Because you’d be denying cast and crew of their royalties?
If people pirated on a mass scale, the losses would add up. Whatever you may think about streaming platforms, don’t punish the people just trying to make a living.
That will probably happen eventually, but right now RISC-V only has the hp for embedded or peripheral uses. It will continue to nip at ARM’s heels for the next 5-10 years.
Seems there's an awful lot of slideware in the high-performance RISC-V department. We'll see when/if the rubber hits the road, I suppose.
Longer term, I think the future looks bright for RISC-V. If nothing else, at least the Chinese are investing heavily into it, for obvious reasons wrt avoiding sanctions and such.
That said, it seems the desktop/server high performance implementations are from SiFive in the US.
The main obvious reason is to dodge global IP issues with arm or x86*.
Trump is probably aware that "Big Tech" is a domestic issue (cr*ping the world, won't help to make america great again...). And he is right to push hard on the silicon, but "cleaning up" what's on top of it... ooooof!
“He didn’t process information in any conventional sense. He didn’t read. He didn’t really even skim. Some believed that for all practical purposes he was no more than semi-literate.”
I think that's a sign of senility more than anything else. There's been articles which show clips of his speech in the 1980s and 1990s. His vocabulary was much more extensive, and he used more complex sentences than the word salad he spews out these days.
Using AI makes me want to resign from life, it removes all the fun and joy from coding.
I absolutely will resign if my job becomes 100% generating and reviewing AI generated slop, having to review my coworker's AI slop has already made my job way less fun.
Yeah, I'm feeling this. I'm almost 40 and I'm really not interested in continuing the AI slop treadmill that I'm seeing stretching before me
I am my own agent in the world. I don't get any satisfaction from using AI to do my work and offloading my responsibility and my skills to a computer. Computers are tools for me to use, not partners or subordinates
Strongly thinking about going back to school to retrain into something else aside from software. The only thing stopping me at the moment is that I think AI is making every industry and job similarly stupid and fruitless right now so changing lanes will still land me in the "AI pilot" career path
What a shitty time to be alive. I used to love technology. Now I'm coming to loathe it. It is diminishing what it means to be human
But that is still highly skilled BS work, and I would not call it BS work.
What i was referring to was the class of work individuals do that someone off the street can be trained in thirty minutes. Building a cluster is more challenging.
Not sure why I picked up three down votes. Must have touched a nerve!
It's pretty BS, trust me! The work is automated to the point that it takes more time to hand off/hand in. Very performative.
We could get this to the point of taking people off the street/putting them to task... but instead, we've collectively found it more valuable to push the spreadsheet along a few cells at a time, together.
Perhaps it's mistaken to localize the BS; it's shared. Soft and tends to spread.
