Generally speaking if a company is unwilling to negotiate their contractual agreement with me I take that as a HUGE red flag. If an employer isn't a huge megacorporation and they're unwilling to work on a contract that suits both parties: walk away.

Anybody try to use ConnectX-7/NDR InfiniBand with all inbox drivers? IPoIB doesn't work. I tracked it down to a problem with opensm - you don't actually have to use MLNX-OFED... But I don't know why. 🤔 #hpc

Low key want to get a line laser, then set up in a tree across a park where drone watchers are gathered. When someone points a laser at their bogey, scan them from head to toe and watch mayhem ensue.

Heisenberg, Schroedinger & Ohm are driving down a highway. A cop pulls them over, turns to Heisenberg & says "Do you know how fast you were going?" Heisenberg says "No but I know exactly where I am" "You were going 108 mph!" Says the cop Heisenberg throws up his hands, "Great! Now we're lost!"

In Fast & Furious 6, based on how long the airplane scene is, the runway must be at least... *punches numbers in calculator* 31 miles long.
