Welcome to Programmer Humor!
This is a place where you can post jokes, memes, humor, etc. related to programming!
For sharing awful code theres also Programming Horror.
As a reasonably experienced "data guy," this seems obviously laughable, but the discussion on X is scary. This guy is a savior in the MAGA world.
We can criticize and poke fun all day, but it doesn't matter much if our message isn't challenging the mindset of those with other opinions.
How do we make better use of our time to impact outside opinion?
I cannot believe these people make more than me lol.
They make nothing. They're compensated for destroying things, and considering it's musk, they're likely given relatively little money in return for their time.
Even if the only thing you do all day is sit on the toilet and yell at the Internet, you're already a bigger net positive on society.
“I store my records on vinyl. You’ve probably never heard of them.”
This shit sounds like when your mom tells you that the Facebook printed out her bank statement on the fax machine. I'm not smart enough to even guess how you did something dumb enough to make that happen.
How bad are you at writing queries? How does your hard drive overheat even under 100% load? Do you have it smothered under a blanket? Did you crack it up and expose it to cheeto dust? What does running a query on your, presumably, remote database even have to do with your harddrive in the first place? Are you trying to copy the entire database locally to a laptop? Do you know how to tie your shoes yet, or are you still on the velcro?
Hard drive was made by Tesla
heh
Literally every time someone dismisses Wikipedia, it's because they believe something crazy that Wikipedia told them is wrong.
This sounds like trying to do stuff in Excel? The computer isn't overheating but the amount of memory needed is very high which would make it run poorly. They might interpret that as overheating?
It also makes sense if they are on calling the entire computer "the hard drive" like grandma and the fans kicked on.
I didn't know hard drive overheating was a thing. Should I be worried that my 5 year old hard drive is about to overheat. I mean is this actually a floppy disk or something?
it is a thing, but any competently designed computer should have things in place to prevent this.
unless you're an arrogant dipshit and disable all the hardware safeties on your computer to make it go faster and wear harder.
Good lord.
