I believe Office 2019 is the final version you can actually buy, where Office 365 is the "nice documents, shame if anything should happen to them" billing model.
So, have one server for each user. Easy. Realistically, you can get away with 100 or 1000 users on each server, as most real-world tasks aren't computationally intensive, and a whole lot of users can wait idly for I/O to finish.
Sure, "many important classes". And the rest? You know, the stuff almost every business does?
Here's an example: lets say you want to render the next Pixar movie. At what point do more cores stop helping? For reference, you need to render 150,000 frames, each with maybe a half dozen independently rendered effects that are later composited. Could you find a way to use 1 million cores?
Here's an example: lets say you run a web service that gets more than 10,000 hits per second, but does nothing computationally intensive for each request, beyond the normal crypto. Do you care how fast your cores are, or how many cores you have?
Yeah, yeah, academic calculations are great and all, but most of the world need to get shit done.
And what about whataboutism? And what about the normal case for why 95% of the half of the US with net negative savings got that way?
Very few people in their 20s and 30s have anyone but themselves to blame for being in debt. And that's a good thing! It means they can fix their problem, rather then it being out of their control.
Why would you think they're scammers? Just the company? "Augmented reality" is the norm when looking through the sights of a tank, with potential targets identified and highlighted, and the ability to communicate targets directly between teammates - the tank commander can create a target queue for the gunner to "service".
That all harder to do with lightweight gear, of course, but it would certainly be useful! Heck, the point of camouflage is to delay recognition by a couple of seconds, just highlighting potential targets could make a real difference. If you have a data link of some kind between squadmates, you could even implement a "wallhack", highlighting targets behind a wall, but visible to someone else.
Living paycheck to paycheck is usually the result of lack of judgement, ability to plan, or ability to defer gratification. Many people, myself included, eventually grow out of childish spending habits and then magically aren't living paycheck to paycheck any more.
One thing that's important to realize is that the notion that people are "living beyond their means" is generally a false narrative
If you have debt, you are living beyond your means. True story. You'll have to lower your standard of living for a while, of course, if you live within your means. Amazing how savings and then investments add up over the decades though, if you can plan and defer gratification.
For me, I'm going to pay approximately 50% of my income between taxes and healthcare this year and my roads are falling apart
Massive taxes and none of it spent on anything useful? Yeah, I used to live in Cali too. Fortunately, I learned to make plans and defer gratification, and I live in Texas now. No state or local income taxes, and great roads.
Basically, there's a fall scale class war going on that only one side is fighting...
Man, actual Marxist screed. Very 20th century. Can't you at least make an effort to tie it to identity politics and intersectionality? Surely women and minorities are hardest hit?
You couldn't run a modern web browser on that, but that's because modern web browsers and web apps are just about the most bloated sacks of shit imaginable. 10 pounds of shit in a 5 pound sack with a tear in it.
But there's nothing inherently expensive in what a web browser actually accomplishes, other than playing compressed video. Flowing text to fit the screen in real time was impractical for 8-bit processors, but by the 16-but days it was fine. Javascript is horrifying, but there's nothing impossibly slow about parsing a page description / DOM. A good binary format designed for rapid parsing, gifs instead of jpgs, images sized for "back in the day", and a scripting language designed for performance.
Looking around the world, there are more people and places with disposable income than ever in history, and that trend seems likely to continue given the size of China and India.
You can disagree or complain about her policies, but try to present your statements in a civilized adult manner.
"Outrageous misogynist hate speech" occurs when a man disagrees with a woman, in any way, on any topic. By the new rules, it's not technically possible to "disagree or complain in a civilized adult manner" unless you're higher on the privilege scale, e.g., a lesbian woman of color cannot legitimately offend a straight white woman, and the latter must accept all criticism without complaint.
This shit was all more straightforward when it was "serf, Baron, Count, King" instead of the subtle modern privilege scale. A serf can't criticize a baron, and a baron must accept all criticism from the king. Serfs cannot exclude the king from any gathering, but the king can exclude serfs from every gathering. Exact same rules set as today, but the titles made it all so much more clear.
The real problems are the people who think this is justification for eliminating anonymity entirely, and the absolutists who defend anonymity to the point where they won't accept any compromise.
I agree with you in general, though I've never used my legal name online in any way publicly visible, and I don't understand why anyone would. I like the Slashdot middle ground, when we're effectively anonymous, but there are at least some incentives to not pseudonymously be an ass.
Maybe she should just grow a little skin over those nerve endings.
If only. TFA just goes to show that no matter how hard you work not to offend a "diversity leader", you will fail and offend them unacceptably. The right answer is to not set a foot down that path, and tell them to GTFO and come back when they have, as you say, grown a thicker skin.
It's not like Facebook lacks controls on who gets to talk to you (other than advertisers). If you're constantly offended by people you've chosen to associate with, or people you must associate with, chances are in this century the problem is you. "If everyone you see is an asshole, look in the mirror."
Hey, I know. We should use asychhronous techniques! At both the circuit and the architecture level. (P.S. This is sarcasm, which students of Digital Logic and Computer Engineering may find amusing.)
The other half of the joke is that async I/O was the big new feature of a recent C# version, which means it will be the hot new thing in Java in another couple of years.
I would say that architecture is changing, at least for production systems. It's all about scaling horizontally instead of vertically. Sure, individual cores aren't much faster, but a couple years ago I launched 30,000 cores in two minutes on AWS, and about a year ago EC2 Spot announced a million-core stunt of some sort.
A million cores from COTS technology is a lot of performance.
Slashdot Mirror
People like to watch challenging things done well. Sounds reasonable to me.
They think they're maybe bigger than the other bird, so of course it will change course to avoid them. They're playing chicken.
I made the same assumption, but the number seemed too high. Washington is full of cheap whores.

What % of the Chinese and Indian population has disposable income today? 5%? 10%? It's only going up. That's exactly what "emerging economy" means.
And what about medical debt?
And what about whataboutism? And what about the normal case for why 95% of the half of the US with net negative savings got that way?

You don't ... do backend software, do you.

The motto wasn't "do no evil", it was "don't, be evil". The comma was sometimes overlooked - typical small print from an advertising company.
Looking around the world, there are more people and places with disposable income than ever in history, and that trend seems likely to continue given the size of China and India.
That will in no way prevent it from being the hot new thing in Java in a couple of years. Probably with all new libraries.
You just need to be smart enough to learn how to solve your problems with more cores!
My, these assertions are easy to make.
When an angry politician weaponizes regulatory oversight, it's always legitimate and never mean spirited, right?
