“We do have supply constraints and our supply constraints do expand past what we are seeing in terms of wafers and silicon, but yes some constraints are in substrates and components.

that is a dead loop of let scalper troll us

if they push out as many graphics cards as possible

tribal hedge Dec 5, 2020, 12:22 AM

#

Would you rather wait for cards to come in stock while AMD builds up there’s?

#

No, because that’s bad business

#

At this point it’s just an arms race

#

Whoever can push out more gpu’s, wins this generation and Nvidia seems to be mostly winning

willow echo Dec 5, 2020, 12:23 AM

well, losing every single customer is a bad business

tribal hedge Dec 5, 2020, 12:23 AM

Yeah

#

Hence why they’re releasing it lmfao

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 12:23 AM

#

it's not like the people spamming f5 will suddenly decide they no longer need a gpu when it actually becomes available

#

it really just depends on which company produces more

tribal hedge Dec 5, 2020, 12:23 AM

I’d rather these “waves of restock” instead of getting 0 releases until they feel like they’re ready

but how to solve the scalper problem

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 12:24 AM

you can't stop people from selling things they own

I mean it sucks that they lower your chances of getting the card

tribal hedge Dec 5, 2020, 12:25 AM

This isn’t the first time scalpers have ever existed

willow echo Dec 5, 2020, 12:25 AM

#

ebay should limit the price from the origial price

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 12:25 AM

#

what would that accomplish

#

ebay would just turn into another retailer where there is never stock

odd grotto Dec 5, 2020, 12:26 AM

#

Ebay sellers just place bids on them.

#

And then you got anti-scalper bots trolling sellers to waste their time.

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 12:28 AM

#

tbh at that point why bother writing a bot

#

if you have enough free time to write a bot and nothing better to do just become a scalper and actually make money

#

placing fake bids is like actual fraud

odd grotto Dec 5, 2020, 12:29 AM

#

🤷🏻‍♂️ Dun ask me, ask the anti-scalpers

sick turtle Dec 5, 2020, 12:29 AM

I would think it more as free game, botting isn't allowed by these retailers so we're kinda in limbo in that matter.

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:09 AM

#

my uni is doing a thing they call hyflex which means you can choose to come to class

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

yeah... I just talked to the right person at the wrong time

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

for analog systems I got a free lab kit

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

I talked to the TA after an exam while my friends were waiting for me

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

usb oscilliscope, breadboard, and a bunch of components

#

so at home labs were actually not bad

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

did you get a bunch of resistors too?

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:10 AM

#

yeah

#

resistors, capacitors, diodes, some op amps

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

I get confused as to what resistance to put

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:11 AM

#

wdym

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:12 AM

#

I did an arudino lab and I connected a motor to like a lever to change the speed

#

my friend did the breadboard for that project cause we were running low in time and I did the programming

#

it worked but the lever didn't do much since I was missing a microcontroller for it

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:14 AM

#

don't u need a transistor or mosfet

#

arduinos can't supply much current

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

it was a small DC motor

#

for an oil skimmer project

#

full throttle already had too much power so the fact I had less was to my advantage

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:15 AM

#

nice

#

our lab was building am radio

#

pretty fun but too much math

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

but it wasn't perfect cause I had no control over the voltage without the transistor or microcontroller

#

I created my own radio for a fun lab

#

it wasn't very good

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:16 AM

#

our instructor sent us test signals to see if our circuit worked

#

one of them was rick roll

#

smh

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:17 AM

#

lol

#

I have a friend from work who is a senior and I'd watch his online class with him sometimes

#

I got in a debate with the class on how PCs are better than consoles

#

he never really talked in class so the prof didn't know it wasn't him

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

in my opinion having a fast pc has so much utility

#

even outside of gaming

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

yeah the prof just said the price wasn't worth it for him

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

it makes sense to invest your money into a pc that does both gaming and productivity well instead of spending $500 that could be spent on pc upgrade

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

but that is a weak argument considering how little sales consoles have

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:18 AM

#

like you need a computer either way

#

may as well get a nice one instead of console

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

I was going to go amd

#

but then I looked it up and amd isn't matured enough for ML

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

lmao

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

its practically useless without the tensor cores

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:19 AM

#

one of my friends got a 5700xt at launch and regrets now that he wants to do ml stuff

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

why didn't he look it up?

