Horsepower is a very rough “average” of work output over a given period of time. It doesn’t really account for spikes in load. For that we’ll have have to consider the torque. So the real question is, how many foot/pounds or newton/meters does OP need to handle 10 gigs of throughput?
I once worked for a big corporation that makes hydraulic rescue tools, where management somehow failed to grasp that the chief selling point of these tools is that they do the job reliably every time. No firefighter wants to be trying to get someone out of a car like, “Damnit! The cutter is acting up again. We should probably look into that.”
But the executives kept demanding that we add “features” to the tools that effectively compromised the reliability and then got all surprised Pikachu face when it was explained to them that the customers thought the tools were overpriced half-assed garbage.
I guess my point is I’ve seen plenty of incredibly stupid examples of management ignoring the engineers and yet somehow Musk demanding that radar be scrapped in favor of cameras is right at the top of the list. Especially if you want your customers to live long enough to buy your products more than once.
Reddit was never “mainstream social media”. Annecdotally, I have heard more people referring to Reddit in casual conversation so maybe it is becoming more widely accepted.
If that’s true, then I still have no regrets about leaving. If I wanted to look at a news feed full of hot garbage I would have stayed on Facebook.
I hear a lot of devs that don’t seem to get this.

No, Why would I spend a week coding something that I can create a pivot table and some charts for in an hour? Especially when if I code it myself, that means I now own and have to support my lovely new utility. Time is money and I’ve got way more important things to do than build custom reporting suites that no one except me is ever going to use.
Lol Google sheets has nowhere near the capabilities of Excel. They’re not even in the same class.
And still the spreadsheet gold standard. Microsoft gets plenty of shit wrong but Excel is one thing they got right.
Walmart is in the process of acquiring Vizio for the express purpose of using TV’s to serve advertisements.
I honestly have had a better experience overall with T-Mobile than with Verizon or AT&T.
That said, having three huge telecoms dominating the wireless communications industry is not a good thing.
Hell, two of those dinosaurs are direct descendents of the same company that monopolized the US telecom industry for decades.
I think administrative overhead is the hidden cost that a lot of technology vendors fail to consider. Microsoft is especially guilty of this. Is a “good” product that requires an obscene amount of esoteric knowledge and experience to maintain really that good?
Microsoft is sunsetting Hyper-V Server (Not Hyper-V itself) so now you have to run Hyper-V on a bloated Windows Server install. Too bad because Hyper-V is actually a decent hypervisor and Microsoft is shutting out a lot of their smaller customers who don’t have the money for tons of exhorbitant licensing.
I even use Hyper-V for my self hosted setup but I’ll be forced to switch in a few years whenever my host server is ready for retirement.
The benefit of splitting services between VM’s is the same as it always has been: I can break one service without breaking ALL of them. Containers are an improvement over native installs but they do not solve this problem completely.
Tom Cotton is an embarrassment to the State of Arkansas and we did not need anymore help in that arena.
Not nearly good enough to make me give up Quicken but it is nice to see some more self hosted options popping up.
Probably because old habits die hard. Kaspersky used to have a pretty good reputation as far as AV software. In the past, I used TDSSKiller to resurrect many PC’s where other antivirus software failed.
Unfortunately, the whole Russia being a malicious actor negates any reasons to continue using Kaspersky.
If you knew how much of the critical infrastructure in the US is held together by Windows Server and duct tape, you would be very concerned.
Neither AI nor OpenAI’s management are capable of understanding irony.
Knew one family that had a big rear projection in their “media room”. Going to watch movies at their house was a legit event.
Hi dad!
The Mayor should just go ahead and resign. Take the city attorney with him while he’s at it.
What a bunch of asshats.
I had to sign up for a business account because of Cox’s data cap. Sadly they’re my only option and they suck ass.
