Years ago I interviewed for Amazon. I found out that on a desired team size of 8, there were only 3 left, where the other 5 who were no longer there, as I was told, were poor performers. I didn't take the job.

Oh yikes, these people are ill and legitimately need help.

Yea they were absolutely exhausted in terms of economics and demographics but it is so much more than that too which the article touches on. The lands in the middle east changed hands so many times that you had a generation be born and grow

Are you suggesting a general solution to the halting problem?

Hard disagree. While they had lost a ton of ground people were still sporting blackberries in large numbers. The absolute bone headed move they did is they continued to promote and sell their legacy models front and centre cannibalizing the

The government giving money to corporations without ownership is communism now? I think you may be thinking about nationalism and some other things adjacent to that...

Check out Bevy. https://bevyengine.org/ It has the best ECS design I've ever seen for a game engine. Super fun to use. Currently no editor and you need to wrap your head around ECS, but it will definitely push you to i

What? DOTS is great and extremely performant. CS2 is completely the fault of the developers. The real issue with Unity is that they don't double down on DOTS + HDRP/URP. I have not opened the editor for a few months but last time

Westinghouse is owned by Brookfield Renewable Partners and Cameco. Cameco is the second largest uranium producer in the world. Brookfield Renewable Partners owns and operates a lot of power generation. Both are Canadian where there is a hug

I hard disagree. The chassis and cooler designs of the old intel based macs sandbagged the performance a great deal. They were already building a narrative to their investors and consumers that a jump to in house chip design was necessary.

No it's not normal, they are talking a bit out of their ass. Based on their dates, I'm significantly younger than them and yet I was able to afford a house in one of the more desirable neighbourhoods with only me being the one wor

I'm 99% sure the person you are replying to was saying that tongue in cheek / sarcastically.

Our entire economic model globally is built around scarcity, either real or artificial. You remove that and we are in one hell of an upheaval.

Just curious how you are certain of the better performance and behaviour of Oracle given that Oracle does not allow disclosing of benchmarks without prior consent from them?
15.
by Tsarbomb 4y ago
They for some reason are refusing to prove the affirmative of their statement that there are things Oracle can do that Postgres cannot; which leads back to my original question, that they may simply not know Postgres.

Picking one of your previous comments at random where you use the examples of pattern matching and analytic functions... yea postgresql does that too.

I wonder if there are any bits of Quake 2 code still left over in CS:GO I know Carmack made a comment that HL2 did have bits of Q2 in it.

Not to poop all over what you said, but I went through the history of some the previous comments you made to communicate the power and features of Oracle and I have simple question to ask you: Is it possible you are unfamiliar with the full

Stupid question, if you already are at the edge of max heap size for allowing compressed OOPs, can increasing ReservedCodeCacheSize kick you into 64 bit uncompressed land?

I've seen this in action professionally and it drove me up the wall. At a previous job I had to spec out some hardware procurement on the order of a million dollars over two years, and all of my compute was based around AMD EPYC. The a

Having once worked in the EMR/EHR space, a big thing to consider is some companies come in with their own workflows, processes, and ideas that they want to push onto physicians while other companies are way more accommodating in build

My bluetooth headphones will always change to left side only when reconnecting. If I accidentally walk to far from my laptop and come back, same deal. It is absolutely wild this bug exists.

It's wild how many people don't understand this. To help spell it out for those who keep misunderstanding, when the Queen visited the USA in 2010, she did it as Queen of Canada, under the Canadian flag, with Canadian staff and sec

She has been Queen of Canada for 45% of Canada's existence as an independent nation. Wild.

As the other reply mentioned they are testing against the M2, and they are also testing the lower powered AMD part 6850U which does best the M2 in some tests. Not sure why you came out so strong with such a false statement.

Personally the only limitation I found with the 4th version was when not actively cooling it. Experience was great until it throttled.

With a tanking economy, brain drain, deteriorating rocket quality, and lacking critical technologies like the Canadarm, how on earth do they expect to build their own space station unless it is going to be a tiny single module station.
