Both the NES and the SNES have emulators which are cycle-accurate including the weird peripherals and cartridges with strange extension. They are by far the easiest system to emulate properly nowadays.
There is also the issue that most of those 3500 are never going to played for more than 5 minutes and will just be there as a curiosity.

There are the classics still worth playing, and the cult titles that hit some nostalgia button for a significant number of people. Beyond those it's just not worth it for Nintendo to even format a jpeg of the box art.

Personally I prefer a curated list with the scans of the manual and some history behind the game like they provide now. Otherwise you are in decision paralysis looking at 1000s of titles with no clue which is worth your time.

Them trying to ring out more money on top of the base Switch Online subscription for N64 games is my main issue. If they had not done that I would likely have subscribed again. The drip feed is a little too slow also, but I don't have the free time anyway so it's not a deal breaker.

As it stands I'll wait for my Steam Deck and not be able to decide which ROM to play on there ;)
I subscribe (and immediately cancel) to everything.

If I want to watch a show/movie (like Jackass Forever on Paramount+) I'll subscribe and then immediately cancel it. This gives me 1 month of the service. If I want to keep watching something on that service, I'll just resubscribe once it runs out.

Some services like Netflix and Hulu, I know I'll get enough value out of them so I don't usually bother canceling.

I hear friends complain about having to sign up for so many things to watch all the shows they want, but Apple makes this so easy I don't really think much about it. Back in the pre-streaming days most everyone wanted a-la-carte channels and that's exactly what we have now.
I've been saying it for years - the hard part is not "server side" vs "client side", it's making sure the state stays consistent between those 2 buckets.

If you want to remove the hell from your life, you need to be all in on one or the other.

For us, we've been keeping all state server-side using things like Blazor and hand-rolled js-over-websocket UI frameworks. We never have to worry about more than ~10k users, so this works out great for us.

If we were webscale, we'd have to consider client side options.
>Every generation leaves behind huge numbers of individuals who do not evolve their usage of certain words. And every generation struggles with the previous' generation's collection of those people.

Fair enough. But it seems to me that as long as people can make themselves understood and aren't actively engaging in douchebaggery, why should anyone care?

While I encourage and respect others' ability to speak their mind, I'm amazed at how invested some folks (and they are of all stripes, too) are in telling other people what to say, do or think.

We used to call such folks "busybodies"[0].

And there used to be a stock phrase to use when interacting with such people:

Mind your own fucking business.

Which usually didn't work, but made one's position pretty clear.

Wow, I had completely forgotten about this. My login still works! I signed up for the original ProjectiFi when it came out but did not use it much. I am a heavy YNAB user and this type of software is right up my alley. I am going give this a whirl again.
I mean, that brings back to classic communication/cultural problems. Does one risk being rude one time to fix a situation which is perceived as rude every time?

I've always been overly-accomodating in-person, but I've found it useful to try pushing back (as politely as I can!) every so often. It helps more often than not!
It's semantic nitpicking, but I support the OP's characterisation. If they're not using a browser to visit a web page, I wouldn't say they "went to" the page.
I think what GP meant to say is that educated people are more likely to bother to vote at all, which suggests that they might be putting some thinking behind their voting choices and not be totally driven by short-sighted ideological thinking.
yeah, most things are pretty fixable if you're willing to spend some time and buy some tools. You just have to keep an eye out for situations where you need a real pro. Especially if it's some kind of electrical thing.

It may be silly, but it's certainly not imaginary. Have you watched a Netflix show recently?
I think it supports my point. It literally has no meaning. The additional definition basically destroyed any value the word had.
This only works to some scale. Startup from my previous contract reached the point where “using bigger instance” would be losing them money.

On the other hand, self built databases maintained by professionals were ALOT cheaper.

We are talking here about million of dollars bills only for databases per month.

Self hosted solution did cost around 300k per month.

This included precompiled kernel patches, tweaks to postgres engine etc.

Overall the investment of a year of work of dbadmins will probably return itself by ten times if not more.
Most NP-complete problems have really good heuristics that come to within a hair of optimal on most useful real-world inputs, e.g. things like integer partitioning, bin packing, traveling salesman, etc. You need really unusual inputs to give an optimal solver a drastic advantage. Case in point, with real-world TSP the fact that the cities are embedded on a plane means their distances have constraints that don't exist in the general problem.
Netflix pays cash. I believe employees can buy options at a discount, but RSUs are not part of their comp.

If Netflix is like most companies, they’ll start reining in spending. In fact, that’s exactly what was reported a couple weeks ago: https://www.protocol.com/bulletins/netflix-executives-hiring...
That was Mozilla's objection to the Signed Exchange standard: you lose some privacy because the cache server can see the page data in the clear, even if they can't modify it. But IMHO resisting Signed Exchange doesn't help here at all, since you gave up that data to Google when you followed the link (which is not obfuscated). It makes no difference at that point what is shown in the address bar, as the page has already been served. Also, since Signed Exchange means you don't have to trust the cache, it implies that Google's cache could be replaced with a different (but still not fully trusted) server behind the scenes without changing the result.
Brought back great memories, thanks.

