lifestyle. It's having all your basic needs taken care of so you don't have to do things you don't want to do to earn money. See John Goodman in the Big Lebowski for a full de

I'm sure that's what they think. I don't know if the data really indicates that going to VC route will make you richer. It could certainly make you more publicly successful.

Not op, but I'm sure, like many people, are saying they would like to see advertised, upfront pricing.

That seems like a bad strategy since employees that are most in demand will be the first to find another job and leave.

The thing is, founders can get fabulously wealthy with a lifestyle business or at least very wealthy, but it might take longer. But all the established money seeking rent parked at VC firms can't get a cut if you don't play ball w

If you are making your own build, is there a benefit to using f-droid? Why not just install the APK?

Much of the really well made stuff that we buy here in the US also comes from China. They are now quite capable of very high end manufacturing as well.

Most of the food in the grocery store in the US is not produced abroad. Especially perishables like dairy which have import restrictions and would be too pricey to bring in from far away.

Because the suffix "ism" doesn't really refer to interpersonal things. It connotes a system. Some may not agree with the distinction, but the reality that racial bias without power and a system behind it is not really the sam

No, you want to change descrimination. You have to have metrics related to descrimination if you are going to develop policy to change it.

I think there was an early argument for subsidizing expensive EVs assuming that was the only way to advance them. But no longer is that the case.

In my experience, the system just hangs up on you after about half an hour.

Well, maybe I'm just not understanding how the statistics are applied, but I don't see how one could use statistical analysis to predict the next word if the specific sequence has never been encountered by the model. For example,

To me, because those expensive extra features on a Mac are not optional, I still consider it way overpriced. The only reason many of those little extra boosts are so expensive is because they simply aren't broadly in demand.

Recognizing privilege or advantages or whatever you want to call it has nothing to do with guilt and everything to do with empathy and understanding of the world around you. I find it interesting that many people would be quick to recognize

I feel like predicting the next most likely word is a grave oversimplification of what is going on with chatgpt. At least from my admittedly limited amount of testing, it appears to be capable of synthesizing unique content from multiple so

Are you sure it can't learn? If it gives you incorrect information, you can correct it and it will give you the correct information in subsequent questions. Is that not learning?

A lot of big players like adobe and microsoft don't seem to think this is a problem. In the past I have gotten cracks for legitimately purchased software from both because their licensing system is/was crap and would block access

Fast fashion is certainly cheaper for "fashionable" clothes. The market they are disrupting is a relatively small one. Cheaper clothing is available to everyone through stores like target, Walmart, or other department stores. And

What is so frustrating to me is how they could simply offer email/ticket based support so much easier and cheaper for most issues. And yet so many companies do not even have the option. I've been dealing with a home warranty compa

Thank you for calling the passenger emergency assistance hotline. We are experiencing high call volume and long wait times due to the covid-19 pandemic from 12 years ago. Your estimated wait time is 354 minutes.

I don't really think the government needs to be subsidizing cars for the wealthy. Or encouraging bad purchasing decisions for the less than wealthy.

I don't know what it is now, but Cici used to have $1.99 all you can eat pizza buffets on certain days of the week. This would have been in the mid 90s. Unbelievably (suspiciously?) cheap even for then.

Ineptitude is high on the list. But I would put misaligned incentives pretty high on the list of reasons too. So many executives make decisions that make sense for their bottom line but that may not be good for the company and shareholders

Sure, 50/50 is probably not where a lot of professions should be. But it's pretty unrealistic to assume the percentage we are at is exactly where it should be. Especially considering how many women in professions like programming
