@lemmy.caThanks to this post, I'm going to adopt the title of Butlerian!
I worked in telecom for years, and recently left because my company decided to automate out a bunch of positions by using their shiny new AI. It suggested carrying 300 Amps at 50 volts (DC) several hundred feet with 14 gauge cable. (Electricians, go ahead and laugh.)
I went back to school, learning IT support. Most of my classmates are fresh out of high school, and they're all using Chat GPT like my generation uses Google. But instead of googling the answer and then figuring out how to make it work and testing the results, they just stop.
Chat GPT says to use this config? They use it. Of course it doesn't work.
Over and over, I have classmates asking me why their Copliot generated code isn't giving them the right answer, or why their server process is failing to start.
I fear for the safety of a world where the tech support is provided by people who never learned how the tech runs, never learned to read, test, experiment, fail, and try again...
So yeah, Butlerian. points at my face
I am literally on week 2 of my internship. Step 1: get past the automated screening system. Each job posting will have a list of keywords that had better be on your resume. So, if they say they are looking for someone with database experience, you need to have something like SQL, MariaDB, etc on your resume. My internship? They wanted deskside and remote support, so... "LogMeIn" "TeamViewer" "VNC" "Ticketing" "triage" "prioritization" "VPN"...
Also, my first five million resumes went out without me being on LinkedIn... Crickets. My first five million resumes went out with my name not appearing in my email address. I'm western Canada, but for some reason, if your name is Bob Smith, your email has to be bob.smith@mail.com, or crickets.
Is there a chance that the GPU is overheating? My (admittedly old) GTX970 had a fan that only spins up under load, and I got a wire stuck in one of the fans, and never noticed a problem until I tried VR. The load caused the fan to need to spin up, and it couldn't, so BSoD.
Also, if you have room, a dual boot into Linux would tell you if the issue is windows or if it's hardware.
Honestly? I found it suggested on that other site. Something to do with the kernel modules. All I know is that I had no working GPU, ran that, rebooted, and then everything was gold.
I disagree with this. Law school isn't cheap. Law school doesn't come from nothing. I'm seeing kids in my class who are stacked six to a bed, working full work weeks and trying to squeak by in class, and largely failing. Also, effective politicians need to raise funds to run campaigns. Funds come from rich people. Even if this effective politician somehow manages to afford an expensive law degree, they also need to have the time and opportunity to succeed in school, and then somehow manage the free time to also make connections among the wealthy so they can raise the funds to run a campaign.
Politics has become for the rich, by the rich.
