LOL - Intel rekt https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/2016/08/16/correcting-some-mistakes/ More amateur hour stuff as the rest of the world blows past x86 technology. Intel still stuck in the past.

Humans make relationships harder than they need to be. At our very core, we crave only three things (after food, shelter, and good wi-fi service): To feel safe. "I can take risks and not be demoralized or penalized." To feel like we belong. "These... — read more 

PE and manager send emails on Saturdays and Sundays to pretend they are working 24/7. I really don't want to stay in this shi**y company run by HR goons.
