@rfleury @EricLengyel Are you aware of Home Assistant, Ryan? It's also frankly terrible (in that it feels like wasted potential), but it's at the very least _ostensibly_ quite capable, even though it's slow, unreliable and requires defining everything in YAML 😭

@rfleury Dog no. 2? Elly + ...?

@wookash_podcast Completely disagree with Laurie, but you're describing platform exclusives

[Kurufal @kurufal]

Your post reads like a corporate script designed to justify the transition to subscription-based computing. This post is likely part of an exposure effect campaign to normalize the idea 'Compute as a Service.'

Don't pretend you understand the 'you'll own nothing' meme to make light of what you're trying to say here.

You're wrong.
And you're using a random usage statistic to justify it.

You're framing 'idle time' as an inefficiency, but that fundamentally misses the point of ownership. My hardware doesn't owe anyone a minimum utilization rate; it exists to be available exactly when I need it, not when a data center needs to monetize it.

Up until quite literally 2 months ago I was still using a 1080ti which was purchased on launch.

I don't care that you personally know someone who got rid of their PC because they don't use it. The one-off examples of wage slaves don't concern me.

Your TCO math is a joke because it ignores rent-seeking. You're trading long-term ownership for a fragile, temporary rental service that only exists as long as a company deems it profitable.

@samlambert @hollylawly @haxiom_io @TylerFCloutier The difference is that you led with personal insults rather than with a response in the vein of this reply. I don't remotely have a dog in this fight, but even if you're right, your conduct has been egregious enough to overshadow your arguments.

[hyperbolablabla @hyperbolablabla]

@hollylawly @haxiom_io @samlambert @TylerFCloutier The "competitors tears" thing was a light hearted jab no competitor in particular, not a direct reply to one person insulting tangential work that he and numerous people have been working on for the past few years. It's qualitatively very different.

[hyperbolablabla @hyperbolablabla]

@samlambert @TylerFCloutier Wow you seem like an arsehole

@DanielcHooper This is so satisfying

@jartine Justine are you secretly a Quant?

@JuanIsidro @Jonathan_Blow They literally are moving pictures though

[hyperbolablabla @hyperbolablabla]

@PLT_cheater @rtfeldman What brought you to this opinion? IMO jblow has shown he's a smart guy, his ideas have been copied by many of the new programming languages in the current wave (zig, odin)

@rtfeldman I was one of the feeders-back on that last video, and do feel a bit bad for the harshness and everyone piling on! This interview was fantastic and really struck a great balance. Thanks for everything you do 🙏🏼
