Looking at buying a lenovo thinkpad with the sales on atm in australia.
Either E470, E570 or E570p.
E470 $950 with $650 savings
E570 $1,000 with $500 savings.
E570p $1150 with $150 savings.
Currently E470 is easily winning the race for me, im only going to be using it for UNI shit, basic coding shit and fucking around with linux here and there. No gaming, i have pc for that.
Any reason i shouldnt get Thinkpad E470 and got with E570/p. or a completly different option all together.
Thanks

I'd recommend staying far away from the E series. Step up to T or X series, buy refurbished or used if you can't afford a new one.
>>60542926
why is that
>>60542937
Cheap build quality, skimping on various shit like wifi to save money.
E series are Ideapads with a Thinkpad logo, you might as well buy a cheap HP or Acer machine if you intend to go that route.

How can you get 5 hours of sleep in 30 minutes?

You're hyper from the lack of sleep. Enjoy it, and prepare for the inevitable crash.
I usually don't feel it until the day after.

How did people do futures and asynchronous programming before C++11 introduced the <future> library?
Did they use threads to modify arguments passed in by reference?
Also, futures are just nicely encapsulated threads, right? It's the same mechanisms behind the scenes?
>>60542833
asians are such a failed race. can't even keep their eyes open properly.
>>60542833
The same way futures are implemented in C++11? Thread pools, mutexes, and atomics have been around for a while.

Can u explain what this is I am reading MSDN class library.String^ userRoot = "HKEY_CURRENT_USER";
What is this '^' after String.
Is this some wrapper to std::string ?
Lisa Su confirms 7nm tapeouts scheduled for late 2017. Hopefully these are both Zen 2 and Navi. We should see a 7nm Zen 2 based Ryzen sometime in H1 2019.

Harlan Sur - JPMorgan:
>We talked initially in our discussion about the momentum carrying forward for the team and I think one of the things that you guys did a good job at Analyst Day was helping us to understand what’s next, right? And a good example of that is if we look at Zen 2, which you discussed at Analyst Day, that’s going to be ready sort of 2018, 2019 timeframe. Just maybe discuss in a little bit more granularity about the potential launch dates. These products are proposed to be using 7-nanometer technology from your foundry partners. When do you think such products are going to be sort of ready for tape-out and when do we see these products sort of out in the market?
Lisa Su:
>Yes, so our goal is to be very competitive in terms of our long-term roadmap. If you look at the foundry 7-nanometer roadmap compared to some of the other technologies out there, it’s actually really competitive. And I think the gap between sort of the foundry roadmap and like the Intel roadmap has gotten a lot closer. Our goal is to be aggressive with 7-nanometer technology. We will be doing tape-outs later this year. And as we get closer to production, we’ll give more insights there. But the idea is to be very competitive throughout the product portfolio.
Get your anuses ready.
There's a chance mobile APUs might roll out sooner since they're not getting the 14nm+ refresh like desktop chips are.

Nice link pleb.
Sup /g/, /sci/fag here. I am going to try to learn C over the summer in one month. I know python, matlab, and R in the sense that I can use those languages to do scientific computing. A person in my lab knows C very well and I will be able to ask them questions in case I get stuck. What book would you recommend for such an endeavor? So far, my plan was to use google to find a syllabus for a C course and use whatever book they have provided I can find the courses homeworks and solutions, etc.

C is fast as fuck, it allows certain numerical methods and schemes that would otherwise be too slow to be considered applicable to be used.

Can someone tell me what this port is? I found it on the bottom of my laptop.
>>60541201
That's a centipede.
>>60541201
docking station or slap-on battery.
>>60541201
Probably to connect to a docking station or else it's a maintenance port.
Does any of you use the fingerprint scanner in a Xiaomi phone? Are there any significant risks to user's privacy? Do I have to also be afraid of accidentally touching it even if I don't configure it as an authorisation method?
>>60541170
If you're worried about privacy, you should just not use a smartphone.
>>60541170
>trusting chinkshit
>giving them your fingerprints
kek'd.
are you retarded?
>>60541170
I use scanner on my Zuk. Obviously it's a risk to privacy, but no less than using pocket botnet.
i plan on majoring in It and I'm wondering if this is a good idea or not, is the pajeet thing a meme or is it real ?
most of /g/ cannot get a job because they're autistic morons with ZERO social skills (and programming skills for that matter).
They blame their unemployment on pajeet, when in reality it's just because they're fuckboys and employers want nothing to do with these losers.
It's real to a certain extent. If you can do your job remotely from anywhere then you can be outsourced quite easily. I worked with a company once who outsourced all their networking to Egypt. What a cluster fuck that was to work with them.

How do /g/ clean their mouse?
what is the best way to clean a mouse? Does boiling water + dish detergent and submerging he mouse in it clean it?
how the fuck do you even get it dirty? do you pick your ass or something?

Use a q-tip and let it fray as you rub it.
If needed use warm water and the q-tip but remember to make it damp not dripping.
For the smaller places use a toothpick to loosen and then blow on it and use q-tips as best you can.
This is what I do for the g502 and it works for me.
Good luck mate.
