Classic oh we ran out of money lets sue to cover our issues, because its always the software's fault.
I can see this as a CEO. I get spared because I build the hardware and live in the kernel. Example 4k to 64k seems easy until you realize you can still install 4k Nvidia drivers that will lead to memory instability and you find out the hard way. Then you redo it and it's fine. Dealing with overheating all the time because pretty much an AI box at full speed for a week gets thermal issues. But if I wasn't dealing with the physical substrate I would be the guy who says AI can do that without knowing the actual physical costs.
Nice someone who actual works with the systems. Thank you.
Ah so Vegas is there for a reason.
Wow just strings in files. Are you jumping node to node via pointers index free?
Yeah dumb name, but we will still use these we have been using Ampere in our office.
Same here. Wayland has been fine. (Hyprland)
This has been fun we can task our nemotron-3-super model to run over night when our desktops are idle. 4070s and 96gb of ram works fine. Slow but does it's job.
This is how we design at HewesNguyen AI. We are both MIS so once LLMs came out we where like sweet whole teams that can be tasked for one thing done well. Thank you Unix Philosophy
So the DOW is using it till the mid term elections?
Fun to watch my generation who was raised by helicopter parents turn into tank parents using scorched earth techniques.
The marvel cxl 2.0 ddr4 card Serve the Home used for kvcache speed ups. And I am personally looking forward to cxl 3 and memory coherence across my system builds.

Why is it bad for AI to replace an enterprise software layer? Other than invalidating past investments.
Ha this moltbook gone crazy.
Sweet I have about 500 of games on gog and I use heroic launcher on cachyos. Probably a total of 1.3k of titles across steam, gog and epic any idea gaming isn't Linux now is dumb thinking.
Glad to see gog work on native.
One c suite is much cheaper and easier to control then two. Reminds me of many reversed mergers in oil and gas.
This makes total sense his DC in Memphis will be his Houston. That DC will control all space flights and space robots.
The a human would do it better people are hilarious. Given how many times I have been hit by human drives on my bike and watched others get creamed by a cars. One time in Boulder at a flashing cross walk a person ran right through it and the biker they creamed got stuck in the roof rack.
Houdini,3dcoat,Nuke are the three things we pay for, will use Maya when we work with Maya artists, but dcc is mostly 3dcoat-blender-houndini workflow.
Ah 3d is fine with Maya and all the real VFX running on Linux. And we haven't had problems with game dev for years on Linux. Agree otherwise good to see another join.
Yeah passing through usb devices to a VM for audio seems to be a dark art like working with a bunch of analog equipment. Everything has to be tuned. I do understand why a bare metal windows and/or mac computer is always in a studio, one can skip the head ache. Even if main DAW is Linux.
Yes Ableton, VST and usb. I have used the Coreweave windows VM with Nvidia to run everything audio and video, though haven't routed USB devices to it.
Cognitively it's easier to just buy a second PC for windows. But threadripper pro etc have so many cores and pcie lanes it's easy to run multiple OS VMs with dedicated GPUs at close to native speed in one box.
Windows VM with USB passthrough. I haven't had any issues with USB devices this way.
I have Windows only audio and 3d software. I ended up with a windows VM with GPU passthrough on Linux. It sits on its own m2 drive for the rare occasion I need to dual boot. So Windows has been become legacy software for me. (IClone and CC).
And Steam Deck is there.
But I think the desktop interface is legacy for anyone under the age of 25, I get a kick out of watching them navigate a desktop.
We do have a trojan horse with social security. Overnight we can become the largest single owner of global corporate stocks and bonds.
The half baked hardware comments are humerous, because pretty much any piece of software is half baked if we are lucky.
But have they hired anyone back?
Yes to this keep core base load in your own bare metal systems, use the clouds for what they do best.
My daily driver is Rocky 10, but my control plane is a Pixel 6 on the ATT network but I control almost nothing on that layer. It is why I have been moving most of my core workloads off SaaS and back to local.
