EUV is hard, but isn't part of the reason why only ASML can make those machines because of the CRADA they have with DOE as a member of the EUV LLC? I believe this agreement was why ASML wasn't allowed to sell their solution to China recently. I bet Intel will have no trouble buying EUV to bring in-house - especially if that serves US strategic interests.
Stanford. I didn't complete public higher education when I was younger, so I've been filling in some of the blanks through independent study lately. So far I've really clicked with cs106a/b homework assignments and Youtube video of Classical Mechanics lectures.
I agree. I'm not even sure I understand defending AWS here from a purely capitalist perspective. When a large company gives thanks to a open source developer they are encouraging that developer to continue contributing. That could possibly benefit the company in the future - to act otherwise doesn't seem to serve their own interests very well.
I worked at a financial institution during a migration from one core system to another. I was their "Administrator of Legacy Systems." At the time I thought that the "legacy" was the data we kept in the system - all of the transaction records, account information, etc. At the time I didn't consider it a pejorative, but seeing how the term draws derision these days I'm not really so sure!
This seems to confirm what I'd read earlier, which is that they're cutting the TBW durability rating in half for this generation. I don't have PCIE 4 at this point, so I'm considering sticking with a 970 for an upcoming upgrade.
It's interesting to learn more about the history here. When UO came out and used the shards concept I just assumed it was a callback to 1988's Ultima 5 and the shards of Mondain's gem. Linguistic history sure is blurry and organic!
Same here! I remember taking a saved game file, backing it up and then earning some gold. Comparing the two roughly told me where the saved game kept its gold. Then I made that number tremendous. I think I was in fifth or sixth grade at the time - it was a lesson that's served me well :)
You seem like you may know what you're doing. Would you mind sharing who your DNS provider is? Do you pay for recursive service?
I don't trust my ISP, so I'd prefer not to use their DNS or to pass requests up to root servers over cleartext. I also had some performance issues with root server requests since they have to chase the authoritive servers.
Right now I'm sending TLS requests to cloudflare, but obviously since I'm not paying for them, I'm the product.
