The average monthly salary in Russia is about 60k rubles/around $1,100. How do people afford smartphone and a 4K TV?
>>73292668The supreme soviet collapsed, and what followed was a decade of getting dabbed on by cynical western business interests.
>>73289411It's actually around 40k, russian here. Cost of life is very low compared to euro countries though, and saving/installments are a thing, you know.
>>73293072Can't wait to have my dad tell me I can't even get a fucking student loan for college because his 30K used trailer trash mobile home in the middle of nowhere wasn't enough for the collateral.
>>73293115I always forget americans need to get into debt to have some form of education. I'm starting to think US society is a huge mousetrap.
>>73293129Yeah that must be why millions of people come here to live illegally. Because they just wanted upgrade to a bigger shithole than the one they left behind.
Apple won
>>73293119And most companies are cost-conscious. I'm not talking to you anymore
>>73293142>And most companies are cost-consciousVague, meaningless. What a trite statement to make.
>>73291073So much this, switching to PC wasn’t that hard. For my next phone upgrade I’m not getting iPhone. Apple is losing their core audience. I used to be one of the biggest Apple fagboys as the term goes, powermac performa g3, powermac g4, powermac g5, mac pro towers. Once they started to ignore us, we switched to hackintosh and Linux. Linux has now replaced Mac OS for me. I don’t doubt for a minute Apple is in serious trouble and don’t realize it yet.
>>73293100IT'S NOT A DISCOUNTIT'S A WEB "DISCOUNT"OVER PHONE, ORDERING IN VOLUME, IT WILL STILL BE LOWER. THAT'S HOW IT WORKS
>>73293164You haven't shown that at all.
>Recent advances in quantum computing have resulted in two 53-qubit processors: one from our group in IBM and a device described by Google in a paper published in the journal Nature. In the paper, it is argued that their device reached “quantum supremacy” and that “a state-of-the-art supercomputer would require approximately 10,000 years to perform the equivalent task.” >We argue that an ideal simulation of the same task can be performed on a classical system in 2.5 days and with far greater fidelity. This is in fact a conservative, worst-case estimate, and we expect that with additional refinements the classical cost of the simulation can be further reduced.>the original meaning of the term “quantum supremacy,” as proposed by John Preskill in 2012, was to describe the point where quantum computers can do things that classical computers can’t, this threshold has not been met.>Building quantum systems is a feat of science and engineering and benchmarking them is a formidable challenge. Google’s experiment is an excellent demonstration of the progress in superconducting-based quantum computing, showing state-of-the-art gate fidelities on a 53-qubit device, but it should not be viewed as proof that quantum computers are “supreme” over classical computers.>https://www.ibm.com/blogs/research/2019/10/on-quantum-supremacy/IBM BTFO'S GOOGLE ONCE AGAIN!
>>73292129>Never viable for consumersI wouldn't go that far. There is still the possibility of the technology shrinking much like how classical computers went from room sizes behemoths to fitting in the palm of your hand.I don't think it will happen any time soon, But maybe once the science has matured and things become more optimized we could have personal QCs.
>>73292957What for, though? I've never heard anyone posit a use for this other than cryptanalysis, and even then there are ciphers that aren't vulnerable to it.
>>73292154>>73292786quantum raytracinghttps://vimeo.com/180284417mo qubits mo resolution
>>73290013>Not using quantum safe keysIt's fine though, we will literally never get a quantum computer capable of breaking arbitrary keys. It's beyond our level of intellect. Only the robots can do it.
>>73292980QC is just better at certain things over classical computers. Anything that requires checking a ton of outcomes will benefit from QCs ability for parrellel computing.I should note that there are other designs in the work that also promise parrellel computing that might actually be better than QC. I remember reading something about a biocomputer that could do parrellel computing but I cannot recall the article title.
OOF

