I'd like to see more companies have clawback compensation for these "bold" decisions - stuff goes wrong, we are clawing back all your stock, even the tranche which vested during the first quarter pump and dump scam. And I&#x2

I believe the helium in the hard drives allows the heads to fly closer to the platter due to the different Reynolds number, not dust.

I’ve wondered if something like this would drive down inflation in the US food supply.

I paid for FSD the first month it was offered monthly. Was so bad I wanted my money back but couldn’t figure out how to get Tesla to refund. Feel worse for those who paid the full $8k

You sound like my fellow citizens who have decided to use their theocratic power to push this view across my city and school. It impacts my children and their future mates. Sure, there’s an ideal world in which every person finds their idea

Back in the early 2000s I was programming on an IBM AIX server. Multicore, maybe multiprocessor and within the same machine, the clocks were skewed between the processors. If you’d dispatch a process, and then check its outstanding running

Once the US has air superiority, they don’t need their aircraft carriers anywhere close to Venezuela territory. The submarine fleet alone can enforce a blockade.

This seems like the most logical explanation.

I’m still waiting until I see little X Æ A-Xii playing in the street while Tesla Robotaxis deliver passengers before I buy these arguments. Until then, my children are playing in the street while these autonomous vehicles threaten their saf

Did the original poster claim that he bought it from Woolworths, or did someone else buy it? I question if the poster obtained the gift card from some path where the original purchaser may have been scammed.

My son was just scammed out of $1000 using some gift card scam. Typically these gift cards cannot be revoked once issued and anyone using the gift cards (like the people who scammed my son) would be able to reap the rewards without any cons

The paranoid would also follow the write with a read command, setting the SCSI FUA (forced unit access) bit, requiring the disk to read from the physical media, and confirming the data is really written to that rotating rust. Trying to do s

I’ve seen disks do off track writes, dropped writes due to write channel failures, and dropped writes due to the media having been literally scrubbed off the platter previously. You need LBA seeded CRC to catch these failures along with a n

I remember reading an article about British workers during WW2 who were willing to work any number of hours to beat the Nazis. Initially their productivity spiked as they worked more hours. Eventually it crashed, and they did a study to ide

In my state, the politicians attempt to fund the schools the least amount possible. Healthcare will fare no better.

I’m concerned with anyone proposing “Medicare for all” in America, because they all state - for doctors who want to stay out of the system, they can be paid directly… that immediately causes a slightly different 2 tier system. Right now our

I have a 2019 Model 3, and it has some paint issues, specifically in the door hinge areas. It had some suspension issues which were repaired in half a day, under warranty. It has an issue where the windshield in front of the self driving ca

I’m talking about drive enclosures made by storage companies. The EMC, NetApp, IBM, HP type of places. Consumer grade cases all use the cheapest sheet metal they can find.

The best drive enclosures I’ve worked on used laminated steel. Steel-plastic-steel in order to absorb the vibrations. Worked great, but for some reason this isn’t widely used in the industry, as if the laminated steel guys don’t have good s

I’ve wondered if it makes sense to buy Intel along with Cerebrus in order to use Intels newest nodes while under development to fab the Cerebrus wafer level inference chips which are more tolerant of defects. Overall that seems like the che

About 10 years ago my AC failed. Decided it was time to replace both my units including the air handler. Bought the equipment online from Alpine Air and it arrived in a few days. Then I put an ad on Craigslist for a AC installation. Paid $1
