I have endured a Phoenix, Arizona heat at just under 120° F and opening my motel door was like opening an oven to check on something you're baking. Our rental car had to have the AC on for about 3 minutes before sitting in the seats wasn't searingly painful. It took about 5 minute for the steering wheel to be comfortable enough to grip for more than a few seconds.

This platform became "mature" with less downtime around the Reddit API disaster, and I wanted to support it. I still use Reddit, but I go here first.

I would imagine that they see your country as small, unable to fight back, and "full of savages." I am SO embarrassed at this administration, they live in some weird childish fantasy land like 1950s cartoons. These are people with huge paintings of cowboys in their offices, like "Custer's Last Fight" by Cassilly Adams, showing Custer somehow fighting off Indians dressed as Zulus (a lot of 19th-century artists sometimes portrayed Plains Indians in "Custer's Last Stand"-style paintings with elements borrowed from Zulu warriors due to ignorance, theatrical flair, or lack of good references). Deporting these people to your country, which is probably seen as "generically Africa" in some undefined manner, "put the savages back with their kind."

These politicians are a stain on anything good and decent about Americans. Again, on behalf of America, I am deeply sorry this administration is so immature and reckless. Reminds me of this joke from Johnny Dangerously

Specialization can breed a narrow limit of scope when it come to general knowledge. Sometimes the best lawyers and surgeons are complete idiots when it comes to falling for things like, say, internet scams. I am not sure if that's what's happening here, but I have known enough assistants of big skilled people that they always say "This guy is a brilliant surgeon, but doesn't know how to cook or even how to shop for his own groceries."

All over the map: Barracuda, SkyHawk, Ironwolf, Constellation, Cheetah, etc...

Three companies, kept track, but not after I left. It was always funny to me that they bought out Atlas and Maxtor. "Of course they did. Why not dominate the market on shitty drives? lol" I am surprised they hadn't bought Deskstar.

"Don't you think he looks tired?"

Yeah, but it's Seagate. I have worked in data centers, and Seagate drives had the most failures of all my drives and somehow is still in business. I'd say I was doing an RMA of 5-6 drives a month that were Seagate, and only 4-5 a year Western Digital.

I have nothing to add but "thank you." You really do make a difference. <3

I'd compare LLMs to a junior executive. Probably gets the basic stuff right, but check and verify for anything important or complicated. Break tasks down into easier steps.

Uber has been stuck at the same light for like, 20 minutes now. What is he DOING?
