Surprise. I hate the gift, but I'll smile and return it.
Surprises are great and should be reserved for genuine situations rather than breaking a combined bank account open to buy some expensive utility devices and hope that it meets a specific use case all while conforming to the expectation that on the day she needs to get something.
Honestly American definitions of surprises are crappy.
Indeed. Why can't there be more sensible people like you. Honestly I don't understand a lot of Americans. It's all about fake smiles and then hoping no one notices that you regift.
Of course they are. They are things of interest to you (or you wouldn't be asking them) directly related to the *conditions* of how you would be working. They are prime things to bring up during a negotiation unless you're stuck applying for cubicle roles where negotiation doesn't really come into it.
SMART is definitely a thing for SSDs. The only quirk is NVMe drives, they don't access the drive controllers in the same way so some SMART software doesn't work with them.
SSDs report metrics such as total read, total written, unexpected power loss, power loss protection failure (if an SSD has it), or the one of interest to the GP: 231 - Life Left, 231 - Endurance Remaining, or 233 - Media Wearout.
My NVMe drive reports two temperatures, the controller (which should stay cool) and the NAND (which should stay warm).
The reason that you *consider* paying apple memory prices is that apple's specs for memory are something like a half a standard deviation higher than other good memory.
Except you get basically zero performance benefit for it, so no.
You missed my point. What kind of a weird arse computer build specs out something like a Ryzen Threadripper and then doesn't have a dedicated GPU. If you think it's the top of the line CPUs that are finding their way to industry then it's not my perception of reality that needs to be questioned.
Posted from my work PC with a low end processor where it makes perfect sense to include VCE on the AMD APU
Naming conventions stopped being relevant beyond the target for the machine a long time ago, and by that I mean designations for overclocking or for laptops etc.
In general there are so many different variants and feature sets in any CPU suited to such a large number of different ideal workloads that no sane naming convention could keep up. Not unless you start following industrial product naming conventions such as:
Of course having Al Gore on the climate change band wagon didn't help.
Really? Because by all accounts it seems to have put the entire situation in the spotlight which seems pretty damn important if you're going to change the behviour and opinion of the human race.
people don't like that Google had to abide by his employment agreement
Speculation. Or do you have evidence that he has a $90m payout in his employment agreement? Looking into this it would appear the $90m was a voluntary payout from Google nothing to do with his actual employment agreement.
Can anyone name a single instance of relatively recent sexual harassment allegation to be conclusively proven in the court of law?
Why are you changing the legal bar? Nothing has ever needed to be proven conclusively, only beyond reasonable doubt. And if you still think that reasonable doubt exists about the Hollywood #metoo "victims" then you really haven't been paying attention at all.
Do you by any chance like beer? Still like beer? Have always liked beer?
Don't be. An extension on the other comment where I described these pressures being routine would also be to describe the risks and damage mechanisms of what is being proposed to be laughably easy to deal with.
Many thousands of PSI is trivial. Try doing many thousands of PSI processing hazardous / explosive matierals with known agressive corrosion mechanisms with varying and unkonwn concentrations in your feed.
It's the only example I can think of where energy is routinely stored and discharged at thousands of PSI, and safely.
You clearly haven't spent any time around industry. Charging and discharging of pressure vessels is quite routine and the safety aspects of it are well understood. Look to the energy industry to see that we are also good at understanding of how to store high pressure gasses in underground caverns.
As I type this we're doing maintenance on vessels that are rated to 22000 psi which were built in the 50s. High pressure for the energy industry but quite common in the chemicals industry. But in general the process industry laughs at the low pressures used for machine tools, but then for good reason too, and it's in the description. Pounds per Square Inch. Machine tools rely on increasing the latter while reducing the former to create incredible force. The process industry can't reduce the former.
Yes exactly. As I said this is why AMD APUs have the same functionality, as does my several year old Core i5 with Iris graphics. However it makes no sense on chips in the class which we are discussing.
Most people will not be doing 4 GeForce 2080 RTX's, and/or 4 NVME devices, but the fact is that many people have money to burn
Remember also we're talking about people buying threadrippers / 9900Ks. In the venn diagram of people with money to burn and customers for these products overlap greatly.
Bad move, don't ask salary negotiating questions during the interview. Wait until they've offered you the job before you start discussing some of those details. It puts you in a much stronger negotiating position.
QSV is in part of the CPUs which have a dedicated video engine. AMD's APUs have the same thing (called VCE). However this feature is quite irrelevant on a high performance desktop which will have a dedicated GPU in it anyway.
I am very curious as to why QSV exists on desktop processors. QSV makes sense for mobile chips and AMD's APUs have a similar functionality. But frankly QSV is a slow dog compared to offloading rendering onto the compressor in even an old GTX1060.
These features exist in video hardware, so it makes no sense to duplicate them in the CPU, espeically given the video cards typically have a shorter lifetime (for the power hungry) than a typical CPU. (At least for me personally, I've bought twice as many graphics cards in my time than CPUs and no I don't run SLI).
So in summary:
Try that with your AMD processor:-)
No thanks. I'll do it on my NVIDIA GPU. Also realtime speeds? You're ONLY achieving realtime speeds? Shouldn't you be getting close to double realtime speeds at 4K (assuming 60fps progressive content) from a dedicated video encoder?
If you're running true single core workloads then you're missing the core boost advantage of Zen+. Yeah at stock frequency they are outpaced by Intel. However when I look at my own Zen+ Ryzen if I run single core loads I typically see 300MHz over a loaded multi-threadded situation on that core, and over 600MHz above the base clock rate. This is also the reason why overclockers pushing the hell out of the chip don't see much single threadded improvement in their benchmarks.
In terms of peformance vs Intel they are only marginaly behind. In terms of performance over the industry over time well that is a depressing result for the entire industry as a whole when you compare the past 5 years. For instance my recent upgrade from a 5 year old i5 netted me a 20% improvement for single threading. Had I gone intel I would have had a 24% improvment! Hurrah! Mind you I got a 200% increase on multi-threadded workloads though.
Speaking of multithreading, full disclosure: Posted using Firefox with a single tab open currently running more than 6 threads.
The world isn't as single threadded as you may think.
since it's going to have to leave it's sandbox to scan your file system and it's going to have to have root or near root to do it. That's probably why they're the "first", because it's not a very good idea.
By your logic all sandboxes are not a very good idea. You're missing the key component here, the attack surface of the privileged code becomes smaller when all it does is fetches stuff and hands it off to a sandboxed environment.
I know. We don't need farmers or other rural weirdos. Everyone should just move into the city. Seriously food comes in shops. What does rural America even contribute? Let them rot!

