I had a Macintosh Quadra 660AV that had 16MB of RAM and was able to edit multiple-gigabytes of video. Not everything needs to be in memory all of the time to effectively edit video in a non-linear fashion.

The situation is even worse if you happened to move to a US territory because you're in a quasi-unemployable zone since US companies won't hire in most of the territories (I have never been given a specific reason) and the EU basi

I've been migrating away from google with their recent changes because it's gotten less and less useful in getting me the answers. DDG has done better, but it's not as good as Google used to be before it was taken over by MBA

Maybe you can try showing how LLMs score better than human intelligence and what metrics you're using to quantify that, and then refuting his arguments with research and supporting evidence. Right now your take looks like you're a

Personal experience trying to get hired as a US citizen in a US territory. Most companies simply reject without any sort of interview and when I ask (and get a reply) it's always because of location.

After 4 years as an apprentice digging ditches by hand, if you got lucky enough to find a company that would hire someone fresh out of school (because none of them hire fresh off the street without some kind of related experience).

Unless you're looking to be hired in the US and live in a US territory, in which case you'll be hard pressed to find any employer who will hire you.

Good to see a $2T market cap company doesn't have enough revenue to retrain and reassign these employees. I'd hate to think what the shareholders would have to endure had they not done layoffs.

Your first link doesn't show what you think it does, but there are quite a number of articles about Musk losing advertisers on Twitter (and even telling them to go f themselves). Your second link on Tesla clearly indicates the downward

You'd think for all the lip-service given to how employees are their most valuable resource they would at least consider re-training. Some developers (myself included) have zero interest in LLM-hype train and would gladly take a severa

You can setup a Google app automation to do this for you. I did for e.g. knowbe4 since all their test emails have the same header information. It made it quite easy to never see any of their attempts, though I did have to check every once i
