I was gonna note how similar this looks to how Jensen operates - he also has something like 50 direct reports, in some ways removing the need for skip level interactions often.

I consider that ebb and flow a totally acceptable part of human reality - as long as you find yourself not self-destructively procrastinating in the lower energy times, it seems sustainable to go at 75% (making up a number) sometimes and 12

This is great, and covers aspects of work balance/integration/whatever-you-want-to-call-it that I haven't seen talked about as much. A big problem I see on an ongoing basis is the confusion between time spent working and work

As someone who lives in the Houston metro area, I totally agree that there are places in the country better situated at the present moment. My broader point aligns with the other comment here - on the timeframe in which we'd think abou

Are we proposing to relocate every resident and business along the US gulf coast? I don't think Texas is more or less susceptible to hurricanes than the rest of the gulf. And from the looks of the northwest, there's a chance we&#x

Blue collar machine learning jobs center around data labeling: https://www.techrepublic.com/article/is-data-labeling-the-ne... I don't ever see the actual modeling work around AI becoming blue collar. It's co

It's true. I may have actually been higher for some loans until I got a couple of promotions and had enough of an income increase to be able to refinance to a 5 year 4.75% loan at SoFi. Which itself still feels high as you watch DAILY

Some variation of this gain is implemented in various HPC systems as well. For PCIe response vs routing through the CPU/OS, you see all sorts of offload engines and CPU bypass technology being used in networking stacks. For small IO be

Very interesting! I did not know that this existed. I know some people who will be interested.

It really depends on what the workload is and if performance or scale are priorities. Our team and the products we build come from the HPC side of the fence and we've been engaged with all sorts of large businesses that know their perf

We're seeing a lot of regret around sprawling Hadoop deployments, so this doesn't surprise me. Other Hadoop vendors (vendor?) pivoting to machine learning is a bandaid as the compute capabilities scale beyond HDFS's performan

There are all sorts of synergies here that might not be obvious: 1. Slingshot interconnect enables HPE to offer their own high performance fabric. This is important as NVIDIA scoops up Mellanox. 2. Cray is clearly ahead of HPE in exascale s

High performance networking on the whole, of which HPC GPU solutions are only one use case. And there's the continuing trend of sticking offload engines in the form of ARM ASICs alongside devices that connect over PCIe. A bit farther i
