Very-high-end workstation build

Not really a concern, but thanks. Anyone who could touch this machine could do far, far worse than steal it or break it.

Very-high-end workstation build

We have contract IT... but they are expensive. Letting some random person from Dell touch our PC would be a non-starter, we'd have to yank the drives first. I will however price check them, just to know.

Very-high-end workstation build

This is great, thanks. Yes, drives are unimportant, the data will not live locally, except for a scratch copy potentially. I need to check if some of our licenses will stretch to dual-socket boards... That 8-core looks like it might be a very nice solution.

Very-high-end workstation build

I've been asked to price out a very high-end workstation for work. This machine will be used for data analysis. Our constraint is that we need to be able to invert very, very large matrices. Basically, this involves taking data from memory, doing a small number of floating point ops, and...

Why do you do it everyday?

I drink a protein shake every morning. I hate breakfast, but I've been informed I'm a grumpy asshole if I don't eat something in the morning.

HOLY... McDonalds Big Breakfast w/Hotcakes is 1300 calories?!

Yeah... that is a lot of food on that tray. If you'd forced me to guess, I would have said 1000 cals.

Post what's going on in your avatar if you have an odd one.

Well, you see, when a mommy atom and a daddy atom love each-other very much, daddy fires off a thermal neutron... Actually, that explains the old avatar... Biohazard was the closest stock choice... :hmm: Maybe time for a change.

Do you watch people who are doing installs in your home ?

At work, my boss, and sometimes boss +1 or the customer, will sit there for hours watching me and my team work. Silently, watching and scrutinizing, waiting to bitch at me if anyone makes a tiny mistake. It used to bug me, but you know what? You get used to it. If it's worth doing, it's...
