Am I the only one who didn't know that the entire internet is literally wired physically with undersea cables?

if you stuck your ethernet cable up your butt at the same time as i stuck my ethernet cable up my butt, it would be like a huge double ended dildo

Nuh-uh! I'm on a much cooler internet than you, grampa.

Like a web? But worldwide?

If I have to think for even a second about memory allocation, it means you wrote a shitty garbage collector.

Garbage collectors aren't magic lmao you still shouldn't unnecessarily thrash them, unless you're writing something so simple that performance is irrelevant. Not to mention that you can still have "memory leaks" in garbage collected languages (okay not technically "leaks" but you can unnecessarily keep large objects around until your heap fills up, like adding shit to a list and never removing it).

I do wonder what she thought we used if not undersea cables. Maybe she thought we used satellites, and before satellites there simply wasn't any instantaneous communication between America and Europe?

EE grads really try to overthink the theory of RF communications from their schooling.

Ive been doing this longer than you've been alive, doing X just works, don't worry about why because it doesn't matter.

Just admit you're too dumb to understand the OSI model.

t. Luser who has never written for the Dreamcast

Jimie I love you but plz understand I would never write a garbage collector or support anyone who did

>nooo! You can't just use light to see at night, you have to read about LEDs and sperg out about wavelengths. Do U even understand what a diode is?!?

you really dont need to know everything to be good at your job, and there's plenty of time to learn the fundamental layers as you get older

blackbox abstraction is the basis of programming and most tech

I think a better comparison would be an architect not understanding the underlying physical principles on an atomic level behind the chemical reaction that happens when you pour cement.

And said architect probably doesn't need it either.

It's like when ASM-spergs rant about how everything should be written in a low-level language, because your average react dev doesn't know how it's all translated into machine code.

From 30 seconds on her xitter, she seems to be studying AI/robotics in open ended problem spaces where there isn't one narrowly defined reward function for it to optimize on.

Imagine a robot where its job is "help out in the kitchen" instead of "put the maximum number of things in boxes in the minimum time"

Who the frick is Al? Wierd Al?

30-year-old

I just tell myself that she must not really be asian

>you heard me. frick Louisiana

It's fricking genius. Put your cables underwater so nobody can steal the copper inside (nogs can't swim)

I'm starting to think our IT guy at work might be an Indian dressing up as a fat white Appalachian man. I've seen that cable work
