Also, old people run everything these days

As someone who’s been waiting for the housing bubble to pop for a while:

• I’m not sure this will help me, because big corporate landlords are probably gonna snap a lot of the stock up and perma-rent them
• I’m also pretty seriously looking into fucking off from this country permanently, and dollar crashing is going to have a problematic effect on me trying to buy something in the EU - assuming I can even get permanent residence established somewhere

Yeah… more like a decade at least, if we’re being honest. Even if we do a U-turn in 4 years (which, frankly, I doubt, because I’m not convinced we’ll even have elections, much less meaningful ones, very much less free and fair ones).

Also, I see you, fellow Bostonian 😉

Perhaps you can steel it?

As a software engineer who was introduced to the field in high school, over two decades ago: it’s real. People are doing it. I’ve met people doing this at my job, and directed focused scorn at them. You know the idiom of “knowing just enough to be dangerous”? Like, you’re learning C and you’re just playing around and you discover pointers, and you’re like “oh this is interesting”, but you haven’t learned or internalized that it is real easy to Fuck Things Up if you don’t use them very carefully (there’s a ton of stuff like this)? LLM codegen being used by novices is an absolute shitshow because the codegen will often create nonsense, broken, logically flawed, or deprecated code, and the novice user is just going to accept it at face value instead of understanding that it’s subtly wrong.

I’ll be blunt: I have absolutely zero faith that Schumer will do anything. He is unfit to serve or lead in any capacity. Fascist enablers are fascists.

You’re willing to pay $none to have hardware ML support for local training and inference?

Well, I’ll just say that you’re gonna get what you pay for.

Holy shit guys, seriously, watch till the end, it’s great

lol yeah, the lemmy userbase is NOT an accurate sample of the technical aptitude of the general population 😂

You can get a Coral TPU for 40 bucks or so.

You can get an AMD APU with a NN-inference-optimized tile for under 200.

Training can be done with any relatively modern GPU, with varying efficiency and capacity depending on how much you want to spend.

What price point are you trying to hit?

If my grandfather were still alive and tried to tell me literally anything about network maintenance, I’d say “ok sure grandpa, don’t worry about it”, and then do it anyways after he goes to bed, because I know how networking works as a component of having over a decade of devops and homelab experience, and he would never notice.

Then tell him to do it himself, because he clearly doesn’t understand how basic networking works, and he’s not willing to adopt the easiest and most obvious solution.

Currently, we’re trying to catch our breaths while stabbing ourselves in the lungs

Republicans? Ashamed?

I see you haven’t met many Republicans.

Yep.

Also, I want to point out that it was actually worse and weirded than I had remembered: i don’t think they’re married, but they’ve had two kids together, and one of them was intentional.

Yep.

Wow.

Edit: hahahahahaha fucking hell they got married in the 90s too

Yep.

And that was my reaction when I discovered that too 🫩
