Yeah, but what is the possible upside for a bot (or the person who initiated it) from submitting spammy article proposals?

Do they think Steve "might" engage and accept one? If that were to happen, then what?

I've never understood the motivation behind spamming you with those submissions.

This started long before the current AI craze/bubble.

A 50-year mortgage is objectively a bad idea, for so many reasons. Here are just a few:

Higher interest rate, much higher total interest cost, equity grows much more slowly (so people with less than 20% equity are paying PMI for much longer), more chance of being upside down for longer.

If Microsoft maintains their recent maintenance pattern, I would expect to see SQL Server 2022 CU22 be released on Thursday, Nov 13, 2025.

CU22 would also have this GDR update, in addition to any other normal CU fixes or improvements.

Not until 2028 or 2030. Two of them are retiring so they will never get primaried.

That was Miles Davis's wife (at the time) on the cover. She gave up her ballet career at his insistence.

LPs is an acceptable term, that people called the 33 rpm "long-play" records that replaced 78 rpm records.

My real point is that you should at least try to use the historically correct names (for the period) for historical objects rather than just making up something different.

DDR5-6400 might be a little better, depending on what your workload is. But I like G.SKILL memory.

I've been using these:

That is what they had at Micro Center when I was shopping.

Corsair is also good stuff.

Make sure you update to the latest BIOS. The version you will get when you buy it probably won't be the latest version.

It is supposed to support 256GB. 64GB DDR5 DIMMs are very expensive, and it is harder to get four DIMMs to run at EXPO speeds, unless you do some manual tweaking (such as boosting the memory voltage.
