Where’d this website come from all a sudden? Maybe it’s been around, but the toddy time I noticed it was last week, and now every other article on this sub is from it?

I got one from Walmart like 18 months ago, wasn’t even an NVMe drive. They sent a SATA drive that was only 128gb in brand new packaging.

Listen, plastic straw bans are silly and performative, but try to get some semblance of a grip.

Reply to comment by bitfriend6 in Say Goodbye to Coding: Microsoft Launches Power Platform Copilot by newzee1
Most of the work that software engineers do has been done before. It’s all just web forms and fairly simple algorithms (yes I am over simplifying). The difficult part is making it maintainable by using best practices and AI can do that today. We are only a few years away from AI being able to make a Reddit clone on its own. A few years after that AI will be able to make one virtually free of bugs, scaling challenges, and security vulnerabilities.
Fortunately after AI takes over the “simple tasks”, software engineers will be left with more challenging tasks like making sure what AI is doing is what is best for us and how to make outcomes less predictable and thus less easily gamed.

This is the problem I have with my kid who is 7. When he has to stop playing games or watching shows he tells me everything is boring and doesn't know what to do. He recently got in trouble at school and we took away screen time for a bit. Now he entertains himself and is playing with toys that have collected dust. We are working on a plan to reintroduce game/screen time but want to balance it with other play time.
I notice his attitude is generally worse if we had a day with a lot of screen time and much better with no screen time. We don't want to completely remove video games from him but he doesn't make it easy. Best of luck with figuring it out with your kids.

My Samsung SSD 970 EVO is made in china. I am the reference.
(No, it's not fake. Yes, it performs on par with the expected benchmarks)

China is producing Samsung products? I’m gonna need a reference for that.

They're going about it in the wrong and destructive way. You don't need to outlaw AI copyright in order to protect human-interests. AI intellectual rights have long-term ramifications that prevent conflict while human-jobs have short-term ramifications. They're not meant to exist at the expense of the other. Both human-jobs and AI intellectual rights can both co-exist together.

Reply to comment by LifeIsNotFairOof in Qualcomm Is Poised to Dominate EVs Before Apple Gets a Chance by OutlandishnessOk2452
What we know of it so far looks about like an M1. It’s unlikely it will match an M2, and it will show up on the market after the M3 (not just a few months). Don’t they know you’re supposed to lead a target? They aimed at two years behind.
Their big problem will be heat. Apple’s M are throttled by heat in small devices, and so will theirs. If you see a big score, find out what kind of device it was on. Don’t compare a desktop Q chip with an Apple laptop or tablet.

It's a shame, the 970 po is my favorite NvME drive drive to date. I slap a PCIe adaptor on it and replaced all my of the flash storage for my servers.

It's time to move past copyright.
We have been living as single interconnected cells since the dawn of the internet and now AI faces us with the truth: what's made by a human belongs to humanity. We are cells in a larger organism.
You can disagree with this but you can't disagree with the fact that keeping up the legislation in the future will be near impossible.

Imagine if something like adding jokes to serious texts becomes a legitimate way to authenticate your articles, as AI wouldn't do that

My legit 980 Pro didn’t even last a full year and Samsung had such a mess of a supply chain at the time they just refunded my purchase instead of honoring the 5-year warranty. Can’t imagine these fakes will be any more reliable…

Also just found out legitimate 980 Pro (mostly 2TB version) have a serious firmware error. Download samsung magician software direct from samsung website and it will tell you on the console if you need to update firmware.
I just saw than my SSD purchased Feb *2022 was running the bad firmware version

I always tell people “my parents used to put us in front of a tv as a babysitter, the iPad is the same thing” I think they both can do damage if overused, like anything else

We are seeing impacts to both, but you are right: especially to attention and self-entertainment skills. I work in elementary, but colleagues say it’s especially bleak in the secondary grades with students that require constant stimulation and who struggle to stay attentive and engaged long enough to manage complex tasks. I have also heard that one of the side-effects of this constant need for stimulation and stimulation-to-cope is affecting kids ability to self-regulate. We ARE seeing a dramatic increase in violent/anti-social behavior in elementary schools.
We really need to get our arms around this problem because iPad parenting isn’t going away, nor should the use of technology in our lives be shunned. The future is going to be won through the development and application of new and beneficial technologies. Parents should be taught the risks and pitfalls so that we can shift the ways we raise children in our culture.

Thiel is a technofacist and Facebook to him is a social experiment related to Girardian conflict theory, he admitted that openly. Man wants to use social media to start a war.
