stop shilling this laptop you fucking loser

I understand you must have preordered this shit laptop and as a way to make yourself feel better and justify your awful purchase, you continually shitpost this.
but in the end, winfag machines won't ever be as /cozy/ as this
>reading leaks about AMD's performance
>articles compare it to 2011 intel X series CPU's and old Haswell i7's
>its mixed between in results in both ST and MT testing
>people claiming its over
>>59024819
I don't think Zen will be the end all Intel killer.
But if they can offer a reasonable price for a higher end CPU, it will be a success.
>>59024839
the fact that its being benchmarked vs years old intels isnt much to be anticipated
>>59024921
To be fair, anything above Sandy bridge is a perfectly usable CPU.
The 4790k is still god tier.

Heya /g/! I got a Java exam incoming and i have tried to do the next task for 5 hours now. So: how do i create a subroutine to compare 2 java dates? It needs to return either 1, 0 or -1. I have to us compareTo and both dates have to be parameters.
>>59023527public function suchCock (date Uno, date Dos) {
if Uno > Dos return 1
else if Dos > Uno return -1
else return 0
}
Usually dates are converted to UNIX time stamps, pretty sure Java would have a date object so look that up. Simple function above, obviously not syntactically correct but you get the jist. Easy as balls.
hmm.. it says that i got to add a static method compareTo(date1,date2) to Dates-class. I have tried like you did, couldn't make it work.
>>59023527
Literally read the Java API.

Let's talk about something other than the usual banter for a moment.
Disregarding the obnoxiousness and retardation associated with actually getting a tape drive set up, where is the best place to actually acquire one? Online venues seem to suck donkey balls. Ebay is horrendously expensive, and the usual tech surplus websites are asking a lot as well. Anybody know some places to even find one?
>>59023454
>buying this extremely complicated and relatively niche good is expensive!
No fucking shit. Get it off Ebay or Amazon.
>>59023485
Obvious post is obvious?
How many times are we going to fucking go in circles anon?
I'm trying to determine if there is some other obscure website where tech like this gets sold for bargain basement bin prices. FUck,even an LTO 1 Drive would be fun to tinker with.
>>59023552
My guess would be government auctions? Liquidations?

>On my first official day rotating on the team, my new manager sent me a string of messages over company chat. He was in an open relationship, he said, and his girlfriend was having an easy time finding new partners but he wasn't.
[...]
>I expected that I would report him to HR, they would handle the situation appropriately, and then life would go on - unfortunately, things played out quite a bit differently. When I reported the situation, I was told by both HR and upper management that even though this was clearly sexual harassment and he was propositioning me, it was this man's first offense, and that they wouldn't feel comfortable giving him anything other than a warning and a stern talking-to.
[...]
>Over the next few months, I began to meet more women engineers in the company. As I got to know them, and heard their stories, I was surprised that some of them had stories similar to my own. Some of the women even had stories about reporting the exact same manager I had reported, and had reported inappropriate interactions with him long before I had even joined the company. It became obvious that both HR and management had been lying about this being "his first offense", and it certainly wasn't his last. Within a few months, he was reported once again for inappropriate behavior, and those who reported him were told it was still his "first offense". The situation was escalated as far up the chain as it could be escalated, and still nothing was done.
>Myself and a few of the women who had reported him in the past decided to all schedule meetings with HR to insist that something be done.
[...]
>It was such a blatant lie that there was really nothing I could do. There was nothing any of us could do. We all gave up on Uber HR and our managers after that. Eventually he "left" the company. I don't know what he did that finally convinced them to fire him.

>Things were beginning to get even more comically absurd with each passing day. Every time something ridiculous happened, every time a sexist email was sent, I'd sent a short report to HR just to keep a record going. Things came to a head with one particular email chain from the director of our engineering organization concerning leather jackets that had been ordered for all of the SREs. See, earlier in the year, the organization had promised leather jackets for everyone in organization, and had taken all of our sizes; we all tried them on and found our sizes, and placed our orders. One day, all of the women (there were, I believe, six of us left in the org) received an email saying that no leather jackets were being ordered for the women because there were not enough women in the organization to justify placing an order. I replied and said that I was sure Uber SRE could find room in their budget to buy leather jackets for the, what, six women if it could afford to buy them for over a hundred and twenty men. The director replied back, saying that if we women really wanted equality, then we should realize we were getting equality by not getting the leather jackets. He said that because there were so many men in the org, they had gotten a significant discount on the men's jackets but not on the women's jackets, and it wouldn't be equal or fair, he argued, to give the women leather jackets that cost a little more than the men's jackets. We were told that if we wanted leather jackets, we women needed to find jackets that were the same price as the bulk-order price of the men's jackets.
>I forwarded this absurd chain of emails to HR, and they requested to meet with me shortly after. I don't know what I expected after all of my earlier encounters with them, but this one was more ridiculous than I could have ever imagined. The HR rep began the meeting by asking me if I had noticed that *I* was the common theme in all of the reports I had been making, [...]

>[...] and that if I had ever considered that I might be the problem. I pointed out that everything I had reported came with extensive documentation and I clearly wasn't the instigator (or even a main character) in the majority of them - she countered by saying that there was absolutely no record in HR of any of the incidents I was claiming I had reported (which, of course, was a lie, and I reminded her I had email and chat records to prove it was a lie). She then asked me if women engineers at Uber were friends and talked a lot, and then asked me how often we communicated, what we talked about, what email addresses we used to communicate, which chat rooms we frequented, etc. - an absurd and insulting request that I refused to comply with. When I pointed out how few women were in SRE, she recounted with a story about how sometimes certain people of certain genders and ethnic backgrounds were better suited for some jobs than others, so I shouldn't be surprised by the gender ratios in engineering. Our meeting ended with her berating me about keeping email records of things, and told me it was unprofessional to report things via email to HR.
>Less than a week after this absurd meeting, my manager scheduled a 1:1 with me, and told me we needed to have a difficult conversation. He told me I was on very thin ice for reporting his manager to HR. California is an at-will employment state, he said, which means we can fire you if you ever do this again. I told him that was illegal, and he replied that he had been a manager for a long time, he knew what was illegal, and threatening to fire me for reporting things to HR was not illegal. I reported his threat immediately after the meeting to both HR and to the CTO: they both admitted that this was illegal, but none of them did anything. (I was told much later that they didn't do anything because the manager who threatened me "was a high performer").

Retard webdevs realize that HTML is not programming so they drop all the performance and use JS to render/place HTML elements to get a feel of being a "coder".
