Here's a whole reddit thread of people talking about computer trash: reddit.com/r/pcmasterrace/co…

If you have undefined behaviour in C/C the computer can do anything!
It can write to random memory! It can tell you it loves you and then leave for cigarettes when you're 10 years old only to show up dead years later of a meth overdose on the outskirts of Las Vegas! Anything!

This is a good idea actually. $100 dog registration fee that pays for a DNA test and special tags to show your dog is registered
If you’re caught with an unregistered dog or someone finds your dog’s shit: $1000 fine

You're not gonna believe this but, if we're serious about this, you can just put the poo in an evidence baggie and run a DNA test and then match it to the DNA of known offenders

Surely AWS has confirmed this outage, surely many clients were similarly affected. Surely this guy’s not just making shit up to cover for an ironic fuck up, surely.
We experienced an outage at Coinbase last night, which is never acceptable. The root cause was a room overheating in an AWS datacenter when multiple chillers failed. We design our services to be redundant to downtime in any one AWS Availability Zone (AZ), and most of our systems worked this way last night, but not all.
Our centralized exchange did not. Exchanges have unique architectures that optimize for latency and co-location of clients. It is possible to make exchanges resistant to AZ failures, but this can introduce latency delays that are not desirable along with breaking customer co-location. Given this incident, we'll revisit these tradeoffs to ensure we're giving you the best possible venue to trade. At a minimum, the duration of an outage should be able to be reduced considerably when an AZ move is needed.
Thank you to the AWS and Coinbase teams for working through the night to mitigate the issue. We’ll share the detailed technical summary once it's ready.

Apple's higher end unified memory and the base PS5 are already 2-4x higher bandwidth than this
JEDEC is such a lowest common denominator consortium that commodity hardware is obsolete before it's even released

DDR6, the next version of RAM, is planned to start selling in 2028.
Major companies Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron are developing it.
It will launch with base speeds of 8,800 MT/s and can go up to 17,600 MT/s.
This means much higher bandwidth than today’s DDR5 memory, so computers can move data faster and handle tough jobs better.
Early test samples of DDR6 are already being tried out by processor chip companies.

My wife had to use C for some project so I bought the K&R book for her, opened it up, saw this abomination, and sent it back.
Nobody should learn C from it.
The classic strcpy implementation from K&R. Still one of the most quietly beautiful loops in C.

It's important to note that if you work at Jane Street and you're being paid less than $13m then you're just some fucking loser
