They make nothing. They're compensated for destroying things, and considering it's musk, they're likely given relatively little money in return for their time.

Even if the only thing you do all day is sit on the toilet and yell at the Internet, you're already a bigger net positive on society.

This shit sounds like when your mom tells you that the Facebook printed out her bank statement on the fax machine. I'm not smart enough to even guess how you did something dumb enough to make that happen.

How bad are you at writing queries? How does your hard drive overheat even under 100% load? Do you have it smothered under a blanket? Did you crack it up and expose it to cheeto dust? What does running a query on your, presumably, remote database even have to do with your harddrive in the first place? Are you trying to copy the entire database locally to a laptop? Do you know how to tie your shoes yet, or are you still on the velcro?

Literally every time someone dismisses Wikipedia, it's because they believe something crazy that Wikipedia told them is wrong.

This sounds like trying to do stuff in Excel? The computer isn't overheating but the amount of memory needed is very high which would make it run poorly. They might interpret that as overheating?

It also makes sense if they are on calling the entire computer "the hard drive" like grandma and the fans kicked on.

I didn't know hard drive overheating was a thing. Should I be worried that my 5 year old hard drive is about to overheat. I mean is this actually a floppy disk or something?

[–] melpomenesclevage@lemmy.dbzer0.com 13 points 1 day ago

it is a thing, but any competently designed computer should have things in place to prevent this.

unless you're an arrogant dipshit and disable all the hardware safeties on your computer to make it go faster and wear harder.

I used to perform data analysis of robotics firmware logs which would generate several million log lines per hour and that was my second job out of college.

I don't know how you fuck up 60k lines that bad. Is he nesting 150 for loops and loading a copy of the data set in each one while mining crypto??

60k lol.

I regularly work with data in the 16tb range and weirdly my computer is fine. Git gud, doge scrubs.

Skill issue, as the kids like to say.
