I've been using cuda for cracking hashes without issue. Now if someone at Nvidia could work on not making their driver suck at daily driving on Linux it would be great

I tried to watch the Thursday night football recap yesterday and accidentally opened YouTube instead of smarttube. I was shocked. I watched a minute of ads to start and one minute in I had another minute of ads. YouTube was basically unwatchable.

There was a time that I thought people didn't understand the consequences. Now I realize that most people are just entirely apathetic.

Alternative take. Fight hard for a promotion, of course if you can get a raise and promotion that is ideal. But usually companies get hung up on money.

If you can't get both don't hesitate to say, "I just want the title I don't need extra salary or anything. We can even take some of the extra work I've been doing and make them a normal part of my key responsibilities. "

Then as soon as you get it start applying to new jobs with that as your title. New jobs will always pay you significantly more for your new better title than the 2k or so you would get from a raise. I used this trick to triple my salary over 6 years, moving through a few jobs and from a receptionist to a Sr manager.

Programming teams I've worked with are a joke.

Company A: We got hacked and the lead dev argued for days it wasn't a hack. Malware was actively being served to customers during this time period because she refused to deal with it and there was no security team.

Company B: programming team was the IT guys nephew and some random UI designer who hadn't finished college and was never able to be employed after finishing college..

Company C: We interviewed a candidate who was way over qualified and would make our life so easy because he was eager and hungry. Instead we hired a bootcamper who had never heard of docker (half our infra is docker), react, or anything other than vanilla JavaScript. She failed our practical but still got hired because the hiring manager wanted and assistant. She has become a glorified project manager, but still has the title software engineer.
