What in the fuck is this idiot doing? I've process datasets far larger than that and never once have I run into a hard drive "overheat". I mean what level of incompetence do you have to have to get a hard drive to overheat processing a measley 60K rows of data?

Literally every time someone dismisses Wikipedia, it's because they believe something crazy that Wikipedia told them is wrong.

I checked conservapedia once, and its actually unhinged. If someone tells you to look at that, or reccommends it, they're crazy.

Molly White is very bright, and she makes them feel inadequate so they "have to" attack her. It's truly pathetic.

I used to perform data analysis of robotics firmware logs which would generate several million log lines per hour and that was my second job out of college.

I don't know how you fuck up 60k lines that bad. Is he nesting 150 for loops and loading a copy of the data set in each one while mining crypto??

This sounds like trying to do stuff in Excel? The computer isn't overheating but the amount of memory needed is very high which would make it run poorly. They might interpret that as overheating?

It also makes sense if they are on calling the entire computer "the hard drive" like grandma and the fans kicked on.

I've used local hard drives from like 1992 and I have never ever gotten them to overheat.

Skill issue, as the kids like to say.

60k lol.

I regularly work with data in the 16tb range and weirdly my computer is fine. Git gud, doge scrubs.
