And then, inevitably:

Those kind of cables:

I recently saw someone put an old.school “yellow red white” cable (no idea how they’re actually called) in a jack socket from a PC to a Jack TV port.

It seems not complicated to me, but apparently it is ¯_(ツ)_/¯

I manage instances of both mongo and postgres at work.

I’ll say Mongo OpsManager is pretty sweet, and HA is way easier on Mongo.

For linux only, lan only shared drive NFS is probably the easiest you’ll get, it’s made for that usecase.

If you want more of a dropbox/onedrive/google drive experience, Syncthing is really cool too, but that’s a whole other architecture qhere you have an actual copy on all machines.

You are totally right, I tend to forget most people often don’t know the difference!

Im curious, did you watch the video?

This specific case does seem to be using AI as opposed to classical algorithms and did see an incredible boost in efficiency.

I mean, tech is tech: how we use it is the defining factor.

AI as a whole can have positive impacts: the incredible leaps from the medical field in protein folding being a good example: https://youtu.be/P_fHJIYENdI

Been a while I didn’t watch one of his videos, but I remember some US military stuff on there and I thought it was an interesting view from someone I think is smart but clearly doesn’t share my political leanings.

Trying to not be in an echo chamber and all.

Important to note that I don’t live in the US.

Huh, nothing changed…

Weird, I guess.

If this is a real thing and not photoshopped, the fact that they feel the need to hide their faces is depressing.

From my understanding, that is a thing that actually happens from time to time in real life.

Which is horrifying.

Character is Daniel Jackson from Stargate SG-1

Heh, now the parralel in my mind is developpers that put in microtransactions or force a subsribtion model with no option to buy.

By that logic, do you think anybody that works at walmart/amazon/any-company-that-has-shady-suppliers can’t be good?

I do not.

But a quick search online says that Stephen Hawking had an IQ of 160.

This feels a lot like pretty people saying that looks don’t matter all of a sudden.

I wonder if there’s a relation with people saying that what they have is not valuable.

I agree with the sentiment of your post, but I think the examples are a bit too far fetched:

I’d wager most people use a computer/phone on a daily basis, which is why having a basic understanding of it seems like knowledge we should all have.

Inversely, most people don’t need even have a turbo in their car and many don’t even have a car, so any knowledge relating to that is probably useless for them.

That being said, even if someone is less knowledgeable in a field, respect should always be the baseline, as you illustrate, they’re probably skilled in something else!

I’m saying that as an IT person that’s aware that I’m making money mostly because people don’t bother to learn all this, so in the end I don’t mind that much.

Lab grown meat is more efficient, but some place are already outlawing it before it’seven available commercially… So I’m not too sure about the direction we’re going.

Could you share the method you used to divide a single monitor from the OS perspective?

If you got the script or wiki page somewhere…

I’m curious
