And what does the language matter anyway when you can now type in pseudocode into Copilot and ask it to form perfect equivalent code in any language?

Comment all JENSENS fault, I bet he gets ram cheap (Score 1) 245
Seriously, all Jensans fault.
HE knew he had a big demand, that would cause him to use most of the supply thus stuffing up the whole world.
He should have either pre-pared SKhynix and said, tripple your ram output or, not bought all the ram off the supply.
So they could either increase DDR4 supply, or make lower specced more supply of DDR5.
Seriously how much ram do they need? A trillion peta bytes of ram? Improve your damn code first, instead of committing 50 billion in purchases,
a smart person would buy less more often, and improve code, rather than lazily buy 90% of the world supply just to be king.
I wonder when people will start ram raiding data centers for 3 million in GPUs and RAM in the pickup.

I've seen what happens when atheists take power in a country. Anyone care to relate what the usual outcome is?
Yes, they become an economic superpower and they slowly take the place of the USA on the world stage.
A very nice country, with very nice, hard-working but still fun-loving (take that, calvinists!) people, thank to them not having religious hangups and neuroses.

More than 35 years ago, well before the Internet, BBSes ruled.
One I was a pillar of was nothing but a wall where you would post anonymously (or not).
The software was written to verify the typing rate to make sure that no text was uploaded
CHALLENGE ACCEPTED!
I wrote a special terminal program that would randomize the time between characters to foil that BBS's rejection of uploads...
(Oh, it worked, and the dude running the show never found out).

instead of explaining to my boss why he caught me spinning on my chair and stacking office supplies into Jenga towers as "I'm waiting for the compiler to finish" I can now tell him I'm waiting for claude to get back to me.
Comment Tokenising the swiss (Score 2) 83
I was looking forward to tokenising the Swiss citizen. There would be fewer of them than bitcoins and not growing in populations, so by the same logic bitcoinETF use they would appreciate. And they are even backed by gold. Dang.. I'd have made a fortune.
