Not for nothing, it doesn’t sound so successful.

Working with people is a very core skill. You suggest that this came out of the blue - but I would bet that there were a lot of missed signals on the way. Escalating straight to verbal warnings and demotion in role or responsibility means you’re missing something very fundamental in what wasn’t working or was missed.

Should this link somewhere?

How could Intel gatekeep a standard that’s fairly open?

The only thing a little ironic is that delta FAs are the best-paid of any US airline.

Their deal is literally better than all the union deals - and the unions were scrambling to match.

stevehobbes ,

I don’t understand what you mean.

Delta flight attendants are non-union. They’ve also had industry leading pay for… forever. Delta pilots are union and also have industry leading pay.

They should name and shame.

Go tweak your power and fan settings. 100w at idle is way too much unless it’s 15 years old.

Fans, especially small ones are very sneaky energy hogs. Turn them waaay down.

If you have multiple GPUs in your home server you’re probably doing it wrong. But even then, at idle, with no displays connected, the draw will be surprisingly low.

Most systems with some ssd/NVMe, 2-4 DIMMs and maybe a drive or two should idle closer to 50w-60w.

It’s probably more about aggressive default bios speeds. Tweak your c states / bios overclocking / pcie power management / windows power management features. Idle power has gone down on most chips.

The Ryzen 3000 should truly idle closer to 20-30w.

Good, they weren’t doing a great job. Maybe Google is going to move this in house.

They also drastically cut supply.

stevehobbes ,

They cut supply in like September. They were all fighting for market share still, largely driven by Samsung, hence the low prices.

Server shipments were way down because everyone overbought in 2021/2022.

The NAND market has always been an antitrust shit show.

AA first has been a joke for a long time. It was an ever so slightly better seat and they served one extra course - a soup - but was otherwise identical to business class service. You can’t charge thousands more for soup.

First class has been dying for years - and the only airlines that will do it, it’s really a prestige thing more than a profit center.

BA, agree, AF, not a chance. La Premiere is much much nicer than even qsuites. LH is somewhat plane dependent, but the FCT is fun.

No. LLMs have context and know that words have context. This would be the exact opposite of ”AI”. This is analogous to defining a global variable “hot” as 1.9m kelvin, and then blindly using that for hot everywhere the word hot is used.

AI, even current iterations, know that a hot stove will be hotter than hot tea. And they’re both less than the hot that is the surface of the sun.

The whole achievement of LLMs is that they learn all of that context - to guess with certainty of some percentage that when you’re talking about hot while talking about tea that you mean 160-180 degrees or whatever, and when talking about hot oil it might be 350 degrees if you’re frying, or 250 degrees if you’re talking about cars. And if you’re talking about people, hot means attractive.

That’s exactly what LLMs do today. Not 100% perfectly, there are errors and hallucinations and whatever else, but that’s the exception not the norm.

Found the guy who’s never used a bidet.