How does restaurant being accomplice in deception make being a dipshit right?

So you got a meal and 6 beers and restaurant puts "meal" on receipt but you put your beers as business expense.

You can explain that waiter is OK with it (mostly because he expects you to come back next days or get a nice tip) but it still makes you a dipshit.
I don't like putting people into buckets based on perceived intelligence, but most of the people I grew up with who I'd say weren't the most intelligent, went on to get degrees. I'm sure we've all worked with, and went to school with, people who were not exactly intelligent, either, but still had degrees.
> Can you give an example of where it making a "good" suggestion is helpful?

Sure:

Upon writing, "That guy is a loser," a response from the computer: "You're using using emotionally-loaded and ambiguous language. Consider revising to provide constructive criticism."

Ideally, the feedback a computer would provide would be similar in scope and wisdom that feedback from an experienced human editor would provide.
> Don't smartphones... kind of suck?

Yes, but so do normal computers, just in different ways.

Android and iOS both greatly restrict user freedom, sure. But they're both far easier to use than Linux, and "just work" way more of the time.

Yeah, neither mobile OS can do packages or shared libraries - but at least they can't get stuck in an inconsistent state, like apt.

The toolchains for Android/iOS are absolutely abysmal - but the OSes themselves come with a capability-based security model that is infinitely better than what's available on Linux.

All software is bad.

(although, to the other point of "phone hardware has bad longevity" - yes, that's completely correct)
Yeah, I can imagine if it’s for a legit reason (especially in a hot market like the other poster pointed out), the seller would probably try to work something out. I would feel like a jerk if I took someone’s $10K and then turned around and sold my house the next day.
I agree 100%. Learning how to learn is a top goal of college, and most at least, tend to do a pretty good job at it.

Colleges are far more than just a text book with a certification at the end.

I think the word "actively" is doing a lot of work there.
I didn’t read the study but I would suspect that those who had “elective” surgery are not a perfectly matched sample to those who did not.
When they raised prices a few months ago, I saw it on the news and that reminded me that I was paying for a Netflix subscription I wasn't using. So I cancelled it.

I bet a lot of other people did the same thing.

Does anyone know how those compare to regular Netlify Functions, other than running on the edge nodes? The main difference I’ve found is that they have much stricter CPU time budgets, but it seems to me that the use cases overlap quite a bit.

My experience:

1. teaches strategies to solve complex problems

2. teaches one how to learn

3. teaches foundational material I likely would never have learned on my own (like math)

4. teaches how to discern truth from nonsense

5. teaches understanding of things that give one a lifetime of enjoyment

As for making college publicly paid for, the difference is making sure you aren't wasting your own money vs being paid to avoid getting a job for 4 years.

>I would not look at a college degree as an indicator that someone can overcome adversity. They are incredibly common. Almost everyone applying to certain categories of job will have one.

It might not be a good signal of "can overcome adversity" because everyone has one, but not having a degree could be a good signal for "can't overcome adversity".

> Foreign investors jump into the housing market because the current system ensures that the supply of housing is limited so it is an attractive way to park your wealth.

If they were targeting mainland Chinese investors, it's too late. China already stopped capital flight out of their country two years ago. They even banned crypto, so getting money out of China is both difficult and expensive for both Chinese citizens and even expats. The former is understandable since it's an authoritarian country, but expats? That's a new one unless countries in the Middle East do the same thing.
It doesn’t avoid vendor lock-in. Instead of a cloud provider, it is now Terraform.

In what way? Having read several of the comments here from various angles, I can't imagine what you mean.
I see; I didn't realize you were talking about European countries. Good points, IMHO.

I would add that much of what was destroyed in Europe was necessary to productive, advanced economic activity - factories and their contents, infrastructure, etc etc. The most valuable human capital (looking at it from a purely economic perspective) - young, able, working age adults - were the soldiers and disproportionately killed. And without functioning economies, they produced much less money to invest in rebuilding and growing.

However, the US population is still ~4x the size of any advanced European economy (Germany has ~80 million).
The big thing that makes javascript slow (that the optimizer can’t really fix) is complex data structures.

For example, if you want to implement an editable string, you have to do so using an array of smaller strings and hope the optimizer can figure it out, or slice() and re-join a single “immutable” string. Either way, your javascript code will be slower than the C/rust equivalent because the language is less expressive. Javascript has the same problem with b-trees, skip lists, ropes, gap buffers, AABB trees, and so on. You can implement all of this stuff in javascript - you just end up with much more memory indirection than you want. And for trees with different internal nodes and leaves, your code will give the optimizer indigestion.

