I was about to say I haven't hit these yet, and I somehow haven't in my work use so far. But I was asking about tweaking and optimizing my workout routine, and it got flagged as a safety violation. Utter clown show.

Companies put a ton of work into proprietary RAM training algorithms that I think would be hard to replicate. I know AMD has open sourced their older pre-Zen BIOS and that has made its way into coreboot, but Zen1+ is all proprietary.

Last time I bought a chromebook it was horribly locked down, I couldn't even install my own OS. Has that changed?

Lots of "digital cash" books there. I have to say that Bitcoin and Ethereum have not lived up to their cypherpunk ethos.

No, it's definitely financial. Something along the lines of SpaceX's valuation only making sense if it replaces the entire productivity of white collar workforce of the entire USA with its AI ventures. If it ends up reaching escap

I have read as much as I can on the history of C++ and I'm looking forward to watch this. I find the process of it's evolution deeply fascinating.

It's been a long time since I messed around with this stuff, proprietary JTAG devices and debuggers used to be leaps and bounds ahead of open source ones. Is it still the same?

I was going to scoff at the amount of interview prep you said is required but then I remembered I read the book written by the founders of my current company before the interview.

I had the same thought. "I didn't get hired at X! I didn't get hired at Y!" It's like how people write ex-Google, ex-Amazon in their headlines but worse: failed-OpenAI, couldn't-get-in-to-Anthropic. Let's
