90s? I used that solidly into the mid-2000s! Worked across more than Oracle, if I remember correctly, was the DataGrip of it's time.

I use Navicat in the early 2010s for the "cheaper Quest Toad" (a regular developer could afford a few of their tools) and before DataGrip.

2000s? Our EBS consultants still use it

why does it matter?

That's wild. I first typically LinkedIn search someone, and then web search someone, even before I get too deep into the resume (they've already been filtered and ranked for me).

In the past I got a job I had for 8 years through my blog, a startup that eventually sold....

So, it's been pretty good for me, and doesn't actually take that much extra effort on top of the learning you do daily working in tech.

Nope, I don't think you're the minority, once people think of this as a micro itx build. Power supply integrated. That's cool. Will be curious what the actual performance is because hard to compare the custom chipsets with what's out there now.

Yeah, I am seriously considering a small ITX build for my living room for gaming on. But this might be an alternative!

my thoughts, too.

what kind of specs can we build a mini itx these days? I haven't looked into it, but the small form factor is a pretty big premium. I'm not sure I could build a ~ Raydon 7600xt micro itx build for less than $1K usd? (I haven't really looked, though).

For me, I'm looking at this like a nice micro itx build, and I'd probably pay up to a grand for it. (pending final specs and performance reviews, because it's kind of hard to compare it's custom chips on paper.)

Intel i7, 1tb ssd, 32gb ram and 3070 can fit in ITX which would be MUCH better performance than the steam box for games.

Only downside is you have to install Windows of course.

I haven't checked in detail, but I would suppose SteamOS isn't far off from running on general-purpose PCs. Else, I've heard a lot of good things about Bazzite.

Nvidia drivers leave a bit to be desired on Linux imo. I’ve got an all AMD HTPC right now and bazzite is terrific.

SteamOS does run on regular PC’s I believe unless something has changed?

Why do you have to install Windows? You could put bazzite or any other distro of your choosing on this machine and have a similar experience to the official Steam Machine.

I thought bazzite wasn't running against nvidia yet?

It may not, but that doesn't mean you need to install Windows. Any distro that packages Steam and the Nvidia driver will work.

EDIT: It appears to be supported for RTX 20xx and newer GPUs.

Waiting for one in RTP. Miss going to the Cambridge one. So much stuff there you don't know you need!

there's also plenty of other options for warehouse/compute processing of iceberg data storage.

I think this is a pretty big deal, though.

Snowflake does a lot more, though, especially around sharing data across company boundaries.

You are that guy. It was obvious that he built some interactive app packaged in a single html file. There's going to be javascript and stuff in there...doah.

EDIT: I wouldn't have expected external dependencies, though.

The market's are different now. Everyone's 401K plans are automatically investing in them each month (my theory on why equities are so expensive now).

Different as in much worse? It's not that you're wrong but, just to be clear, the problem with investing as the only place to keep up with inflation means that markets will detach from value, and become a giant Ponzi scheme.

There is no such thing as "growth detached from value" lasting forever.

I'm telling people that if AI can make the process easy or go away, maybe it's time to rethink we need the process.
