I couldn't believe this and looked it up. It's $9 billion. Which is ten digits.

Good god.

Most cameras can plug directly into the iPad.

So how do you move files from cameras to external USB-C drives? By having a dock/splitter that allows to connect both at the same time?

Yeah, a USB-C hub should do it. Also some cameras record directly to USB-C drives.

It's thunderbolt, so 40gbps

Note that not all usb-c iPads are thunderbolt, only the 2(?) most recent iPad Pro models.

Well he's gotta make money somehow.

Just another example of when you can't innovate, litigate

How so? If he's cheating, he was never actually caught in person, so probably pretty innovative, and if he's not cheating, then his career is crumbling around him at 19 and he can't possibly innovate around the #1 player and one of the largest chess organizations conspiring against him. (I think he's cheating for the record)

You may think that cheating without getting caught is some sort of innovation, but I think you're really stretching for that one.

Maybe the phrase should be updated to "If you can't innovate, litigate. Or cheat"

If you were moving yourself to a better place or even the "sport" or whatever you're involved is moved forward because of you getting better, that would be innovation. Trying to win but not putting in the effort of actually getting better but finding loopholes just flat out isn't. Don't care how much you admire the cleverness in the cheat

I don't know, especially on this website. Half of the super innovative high market cap companies everyone laudes on here just have "cheating/ignoring regulations and common decency" as half of the innovation.

Sounds like you're ready for another round of investment! Probably the biggest lesson to be learned from YC or any incubator. (Fake it 'til you make)++. If you can't fake it, lie lie lie until they believe it.

Say what you want, this guy is playing the game of life well, even if hes cheating at chess

College burned me out. The solution was, as another commenter suggested, to drop the baggage and move on. I had a semester left and my career in front of me. Which do you think I picked? Waiting another semester wouldn't have helped me in the slightest.

A couple jobs ago, I worked for a company in the Education disruption space and COVID essentially killed the culture. It was always a big "political activism" company, but the rhetoric got cranked to 11 with COVID and it was incredibly hard to get work done in the same way I used to. The cure here was to give myself more time, I realized here I had been sacrificing a lot for employers who didn't give two shits about me.

I bought an iPad Pro (M1) about a month ago. I'm glad I didn't wait, most of these upgrades are superficial or would not be noticed by me.

Bounty systems are a pretty common way to get insane upload ratios so that you can archive.

>insane upload ratios

not with most RED bounties you can fill. if you only sort by biggest bounties, you get albums that realistically can't be filled, or that would require serious money and effort to find.. rare asia specific releeases and stuff.

you can do specific requests if you have accounts for streaming platforms but nobody makes bounty requests for those

RAM errors are the last thing you'll test before your computer is fixed.

"Unhoused people"

The newspeak is strong with this one. There was never anything wrong with the word homeless.

Have progressives gone too far?

Back in Seattle the lingo was "persons experiencing homelessness". I feel like the more syllables you can get in there, the more PC it gets.

Maybe. Look up George Carlin's soft language skit. It's happening to "homeless" now.

It's meant to imply that private persons shouldn't be allowed to own property, and that a central authority should be responsible for "housing" people.