#

people talked about it

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

he wasn't doing ai at the time

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

ah

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

probably not a very forward thinking purchase for a computer science major though

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:20 AM

#

yeah

#

just look at productivity charts in general

#

nvidia crushes amd in those

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

even stuff like rtx voice

#

it's cool to have

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

does ML even need a lot of VRAM?

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

and game ready drivers are a real value add when you want to spend your free time gaming

#

well

#

depends on the complexity of your model

#

cutting edge models generally require a lot of vram

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:21 AM

#

well yeah but I doubt I could pull that off

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:22 AM

#

I was running U-net for image segmentation and it filled up my 6gb on the 1070 maxq laptop I was using at the time

#

realistically if you end up doing research you should be given access to aws or some other remote workstation if you need to run intensive models

#

but it's nice to be able to run locally

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

doing models for AI to learn how to play games would be better done locally wouldn't it?

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:23 AM

#

generally you would upload whatever training data you have to the place doing the training

#

like you offload your entire workload, not just the gpu

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:24 AM

#

I'd have to train my model on the machine

#

I'm planning on using Q-learning

#

so the model will have to learn by playing the game

#

idk how intensive that will get

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

8gb is still enough for most things

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:25 AM

#

I do believe the biggest disadvantaged lies in the amount of time it would take for it

#

but I think it would help me understand how ML works a bit more fundamentally

#

I also think it'd be cool to see if I could tweak a program to do speedruns of cuphead in my spare time

abstract seal Dec 5, 2020, 1:27 AM

#

wintry orbit I also think it'd be cool to see if I could tweak a program to do speedruns of c...

heh! I'd sub to that Twitch channel for sure. :p

#

That or Super Meat Boy.

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:28 AM

#

anything that isn't too demanding to run

rose adder Dec 5, 2020, 1:28 AM

#

I feel like training an ai to do that from scratch would be incredibly slow unless you found a way to speed up the game and run many instances at once

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

that would be doable with cuphead since it isn't very demanding to run

#

but my coding skills aren't that high

abstract seal Dec 5, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

Slow or not it's a good project.

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:29 AM

#

only had 2 programming classes

#

neither in python

abstract seal Dec 5, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

Meh. My first coding language was Pascal. From there I was able to learn Perl, Java, C/C++, Python you name it.

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:30 AM

#

I have surpassed my java skills with python in less than a month

#

I just have to do a bit more research than someone who already knows what to do

abstract seal Dec 5, 2020, 1:31 AM

#

Oh well that's no surprise. Java is a pain.

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:31 AM

I liked java

abstract seal Dec 5, 2020, 1:31 AM

Blech. :p

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:31 AM

#

but whenever I had a problem I would run to my professors office hours

abstract seal Dec 5, 2020, 1:31 AM

#

Too much boilerplate to do stuff.

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:31 AM

#

he'd instantly know the issue

You should check out Go.

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:32 AM

otherwise it would be a pain

#

I also had 2 friends who knew java really well

abstract seal Dec 5, 2020, 1:33 AM

#

I'll say this for Java in the 21st century. IntelliJ is light years ahead of any Java IDE I used back in the 90s.

#

It's made it tolerable to use at work.

its the extensions

abstract seal Dec 5, 2020, 1:37 AM

Atom has (had) the same, but once MS bought GitHub they put VSCode over Atom.

wintry orbit Dec 5, 2020, 1:37 AM

the other was due to microsoft suite issues out of my hand
