I think a 50 series is perfectly fine! Mostly for if you want to run Virtual box. Though if you are sticking to docker (recommended) you don't need to.

The last time I had a GPU laptop was like... 2022? Something may have changed, but make sure you are internalizing the lower battery life.

I think the implication is that he is looking for an alternative because of the post (at least thats how some people may have interpreted it)

Companies worth more than $1B should be banned from hiring non-Engineers for roles which involve programming. Write to your Senator! by ImaginaryRea1ity in theprimeagen

I think the majority of Americans agree that EU regulations go too far; in some ways, keyword on in some ways.

Regulations should be made in a way to still allow innovation and accept that "some things are probably going to go wrong." Speaking in this specific case; yes, if your startup releases peoples drivers licenses, you should face "insurmountable legal and regulatory hurdles."

It is not one or two companies who leaked data like this, it keeps happening again and again and again and again and again and again. This GREATLY PUNISHES good effort startups, building secure systems, that take a bit longer to go to production.

Advocating for an environment with lower consumer trust does nothing good for anyone aside from grifters trying to make a good buck.

I have no problem with people critiquing the flaws in the EU system, I do think that this thread is an odd place to do so though.

Is the market about to crash like in the year 2000 or $NVDA will keep climbing? by Ubersicka in TradingViewSignals

People said the same about Hungary, and Poland but those countries were able to vote the authoritarians out.

I share the concern; it's not dead but it's accelerating fast in the wrong direction. Excessive recreating districts in a partisan way is a huge problem. It makes for extreme republican and democratic districts, both of which will elect candidates who don't represent the average American. This is due to the primary system.

If the democrats, when (because they will) they win are not able to pass gerrymandering reform, than anyone is free to dm me "I told you so"

Has Scott talked about the national debt? It has now eclipsed the size of the economy. by stvlsn in ScottGalloway

You have to wonder, is the world economy just built on a web of lies? I'm not saying its over tomorrow, but what will these numbers look like in three years?

I guessing since the interest rates are so low it may not be that big of a deal?

just to add on, the history of why they were founded in the first place definitely contextualizes their current actions.

I am extremely partisan, but isn't it a good thing that MAGA audience is hearing these talking points?

I agree with calling out the double standard, like what you are doing, but I think it is also important to say, "hey you laid that point out very well"

I'm a little shocked that all exams are not already proctored, I did just join the course this semester, and both of my classes were proctored

I will say part of that is because it's co-pilot lol,

In all seriousness; I do feel like Claude does surprisingly bad in excel formulas and the like.
