I very, very much like the idea of DuckDB, but have had many headaches with what I would consider "low-medium" amounts of log data (400 million rows, 180GB+, after stripping out any un-needed text) which works without issue using

Adobe also charges 3 (I think) months penalty if you cancel CC. I have recently learned that if you reference covid-19 they immediately process anything you want with no penalties. I suspect they don't want to end up on the wrong side

I believe it is also the clearinghouses clamping down on them. I got a notice from Tasty earlier today explaining it. Note: I am not involved in this Gamespot show in any way.

It is only repeatable if someone is willing to short a huge percentage of a company. Maybe they should think twice anyway! In one since shorting is literally trying to take advantage of someone that has faith in a company. Many times people

Speak for yourself! When I was young and starting college, I was poor and lived in a semi-rural area. So getting back and forth to all the classes was very difficult. Not to mention I had to work two jobs to support myself at the time. I wo

But I was told GPT-3 was too powerful for mere mortal hands (unless you have an account!) and that it would be used for hate speech and to bring about skynet. How will this project avoid those terrible outcomes?

Do you have a source on this? It just seems, intuitively, that the amount of microplastics from fishing nets would be minuscule compared to other "trash-related" sources.

I think you will find that if there are eyeballs, there are brands interested in advertising. Examples include: The Pirate Bay, 4chan, pornhub, etc.

Yes, is this some anti-Turkish or pro-Turkish argument? I am not sure what is going on here.

I have a suspicion that certain low-quality posts get employees with accounts to upvote and comment. I believe that this is one of them and two other big-offenders are Cloudflare and CockroachDB

I think you will agree this is not a normal name. I can see a bit of an issue with innocently naming your OS app the same as something else that is already established but you were unaware of. Ok. Maybe that person even is happy to get that

fyi, I am not sure why but you will get downvoted to oblivion for asking this very reasonable question. Obviously it is a bad idea. You as IT head: "Hi Managerial members! Can you approve my budget increase for CockroachDB?" Them:

Proctorio's support is also fucking absurd! It reflects their CEO's attitude in that article. I had an issue where their plugin, which only worked on chrome at the time IDK if that has changed, stopped working. And I had about 1 h

I feel that this is something that Cloudflare has had a major hand in. Back in the day, they claimed (stupidly) that tor users where rife with DDoS attacks. This, of course, was a naked money grab by CF to scare non-technical site owners in

I have never had a company adjust me down, based on where I live! I mean, wtf is it to them if I choose to commute 2hrs each way to and from work to save money? Why should they dock me for how I spend money that I earn?
