Same here. For me, not only has the CEO been erratic as all heck, the tech has stalled out and I don’t see any improvements and the other car manufacturers are quickly catching up and in some cases surpassed Tesla.
It’s really sad to see the company fall so badly, so quickly but that’s what you get when you let a completely unhinged person be in charge without checks. Still nice to see his money at least kick start the EV industry to where it is today, good and bad.
Yup, got my last two 10 TB drives from checking there. Shame all of these stores fronts are making it harder to aggregate data but they sure like to gather up ours with or without permission.
I thought about it but man that uncertainty still spooks me a bit. Plus I’m looking for larger drives at this point since my current home server is pretty full up on SATA connections and hdd drive space. Maybe one of these days when I can afford a full on rack system.
Man, this is really kind of annoying that the old price aggregate sites like Shucks.top aren’t working anymore. I did flop between pcpartpicker, disk prices, and just searching the sites directly and found a 16 and 18 TB WD drive for 219/285 respectively so ~14/16 dollars per TB respectively. Guess I’ll just have to go with the 16 because I’m cheap and need storage very soon.
I do know that Seagate announced HD price hikes because of “AI” related demand but who really knows.
Given how Linux support for steam has been going I’ve just started migrating everything and just popping in to windows when I have something that doesn’t work.
It’d love to be called not burdened with a completely unrealistic software development plan.
As a required reviewer on a lot of things, I envy that bear so, so much.
Which once removed and put into the recycling, the plastic bottle will then go live a long life in the landfill.
Saying you should be able to clone and own your AI girlfriend still sounds very wrong.
Streaming was nice while it lasted but these companies have survived looking enough too become the villains they sought to replace. Sad but fuck them and hoist the sails I say.
I think what’s missing is the malicious compliance right after these conversations that many of us engineers have.
Engineer: Sure captain, I’ll do what you ask but I’m going to need you to send me a communique stating that this is what you want me to do.
I’ve found that powershell doesn’t play nice with many command line developer tools so cmd it is.
Oh yeah, fun fact, in my former and current job every year we get invited to a town halls with some executive and every year we hear the complaints that we can’t keep employees.
Every year I ask the same question, “We keep hearing that we have a attrition problem so why do we keep chasing the industry standard for pay and benefits, why can’t we adjust our pay scale and promotion process to actual reward performance to actually keep our high performers?”
Every year, is a non-answer, nothing changes, we lose good people and only keep our industry standard people.
Though it was funny that since I’m on multiple projects/teams I did get the same speil multiple times from the same person and the third time in two years I got called I didn’t even have to ask before I got the boiler plate.
I had the same first reaction and just thought, huh art imitating art, we’ve come full circle.
Pretty sure this racist, illegitimate court, knew what they were doing in ruling that religious beliefs override protected classes, including those in the Civil Rights act. The Klan is a religion after all.
What a unwavering free speech absolutist that he claims he is.
