Had an interview to be CEO at Nvidia today. I expected more tech questions, literally all they did was show me pictures of Chinese women and ask "How does this make you feel?"

They said, "Do you want to be an ancient king too?"

I've been implementing GSAP in a few sites for extra polish, and it really adds a new dimension IMO.

I used to use this at work for fancy websites aimed at the ultra wealthy, and I finally have a use for this for my own projects.

It's wildly expressive, but takes a bit to get it right, iykyk.

if there's one thing the UK is great at, it's coming up with weird, cursed ways to achieve domestic air and water heating

what the hell do you mean you have to push a button an hour before you take a shower, and how much it costs changes hour-by-hour to track a speculative, artificial marketplace?

Huang’s exit opens an uncertain chapter for #Nvidia, the premier maker of #AI chips, & will have widespread ripple effects. Over three decades, #Huang, 63, built Nvidia into one of the world’s most valuable public companies, controlling an estimated 90% of the market for the advanced chips that are an essential component of AI projects driving the #US #economy — & are at the center of the US–China tussle for dominance in AI.

@christianselig I’ve had updates hop through in < 12 hours, and some take days. I think it’s a lot better than a couple of months ago though where we were hitting multiple weeks.

The company’s 10-member board said in a statement that Colette Kress, #Nvidia’s CFO, would serve as interim chief executive until a permanent successor to #JensenHuang is named. The board said Thursday that it would begin a search for a permanent replacement & would consider internal & external candidates.

reddit got bad because spez (the reddit admin) restricted API access to the platform for third-party apps, such that people would be forced to use the official app or web UI, both of which display advertisement and collect user data (e.g. scroll behavior).

the reason why this happened is because reddit is a for-profit company and tries to extract money out of the userbase, at the expense of the users.

another example of a bad decision that reddit made was to push a lot of ragebait (“Am I The Asshole?”) because company shareholders want to see “engagement numbers” go up, and if somebody writes an angry reply to a post, that’s “engagement”. but it makes you angry at the stupidity of the “Asshole”, so it makes your day worse. that is another example how reddit makes money at the expense of the users.

size (number of monthly active users) is not what made reddit bad. commercialization is.

we should probably get rid of the “don’t make lemmy grow, it will ruin the platform if we grow” idea.

@reallycare My pb was before the start of the pandemic. I don't think I'll ever get close again. I go by "this year PB" and age grade now.
