Those CPUs are looking really good for most workloads these days you'll be back, jim keller cpu designer status: alpha 21164 and 21264 -> amd k7 & k8 -> apple a4 & a5 -> amd zen -> now at intel (project not yet known) (this is not a serious prediction, but it did work predicting the success of zen with kellers return)

I wouldn't put it past Jim to get intel the kind of shot in the arm that got them off netburst for core but that's going to be a 5 year lead-time and Zen2 is looking really good for consumer grade stuff, especially with the re-work of the memory controllers so you have consistent latency and bandwidth from all cores to all addresses

Everything I've heard said it's been sorted out for over a year with one of the agesa profile updates. You can get it running reliably with most any DDR-3000 kit and minimal bullshit and if you do something invalid (odd number for CAS interval) it will override you. No more of that samsung b-die 3200 whatever nonsense

i remember back in the athlon xp days when amd held a two day marketing event, one of the primary items of which being workshops for systems integrators to train them on not cracking the CPU die during assembly. they had a seriously bad reputation for reliability, because the fat fingered fuckwits assembling the systems couldn't quite wrap their heads around the idea of applying even pressure when mounting a heatsink on the exposed die. of course it was a design issue too, because intel had none of those problems after moving to the integrated heat spreader on the late gen socket 370 and socket 478 products

lol i remember on socket 939 when i neglected to twist while pulling the heatsink out, and managed to rip the CPU out of the socket without unlocking the arm. that was a total buttclench moment there. good times

we're struggling to use microsoft's odata libraries at work, encountering problem after problem. found that if you expand too many properties you get a stack overflow, which lead me to this absolutely excellent bug report response from a microsoft employee: https://github.com/OData/WebApi/issues/829 ah yes, you see, the problem is that you were trying to use the api! glad you found the cause of the issue *closed* this poo poo still happens to this day, kills the entire iis process and all current requests. good job using the stack to parse the query string guys.

The entire OData spec is amazingly dumb, and the odata.org website remains impressively incomprehensible.

 microsoft blew up their cloud services worldwide, logins to everything fail intermittently, but more often than not the product dashboard of course shows green, but nothing is actually accessible. someone done hosed up their DNS

Can confirm it was hosed in my region, the services we use seem back now though. Azure seems like a dumpster fire that exists only because of the amount of brand loyalty government departments have to Microsoft. I honestly think that this is being very rapidly eroded though and I suspect there will be lots of "Potential Migration - AWS, GCP" calendar invites coming out. Tertiary to all this but the Microsoft guys I've dealt with in person has had a very transparent sales strategy of "marry this entity to Azure as much as physically possible" to the point where any solution that isn't literally "do the same thing, but in azure" is treated very dismissively.
