Yep. It's incredibly annoying.

"One $250 million dollar hookerbot, or 250 million one-dollar hookerbots?"

Huang's not an idiot, his security team would be handing out his money, because nVidia's money would be documented. Lord knows Huang can afford it.

The overwhelming majority of his nVidia shares are vested so it doesn't matter. This guy could acquire a $10,000-dollar-a-day cocaine and escort habit and he would still probably end his life richer than he is now.

From a cost benefit analysis he has spent a tremendous amount of money to pick up a modest amount of plastic. And he hit every problem that actual experts predicted would happen.

"plastic going into the ocean (via interceptors)"

The funny thing is people told him that would be more effective because people had already deployed river interceptors and they were effective, and it took years before his techbro ego let him finally do it. At which point he claimed to have invented the technology which was a lie.

"Two states were promised a new government holiday to celebrate Charlie Kirks assassination."

You do realize when you echo crazy conspiracy theory lies it just destroys your credibility with everything else you say?

Even closed loop data centers use a lot of water in their power generation, typically way more than cooling chips uses.

It's about twice the size of Texas. Also The Ocean Cleanup is a terrible organization run by a techbro narcissist and should not be trusted.

Then you should have no problem identifying infringing code?

Moderators are a special kind of special.

I got banned from the entire site for "circumventing" subreddit bans, which was because some of my alts were fed subreddits by the algorithm that I was not supposed to be on.

"Point us to an post about a guy given a job he is clearly unqualified"

That's literally my point -- the post isn't about the person in charge of the ministry! It's about them testing Collabora and the users just having too many issues with it. I guarantee if it was the same exact story and the minister had a male name none of you would have done this deep dive and criticism.

And why do you think she is unqualified? The Minister of Digitization doesn't need to be an expert on digitization, they need to be competent at high-level management and understanding how laws and policies work. Did she do something wrong? Would someone else have somehow convinced the 37 or however many employees who tested it not to hate it?

Yeah but for some reason Slashdot commenters jump to targeting people mentioned in the stories when they have a female first name.

Audiophilles will be convinced they can hear a difference. They can't, but they will be convinced of it.

"And the UK handed you the brand new computer industry on a plate by destroying all the computers it had built during the war while not requiring that you do the same with the licensed copies you had built."

The UK decided to destroy its computers on its own, don't blame us for your idiocy. "Require"? What were you going to "require" we do? And how were you going to enforce this "requirement"?

And what licensed copies are you talking about? Britain shared the Bombe (which was basically an upgraded version of the one the Polish built, but of course Brits insist they're the geniuses who broke Enigma), but ENIAC was a US production.

Business school is a 2-year cocktail party.
