Post-post PC: Materials and Technologies That Could Revive Enthusiast Computing
Dputiger writes "Given the recent emphasis on mobile computing and the difficulty of scaling large cores, it's easy to think that enthusiast computing is dead. Easy — but not necessarily true. There are multiple ways to attack the problem of continued scaling, including new semiconductor materials, specialized co-processor units that implement software applications in silicon, and enhanced cooling techniques to reduce on-die hot spots."
Take a second look. I made a post in their Disqus comments pointing out this error. The author of the article replied in less then ten minutes acknowledging the error with a promise to fix it. The error was fixed by the time I hit refresh. Instead of being all high and mighty, perhaps next time you should help out. I did, and it worked.

Instead of being all high and mighty, perhaps next time you should help out...
Why?
Historically speaking, helping out doesn't help. Putting a warning (of sorts) in this forum lets a whole bunch of potential readers save time.
That's not being "high and mighty", that's making an assessment of quality... which is what our teachers do and what we are taught to do ourselves.
"High and mighty" is calling your own actions better than the actions of someone else, which is what you did.
