Going to have to agree to disagree. I still have a MacPro5,1 from 2012 that I regularly use. All four drive trays are in use, both optical drive bays, and I have two PCI addon cards for added functionality. The expansion capabilities of the MacPro5,1 were absolutely useful and justified.
Apple's Mac Pro, and before that the Power Mac, used to be a reasonably affordable machine for the capabilities it offered. The trash can was silly, but still affordable.
The 2019 return to tower form also came with an insane price increase. The base price was double that of previous generations. That killed the Mac Pro.
It's about time they finally had the funeral.
This isn't compensation, if it is something necessary to do the job at the levels they require, any more than asking if the building has HVAC in the summer is negotiating benefits.
They sell the idea that using AI is necessary for the position, and then try to sell access to that AI as a perk? That's rich up there with working in a coal mine and being told you can only use company tools, and that for some positions they supply the tools and some they don't.
Has the Netscape trademark been declared abandoned yet?
Across three days, posing the same question about paginating the results of a powershell tool that interacted with AD, Gemini hallucinated four different command line arguments that didn't exist.
This is exactly how you expect a statistical prediction model to work.
This is exactly what you don't want in a coding assistant.
Multi-cloud increases your points of failure. Even multi-region within AWS adds complexity for data synchronization, and complicates the restoration of service after a single-region failure.
It is a conspiracy!
I still have a few of the pint glasses I laser etched with the DIGG logo, that I made to give away when I was burning the logo into laptops in the back room of the DIGG party in San Francisco in 2007.
I tried to tip an Uber driver with cash, and was told they were not allowed to accept cash.
What's the price difference between getting a shill article posted on the front page vs running banner ads?
I fully trust them to take as much care with this endeavor as they have with their oil business. What could go wrong?
I predicted MacOS would go app-Store only years ago. It's taken longer than I expected, but it sure does seem to be getting closer and closer to that.
The difference is that for years Netflix encouraged password sharing.
Why is anyone surprised by this? Law enforcement in the US has long held the belief that they don't need a warrant if the information about you is held by a third party. It's not surprising at all that the free market found a way to earn a few bucks to speed up a process that was going to happen anyways.
