@TomV Don't worry. You'll be back to normal anytime now.

@ConcernedOfTunbridgeWells It can't be too much longer, surely? They're good for so many use cases. GPU + graph is a fine combination, for example. And there are several GPU-specific DBMS out there already so the need to keep up will only become stronger. Gotta do something to stay in the Gartner quadrant!

I wonder how they'd price it though? 1000+ GPU cores at current per-core prices works out at ... well, something with BIGINT in the result, I'd guess.

@MichaelGreen Folks are also doing neural-net specific GPU variants that can do MMX-style SIMD arithmetic (i.e. thread level rather than warp level). I'm sure you could do something to parallelise string comparisons or bit twiddling operations with that.

it's finally happening folks. I think I'll be out of here withing a month!

Looks like ya'll had a riveting conversation this morning. lol

@Zane You've got another job?

Expecting an offer from a group on Monday.

Well done.

Are you correctly viewing SE's toolbar in this chat room?

@MichaelGreen "more money than God" comes to mind.

Eff me 45 minutes on the phone just to get the permissions to create a folder for SVN what a joke.

@Zane ouch

It's okay at least they fixed the thing.

"your password will expire in 3 days"..... GOOODDDDDAAAAMMMIIIIITTTTTT! stupid password insecurity.

@MaxVernon LetMaxIn12 by now?

@TomV I'm sure many people on this network do that kind of thing. I generate a random passphrase of 4 words and other characters at random every time, since that seems like the only rational kind of password to have. :-)

It's always CorrectHorseBatteryStapler. ;-)

@MaxVernon sure. I meant the effect such a policy has in general

@TomV yah, that's exactly what pretty much everyone, including my boss, says to do.

so If you did manage to obtain someone's password there is a high likelihood you could guess the correct password even if it has subsequently been changed.

however, being a grumpy bastard is apparently easy!

Are there any AG gurus hanging around?