In my experience, basically any of these data structures will run about 10-200x slower than their native counterparts. (If both are well optimized). To me this is the big performance advantage wasm has - that we can make high performance data structures.

I’m working on a CRDT in Rust. The fastest JS implementation I know of takes about 1 second to replay an editing trace from a user. In rust I can replay the same trace in 0.01 seconds (100x faster), by using a skip list. In wasm I can do it in about 0.03 seconds.

If there are 9 homes and 10 people, the 9th guy is going to bid everything he has, including government subsidies so he doesn't end up as the 10th guy who gets nothing. Those subsidies only work if there are 10 houses and 9 people because then you can choose whatever house you want and sellers must compete with lower and lower prices.

A proof that no one would understand in not a good proof. The ideal approach to proving theorems, at least according to how Grothendieck did it, is to build a beautiful theory in which the proof becomes elementary.
I believe Disney did this with its films over the 80s and 90s. People built collections of these VHS tapes in big plastic boxes, it was a thing for an "old" film to get a release.
In an effort to continue to gain share in the market, Netflix has increased its content spend, particularly on originals. To pay for it, it’s hiked prices of its service. The company said Tuesday those price changes are helping to bolster revenue, but were partially responsible for a loss of 600,000 subscribers in the U.S. and Canada during the most recent quarter.

Yeah, raise prices, sales go down. It works like that.
I take it you haven't taken a look at backend lately. Vagrant? Or Docker? Composer? Maybe Drush. Will this plugin break? Is it even still actively maintained? Which database?

I think using a word in a way that was appropriate in living memory, and not intended to give offense, should not be policed in the slightest.
Some of it is just misapplied. Agile is a continuous improvement process, not an innovation process. If Apple had shipped an "MVP" smartphone in 2005, they never would have iterated their way to the iPhone we know.

But some of those buzzwords are perfectly appropriate for companies operating at a smaller scale. Apple has the ability to spend a huge amount of time and effort up-front to get the product right before it's ever announced. They're perfectly happy to spend 3 years on a product no one has seen.

Smaller companies [believe they] have to generate value faster, so they push out MVPs with the hope they can find product-market fit and iterate their way to success. For better or worse (often worse), that kind of post-launch iteration is just not in Apple's DNA. Look how little the Apple Watch software has changed in 8 years.

I don't think everyone should spend as long "perfecting" a product as Apple does, but I do think most companies could save a huge amount of time and money by doing more up-front research and design, to make sure they're building the right thing.
Hackers can infect 100 Lenovo models with unremovable malware
I can relate to this. In the past, I've had smart switches and smart light bulbs everywhere, and could also control and measure power usage for many circuits/sockets in the apartment.

Everything was connected to the Home Assistant.

This setup worked 99,9% percent of the time, but occasionally there would be some issues, especially if WiFi or power was down, which would usually mean that devices wouldn't connect to the WiFi, or in some cases ZigBee light bulbs would go into pairing mode (I guess ensuring that I use more expensive Philips Hue bulbs everywhere might solve the latter.)

At some point I just figured out that I want my light switches to work 100% of the time, regardless of the status of network or connected devices (Home Assistant NUC or ZigBee bridges), and that I don't have practical benefits from all the automation and data gathering (Grafana dashboards were nice, but didn't really improve my life in a meaningful way.)

Plenty of people in Hong Kong and Japan live comfortably and happily in apartmetns as small as 300-400 sqft where as in many cities in the west such small apartments are not allowed. That's a building code issue. You can't build cheaper housing because of the code. Similarly in many areas house require garages or parking space and front yards of a certain size by law. Again, housing codes dicate whether you can make something cheaper or not.
People who speak with the thickest appalachin and thickest black english dialects (two pick two ends of the spectrum) can barely communicate with each other and "y'all" sounds perfectly natural from either of them.

Apple didn't even make CODA, they just bought its distribution rights after it won Sundance. Honestly, CODA did nothing for me. Derivative award season bait, felt like I was watching a fancy after school special.
Nothing new here; it is widely known in the HPC world that F1 teams use AMD CPUs with all but one core per chiplet disabled in order to maximize the available memory bandwidth and clock frequency.

F1 CFD still has a major issue with big teams getting sweetheart deals from vendors for these customized chips, while low prestige teams are left buying "off the rack".

As with everything else F1 related, CFD in the sport is somewhat detached from the reality of product design. Rules should change to support either following industry trends more closely (ie cloud adoption), or lead the way with innovation on things like GPU-accelerated CFD which can then flow back out to the wider community.

Fantastic UI. Congrats. It would be really cool to be able to model personal assets such as businesses. For example, I would like to be able to plan when I sell one of my businesses in X amount of years for a price of Y, then perhaps have options on how to spread the proceeds of that sale into different assets like cash, stocks / shares or one off purchases like a house.

One thing I couldn't work out how to do was to add one off purchases once you had already created a plan. Is that possible?