get yours /g/?
>>73292520I have only just realised the only reason all of these companies make anything is to collect your data. Their thought process is:1. we need to collection conversation in the home, as we don't have that data yet.2. what device can we come up with that does this while offering some kind of value to the consumer?
>>73292520>paying for music>recieve spying jewish shitfuck microphone in your housethe fuck is wrong with this niggers
>>73292887and not only that, but these companies are not "companies". They are intrinsically tied to the US intelligence agency / government.
>>73292520I'd get one just to burn and waste a tiny bit of their money
I already pay for Spotify cause I like streaming whatever/whenever/wherever, I'll take this free shit and maybe do something with it or give it awayThanks /g/
Does anyone else find that Google search results kinda suck now? When I used Google back in the day, I was almost surprised at how relevant the results were when my queries weren't even phrased well; now I'm frustrated with the results even when I type in really precise queries. I think what's going on is they're prioritizing news articles too much making it nearly impossible to find evergreen content. Thoughts?
>>73293023they care about maximizing profit not maximizing search results. if their PR spiel actually worked on you then you need to really need to take what billion dollar corporations who will sell your privacy upstream for pennies say with a grain of salt
all the censorship aside, i really miss the live search feature. that shit was a thing of beauty.
>>73293023you mean the fact that they have made the most useful search result usually the third so that people will click the first two and generate mote page views? because they've done enough a/b testing to know exactly how much they can get people to jump through revenue generating hoops until they deliver the thing they're searching for?
>>73293084they fully quantified that providing answers maximizes their profits. i havent read their PR, you're just a retard that talks about shit you know nothing about. you're a dumbfuck, just cope.
>>73293138>i havent read their PR>you're a dumbfuck, just cope.so you dont know what you're talking about and you're just regurgitating stale memes instead of posting the quantification

show me the obsolete and discontinued software that triggers your nostalgia

>>73289168I use Ubuntu MATE.
>In JS all numbers are represented as 64 bit floating point numbers>oh, except when you use bitwise operators, then they are cast to 32bit signed twos complement first and are cast back afterwards.Why?
>>73293095It's dumbed down so web developers can program.
>>73293120No it is because it is a high level language, so we can get things done in a reasonable amount of time you retarded "only real programmer" faggot.
>>73293074cr*nge
>>73293136Just use lisp
>>73293136Most serious high level languages have integers and float point numbers, it's doesn't require any extra time to use two types of number instead of one.Unless you're a web dev and the the concept of two number types is beyond you grasp.
I'm having trouble because my usb won't be recognized when I use an adapter 5pin to connect to my phone and when I plug into my laptop it works fine, to transfer files. And now I need to use it as a boot disk with Windows, and it gets recognized on my laptop but it says it can't find any drivers. I don't get it. I didn't even know there were different types until this problem.
>>73292555I feel your pain and frustration anon, but I think you may be out of your league trying to fix this problem yourself. Some times you have to admit that you need to call a plumber when the toilet overflows.
>>73292597yep such is the plight of zoom zooms. imagine not being able to unclog the toilet, how the fuck do they think they could install an os.
OP is this u?
>>73292555Did your laptop disable its USB ports? Go to the bios and see what it says. Also can't you take the SSD (or hardrive) out and put it in another machine. Also doesn't lenovo have this proprietary recovery software that makes a partition on your disk. Try booting into that. If you don't understand what I'm saying then pay someone to fix it for you.
>>73292329Explain exactly what you re trying to plug with what cable to what port and device. You can connect usb 2.0 pendrive without any "adapters" to usb 3 laptops, and your 5 pin adapter might be the reason of problems. USB hubs are no-go too. Also, tldr oversimplified Phones don't work as usb pendrives by default and can't be used to install windows. Try taking out phone's SD card and try with a cheap card reader- these act sort of like pendrives.
fuckin hell

interesting how google always knows what im looking for, as if its reading my mind, fucking lizards man
Imagine not using startpage
>>73292658it's inferring from your searching/purchasing/youtube history, plus the contents of your emails and IMs, plus keywords heard by any microphone you've given it access to. then it considers the histories of other users in your social network, the histories of people you've shared an IP/location with, and the things that people with roughly equivalent histories have bought.

working retail fucking sucks. how the fuck do i become a devops engineer within a reasonable timeframe? help me faggots!!
>>73291337I'm sure there are ways, but it won't be easy. You'll be competing with candidates with more education and experience than you. IDK how people break into the industry without uni. I've heard the hiring rates for developers/engineers from bootcamps are declining.
>>73291074>>73291337>poorfag cash register drones think they'll ever be able to climb the social ladderl m o a
>>73291074Devops is really just a code word for we laid off most the sysadmins so we are making the developers do their jobs too. So really you are just "learn how to code" but getting familiar with automation stuff like ansible or puppet. Get used to building stuff in containers because nobody runs their own data center anymore and every just runs stuff on ec2 instances.So maybe do a bootcamp if you are into that kind of thing.
>>73291074>>73292820Boot camps are a waste of time, I got in without Uni. Just read a lot, code a lot, and apply a lot. You’ll always have to answer why you don’t have a degree but after a few years of experience people care less and ask as a formality more than anything.
>>73293144One more thing OP, learn from every single interview. Everything you don’t know, ask what concerns they have about you and go home and study for the next one.
