my ongoing experience with this machine is that it remains pretty good, the price is a shame. might actually see how functional the desktop experience is and actually use it for my new workstation...
ok so, the CPU on the GB10 is really, really nice. ten Cortex-X725 (512KiB L2, 2.8GHz max clock), and ten Cortex-X925 (2MB L2, 4.0GHz clock). 2x core complexes, 5/5 cores each. the X925 is basically Zen5 levels of single-thread performance. i'm rather impressed with it

Nice reply "owning" me, unfortunately you parsed 2 levels of irony but missed completely the third, wherein it's clear I'm making fun of the persona your reply intended to critique. That being said I'm still hurt to an almost unimaginable degree

if you want to be good at computer programming the first thing you should do is NOT write any computer programs. you should post 50 times a day. only then is there any chance that people will call you a Good Boy and put Treats in your mouth; and this is the most noble of pursuit of knowledge

moons ago i remember finding a cockroachdb issue about "can you do auto-TLS bootstrapping with EKE+password" and got a response like "yeah we hear this all the time from customers! and would accept a patch for it!" and the guy was like "you're outta your fucking mind, get a new PM." valuable lesson

i read the thing about Gooning from Harpers last night, and my opinion is that it was pretty funny; it was supposed to be a funny article. not thinking about it too much more than that, it's not especially deep
