Probably won't run Doom, though

My first thought - will it run Doom?

Adobe Creative Cloud might have finally met its match.
|
|
|
|

In other news: Adobe has let a number of engineers go. They where responsible for optimizing the performance and resource utilization in Adobe Creative Cloud products.
"It was a tough call to make" the CEO of Adobe said. He continues: "In the end we can't have customers thinking we are not using every last bit of hardware they have purchased to run our products. To demonstrate how we appreciate all our staff, we will allocate a part of the kickback we get from NVIDIA to pay an additional week salary as a severance package to the engineers we had to let go."

Now this is just a guess, but I suspect the price is in the "if you have to ask ..." category.

Just wait a month or two and it will already be on its way to the clearance bin.
I have lived with several Zen masters - all of them were cats.
His last invention was an evil Lasagna. It didn't kill anyone, and it actually tasted pretty good.

With my retirement later this year, I've been thinking about the most meaningful projects I've worked on.
Top of my list is the work I did for the 1984 Olympic games held in Los Angeles. I was working on the operating system of the IBM S/38 back then. IBM was a corporate sponsor of the Olympics. My task was to make some modifications to the operating system so we could print a special bar code that we were not making generally available. This was printed (by a dot-matrix printer) onto the employee and athlete badges. The badge had a dark red square where the black bar code was printed -- so even though it was machine readable it was not easy to read with one's eyes.
I felt a lot of responsibility as a 25 year old. Of course the application worked well and there were no security problems. It's a special memory.
Best wishes everyone - Craig

Just noting you can volunteer which I believe includes applying your expertise in computers.

I may have posted about this before, I should check.
Waaayyy... back when I was in college (circa 1990), working on my BSCS, I had a co-op job.
There was a Nice Young Lady there who caught my eye... she kept printing (dot-matrix, fanfold) long lists of numbers. List after list after list... The printers were just outside my office.
Eventually, I went to ask her what she was doing.
First, she had to validate the numbers and correct any errors. Then she had to transcribe them into a report. The reports went to a state agency.
Once the process was explained to me I said, "I can write a program to produce the report, then all you have to do is validate the report" (it was a one-page report) -- it would not only be legible, but it would save paper and printer ribbon at least. If I recall correctly, I also wrote something to detect and report any obvious referential integrity issues in the database -- don't get me started.
And so, after discussing it with my boss, I did just that.
Thereafter, a simple command (this was OpenVMS) would spit a report out of the printer and she would review it and fix any obvious data errors (e.g. columns with values greater than 100%).
The company has since gone out of business.
Why is this project meaningful? Because the Nice Young Lady and I have been married since 1992.
I don't think any of the other projects I have worked on have really had an impact on the world at large.
