I have the same feeling, but after reading this report I believe big hyperscalers will survive the bubble when it pops. Now I've got the feeling they don't have huge amounts of GPU…

Several european countries will be governed by fascist parties, fueled by social media. There will be no EUexit because they will discover how to use the EU to approve legislation …

Be careful about the culture. Higher management had a massive panic because "AI stopped working" in a product we make. They started an all-hands meeting. Everything worked except t…

Before reading the article I was surprised to find them similar to old german Sout backpacks. They are really sturdy and durable: your kid needs just one of them for all primary sc…

Right now it is impossible to order cost-optimized servers in Falkstein, Nuremberg, or Helsinki. No matter if it is x86 or ARM. Looks like they had to buy _a lot_ of new servers an…

It was a great opportunity to name a unix tool "mcfly" or just "Marty" for time manipulation. Better luck next time, I guess.

Reminder: always travel with a spare phone with a broken screen just in case.

Keeping your sanity in tech is underrated.

This reminds me of Nortel Command Console back in 2000-2005! I worked for a telco company that had a lot of Nortel Passport devices (does anyone know what Frame Relay is?). We star…

I wonder what's the output of running 'hinv' on Irix. I need to recover my old Irix CDs and find out.

Probably the police wants to gather some evidence. The easiest way to block a wifi tap is to change the wifi password... or wifi name. Both things will be noticed by the eavesdropp…

I would pay if I can use Clip Studio Paint without lag. In fact, I will try another time this easter. If works, I will need to donate.

One of the reasons behind the dollar strength is that the US has a huge population. Even if the central bank might does a bad job and make a mess of the economy, the activity of 35…

Not just Amazon - I guess the Oil and gas industry is now run on the cloud. They used to have big SGI machines 30 years ago... but I bet everything is on the cloud now using GPUs.

If you have to walk the dog and know in advance it will stop or start raining in 20 minutes....

For me the only reason to keep windows 11 is Clip Studio Paint doesn't work yet in Linux... I use it mostly on my Android tablet BUT I want to have an alternative in case something…

But in the other hand you don't have to worry about mass shootings. You can freely walk (mostly) wherever you want without risking your life (that is not normal in most of the worl…

Politicians use it a lot. Because media and journalist started using it.

Until now nobody thought it was a problem. At least not a big one. The EU made some moves to define a "cloud computing" platform for Europe, and very little people paid attention b…

In Spain you need to be ENS-certified (esquema nacional de seguridad) in order to provide services to the goverment. Nowadays it is similar / aligned to NIS2 certification. But you…

We started with PGVector just because we already knew Postgres and it was easy to hand over to the operations people. After some time we noticed a semi-structured field in the prom…
