@migueldeicaza they are comparable on IPC, particularly the new 2nd gen AMD chips. But lots of cores for cheap is very much new and uncharted waters!

@migueldeicaza Xeons are thinly rebranded regular intel chips at *tremendous* markup for the server space. Hitting Intel here means they lose a lot of margin fat -- and lots of cores has huge benefit in the server space. AMD is hitting Intel where it hurts. (also ECC for all!)

@migueldeicaza Basically intel has to protect Xeons and “lots of cores” so attacking them there is like using kryptonite on Superman

@inter4ever_7 @rmondello @othermaciej I'm not a news outlet. The article was corrected, which is the most desirable outcome. If you have a problem with that, block my account.

@rmondello @othermaciej I'm not a news outlet. The original article was corrected. That's all that is necessary. And I'm sure Microsoft felt the same way about Edge.. until they suddenly didn't 🤷‍♂️

@Beschizza This is truly fucked up

And its many many siblings https://t.co/EPjPKsJxOP

@iMate0 @VitoGesualdi Rofl 🤣

@bemmu they probably also raised babies without modern diapers, which sounds hellish

@Stujiro aquaphor is just upscale vaseline though isn't it?

@Carnage4Life yeah why don't they ask about those wall street firms paying traders obscene amounts of money? Why don't *those* companies leave NY?

@susanthesquark also v. good in Little Women!

this keeps my lips super smooth when I am slamming LIQUID DEATH and listening to thrash metal while weightlifting and getting super ripped bro https://t.co/YGRrK4paar

@hazem_awad @kevin2kelly @fredwilson yeah many of these are downright pessimistic, particularly the retreat to cryptocurrencies

@splattne eeeeeeeeeeeeeeeek

@textfiles I will personally pay you $100,000 (which can go to the Archive of course) if twitter kicks Trump off twitter. Never everrr everrrrrr gonna happen. So let's focus on winning the election maybe? 🌈

@textfiles I do support the disclaimers-with-some-tweets path for the record. I think that's about all you *can* do.

@textfiles this is a battle you can't win (not with me, I mean) -- it is the "gosh we really should try harder to bring peace to the middle east y'all" air-quotes 'solution'.

@textfiles One compromise position I do actually support is disclaimers posted directly near controversial tweets, like the fact checking Snopes links that Facebook automatically puts on "news" stuff, etc

@textfiles And the idea that Trump, if kicked off twitter, wouldn't a) find another platform within an hour anyways and b) rain hell down on twitter and all other tech is just a child's fantasy

@textfiles This particular battle makes ZEERRROOO sense. Twitter is damned if they do (you can't kick an elected official off twitter) and damned if they don't. Focus on the fucking election! Win THAT.

@textfiles Also treat the disease not the symptom, for fuck's sake

@textfiles It's not Twitter's job to fix democracy in the USA. It just.. isn't. Sorry.

@textfiles Thus it has to be fixed at the USA platform level. Vote this asshat out with extreme prejudice.

@textfiles He's using the *USA* platform to do that. Twitter is just collateral damage.

@textfiles I hate to be the one to break this to you, but it is not really on Twitter to fix the fact that idiots voted an idiot into the presidency

@KristyT I am utterly appalled that this 💩 still happens in AD 2020

@Carnage4Life sort of. this guy is saying you can't edit photos or videos in the browser and furthermore those are mission critical workflows. None of that is true!

@Carnage4Life terrible article. Chromebooks are amazing, if you embrace the "everything runs in a web browser" worldview. If you want android apps to take over the world (like this author) then you're gonna hate them

"I had this idea but didn’t know if I could keep it going for 11 minutes..." https://t.co/4bO97xpFnK

@backtothefarm I'm proudly part of the problem, just like the rest of us :)

@alexdante @textfiles (Chef’s kiss gesture)

@andymci @KristyT Sure hope so! That’s the entire premise and basis of @discourse

@spies_please Omg I need this sweet cat so bad. I’m moving to Chicago

@johndbritton @JustworksHR @GustoHQ Gusto has worked very well for us at @discourse

@jeffsand Magical

@ID_AA_Carmack @ForgedVR “personally watch them suffer through all your bad decisions” 👌

@joshmillard Snarf > Yoda

@Carnage4Life this is not a compelling rant. It's more like "in my day, we walked 5 miles each way, in snow, and we liked it!"

@bsideup @JUGru what I should have said is "fuck russian *interference*" which I think we can all agree with ;)

@timbray Climate could be an issue. Scooters are 100% no-go in snow and rain and other inclement weather. It is really striking how much cheaper e-scooters are than e-bikes.. like 3-4x cheaper.

