Yet these leaders sit on Twitter all day engaging in petty nonsense, but demand 12 hr days from workers. How productive are they during those 12 hrs?

How do people with elderly parents, or young kids or other responsibilities outside of work deal with such awful schedules?

Great work, op. As others have said, encryption is vital to such a project. In fact if your ethos is privacy, it would be great marketing material to assure users that this is in fact resistant to basic infiltration. I think recall is a fantastic idea, even for professionals and corporate env. But the kind of sensitive information that is handled by employees cannot risk being leaked from such a tool.

That's not the point, though. It's not how generous he is with his money. It's how he sees money, its purpose in his life. People who see wealth as a force multiplier don't gorm habits of being careless with it. Just like you see people who have no money live pay check to pay check, take on debt just to assume a class they don't exist in. Yet you used to see Bezos in a camry and Buffet in some equally run of the mill car. It's because these people place value on everything, a car to themis just depreciating numbers. They formed a habit of critically assessing the "why".

Back to the topic at hand: Tipping is a ridiculous notion that the wealthy can see through, while the rest of us are too brainwashed to objectively analyze

Til 7z posts quarterly sources in archives. We'll that's a bit sketchy

And I thought I was once a clever 15 year old... this was brilliant. Sharp kid.

Though his pondering of 'why do companies use third party support systems instead of rolling their own' gave his age away :)

See the comment below yours answered in fewer words and provided more information. Berating people to read something is just noise. Improve the SNR

For one, we don't have to pay for basic amenities like security and alerts. To heck with gouging the customer for basic feature sets. Aws have their faults, but enabling teams to get the whole elastic experience without the weird nickle and diming is a blessing. Good on Amazon and boo elastic.

When it comes to fruitful discussions that leaves one with satisfaction and contentment, this ain't it. This is the polar opposite. Cheers

If we've learned anything from the security cam and baby cam scandals, then it's that convenience is king and we as a society would rather risk everything than be arsed to take few additional steps to setup/learn something to prevent such basic breaches. We (the society) don't even want to change the default password on most things.

But why? Why testing with real payment methods is a bad idea for stripe?

That's genuinely creative. I mean the execution, not the act itself. Imagine spending hours in a darkroom to create passable smut and knowing there's a market for that. I guess it's true that any new tech will have one of its first applications dedicated to tickling our monkey brains

Being out of the loop for awhile. Has amd made anything similar to cuda? Are cots frameworks such as pytorch and tensorflow on par when running on amd hardware? What makes investing in amd cluster/chips worthwhile?

Problem with Google summed up. Ethics and pseudo sciences folks wanting to opinionate technology. That's akin to a kitchen knife refusing to cut gift wrapping paper because that's inappropriate use of a knife. The silliness

Impressive that the launch vehicle broke away from the static fire restraints so cleanly and evenly that it was a vertical launch. What were they holding it down with? Skipping rope?

CISO and people in his office (the so-called cyber security experts) are nothing but report pushers. They run vulnerability scans on code, and whatever comes back from packages like Tenable, they send to everyone to justify their own existence. They don't consider the severity, they don't consider snd differentiate between attack surfaces and attack vectors. They just hound you and your superiors in the name of insurance liabilities... they suck. They turn developers into hounds that harass other developers for fixes. Out goes the desire to work on a software because all you're doing is patching nonsense every day because some ciso somewhere is unsatisfied. To hell with each and every ciso. Security is important and having cyber folks that have programming background is even more important. Mindless lemmings otherwise.

Without first-class CUDA translation or cross compile, AMD is just throwing more transistors at the void
