>work for a small organization>all of our critical business data exists in one location>an obscure cloud database platform that isn't even designed to host the kind of data we're shoving into it>the service's API (unfinished) hasn't been updated since 2017 and we're pretty sure the 1 guy who was maintaining it doesn't even work there anymorei'm no sysadmin or anything but this is fucked up, right? i feel like we should at least have a local copy of all this data on-site.

Why is /g/ so anti-seeding? I get made fun of for seeding here. Don't you want information to be free?
>>106450911They pretend to be based online and they think seeding is not based because you're doing anything for the benefit of somebody else. They are aware this idea is wrong and they are in fact secretly seeding.
>>106450927>they are in fact secretly seeding.i don't think they are all doing that
>>106450911Most of /g/ are 3rd worlders (probably Indian) with shit-tier speeds and data caps still. Hell, most probably torrent from their phone because they're zoomers or underage.
>>106450911Ewww, the idea of having another man deploy his ‘seed’ onto my computer fills me with disgust and other emotions that I need to discuss with my pastor

Why are leftoids and zoomoids (but I repeat myself) so triggered by AI? They seem to hate any tech that's not for castrating minors.
>>106450844>No communist has ever contributed even slightly to fixing the billionaire problem in the US and if we ever fix that problem in this country, the communists will still be crying about made up identity politics or complaining that the border exists.The strongest borders to ever exist were in Communist countries. You need to stop conflating the pretend liberals who want to have pretend communism while still using all of Porky's tech empire with actual people who struggled to be free of them.The billionaire problem in the US isn't going to be voted on. At worst they will receive slight fines. They will never have any kind of legislation that ever gives real freedom back to the American people.
I don't hate AI on principle, I hate these companies that are pushing it so hard because you KNOW they are going to squeeze every bit of profit from it while destroying the job market without a change in the current economic system. I also hate as a semi-schizo tech person how much they are integrating AI into... well, everything and how much of a security hole that it is going to open if not trained properly nor overseen.
>>106450916I hate it for a different reason: AI is unprofitable, they have not found a real niche for it that is not making glorified chat bots or replacements for things that were already tertiary art forms like writing and design. Things that I don't want a computer doing over a person.In their quest to make lemonade out of lemons they're going to do some seriously fucked up shit with it and we're already seeing it with things like Flock: Worldwide gangstalking, recording everybody from cradle to grave and using predictive technology to better advertise to people while also hoarding more data on them than their doctor is legally allowed to have. And governments will bend to them, and allow poorly trained models loaded with security holes to have all of this data because it may make big line go up.This isn't even getting into how Google has had 4 data breaches so far this year and you can retrieve almost any face, art, or conversation trained with Gemini by just prompting it correctly. So much so that this became a scandal over it last month that people forgot about because big line must go up without question.

How many did you have to land your first job /g/?
>>106448939>Dev-ops0
>>106448939I'm a computer repair tech.I didn't need any certs. I mentioned that I had one that expired a while ago, but most of my co-workers don't have any.It's not that technical of a job, but I know it'll make good resume filler for when I branch out to something more high-tech.Also, they give a dollar raise each for A+, Security+, Server+, and Network+, and will reimburse you for the cost of the test voucher. No retakes or course material though, but that's still a damn good deal.
I've never worked a day in my lifewagies get the rope
i havent got any, i did IT at bongistan college then got a job in an ISP call center, worked up from that. I have a couple of Azure/MS ones now but only as a job requirement after i already started working here.

Should I start converting my movies and porn to AV1 to save space on my 1tb external or should I just buy a new external
>>106448899no. the power in requires to re encode cost more money than extra storage. unless you're distributing that video to millions, it's not worth it.
>>106450149Maybe it is worth it. There are trade-offs with everything...
>>106449836How can there be meaningful improvements for an AV2 already??
>>106450341AV1 was released stillborn
>>106449836this, av2 will likely fix all the issues with av1, but as others have said, hw support for encoding is limited. doing sw encode for av1 is extremely long, i got 0.2fps encoding on a 16-core@3.5GHz. If you have 1TB of ~5Mb/s h264 (or around 4000 hrs of videos) if would take 5 times as long to encode it all, which would probably require in the ~200kW/h range (given a 100W TDP), that said it's probably cheaper to buy a new hard drive/ssd than do sw encoding
this is vim. she a cuteshe has tabs, lsp's, can compile and debug from inside, and is fully customizable.say something nice about her.
>>106450247Most editors have Vim keybinds and you can run Neovim in server mode with a GUI frontend you know.Otherwise Zed might be what you want (I haven't used it).
>>106450290>Most editors have Vim keybindsYea I use them everywhere now. It's crazy how fast I got addicted to vim keybinds, I mainly needed an editor to edit files on a server over SSH and now I use it everywhere.>Neovim in server mode with a GUI frontendI have heard of GUI frontends, not about server mode. The only GUI I know is VimR for macOS and it doesn't work for me unfortunately.>ZedIt's one of the editors I tried before coming back to Neovim. It's decent and has the best Vim emulation out of every other editor. The AI integration is fun too if I'm bored and have some time to waste. But I can't find any way to replicate Telescope functionality from Neovim, which really is the killer feature why I can't use any other editor. I have the Telescope file find mapped to space in normal mode, so now I just have a muscle memory of hitting space, typing file name, hitting enter and expecting to be there. I was able to recreate it in Emacs, but it's always at the bottom of the screen and the UI is unintuitive. I think there's a way to change it but I haven't been able to find it yet.
Gomen, Ojou-chan, but for me it's Helix.

>>106450492fake and gay. If they wanted it to be mass manufactured they'd open source it.I think the only other open sourced zero point energy is the bendini wheel which supposedly works by capturing the radiant energy of an EMF fields collapse, dunno if it works because solar is cheap enough with one paycheck for $3000 you can build a 8KW system if you live in a sunny area with little clouds like utah or arizona.
It cant even harvest all source of energy in the physics table.
>>106450712let's just harvest quantum vibrations at this point

I've used it for work 8 hours daily since early 2024. After GPT-5, it's just unusable. I find myself pleading to it constantly and all it does it validate me. It never improves me.After pleading with GPT-4o, which has turned to shit because of cross-contamination with GPT-5 training, I fed the same prompt to DeepSeek and immediately got an improvement.Why am I paying $199 a month when I can pay nothing and get better results?What is the META right now guys?

>>106442492this, claude made a paper on 'reasoning' and it showed that even when the model made correct reasoning steps, it was unable to use those to derive a proper answer. this is shocking when you ask it to compute an integral for a function that can take 5-10 steps. each step can be correct but it's unable to use the intermediate results to provide a comprehensive answer. chatgpt has a special math agent that tries to detect whether your question needs to be fed to it, but it uses a fucking cas software to answer it, not actual llm reasoning.
>>106442191The problem seems to be you're using it as a search engine or encyclopedia. I would never use an LLM as a source of information, it's a writing tool.
