Sure let’s just centralize hardware attestation to Microsoft’s cloud tied to a Microsoft account with keys you can’t change what could possibly go wrong? This is all publicly documented by Microsoft you just need to translate their doublesp

> At an event this week, OpenAI CFO Sarah Friar seemed to suggest that the government could act as a “backstop” for the company’s commitments She said the quiet part out loud? This was always the play, it is obvious. Too big to fail.

Would love to know which LLMs you’re using because every single one I’ve used has been hot garbage that can’t do anything beyond joining a couple tables and fails miserably at basic GROUP BY/COUNT aggregates. Window functions? Fugget

Yes. I’d consider myself an “intermediate” DBA but I can command an insane salary and I have people tripping over themseves to hire me. Nobody cares about SQL until it takes 15 seconds to load your user facing login dashboard.

How am I supposed to know if something is worth investing in if I can’t even use it? A pinky promise that maybe I’ll be able to get one someday isn't a good deal. I want to know what I am getting when I put my money in. Maybe if I w
