Sure, but I just mean sending artificial load to see where you tip over.

Are load tests not a standard thing people do any more?

Until the GS salary cap is something that doesn't look like a bad offer from a decade ago, it'll be extremely hard to swallow the pay cut of working for the feds. I get the "public service" discount, but it'd have t

I personally work on something written in C and we use bog standard gcc. But when you have 10+ variations to build, tests to run, etc, the parallelism you can get from a bunch of cores makes an enormous difference.

What is a professor's job other than revenue? Instead of selling a product, they have to beg for money instead. Alternatively, they sell their research. Publish or perish. Raise enough money for the school or you're out.

Except this is the opposite of the actual problem. There's plenty of cash floating around right now: it's why inflation is high. We're finally hitting real supply limits. It's the hottest job market in most people's

It's authoritarian vs libertarian (the vertical axis on the classic political compass) rather than left vs right.

AWS was just an easily accessible example. Sub in OVH if you prefer, I'm sure they have similar options for similar prices.

With the RPi availability situation, it's probably easier to find the retro laptop than the Pi!

Yeah, he's been real oppressed. He gets to impose his "non-approved" views on over 300 million people with no accountability. Give me a break.

I get the different values part, but even if I set aside the "as an American" free speech issues, 150 hours of community service seems WAY over what's necessary. That's nearly a month of full time work!

10 minutes of a c6i.32xlarge costs less than a dollar at on-demand rates in the us-east-2 AWS region. That'll get you 128 vCPUs and 256 gb of memory. I think people put up with a lot of stuff that there's no reason to any more wit

When LLVM doesn't support your platform :( Granted, that means no Rust support today so probably not relevent to most people reading this thread, but yeah I'm still salty :|

Kind of ironic for a language that was the first that I know about where you can straight up import libraries with a URL directly in your source.

Notably, no language will ever be able to catch pure logic errors by itself. The computer can't and shouldn't try to divine what you meant. It'll only do what it's told. Now, there are certainly advantages different la

Calling it a cover up is a clear opinion, not a statement of fact. Just the fact that there's a debate about what cover up even means goes to that.

Now I'm wondering who's managed to pull off supply chain attacks on dice, since I'm sure it's happened already.

The extreme version of this is using an HSM, and putting one in a safe deposit box.

I agree with the sibling comment, but there's also a practical reason: I don't want to have to track down everyone that needs assistance and make a personal decision about who needs what. It's much more efficient to have a ta

Note the OP said the inspectors were privatized, not the actual building codes. The only difference is the private inspectors sound like they'll let you skate by on some stuff. You find the same dynamic in states with private emissions

Mark this one up as something else that's been privatized in the UK that's shocking to me as an American. This sort of stuff is always run through the government (the level depends on the state). Insurance companies might impose a
