I am talking about "forum-like" websites not static web pages. The article is about fediverse

The problems are bots spamming, or attacking to gather PI. Too much effort. We can't have nice things anymore

I was one of them. I won't do it now. Security threats have become so time consuming nowadays to handle.

Have you ever tried moka? It absolutely doesn't taste neither like an espresso or filtered coffee

Wow!

What about the flaming and jelly windows? That was cool stuff

ML/AI is a huge field. If you don't like 1 side of it, there are millions others.

Go to north of Italy. They literally votes for uncultured swines for leading them (lega, forza Italia...). During the covid emergency the person in lead of public health thought that you need three people in a room to get covid, simply because he doesn't understand primary school level math... They have been led by the most ignorant people in Italy. Salvini, fontana, gallera, Formigoni, bossi, Berlusconi, Calderoli. Compared to these people, DeSantis is an intellectual

Good human

ML/AI. Everything else has been eaten by agile/product owners/MBAs/micromanagement. Luckily those people still don't understand AI... And AI is still stochastic, pi planning and burnout charts don't work.

If agile bites your ass... Run away, you are too young for wasting your life

You don't really need to tune the operating system, you just need a good one. The hpc crowd has a pretty unique perspective. You won't find anyone doing any real hpc on windows, not even Microsoft

When I talk about hpc, I don't talk about a script in Matlab. I talk about the work you do on supercomputers, real computing intensive jobs that takes weeks or months on hundreds or thousands of processors. I guess you don't find benchmarks simply because no one uses windows, same reason you probably don't find a fiat panda in the Nürburgring rankings.

Tbf, on Linux performances for hpc are better even on standard desktop distros, no need to clean it up. It manages resources and jobs much better. For performances that is the critical part, once the code is optimized.

No no, it is better. Take a real hpc library, install debian and test it yourself. No tweak needed. Linux as kernel and the overall OS manages resources much better. Linux is a better kernel than windows kernel.

I've been doing hpc for over 15 years now. People install standard distros on their workstations and clusters. No tweak needed

All scientific computing is built on top of fortran. Even cutting edge AI runs on top of high performance libraries written in fortran and c. Simply there is less need for fortran developers because high performance subroutines are wrapped to be called by higher level languages, such as python

One comment to add to your post, Linux is better on performances not just because of the less overhead, but because manages resources much effectively. You could have a bloated linux, it still would perform better because resources are properly managed

Could be both. Who knows. For high performance computing Linux is the de facto standard because it has better performances than windows, and Linux distros are usually better, stabler OSes overall when one needs raw performances. In this case, who knows, someone should investigate further

First time I see "cool" and "c#" on the same sentence. I've always thought stereotype of c# is that it is the language for corporate, extremely uncool projects.

Just a comment. Cobol nowadays is heavily outsourced. There are jobs but not so lucrative as in the past. Fortran is still strong in scientific computing, but nowadays it is wrapped in python. All people I know who were strong in fortran (me included) are nowadays mostly working with python or scala, most of us on ML/AI related stuff.

They missed the recording where he said to the female journalist in his team: "to work here you have to f*ck"

I haven't read in details, but I believe this is an hardware issue, more than a strictly browser issue. They'll probably mitigate it on the browser side though

It looks to me pretty clear that they are talking about all the passwords stored in the browser.
