I only want to retrieve my luggage, my child

I’m gonna keep deadnaming his company for as long as he keeps deadnaming his kid

Oh my god yes

I think a big part of the issue is that the Chinese market is fucking huge, and the Chinese market also seems to love gimmicky software crap in their cars, and often emphasizes that over hardware features and other general aspects of, you know, being a car. It’s an unfortunate and obnoxious case of carmakers following the money.

Your comment belies your lack of understanding of yesterday’s SCOTUS decision.

Too bad SCOTUS just ruled that US government regulatory agencies are essentially meaningless a day or two ago

Huh. Even more layers of fuck. That’s awful :(

Wow. That is an angle I was not aware of, and it definitely makes the situation even more shitty.

It is difficult for me to express how little I care about Hillary or what she thinks these days

It’s highly dependent on the application.

For instance, I could absolutely see having certain models with LPCAMM expandability as a great move for Apple, particularly in the pro segment, so they’re not capped by whatever they can cram into their monolithic SoCs. But for most consumer (that is, non-engineer/non-developer users) applications, I don’t see them making it expandable.

Or more succinctly: they should absolutely put LPCAMM in the next generation of MBPs, in my opinion.

Oh man I hope he strokes the fuck out

It’s targeting Castro because the Cuban expat community in Florida does NOT like Castro, and this is a good ad to get them thinking in the right direction (for arguably the wrong reasons).

I am suspicious they realized that they weren’t going to be able to make a loophole for themselves - I’ve seen several articles in the last week on how they were trying to do that.

While I nominally agree, there are some situations and contexts in which an on-call rotation is not only appropriate, but the responsible thing to do.

That said, on-call people should get special compensation/rewards/perks, because being on call sucks.

We don’t really decide who we get to vote for for president. The GOP and DNC pick “their people”, and then the people who aren’t exhausted by the concept try to pick the least bad one of the two choices.

Oh my god please no

DARPA is going to have to play with this for a while before it gets to a point where it’s actually useful to the general public. And they are playing with it.

So the way MS is using it is incredibly dumb, but hardware wise, it’s just a NN-optimized tile on the CPU. That is going to be a great thing for democratizing access to serious machine learning hardware. In that respect, it’s actually pretty awesome, despite the fact that It’s annoying that the initiative is tied so closely to MS.

It is unfortunately one of the darker aspects of the hyper-growth-focused tech and engineering is the often highly mercenary/transactional nature of many people in the field. Like, there’s a reason Facebook pays engineers 250-400k or more. Sure, the work can be difficult, but most of the time it’s not that difficult. They’re paying people that much so that they ignore their morals, shut the fuck up, and just take the paycheck and do the work that is helping to destroy society.

It’s immensely distressing to me as a software engineer. I am fully aware that my morality is limiting my earning potential, and that makes me kinda furious - not so much at myself, but that our economic system is set up in such a way that that’s not only possible, but optimal (in terms of earning a nice paycheck and being able to retire somewhat early).
