Contractors tend to be a lot cheaper and easier to get in big cities. In small to medium cities there is a shortage. You wait for a month and even then they may not show up. They know they have you over a barrel so they overcharge.
Really? There is a shortage of electricians in small (50K - 100K residents) to medium (100K - 500K residents) cities? That sounds like a stat you pulled out of the air. I call BS.
I don't want to sound alarmist and I am obviously not an expert but... we know what happens when you remove a species from the food chain. 1. Their predators die off. 2. Other species rise to take their place. While obviously mosquitos are the most harmful-to-humans animals on the planet, have the scientists really figured out what the potential adverse long-term effects of permanent mosquito reduction will be, or are we rushing headlong into solving one problem just to create a worse one further down the line?
No we are not solving one problem just to create a worse one further down the line. What animal(s) exists in the same environment as the targeted mosquitos that potentially could be worse? Keep in mind that there are many mosquito species sharing the same habitat and this remedy only targets one species.
Nuclear weapons are a "genie out of the bottle" and they threat of nuclear war is ever-present, but we've not yet obliterated each other with nuclear weapons because we acknowledged that it's probably best that we restrict the the proliferation and possession of nuclear weapons.
There is an ongoing war that is crippling economies worldwide specifically to prevent one nation from getting one nuclear weapon. There is another war where the mere threat of using nuclear weapons has caused the entire Western World from properly protecting an ally against stealing land and heinous war crimes in the act of doing so.
That is not 'controlled', my friend. That is teetering on the edge of disaster.
You have a point.
Most likely, and this is a bit cynical, the people that own or control Cloudera are foreign born and are trying to help their own ethnic group at the exclusion of Americans.
In addition, many tech companies likes to hire H1B workers because they hire them as consultants which means no vacation time, sick time, health insurance, 401K, etc. Also, their visa status are tied to the employers so they are going nowhere—no job hopping every two years for higher pay. The H1B system is almost indentured servitude in many ways.
Do you not notice 10 PETABYTES of data transmitting out of your data center? This was either a slow transfer over a REALLY long time, or they pegged the network to download it all really quickly.
Even so, it will take a long time to download 10 PETABYTES of data. For example, if they downloaded the data at 1 Gbps (this is about standard for a business internet connection) or 125 MB/s, it will take over 2 years to download 10 petabytes—assuming there is no lag, latency or throttling. If they download it at 10Gbps it takes around 3 months. Downloading at 1 Gbps and higher will be noticed, so; I am skeptical that they were able to download 10 petabytes of data. But you never know.
Speaking of growth, did the human living in Reality actually work to avoid all the shit life choices that GAVE them cancer?
Shocking how we'll find those clones to be anomaly and disease-free, because common fucking sense. God forbid we ask humans to be accountable for their shitty life choices that literally create the harm they're paying to migitate.
What shit life choices leads to breast cancer, brain tumor, most cancers or illness? Think and reflect before you write that nonsense.
Firefox does built in local translations of pages. That's an "AI feature" and it's avoiding you having to use google translate or other systems that end up sending the data "to the cloud" (in other words, sending you private data to other people's servers where they can do whatever they want with it).
I don't see how local, relatively low energy, private, reasonably effective translation of a page is an "anti-feature".
But do you trust that Firefox is not sending the data to a third party to train the AI?
...how did Joe get past her outright calling him a racist on stage during the debates?
Did he forget?
I'm curious how the black community will embrace her, as that it has been brought out during the debates that she was pretty well know for her high incarceration numbers for non-whites, especially for drug offenses.
I'm a bit surprised at this choice...he had others that were much better.
California had very strident drug laws. As the DA she didn't have much latitude when it came to drug offensives.
I was thinking the exact same thing. So, and our companies do not work with our military?
The difference is they are OUR companies working with OUR military. China is OUR adversary in every space. What is there to understand?
Perhaps the irony of this debacle will be that more Chinese app developers will start successfully targeting English speaking users through Huawei, i.e. English versions of their apps & services, thereby reducing the market share that goes through Google? Maybe Android will fragment significantly enough so that Samsung see an advantage in developing their own fork? Then Google will be well & truly screwed.
How in the world is Huawei going to succeed in creating a viable mobile platform when Samsung, Microsoft, Amazon and others have failed? Heck, China could force every mobile device sold in China to include Huawei OS and it still wouldn't matter much to Android market share. Game over for Huawei plans on being the largest mobile device manufacturer.
Pause for storage relocation.
