We have hit the limits of silicon
The only way we can get better CPUs is make physically bigger chips and try to optimize

What's it like to be so young not to remember being able to hit walls with a Q6600 on release?

How do I protect my system from data degradation and bit rot? I have it running in a faraday cage with a primary SSD mirrored by a RAID0 HDD array, both ssd and hdd array changed every six months, and an emergency redunancy high speed SD flash card memory array changed every quarter. It feels like I'm in a constant battle to maintain data integrity and I feel like my process is only barely cutting it.
Would it be worth it to invest in a UPS/generator protected ECC ram drive NAS unit, or does the network transfer risk further data degradation?

Can computer hardware get "fat" and die? That is to say, can they get bloated with so much software that they practically die of a heart attack.

Why are there so many Pajeets in tech?
26 Posts / 5 Images

It takes a pretty inexpensive model of an abundant tool to develop some high-demand skills. One would expect a large population of limited means to avail themselves to that, especially if they've got passing familiarity with English.
I'm not a Pajeet but I love tech for this very reason. The barrier to entry is low and the ongoing costs are electricity and the trouble of finding educational materials. Tinkering only costs time. There's no question of finding a rich factory owner to buy machinery or having to roll pennies to afford materials costs for practice.
>>
Indian people have an uncanny ability to accept a pretty shit lot in life so the arbitrary """requirements""" of modern codemonkey enslavement are readily accepted by people desperate to flee a life of poverty and disease and willing to fully delude themselves with the ideology of empty Western lies and promises if it means a chance at a better life for themselves.
>>
tech is one of the few paths where you can determine skill level through simple tests, rather than doling out cash for years and hoping to be titled by an adult babysitting organization
combine that with tons of pajeets and a full country, and they're finding the quickest path out

afaik to be called an n-bit processor the operand size must be n bits
are there some operations that only allow 8-bit operands?
>>
>>59630370
Because it has 8-bit registers.
