It's even worse than that. L > H > A, but that's for the data center cards. If you want the latest Ada Lovelace core in a workstation card, that's an RTX 4000 Ada Edition series (and it does not use the old Quadro nam

I don't think it's a weird comparison at all: households include dual-income-no-kids households too, and they would skew the average higher. To raise a family in the Bay Area one parent has to stay home, or a lot of money has to

Yeah, everyone on this site and places like Blind says they are making a lot of money. Reality seems a bit different. Any startup has something of a hard cap at just around $200k salary for a senior. That's in the Bay Area, and for

I think everyone is a lot more political, but of course not everyone is on the same side. There are people who are fully bought in to what the Russian media is telling them. They sing Putin's praises and think he will lead them to gre

However terrible this may sound, and however misplaced, there is a newfound sense of national pride. In the 90s and 00s Russians felt like they were behind the West and wanted to emulate western culture. A common sentiment was "sadly

Where you think they should live as adults. That's the reason to stay in the rat race at a HCOL area. If the kids grow up local they'll have a built in network, and have the right attitude to make it as the next generation on th

I think your Russian travels were a long time ago. The vibe is very different now.

Looking out for the little guy is an American value? Walmart and Amazon warehouse employees would like a word with those mythical Americans.

What was the purpose of the anecdote about the superwoman in the beginning? Put up this impossibly perfect human on a pedestal and then say "but you should think you have worth as you are", and "that's easy"?

Moving somewhere would be an experience in itself and would teach you to see the world a bit differently. The main thing is people around the world are not that different. You know how the majority around you seems to think Russia is figh

Western respect for the law has more nuance than it first appears. It is unquestioning respect for whoever says what the law shall be. Or maybe: once something is law it cannot be questioned. Example 1: the Bidens very conveniently charge

Most Russians would disagree with you. The worst time (economically) for the vast majority of people was peak friendliness with the West under Yeltsin. Economically Russia was actually doing very well just before 2022.

It might be difficult to believe, but in the 1990s the people of Russia truly wanted to be in Europe (kind of like Ukrainians do now). That sentiment is now gone, and it's not (just) due to propaganda. The common people believe that

So the fear is that we'll all be unemployed and spend our days watching AI-generated Netflix. But the thing is, now that Netflix has exceeded a certain threshold of shovelware TV shows there is less desire than ever to watch any of th

Was going to post the same thing. I had a new construction townhouse in the Bay Area that had Ethernet. The max speed was either 10 or 100 Mbps depending on which jack was used. Opened up the jacks to discover that the cables were stripp

Police not giving a shit actually has a reason. I know that many officers quit SFPD because they grew tired of the DA not prosecuting anything. Criminals know this and openly taunt cops. So the best cops who actually cared have quit the
