Where did he get them???

It is frustrating when they raise property tax every year, claim it’s for schools, and then announce that music and art need to be cut for budget reasons. Meanwhile they also announce tens of of millions for renovating the business district and tens of millions for the restaurant district.

If the US economy fails, so does the index fund.

The market is typically the inverse of the Dollar. So as Trump destroys America and the Dollar goes down, the market will go up.

It was only car enthusiasts, and more specifically motorheads, that has those skills. Did more older folks know how to work on their cars then today’s youths? Likely

Yes and you are a techie surrounded by techies. You didn’t see the millions your own age who used computers in the 80’s and 90’s without ever understanding them. I ran a mid sized ISP in the mid and late 90’s which meant training and supporting the help desk staff to handle the phone calls. I’m very aware of how stupid the average Millenial was about technology. I hired many smart kids. But they were rare. My company had a relationship with a private school where we’d get some high school students to work at my ISP and it counted as their “computer class”. There were maybe two kids per class of 100 students each year that knew how a computer worked rather than just how to click the buttons on their Mac or Windows.

There were more computer techies in the 90’s. There were more motorheads in the 50’s. Computers are more complicated now such that even an average techy can’t modify an iPad just like an average person can’t fix a car today because of its encapsulation of complications.

Your much older brother is an anomaly. There are exactly 0 people that I know that are 50+ years old that would know anything about fixing a TV.

Wrong generation. I’m 50+ (Gen X) and have no idea about how to fix a TV at the component level. Because I grew up with TV’s everywhere like kids today grow up with iphones everywhere.

TV repair was a thing. Radio shack and even Woolworths (Walmart of the 1950’s) had a tube tester so that people could walk in with the tube from their TV and test it without paying for professional repair.

Average people knew more about repairing TV’s than today!

Again, it’s not “everyone”. It’s the techies of each generation. It’s the same subset of the population that has the interest and skills to understand things. The only thing that changes is the popular technology that the techies focus on.

The studies are on all forms of Computer Technology, not car transmission or TV repair.

The people that built the home computer and the Internet were all Boomers! Woz is a boomer. Vint Cerf is a boomer.

My brain had to bridge the gap between two different worlds.

As did past generations with new technologies. No car- cars everywhere. That generation could rebuild a transmission whereas it’s a mystery box you have a specialist fix for you.

No TV, TV everywhere, tubes in tvs, then transistors. My much older brother in law can identify and fix any TV at the component level. Like identifying a bad capacitor and not only replacing it but understanding the circuit to know that a larger ufarad capacitor will not only work in that part of the circuit, but prevent a future problem.

I suspect that like me, your TV repair knowledge ends at matching cables on the back to ports and replacing batteries.

It’s weird how there is such a knee jerk hate for a turbo charged word predictor. You’d think there would have been similar mouth frothing at on screen keyboards predicting words.

I see it as a tool that helps sometimes. It’s like an electric drill and craftsmen are screaming, “BUT YOU COULD DRILL OFF CENTER!!!”

The premise of the op is that classic programming makes AI unnecessary. Having a bad source from classic Google search index isn’t a problem with AI.

Maybe the detail you were searching for could not be found, because it did not actually exist.

He said he clicked the source it quoted.

Maybe if Google hasn’t been enshittifying search for 10 years, AI search wouldn’t be useful. But I’ve seen the same thing. The forced Gemini summary at the top of Google often has source links that aren’t anywhere on the first page of Google itself.

Amd definitely contributed to killing Clear Linux. Intel was contributing performance improvements to the kernal that also improved AMD. AMD spent no money on Linux kernal development and got Intel’s performance boost for free.

Lora is typically 50k max (theoretical 256k). So less than dial up speed.

It is in no way a replacement technology for wifi.

What other hardware supports open source like Graphene?

The optimizations also helped AMD.

We don’t know how big AMD is in Israel because they keep it secret.

Edit: Hey Downvoter, could you link the number of AMD employees in Israel? Because I searched and only found that “AMD doesn’t list employees by region in their public disclosures.”

Eisenhower had probably the worst foreign policy record because of the Dulles bros. Almost all the CIA government coups that happened occurred during Eisenhower and ended up in disasters decades later.

Eisenhower gets credit for building the Interstate Highway system despite not pouring any concrete.

Ok, rant time!!!

I worked for Vint Cerf back in the early 90’s. I became aware of the politics around it when Al Gore pushed for funding so the Internet could grow into something bigger than a University/Military communication system. Rush Limbaugh was on the radio daily railing against Al Gore’s Boondoggle. Clinton/Gore secured funding and the Internet exploded in use.

During the 1999 Presidential election, Republicans took Al Gore’s greatest political accomplishment, getting Congress to fund the creation of the Internet, and made it a joke.

Vint Cerf wrote this letter as a result:

You can’t expect me not to reinvent the wheel.

As we post on Lemmy, which is a reinvention of a reinvention of a reinvention of Usenet from 1979.

Some of Amd GPU work is in Israel.

Amd is already in Israel.
