Eric Siu's Nvidia hardware failed unexpectedly, a reminder that even reliable vendors go down. He recovered using codecs but lost time. Back up your AI setup daily or weekly so you're not starting from scratch when gear fails.
This is from NVIDIA, right? You would expect NVIDIA to have a very reliable device. And I think they're a great company, right? Still the most valuable company in the world. But make sure that when you're setting your skills up, that you have some form of like a daily backup, right? Or maybe even a weekly backup because you don't know when these things go down. And initially I thought I lost everything on this device and I was trying to recover it. But turns out once somehow I was able to use my codecs to get the setup back to basically where it was and I was able to revive it.
