  1. Autosprink is probably using GPU calculations for the matrix calculations related to fluid flow.  Which is why they have such high graphics card requirements.

     

    $60 per hour per engineer with burden and overhead

    $1 per minute per engineer

    45 minutes of lost productivity per day

    250 business days a year 

    $45*250= $11,250 dollars lost per engineer per year

    $33,750 lost productivity over 3 years using the computer.

     

    Tell him that he can pay $30,000 to watch you to sit on your butt drinking coffee or pony up the dough to meet the minimum specifications for the software.

    Is it about resources? Why couldn't  we produce processors like today's, a few years ago for example?

    It's economics.

    10 years ago they could have spent all their money working to make the stuff we have today.

    But it would cost 10 times as much so no one could afford it.

    No one would know how to write programs that could make use of ray-tracing, tensor cores, cuda cores, 28 thread CPUs, quad channel memory. So the power would go unused.

    They would go out of business.

    You can use Quadro cards with a "hacked" GeForce drivers and get "normal" performance. So dual boot with different graphics driver is an option for someone sitting on a workstation with Quadro card.

     

    Question is if you can do something similar with V100.

    I use a Quadro P4000 for mixed use (90%+ work / 10% Gaming) and have had no problems gaming with the standard Nvidia drivers installed.

    Solid 60 FPS in GTAV and Doom(2016) with all the settings turned up.

  4. Working in Tech.

    When I finished college, I could have bought the lawn mowing company where I worked.  I could have been super healthy, spend all day outside, and be my own boss.  Instead of that I've spent years in a tiny fabric prison, struggle to not be obese from inactivity, and work for people who are incompetent.

    ** THIS IS NOT A HATE POST - MERELY IN THE INTEREST FOR THE BEST OF LINUS MEDIA GROUP **

     

    James appearance on the show has recently been dominated by his personality, which isn't necessarily a bad thing, but when he can't control his urge to steal the spotlight, it's starting to become a problem.

     

    I'm here to share my concern on James, skewing the brand image of LMG and their youtube channels towards a negative direction.... concerns, not blames.

     

    From the first time I saw james. I had a hard time with him, and tried not to judge. And I would lie if I said he didn't trigger my ego-detector.

     

    What I'm refering to is, as a video host (on LMG) you have a role to fulfill which is; Read the script, stay in character, and dont skew too much off script... and always ALWAYS keep the news in the focus (and not yourself).

     

    The issue at hand, and some video references (or evicence, if you wonna turn this into a crime investigation lol):

     

    - First time I SAW him on WAN show... no wait.. really just pick ANY WAN show which stars James:

    https://youtu.be/GMF9Av4BhLE

     

    And here the latest WAN show: https://youtu.be/rOpYUw2V4B0

     

     

    If this isn't enough for you... I got the meat of the treat here:

     

    Please tell me your thoughts...

     

    Here we see the alpha male reassuring his audience of his dominance: 

     

    And here we see a silent gazelle camly sipping off the lake in serenity, UNTILL ABRUPLTY DISTURBED BY A VICIOUS CARNIVORE (roar.. it's james time):

     

    This time it's Riley time..... deal with it.

     

    My honest suggestion for Linus Media Group is NOT to fire or dismiss him, but to merely give him less screen time (and microphone time in general)... seems like it's getting to his head.

     

    Please be kind to James in the comments. My concerns lies at LMG.

     

    I'm just wondering when he's going to make a video about hacking The Gibson

    Image result for the plague hackers

  6. At my office, we had a server that kept getting over filled and needing more space.  Management complained all the time about how we were using so much data and just kept expanding the system storage.  None of our folders were ever that big and everyone was pointing fingers about who was the data hog.  Turns out "Someone" (Read an unnamed manager) tried to have their PC save a back file, but did it wrong and it made the PC back itself up to the server HDs every single day without ever over writing.  EVERY SINGLE DAY.  There were way more back-up files than there were actual files before anyone figured it out.

    He makes videos about consumer electronics and gaming PCs.  He worked in consumer electronics sales/marketing and has built gaming PCs.  Seems like a good matching of skills and position. 

     

     

    Oh no... I spoke too soon... He's live trying to reassemble the camera he ruined.

    Just wondering what everyone's thoughts are on Apple allegedly blocking Nvidia drivers from working on MacOS Mojave? It's very well discussed online at this point with Nvidia reporting and I summarise in my own words, that Apple isn't allowing Nvidia to write drivers that will allow CUDA to work with MacOS Mojave. Thus, preventing any relevant Nvidia GPU working in MacOS. I've got a MacBook Pro 2018 and a GTX 1080 Ti and whilst I only game on Windows, it would be nice to leverage the GPU on MacOS too so I don't have to always switch to Windows via BootCamp. The fact is that eGPU integration works amazingly when it's "allowed" to work on MacOS vs Windows. I hope that LMG makes a video on this at some point to help bring light to the issue and put pressure on Apple to allow the drivers to work on MacOS, if it's Apple's fault at all. We can't assume Nvidia is the righteous one here, they're just as bad as each other.

    But did you try taking it to the Genius Bar to fix this?
