Who would want to do this? Is it aimed at people who own rokus?

I’m finding it hard to understand why I’d write something for this instead of well anything else really.

Presumably nvidia will be somehow integrating arm CPUs into their graphics cores and making some sort of high end machine out of it.

Interesting but it’s really unclear what I’d use this for or how.

It needs some tangible examples.

It’s also not clear the difference between deno and this, if there is one.

This comes across as a lazy attempt to find business ideas.

I anticipated cricket stumps and cricket bats, an all-in brawl at the wickets, and umpires wearing white.

The first rule of cricket club - no one talks about cricket club.

The biggest lesson here is the threat is within, but most security strategies focus on the concept of external threat.

So this company has pretty much infinite money but they can’t get or make chips.

Huh. Don’t know what to make of that.

I’ve never lied or stretched the truth with my career.

My mother said to me once “The only thing you have in this world is your reputation. Don’t ruin it.”

Off topics but it’s pretty interesting that Nile crocodiles are now in Florida.

They’re big and they eat people.

I may be a prude but it’s a real concern to me when people lie as part of their work/career.

If you were lying at the start of your career, you’re probably still lying now? Maybe?

I don’t know. Maybe I should loosen up. Maybe I’m boring old school… maybe lying a bit to get your first job is what everyone does (except me).

It’s not about fixing things.

It’s about the fact that it’s ok for people to be very rich, as long as they pay their fair share.

If they don’t pay their fair share then there’s good reason to argue there shouldn’t be ultra wealthy people. Then they’re just exploitative leeches on society.

I find it really hard to understand why the rich don’t make it easier on themselves by being responsible members of society instead of relentlessly focusing on keeping poor people poor.

Pay some taxes, contribute to roads and schools and hospitals.

It wouldn’t matter, IF they paid some appropriate tax level. But they don’t. So it does matter.
