So you’re conceding this is location dependent. So in effect you’re saying the article is also location dependent? Pick one. If you knew the statistics on kidnapping or missing children in the US, you would not think of this as a “life-styl

Counter point: I used to walk home from school. Got robbed at gun point several times. Jumped for my skin color numerous times. Had a neighborhood buddy who got stabbed three times on his way home and survived. I can go on and on and on. I

For now. Nvidia is starting to package everything and eat the whole DC market. x86 is not looking so great outside of legacy use cases.

This place worships Zuck because he apparently “open sourced” AI. It’s the most ridiculous narrative on its own but we also live in the most absurd moment in history.

I am not sure if Intel can survive on its own. Games changed quite a bit and Nvidia is about to enter the space and will likely gain significant shares if they bundle their products in anticompetitive ways. It will be cutthroat for both Int

Just curious for the older devs on here, how seminal was Oracle in 80/90s? I feel he was actually a good dev but his career as a ruthless sales person and corporate tactician overshadows whatever accomplishments he had as a database de

I don’t think you realize how hard it is to fill these critical jobs. You would need skilled labor at pay substantially below the private market rate. A lot of these talented people work for the government because they’re patriotic. And thi

That’s my point really. People just assume government workers are lazy and don’t do much but in reality a lot of these people play CRITICAL roles. Having been on both sides, government workers aren’t more or less efficient versus private co

What always amazed me about Chickens from raising them first hand is how much nutrients they produce from so little. They’re so efficient. I think this is more of a lifestyle choice because raising them is not cost effective even at these p

I’ve never heard anyone say Meta is the good guys. It ranks worse than Oracle in my book.

Intel is #1 example of why you don’t let management consultants come inside your company. They are simply the worst. Why do you let a bunch of PE/VC-rejects dictate your corporate strategy?

These are all half-baked at best. They are spending so much money on undergraduate-level work. But to be fair, who in their right mind would work for Meta in 2025 if you have the talent.

I’d think people can get together to put this on a public space strictly for training purposes and have the consortium of some sort get paid per use. But we live in this stupid society where you have to move mountains to change things an in

Raising kids is hard. And it’s an evolving task. How we were raised is not the right way to raise kids now. Parents sometimes try to relive or remake their childhood. You can pour so much time and energy into parenting and not get it right.

Sorry for the political comment but every time I see Tesla financials I think “this company should’ve failed in 2014 but-for those subsidies and ill-conceived carbon credits.”

You know what’s ironic is that Tesla survived because of Obama era subsidies. They were desperate to get one private enterprise to succeed because so many solar and other “clean” energy private ventures failed during that period. So, in my

TINA. Government forced everyone to save for retirement this way. There’s way too much capital trapped in SPY and that’s going to create distortions in price discovery and these abrupt corrections in individual stocks.

This is not a market crash. I don’t know how old you’re but you might have been conditioned to think this way by the market’s unrelenting march higher. But those of us from the dotcom days can tell you it crashes eventually and very painful

Deepseek team is mostly quants from my understanding which explains why they were able to pull this off. Some of the best coders I’ve met have been quants.
