Will I understand kernels and hardware like Linus does after reading picrel or should I read something else?
>>108735533Probably better. Tanenbaum thought linux sucked because monolithic kernels were obsolete in 1992.
It's a pretty good book, comprehensive and well structured.Tanenbaum's Computer Networks book is also pretty good.
>>108735533not really.

PCIE5 drives are shooting up in price It is too late to buy a reasonably priced SSD
>>108729911bullshit
>>108729892>manufacture capacity increases in a couple years>ai bubble(actually) popsThose are the only two things that's going to lower prices.
>>108729892>PCIE4 Drives are hitting end of lifeThat one is, because WD and Sandisk split up again and Sandisk obviously doesn't like one of their products be branded Western Digital.
>>108729911Your dad is not a reputable computer parts vendor.
>>108733688The argument I see against this is AI demand isn't going to slow down, it's going to accelerate, and it'll be a major upgrade cycle in a couple of years. So even if capacity doubles or triples in the next year or two, it'll still get swallowed by AI, especially as they throw all the existing hardware in the dumpster.
Hey lads, Im looking for a new hobby. Thinking coding. I like language c from what I read but Im told i should learn python. It will be more befitting for non-IT fags. Im in investment Banking. But I like the manual, non-bloated nature of C.Is C compatible wherever python is used including software like Alteryx or automated trade system coding
>>108731820just learn to vibeCODE frogBROdon't be a fucking ludder.you don't want to look like this, right?
>>108735072Nothing really. I'm getting into it because I need a hobby. And writing C sounds perfect for hobby. Tho, it would be nice to use your hobby irl for automation and stuff and thats where I feel like picking python.so, I was wondering whether i can use C in place of python and if so how long same c code would be compare to C>>108735089Compile time is a .... >>108735127python can be vibe coded. Unironically, I can learn basic structure of python then just vibe code for automation.
>>108731820I learned to program with both. Python can help you with the basics and jumping into C will get you into an intermediate stage where you can explore more.No language is perfect and some are better for certain usecases than others.
Start with C. It is very simple and you will have a better understanding of how the computer operates. You'll leaen the "laws of physics" of code. Then when you move on to other languages, you will kind if see through the features and you will understand what really has to happen behind the scenes.Python is interesting because it has so many features and libraries that are just C with a thin API wrapper of Python on top. So basically when you write any sort of performant Python, you just try to write as little Python as possible and mostly just cobble together pieces of C code. Python becomes just the wiring.
>>108732089>there's a huge cognitive and maintenance tradeoff using systems-level languages like C for anything non-trivial.it's also simply a huge waste of time because you have to reimplement everything yourself.
>what if we create a tech product that functions worse and is significantly more expensive than an existing nontech version of the product>and then lets market this product to the exact group of people who think the government is using 5g to spy on them via their microwaves and who believe the metal gear solid series was a documentaryI still don't understand why venture capitalists keep funding this shit, "smart guns" or electronically locked guns. it's a tech product with no market and literally EVERY company that has ever announced doing R&D on a smart gun went bankrupt with the exception of smith and wesson which some guy bought, pushed the smart gun shit and then sold for less than 10% of the price he bought the company for. he wiped out like 90% of the market cap, and Mossberg which somehow surivived unscathed.idk how the tech would even work because it would need to actively receive power to fire, so like an electromagnet pulling a locking piece that's blocking the trigger or firing pin because otherwise you could just defeat it by not powering it
>>108734237>t.
>>108734107turn your monitor on
>criminal grabs your gun, points it at you and pulls the trigger>"heh, good luck with that kid, my gun is biometrically locked! only I can fire it! I'm glad I invested in a smart gun, I bet you feel real silly now!">criminal just pistol whips you and caves in your skull instead
>>108729174>it's a tech product with no marketThe idea is once they figure out how to make the tech reliable they will pass a law to force everyone to use smart guns. Then everyone will have a gun that can be turned off by the government at any time on demand which is the ultimate goal behind this technology. They will create a market for the gun forcibly through executive fiat when the time comes regardless of market fundamentals.>idk how the tech would even work because it would need to actively receive power to fire, so like an electromagnet pulling a locking piece that's blocking the trigger or firing pin because otherwise you could just defeat it by not powering it.That's exactly how it works, but the design can actually be defeated WITH the magnets.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ANllOmgJH9Y

Reminder that once AI tycoons are done training their models, inference is literally a money printing machine and profits will be insane
>>108733530Its not gonna work, we are at least 60 year to a working real AI.And that is gonna become Skynet in probably 48 hours.
>>108734070i disagree
>>108733530>>108733810Imagine asking grok about current events and getting replies about week/months old events, or being told that everything that happened a couple of days ago is fake.Good luck removing inference from commercial LLMs.

what do devs even do any more
>>108733391It depends on what you mean by "devs". People who write code by hand, think about algorithms, etc. then they just do dev things as they've always done. On the other hand....

Now I'm not a CVE expert, but isn't disclosing such a dangerous exploit after just one month a bit too early?
>>108735537was it fixed before they disclosed it?