@timbray also a LOT cheaper!

@timbray I have; the scooter is easier to use, charge, and deal with ;)

@TitPetric I figure people should be able to mentor themselves, if they're any good ;)

@timbray I think scooters are more credible here https://t.co/Rn3Mdi4gGK

@TitPetric I don't mentor people as a rule

@lizardbill the new gilded age is here already

@KristyT oh damn that reminds me I need to watch this!

@migueldeicaza @__velu I like to treat people like adults who can think for themselves, whether they deserve it or not

@xzqx @ZachWeiner You made it funnier just now

@jeffsand Omg @betsyphd did this too! It’s so nice

@__velu @migueldeicaza The article itself was updated, so people can read the news for themselves

@SparkyRobot @maijasauna @Himmapaan https://t.co/fTdbVKAg74

@carbon43 @lizardbill “My” story? Might want to read the URL

@lizardbill https://t.co/YXb9PJrWce

@KristyT It’s also funny in a world of perfect insta photos how bad this photo is

@ID_R_McGregor not really; pick from https://t.co/yC9yAbQ32B

@phreakmonkey @honestduane @ZachWeiner Africa, and almost nowhere else. Unique demographics for the whole globe.

@thefalken @ID_AA_Carmack you will be waiting a lot longer than "a few months" for moore's law improvements today! Relevant in 2005 when that article was written, though

@ID_AA_Carmack compiled languages make a big difference. Quake 2 in .net was 70% of the performance of hand optimized assembly https://t.co/P49NQuWMn3 .. and that was in 2005

@ZachWeiner Per actual fucking science, peak discontent across cultures is age 47. Can attest to this truth https://t.co/J4KAa4dLVu

@rmondello I hope so!!

@costa11235 @ID_AA_Carmack can you name specifics and details

@shog9 :(

@ID_AA_Carmack I feel one underutilized principle is to make the game just hard enough that the player is dying occasionally, but not too often. Scale back difficulty silently if the player is dying repeatedly; scale it up silently if the player never dies.

@joffreyjaffeux Do iiiit

@jeffsand 10-4 good buddy!

@textfiles I drew the one in the leftmost column with the carrots, that was our group.

@Pinboard I feel like this got super dark unusually fast

@Pinboard Boobs 2 Algorithms 0

also in the interests of full disclosure I will also be wearing this https://t.co/BQUTxJY2JY

"The smarter criminals steal someone’s identity, file a fraudulent tax form using their identity, steal the refund, and then let that poor soul deal with the IRS when it comes after them to get their money back."

@jeffsand I can't help it if you have exceptionally good taste!

@jeffsand beautiful 🤩

@seesharp oh nice imma grief him with ASCII now.. done

@deanputney Wow lol

@wilshipley @waxpancake this is the worst Choose Your Own Adventure everrrrr

@Pinboard “small people with boring hobbies and no volume control” and this is different than adults... how again?

@Pinboard I don't particularly like adults either

@erraggy Yes this works with candles we use it that way frequently

@patio11 Unfortunately I follow you on twitter so there is no cap at 100 🤣

Update; bought game on Steam (for less than half the price), played via Hades Canyon nuc hooked up to TV and XBone controller.. much faster performance!

@marc_hershey we have 3 kids, everything is in a constant state of near-destruction

@Pinboard that's why the Delta Force training regimen is so legendary

@Carnage4Life Webvan etc was being in the wrong place at the wrong time with the correct idea.

oh my goddd YOU HAD *ONE* JOB XBOX .. ONE (and this is my second one, an S, because people told me the first one might be broken. Nope, it just sucks.)

@chrismaddern Yes it was updated

I swear my computer boots faster than this damn thing, too.

I kinda want to create a Facebook account and react to every single thing in my stream with the angry emote option adorable pics of new baby 😡 delicious dinner pics 😡 just got promoted 😡 fun night out with friends 😡 exciting family news 😡

@mattwridley @ID_AA_Carmack https://t.co/hcLsuOvLQB

link seems bedraggled, try this https://t.co/f5UAMcrFMC

@spies_please Instant Baby

@jonobacon worth it

@OmarShahine Except windows has no flag emoji. Which sucks. Try selecting the us flag..

@Pinboard yeah TL;DR we're super fucked

@deadprogrammer @Pinboard I dunno, people seem to like Obamacare. Are you hitting the "insurers have raised prices to accommodate sicker people" issue? https://t.co/3OjNN9HWjp

@deadprogrammer @Pinboard my preferred healthcare plan is if you get sick, you die
