@ton.yeung just this epi, it's a bit flimsy

@ton.yeung Who's pissed off? For what reason?
@ton.yeung i see top rep users still hang around, they just participate less in chat
no? or maybe they're just busy with their lives?
bicycles.stackexchange, 7482 questions, that is quite a feat
 
4:42 AM
My deluxe collectors edition of bravely second arrived :D
It has a new book smell :)
 
@ton.yeung I don't you if you've seen my 16 HD setup. But this thing gives me an idea: newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16817998239
@ton.yeung Right now, I have a 16 hard drive setup in two external towers which I use to test IO-intensive code. They can sustain about 1.5 GB/s of bandwidth.
They are connected into the box through a pair of PCIe x8 SATA cards - each with 8.
 
@ton.yeung 64
 
Price aside, I can run 4 of those - each with 4 x m.2. Still 16 drives. But assuming there's no bottleneck in the either the SATA cards or the PCIe, we're talking almost 8 GB/s bandwidth.
@ton.yeung The SATA m.2s go for the same as 2.5 in. SSDs.
It's the same stupid chip.
 
Wow
 
I'm thinking sometime later, I might get one of those with 4 x Samsung 850 EVO 500GB. That's about $650. And it will already have more bandwidth than my entire 16HD setup.
Pretty good.
It lets me code on the road. But compile times are still annoying in the 30+ min. range.
That's not something that can be fixed by throwing money at it since that's already the highest end CPU.
@ton.yeung When I'm on the road, I code on it. Otherwise, I run benchmarks on it since it's the only Skylake box I have.
I plan on adding a 500GB m.2 SATA SSD to it as well as Linux.
If my dad needs a 1TB notebook HD, I'll give him mine and put a 2TB in its place.
That laptop has more ram than my storage workstation. (48GB vs. 32GB)
My storage workstation is the one that I'm toying with the idea with that m.2 SSD thing.
 
5:00 AM
 
So my storage workstation has two of these cards in it: newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16816101792
PCIe 2.0 x8.
PCIe 2.0 x8 is 4 GB/s.
Each SSD maxes out at about 500 MB/s. With 8/card, that's also 4GB/s.
So no bottleneck there.
If there's no bottleneck in the controller either, I think it might really be possible for me to see 8 GB/s IO bandwidth with 16 m.2 SSDs.
 
leo win oscar?
 
@ton.yeung No. I write and run a lot of code that uses a lot of disk-IO.
In the past I stayed away from SSDs because of the write wear. But for dev purposes, I'm not writing to them 24/7 at full load. I maybe do something smallish once a week or so.
So the SSDs aren't gonna die that easily.
It's that stupid Pi program that I still maintain as a hobby.
I regularly run computations of 100+ billion digits of various things as an integration test.
Those runs easily require terabytes of memory which is a tad too much for ram.
I tell everybody who uses my program not to use SSDs since they will die. But I don't necessarily have to follow that rule myself since I'm not hammering them 24/7.
There's also some bragging rights to having 16x SSDs. Especially in a relatively small form factor.
Did I tell you that 2/4 times in the last month I got held at the airport?
That laptop is fucking huge. And they didn't recognize the logo or name.
Since it's not a Mac, a Dell, Toshiba, Lenovo, etc...
They were like, "What the hell is this thing?"
It only became obvious once they opened the lid.
 
5:23 AM
.@awesome_human_ Fixed now. We had an issue with SQL Server and some of the sites didn't come out of read only mode https://twitter.com/GBrayUT/status/704167666190123008
 
?
Why does that matter? You aren't using that laptop at work right?

I'm actually starting a new job in the latter half of March.
Same industry though.
That last one was a bit of a death trap. I can't go into details because of the NDA.
I actually have two offers on the table right now. And I'll be picking one in the next day or so.
Yeah.
I'm not even moving.
Since I live in the heart of downtown which is literally next to everything as far as work goes.
But it's expensive.
My rent in increasing to 2400/month. So I'm moving out after one more year.
I can afford it no problem - along with my computer stuff. But that's not a good use of money.
The last 2 months for me have been endless traveling and interviews. In the end, the best ones were still in Chicago.
yeah
ah
thanks
These are $152 at Microcenter.
I'll wait until after I settle down in the new job and possibly after ACEN before I give that 4 x m.2 thing a shot.

