I feel like you all are misplaying your hands. Find contractors that work for the govt.
They can bill the govt much higher rates because you have a PhD. They don’t have to pay you the extra. You could literally tell them that. Pay me at a junior rate and keep the difference until I prove I’m worth more.
You’d be straight revenue/profit for them. and it gets your foot in the door and you start getting actual experience.
I switched from Nvidia for amd for the same reason: “and is better on Linux”.
In my experience you are just making different tradeoffs. I use pop so your mileage may vary but Nvidia was easy to use and upgrade. It’s not nearly as bad as people let on.
AMD on the other hand isn’t as seamless as people let on. And the open source drivers, while awesome, don’t let you take advantage of the codecs for video streaming or even alot of the AI ML stuff, so you switch to the proprietary drivers and they are slightly buggy.
I wish I kept my 3070ti over the 6900xt.
Unless they figure out a way to let me use av1 or rocm more easily then my next card will be Nvidia again.
Lol you get the joke! 7 points for gryffindor
Nix is the vim of package management but without good documentation. So it’s incredibly powerful and useful once you get into it, but imagine trying to learn vim without any docs or guidance. Vim has a steep learning curve with good documentation, YouTube tutorials, blog posts, and forum guides.
Nix doesn’t really have a wealth of that.
That’s nix package management and nixos in a nutshell.

Well said. I’m nervous and excited to see what this turns in to. Pop is my daily driver and has been for years. I’m excited to see all this progress.
I think that’s actually been proven at this point hasn’t it?
