Maybe a little off the topic, but I was thinking just the other day that Alexa/Google Home/Siri could be made significantly better if it accepted instructions the way ChatGPT does.
Look for "Object Storange" for instance and in the row will be links to all the competing services, so you could pretty easily do this to learn about competitors through the one you know... At least for the big players.
Generally refers to the idea that a microservice should be designed to scale horizontally (with more instances) vs. vertically (more compute power). If you can scale horizontally you're more likely to be able to meet changes demand at a lower price.
In firefox, if I put something in the search box, press enter, it will search. If I press enter a second time (taking no other action) it will display json.
Kind of a tangent, but I was traveling in Portugal last year, and one day as I was headed to a train station I felt my phone buzz. I picked it up and it had a failed Bluetooth file transfer. In the settings, the device name had changed from the default to what looked like a base64 string, if I remember correctly. Unfortunately I didn't think to screenshot anything.
The phone was literally only a couple weeks old. Nothing new had been paired. I changed the name back and figured I would look it up later. The failed file transfer was automatically cleared (just a phone thing) and I wasn't able to find information about it.
I think about this from time to time -- how people build up this sense of personality related to a forum or site. I think what tends to happen for an individual is that when you're talking to millions of people you don't have the perspective on who says what anymore, it becomes "twitter thinks" or "reddit says" instead of "these 10 people."
I think the reason everybody knows everything is that because we don't look at the individuals when we talk in a forum like this. There are always going to be some 'famous' people whose names pop up over and over, but as general responses you don't really know what a person thinks about something. We internalize a consensus of opinions and then it becomes just "well, HN said this."
This is most apparent when the forum contradicts itself. If there isn't another way to denote the opinions (like a sub-forum) then you start seeing comments like "everyone was against it yesterday and now everyone is in favor?" when in reality it's unlikely to be the same people responding anyway.
I agree and was curious why they picked it. I guess their reasoning is as good as any.
> Steem is a form of esteem, which means to prize or value. Steem is also a homophone for steam, which is frequently associated with power, and a step further, steam powered trains gave influence to English idioms, such as ‘this conversation is picking up steam.’ The associations with prizing, language and empowerment only felt right.
Not that this is really any help, but an acquaintance of mine works for HPE and notified he was being laid off yesterday, and his last day is today. He was with HP (now HPE) for maybe 4-6 years.
Is there any reason why people were (seemingly) expecting this, or was it just an idea that gained momentum that AMD never actually suggested or considered?
It seems it's more nuanced. Try the following searches:

One thing I found especially interesting is toward the end, where Katie Couric sits down with Renée Richards and Hari Nef. It was interesting seeing Hari talk with Renée and realize they disagree on the binary topic.
Nothing in my department yet, but we actually have a guy actively looking for a reason to implement some kind of ML so we can say our product "has it" I guess.
I don't kid myself into thinking I'm doing anything meaningful here, but to have so much of process put so bluntly is eye opening. I suppose it's comforting to know that it's so common it could be put into a list like this.
