I think people are overreacting. A lot of larger tech companies started hiring like mad during the past two years because the economy was over juiced. I work at an enterprise and w…

Have you tried KoboldAI? It can run, among other more mundane things, some pretty large ERP models. Its been making me lose sleep this week. :D

Agreed. It's hard not to get overly excited after playing around with some of these models and seeing what they can do, though.

This is something I'm interested in as well. It feels like last year, I saw every tech company fighting tooth and nail to scrape up every last engineer. We even had trouble making …

Surprisingly, the margin isn't as insane as you would think. Linus Tech Tips actually did a video comparing a homebrew Mac Pro killer vs the Mac Pro and they came out surprisingly …

I work in the workstation division of one of the companies listed in the article and the market for workstations is not going anywhere for a long time. It's not that workstations d…

Didn't the FBI and the Mueller report pretty thoroughly lay out the massive scope of Russian social media influence on the 2016 election and beyond? I thought this was a decided is…

This seems like a good time to plug running a storage server on your local network. You can pick up old workstations off eBay for 100$. Stick a couple of drives in it, load it up w…

It's weird to see someone calling roads free when I give the government 25% of my paycheck every month to pay for things like roads. We can't even pass a tax in my town to give nec…

The idea is pretty simple: concise languages ( like python, smalltalk etc.) work well when you can get away with being concise. Verbose languages ( like the C family ) work well wh…

This article is pretty interesting. However, if you read closely you'll see that they fail to justify their implication that digital media access is causing young people to feel mo…

I've been considering setting up pihole on my home server for a while but I've always been worried that it would break a website for a non-technical family member while I wasn't th…

Agreed. I bet there's quite a bit of money out there waiting for whomever starts making paid, tracking-free alternatives to popular free apps.

It's always fun to read stuff from the backblaze guys. The stuff they do is just neat.

Looks like SERN is moving ahead of schedule. Be safe. El Psy Congroo

I'm going to blow the lid off this one and share a very "out there" opinion. Read both. Soft skills books won't help you navigate the insane economy of web technologies and current…

"Don't worry, we can't force you add a backdoor into your software. We'd rather talk to your CEO instead."

The best way to choose a language is always to look at what problem you're trying to solve and what kinds of problems the languages you're looking at aimed toward. If you're not fa…

Could someone with more electronics experience than me explain the difference between the what the author made and a an off the shelf amp?

These kinds of blog posts are always awful. "These cash-grab books about teaching kids to program are bad so teaching your kids to program is bad." Throw in some anecdotal evidence…
