So, apparently, #AI now churns out "plausible" #code like a student who forgot about their assignment until the night before. 😅 And JavaScript? Well, it seems X.com believes disabling it is a mortal sin, second only to forgetting your password. 🔒 Maybe next time they'll explain why Jenga towers should replace servers. 🏗️

96 ГБ видеопамяти в играх: нужно ли столько VRAM геймерам

Знаете, бывают новости, которые читаешь и немного теряешься — не потому что они сложные сами по себе, а потому что сложно поверить в их абсурдность. Именно такой стала публикация в корпоративном блоге Micron под названием «Новое узкое место производительности: как увеличение объема видеопамяти открывает возможности для гейминга и ИИ-ПК нового поколения». Это та самая Micron, которая в декабре прошлого года объявила о прекращении производства памяти под брендом Crucial . Тогда она честно сказала, что хочет сосредоточиться на поставках памяти для ИИ-серверов и «стратегически важных клиентов». Компания ушла с потребительского рынка — и тут же начала объяснять геймерам, почему им нужно больше памяти. Выглядит абсурдно, не так ли?

Well, color me shocked 🙄—a #groundbreaking #revelation that disabling #JavaScript might actually break a #website. Who knew? Meanwhile, x.com recommends a solid strategy: just sprinkle some magical "try again" fairy dust and hope for the best✨.

We do not think Anthropic should be designated as a supply chain risk and we’ve made our position on this clear to the Department of War.

Sam Altman just raised enough money to buy a small country, 💰 but who cares? Meanwhile, x.com can't even figure out how to load a webpage without a JavaScript tantrum. 🙄 Maybe they should invest in some #competence instead? 😂
