Aeron is nice in unconditioned room, embody better in conditioned.
>>61436346
Aerons are about $1500 where I live with almost no second-hand market.
Kind of leaning towards a vertagear 350SE just because it's $500 cheaper.
>>61436591
~1500 is a worldwide price, afaik. Worked 3 months for it.
Quick, make a program that outputs an "ASCII art" cross of asterisks in your favourite language!

Why did you /g/uys choose Python over Ruby?
Did you not know how inferior python is..
>>61434581
I didn't.
>ruby for comfy scripting

>c for stuff that needs to go fast
>>61434623
>c for stuff that needs to go fast
Assembly or GTFO
>>61434623
Python has all that too
Do the woman that made this law know that there's a psychological build up of desire in men the longer they go without exposure to porn or IRL sex? Think of what you would have been like once you hit age 17 if you had no prior exposure to naked women and porn on the internet between the ages of 12 and 16. Shit would hit the fan HARD and you'd be fucking the first 5/10 chick you could get your hands on.
Is this technology?

Hi all,
This is where we wait for the latest AMD graphics card which AMD will surely release in a timely manner and will definitely blow all of our minds, no questions asked, 100% guaranteed, no chance it'll fail, just you wait.

RX Vega makes its first of three appearances TODAY in Budapest at Akvárium Klub. Tickets are sold out: https://www.eventbrite.ca/e/rx-gamer-talalkozo-budapesten-tickets-36122124246
If you're in Budapest, go take some videos and leak them here, then leak them to VideoCardz so they can then be leaked here too.
Next stop is PDXLAN in Portland from July 21st to the 23rd.

That means literally nothing for a programming language. Any language with a proprietary reference implementation is usually laughed out of the room.

I'm making a site that can store videos. up to three videos can be featured though, and that goes in its own section as well as the normal videos section.
How would I represent this in a relational database without wasting a bunch of space (ex: boolean values in a "featured" field)?

What extensions will you miss, when Mozilla releases Firefox 57 in November of this year, effectively eliminating nearly 90% of all extensions currently available for Firefox?
None, I haven't used Fx in almost a decade
Won't the developers who maintain those extensions update the files to port them? whatever happens, it doesn't affect me because I haven't updated since FF 46 which runs perfectly with all the extensions I need.
>>61424351
I believe you, because back then they were really pushing people to use "Fx" as a shorthand for Firefox.

Hello Apache helicopter.
Ryzen has been out for a while now and it seems that Intel can't compete in terms of price/performance.
Tell me why I shouldn't fall for the Ryzen meme?
I'm considering upgrading my i5 2500k to a Ryzen 7 1700 with DDR4 3200mhz memory.
Thoughts?
>>61420447
I got an 1600 and it's better than i expected.
>>61420545
I was originally considering the 1600, but I might as well shell out for an 8core/16thread for what I'm doing.
Since working in the software industry I've noticed programming compile times and IDE responsiveness is very considerable even for a decent intel i7 system. I think the 8core/16threads are really going to help with this.
Also, I'm fairly certain I'm getting CPU bottle necked when I have full quality streams open on twitch while playing games. Chrome uses like 20% of my i5 2500k while watching on source quality.
>>61420447
Should be a solid upgrade. The 1700 is still on sale I think.