@Quill yeh i get my post from the post office at about 10 in the morning, that means any mail that would be delivered after that would proably be withheld until the next day
 
10:39 AM
Hi there.
 
hi
 
I'm in a hurry.
And, well, concerned. This is related to anime, Sailor Moon, Ranma 1/2 and Sakura Card Captor for instances.
I came here since I know you would know a lot better than I do.
 
Gao
Go on, you've piqued my interest (even though I don't know much about those 3 series).
 
First of all, let me introduce, right now we're running a company, I'm a software entrepreneur, a game company.
And we find suitable topics like tech, animals, mid-age fantasy.
Digimon, Sonic, Mario, Fire Emblem, are some examples.
They do involve fantasy in a world that is about something specific.
 
10:44 AM
Exactly.
 
@VictorLopez Don't mind @Taisho, he is a bot ;)
 
14 year old girls going at 3 am to capture some monster inside a card. How can we teach that, well, how does anime teach about that?
More about romance series that are suitable for kids and teens.
 
@VictorLopez how do you mean "teach"?
 
By "teach" you mean "tell a story"?
 
@Memor-X I mean about how further a, yes, to tell a story.
See, this is the company profile we're running and recently got into the anime/manga.
Duties as parents are to teach our children about caring for themselves.
Is it unwanted pregnancy a topic inside anime?
 
10:52 AM
this is just my opinion on how i would like to see it. 2 different ways.

1) you start off with how normal the girls used to be, a normal everyday life. make this go on for about 1-3 days of the girl's lives, then introduce the event that puts them on the path that has them capture monsters.

2) they start off doing this but introduce it as a matter of fact, that it's totally normal for them, then introduce a another girl who isn't like them who, one way or another, ends up joining them so she is taught
 
@VictorLopez It can be just as movie can relate this kind of topic, but it is not one of the main dynamics of anime, if this is your question
 
@VictorLopez you might find the recent series Monster Strike helpful to this style of thought
 
So it is a pretty specific event inside normal world what would lead the adventure.
I feel like I'm 8 years old again.
 
@VictorLopez Mostly yes, the girls watching the show need to identify to the magical girl. By making a casual girl into a girl with superpower, the audience has the feeling that this could eventually happend to him/her.
 
awww, even vicious alien dogs look cute as puppies
 
11:01 AM
@Quill what is it?
 
@VictorLopez It's about kids and teenagers and people who battle monsters, kind of like pokemon, but it starts off as a phone game and then it becomes real
 
@VictorLopez generally this is not treated as a topic of its own. However you might find anime dealing with life in general, e.g. anime about single moms, or broken families or career woman, as with the case with normal movies
 
@Quill wow, it is more clear now.
I just had a moment of calm.
@Tyhja how? what kinds? are these aimed to different audiences?, they should vary, I believe.
 
@VictorLopez yes, as you might expect they are generally targeted at a more mature audience.
are you specifically looking for "unwanted pregnancies"?
 
11:14 AM
@Tyhja specifically, anime in the kind of shonen.
 
@VictorLopez unwanted pregnancies in shonen?
 
i don't believe there would be one in shounen
There might be anime with the scene
 
@Tyhja the most ruthless teaching I found about life in general I found was Great Teacher Onizuka.
 
Gao
is there unwanted pregnancy in pokemon?
 
@VictorLopez Shounen is aimed, by definition, to male teens. This is not the targeted audience to harsh real-life issues such as unwanted pregnancy. As @Tyhja said, this kind of topic is aimed to mature audiance
 
11:17 AM
@Gao i just see evolution :D
 
i love harsh real life issues
 
@VictorLopez Perhaps you mean seinen?
 
@ToshinouKyouko M
 
Ah, I understand now.
 
@ToshinouKyouko Slice of life is best life :p
2
 
11:18 AM
@Ikaros or best slice
 
Gao
but teens these days watch seinen, don't they?
 
