If people are constantly running to HR in your midst then you might not be the mentor you think you are.

No one's mad at you. You just switched your arguments.

As for why pay for access when you can get on free tiers? Well, because the pay models are far far better than the free ones. That's it.

Your argument was not to get into a long term commitment because then you might have to wait a year to be able to use the best model again...not that you could get by using a rotating cast of free tier AI models...

I don’t associate any of these AI limitations and mischaracterizations with Marcus. Do you?

Since when is dissemination of publicly facing information considered political action under the Hatch Act? The latter requires the person to use their influence or be on duty for it to count. The raids being reported by the app aren’t using insider information, they’re in progress and out in the open.

This situation is pretty clear cut. The administration isn’t being coy about purging anyone they think might be less than blindly loyal.

Can you explain what you mean by subtyping and if/how it negates the usefulness of repurposing (if that’s what you meant to say). Wouldn’t subtyping complement a drug repurposing screen by allowing the scientist to test compounds against a subset of a disease?

And drug repurposing is also used for conditions with no known molecular basis like autism. You’re not suggesting its usefulness is limited in those cases right?

Maybe, maybe not. At power levels high enough to be therapeutic you’re gonna want to think about cooling.

It’s not discriminatory at all! Or even the point OP is trying to make. Taking a significant number of jobs and outsourcing them overnight will quickly result in running out the talent pool in said country. It’s shortsighted and stupid because it assumes that there is an army of developers just sitting around standing by waiting for the next western tech company to give them high paying remote jobs. A large portion of that talent pool is already reserved by the biggest corporations.

Build up to it and foster growth in your overseas teams and you’ll do well. Thinking you can transform your department overnight _is_ a great way to boost your share price, cash out on a fat payday and walk away before your product quality tanks.

Or scalpers won’t be dissuaded and street price for a 5090 will be $3200 or more. $1500 was already an insane price tag for scalpers to pay but they did it anyways.

DLSS in cyberpunk has a lot of issues. Faces look weird, tons of ghosting, hair and particle effects looking very jagged.

Same. Certain subscriptions I won't touch if I couldn't go through it with icloud. nytimes and nytimes cooking were up there as the worst offenders.

> In practice abolishing Chevron deference mostly means rules will follow the politics of judges rather than the current administration. TBH I think this rule is far enough from the culture war that it will probably stand anyway. Unless the NYT happens to buy the judges a lot of vacations...

I want to agree with you but the vote was split down party lines completely with 2 dissenters being republican.

New comment by heyoni in "Working from home is powering productivity"

Every system in place for measuring output and bringing transparency to work done by office workers/software developers finally make sense in the context of working from home.

Either your tickets get done or you have a really good explanation for why they haven't but because you dug into the problem are able to display deep knowledge of the problem.

Discipline has nothing to do with this. Your work will have expectations and deadlines and they will either be met or another human being will grade you with an F. Whatever human trait causes people to do work under those circumstances might be shame, fear, social pressure manifesting itself as work output, I can say for certain it isn't discipline.
