Netflix can now serve 100Gbit/s of video (so something like 12,500 individual 4K streams) with an appliance using 100 watts of power. That’s 8 milliwatts for each 4K stream.

Remember that number the next time someone tells you that watching a Netflix show is as bad as driving an SUV or some shit.

dumbing of age 

the comments are having a field day again and I'm here for it, this is actually more unrealistic than the motorcycle stunts

sick 

still sick but it feels like I'm slowly getting better

doctor prescribed me rest and come in if it gets any worse, so I guess I'll be chilling and preparing for Dawntrail

the whole walmart electronic price tag thing is so weird to me like you didn't already have those? every store around here has them

Trivial digital electronics question:

What's the name of a digital IC that has 8 inputs, 8 outputs and a single enable pin, so that depending on the signal on the enable pin, the levels on the outputs are either:
- the same as on the inputs
- all low

I'm sure that such a thing must exist, but I can't find it. And I know that I can use eight and-gates, but I don't want to connect 30 pins when in theory 20 should be enough.

it's wild that no one figured out how to install software on windows without stealing your focus

anyways I guess I'll start working after this "remote management software" updates adobe reader and cisco webex

Hiya! I'm a programmer looking for full-time work in the SF Bay Area (or remote!)
I'm primarily a Python dev, but I've got significant experience in Java, C#, C++/C, Ruby, and JS.

I've focused a lot on Continuous Integration in recent years but I've got experience with in-house tool development, embedded software, back-end server stuff, and UI/Web/HIL test automation.
I've a lot of experience in digitization/archival work.

Thanks! #getFediHired

the upcoming Zelda game looks kinda like the 2D BotW prototype, it wouldn't surprise me at all if it was a direct result of more experimentation with more puzzle-y mechanics

also I kind of have a deadline where I wanna have a working PC (Dawntrail release)

oh ffs, I got a bunch of parts to fix my PC (it had crashing issues and It's probably the board, so I replaced most parts bc I'm not gonna buy another AM4 board) and now the new parts don't POST at all

oh nice, visiting the Oceanian data center will stay active past the Dawntrail launch

new webcams at work and they have this delightful shutter mechanism

part of that is that apple is smart and often auto-converts to normal jpegs when you share photos