@Tyhja even those anime have little information about those things
 
@Tyhja Nah best slice is cake slice
 
@Ikaros mmmmmmmm
 
11:18 AM
@Gao Still, this is not the targeted audience :)
 
@ToshinouKyouko noms on a tomato
 
@Tyhja Oh, it is Seinen.
 
though if you can sell the concept of unwanted pregnancy to shounen i would hope it does cause a bit of a social change because of it
 
@VictorLopez did you just mean it as a term for mature audience rather than for guys?
or did you want it for guys specifically
 
and if you want pregnancy then the anime will be ero one, probability is very high
 
11:21 AM
 
@mirroroftruth not necessarily
 
@mirroroftruth there are many josei that deal with this issues
most of them are not hentai
 
@Memor-X in the meaning of teaching how to deal with those situations
 
@Tyhja not hentai, ecchi one and i don't about josei that much, there might be
 
@Tyhja josei seems legit to me
 
11:23 AM
@Ikaros yep but seinen... muzurashii ne
 
Gao
now and then, here and there is the only anime i know and recall that explicitly deals with unwanted pregnancy
 
Josei and seinen demography would be nice to look
 
Mhh there is Clannad that deals with difficult pregnancy
 
Gao
oh and that armageddon anime
 
yes but not unwanted
 
Gao
11:25 AM
there could be a male main character of shounen born out of unwanted pregnancy
 
there are other anime about single mother but still the pregnancy is not unwanted
 
the problem is the intent is not defined
 
@Gao most of time dad is dead or on voyage or child is raised to kill the the dad :D
 
We're selling video games and also we're getting into anime, the intent is to introduce fantasy tales, content aimed to a young/shonen audience, and teaching the good to them.
 
Gao
wait, so you want fantasy tale for shounen audience that also teach how to deal with unwanted pregnancy?
 
11:32 AM
yes, circumstances lead us to understand that unwanted pregnancy is something real in different countries, more than something that excludes we want to include that as something in the real life of the characters
for a different context
 
Gao
@mirroroftruth damn, i thought blue exorcist might fit the bill, but the mother and Satan were in love
Or maybe just superficially in love, i dunno
 
@VictorLopez you will have problems with demographic and content rating. it wont match
 
@Tyhja Honey Hunt is Shojo. In the case of. I'm mostly concerned about art expression. We're trying to teach our audience good values and to recall to the fantasy world, not to mix it.
I'm learning about demographics now.
 
@VictorLopez i haven't read this manga, however most shojo dont deal with the issue adequetely. Personally, i feel bad information is worse than no information. The manga's intent is to entertain, thus accurate portrayal is not a concern. Your intent is to educate, so accurate portrayal is important.
if accuracy is important, you might not reach your target audience or run into content rating problems
 
11:44 AM
Yes, do we have.
 
@VictorLopez have what
 
Ratings from everyone to shojo/shonen demographics do not match.
 
@VictorLopez i'm talking about content ratings like PG13, and the target audience not matching
 
@Tyhja what is Sailor Moon's matching audience?
 
@VictorLopez sailor moon is shoujo, meaning for young girls
 
11:53 AM
So our ESRB rating would instantly become Teen.
 
@VictorLopez yes
basically you need to rethink what you are aiming for
 
@ʞɹɐzǝɹ xD
 
@Tyhja Now we do have the key for it.
 
@Gao they are in love, and mother wanted to raise them for the sake of Satan ,Ha ha ha ha *evil laugh*
 
12:04 PM
@VictorLopez should point out that ratings are different in some countries and the different ratings can cause certain media be blocked for sale. best examples i can think of are mainly games where in the US a game could be rated Teen but in Australia would be refused classification because MA15+ was not high enough (before we got our shit ass R Rating)
 
and somewhere they give damn about rating, just rate in and you get it
 
so when you think about ratings you need to also think of the country you are aiming at as ratings don't always trabslate one-yo-one, especially if it's not your own countires rating system
 
Gao
@mirroroftruth perhaps this is as close you get to unwanted pregnancy in shounen
 
You know what? I won't be dealing with that, I'll let the organizations like the ESRB to rate us in general.
I will pause development and social media to address that.
Thank you guys.
I feel more calm now.

I read what the James who was hosting a Dota panel has to say about the circumstances of his termination, and I gotta say Valve should have been more thorough in their requirements and not just say "be your usual self" and then fire him for doing what he was asked to do
now everybody thinks James is a huge dick when he's just catering to a specific audience on which this will have almost no impact, because they know him, and the rest don't
it's actually pretty silly
basically Valve didn't know James' "usual self" well enough, and the filming crew, which shows how poorly they have prepared, and now both are the bad guys and Valve is golden somehow
