I was at Intel when they made Bob Swan (COO) the CEO.

Going only on the one day point, I wouldn't recommend it for Nvidia.

I'm not too worried. That version of the virus only gets more dangerous after being cleared.

++coronavirus though...

You may want to meet with a marriage counselor.


I thought that was only a table saw thing.

Do some band saws also have that now?

Yes, that said I think you’d have to be pretty sloppy about safety to cut yourself with a regular bandsaw. I have a sawstop table saw and I don’t see the need for that on a bandsaw


Yup, SawStop do make band saws now[0]

Also a former Akamai employee.

I left because I didn't like the pressure / pager duty, but I seriously respect how smooth and well thought out their operations were.


This reminds me of something I've been curious about.

When e.g. memory manufacturers don't collude, they end up on synchronized boom-and-bust cycles.

But it's also illegal for them for form a cartel, which IIUC would have the benefit of smoothing the supply:demand ratio over time.

Is there any truly good solution to this?

(I'm not an economist, so it's quite possible that my question isn't even cogent.)


> Is there any truly good solution to this?

Yes, what smart RAM manufacturers (or who've been longer in the business) are doing: ramp up production capacity, but do so gradually.

Those ramp-up timelines tend to be longer than the markets' boom & bust cycles. So they'll be looking at longER-term trends to decide what to invest in & when.


Which might be what is happening here: they worry (or worried? supposedly Micron is building a new factory?) this AI boom will/would go bust soon, so (too much) investment in new capacity might not be worth it?

Solution: Don't become too dependent on small number of customers.

... or save some from the boom so you can survive the bust until the next boom, (AKA being financially responsible).

Does anyone know Microsoft's justification for that policy?

Windows has a builtin keyboard shortcut to open LinkedIn. This is just how they do things.

I thought that couldn't really be true. I was wrong.

All I have to say is: lmao

"Of course we don't make mistakes. There's no need to delay our updates."

Yeah, but "somebody unlocked the story for you"!

My first thought was "Please leave such jokes for Reddit."

But now I'm curious in which subreddit(s) this belongs.


given the volume of bots there -- most of them

Making comparisons to Reddit commentary violates the hn guidelines.

Perhaps part of the answer is liability.