Yes, I could. And eliminate all surprise.

None of those are salary negotiating questions.
Of course they are. They are things of interest to you (or you wouldn't be asking them) directly related to the *conditions* of how you would be working. They are prime things to bring up during a negotiation unless you're stuck applying for cubicle roles where negotiation doesn't really come into it.
salary range
So something that is able to be negotiated about.

Strawman augment is strawman. But thanks for trusting my words and intentionally missing the point.
Naming conventions stopped being relevant beyond the target for the machine a long time ago, and by that I mean designations for overclocking or for laptops etc.

AMD-GENERATION-CORECOUNT-PACKAGE-SMT-FEATURE1-FEATURE2-FEATURE3-FEATURE4 . etc .
Seeing as deaths from air pollution have been falling for the last 30 years
It is quite irrelevant if something is falling. What is relevant is if there is an ongoing impact and at what rate it is falling.
Of course having Al Gore on the climate change band wagon didn't help.
Really? Because by all accounts it seems to have put the entire situation in the spotlight which seems pretty damn important if you're going to change the behviour and opinion of the human race.
So you double proved the GP's point. That humans can affect the climate both on accident and on purpose.

NPC script stuck in a loop again. Someone reboot.
How do you know it's stuck in a loop? I mean it may well be, but unless it stops being on point how will we know?
I'd be nervous, though

I cannot think of a reason to actually render the notch, even for the top.
Who is rendering a notch? I thought this was specifically about *not* rendering the notch.

No. Yes. No. Wait!
