“Alphabet has been slashing headcount since early last year, when the company announced plans to eliminate about 12,000 jobs, or 6% of its workforce, following a downturn in the online ad market. Even with digital advertising rebounding recently, Alphabet has continued downsizing, with layoffs across multiple organizations this year.Chief Financial Officer Ruth Porat announced in mid-April that the company’s finance department would undergo restructuring, entailing layoffs and moving positions to Bangalore and Mexico City.[ … ]The latest cuts come as the company enjoys its fastest growth rate since early 2022, alongside improving profit margins. Alphabet reported a 15% jump in first-quarter revenue from a year earlier and announced its first-ever dividend and a $70 billion buyback.”It's over for America

>>100770499I've got a Flanders X311K at work and an LG EP950 at home. The X3110 has nothing to offer me and I honestly don't see it as much of an upgrade. It offers nothing new, Dolby Pulsar in 2014 had 4000 nits peak luminance and more saturated colors.
>>100770546And who exactly does the evaluation? A video game colorist? There is nobody in the gaming pipeline that could do the work. They have some technical artists but they probably work on a good quality monitor, like a few thousand dollars, but not a reference one.

You're just slinging 10 year old marketing everywhere as if it were still relevant today.It could literally do everything the X3110 can do 10 years ago.

>>100770588Apple has adopted JPEG XL, but has no role in promoting, funding, or governing it. It does, however, have a role in governing and funding the Alliance for Open Media. And by extension, AV1 and AVIF.Shilling an Apple-sponsored format is literally all that you ever do.
>>100770628>>100770633You know what I mean, smartass.https://caniuse.com/avifhttps://caniuse.com/jpegxlI find it rather suspicious that apple adopted it first. They're not famous for adopting good things early on (ie USB C).
>>100770890>You know what I meanThen fucking say it, instead of outright lying because you think it helps your point. You are a shill for a format sponsored by Apple, lying about another format to try to make it look bad.Anyway, Apple actually is notorious for adopting media formats early. They want their walled garden for hardware so that they can sell their own hardware at grossly inflated prices. But for software, they want to capture the "creative" market, so they quickly adopt formats that have the most merit for creative purposes. Adobe, another early adopter for JPEG XL, is the same.You can't say it's bad because of low adoption, then blindly shit-talk adopters with blatant lies. The hypocrisy shows that you really don't care about the logic of your arguments at all.
>>100770890>Apple adopted a format that Google deliberately suppressed>Let's ignore the adoption outside of the browser realm where they have little influenceNo, there is no saving your argument.

The more I learn about linux, the more I feel like a retard.Things that should work don't work. Intuition leads you to broken installs and false command prompts. Some issues are so specific that you can't find help in forums. You later find out that the exact same thing worked on your other PC, just not your previous one. Why? No one knows. Some packes are broken in one repository but are ok in others.It's a jungle. Even when I accomplish something, I don't feel smarter. It feels like luck or being a retard that copy pasted a solution from an old forum post. Nothing ever just works.At least as a desktop operating system, that is. I have no issue with simple Samba or SSH stuff.Is there some good guide on daily driving Linux? Like, actually learning how to understand the inner workings? To get gud? Not just copy paste solutions? I really want to like Linux.>inb4 I tried Debian and Fedora
>>100769057>the more I feel like a retardAnon, you are a retard.>Intuition leads you to broken installsThe intuition of a retard, yes. This would happen with any software that a retard was "intuitively" attempting to use.>Why?Because you are a retard.>Nothing ever just worksOnly for retarded people.>Is there some good guide on daily driving Linux?

Guys, I'm a big fan of node but this is really pissing me off.Why does npm update <package name> not update the fucking package? I want the next major version, but it doesn't increment the major or minor versions. The command does nothing.
>>100770618>I want the next major versionLearn a bit of semver.If your package.json has your dependency set to "^1.0.0", it's only going to update on v1.x.x, likewise "~1.1.1" will only update the "v1.1.x" range. Semver ensures that you don't bring breaking changes to your code (as long as the package maintainers actually abide by it).
>>100770687Ok, but how do I upgrade something if I want to?One of my packages even warns it has memory leaks and not to use it. It's a dependency of another package that has since gone up a major version. I also might want the features of the next major version.
>>100770783I decided to take the opportunity to install yarn and use that instead, not that it resolves my problem. Upgrading one package's major version doesn't upgrade its peer deps to the versions it requires. So I still have to go through them all manually... which doesn't seem right.
>>100770832Ok I added resolutions field to package.json so I could specify the version of the dependency to use manually. blog post over

>>100770396>i have heard they start to degrade much earlier than that so i keep mine running at 60-65 degrees max.I have my doubts that it really matters. Usually when you hear people blaming temps for instability it's always the same overclocking retards who have likely damaged their systems by being ham fisted idiots, configuring settings they don't understand and manhandling the parts until a once working system becomes marginal.Hell, apple for the 10 years before the M-series was putting intel chips through the torture racks on a global scale. Inadequate heatsinks shared with the GPU, fans set to idle until the CPU hits 90°C, constant throttling due to 99°C maximum temperatures for the whole time the CPU usage is >80%... And yet, you never heard of CPU degredation. The drives would fail, the LCDs would have issues, keyboards definitely failed a lot, but the CPUs just didn't seem to care.

What are the target schools for places like Jane Street? What does it take? Should I do the Putnam competition? Do you know anyone who got in here?
>>100770880no I'm saying they only have like 2,000 employees who are actually writing trading rules and they aren't hiring that much. I think they get like 200 interns a year and maybe half of that go on to work for them full time. so maybe they hire a few hundred people a year at best. it's extremely competitive because if you're cracked you only have to work there for a few years and you can retire when you're 30.>>100770905never been to Boston but I don't think it's the same. there are finance people everywhere in New York.

>>100770967crazy, I've been thinking about making some open-source quant analysis software but unfortunately that's already been made (QuantConnect), maybe I'm not thinking hard enough but I wonder if there are any more real ways for me to demonstrate interest. This is just a pipe dream, i'm at community college so unless I somehow transfer to an ivy league this is a 0.01% chance (I'm sure a quant here can do the math and give me the real numbers).The combination of finance and CS makes it so fascinating to me, the cracking of market data and throwing away all traditional financial analysis for just a complete math & stat look at it is so appealing to me. I wish I could work in this space, maybe I could have a shot at a some super low tier quant fund or something if that even exists. I guess there is a lot of money in this field but im honestly not chasing that, it's again a combination of two major interests of mine. Sucks that I wasn't career minded in highschool.
