Unless my math is wrong it seems like a pretty onerous fee for the case that your monetization starts failing.

Start with 5 million installs, and then your new installs are another 5 million copies, which incurs a worst case ($0.20/install) $1 million fee from Unity. You would still have to have earned $200,000 (worst case you're personal user) in the last 12 months.

So with this, you would gross -$800,000. And this is before app store fees, taxes, payroll, and no accommodation for pirate installs in the new plan.

I don't see the benefit to the developer. Mark Whitten CFO of Unity, says the developers are excited about this. The 6 Plus pages of 99%- comments on the unity forum shows a lot of excitement, a lot of negative excitement from developers.

I don't see the value to many developers. It seems like a huge mistake.
What I meant is that the computer can do three months of considering in less than five minutes real time. That's the benefit of tossing raw processing power at things.
Specifically for moving object like air tags, watches “automatic” movements are already a “solution” that would be easy enough to implement, and probably even provide up to a few joules (!!) per day.

Unless you've worked with Clojure or another immutable, dynamically-typed language with pattern matching, you probably don't have a good mental model for what this would look like. It's a completely different story from a language like Python or JavaScript.

Immutability and pattern-matching get you at least the 80-20 of what a rigid type system does for larger code bases, and your team won't have to be as large when you're using a language like Elixir or Clojure as it would with older, more entrenched languages.
Every person is part of the definition of the average person. Of course, you can take a look at the outliers, but they are rare, by definition.

If you start segmenting the set of people along all possible dimensions in order to find "local outliers", then eventually, everyone will become an outlier in one of the sets.

I think it's reasonable to say that everyone should do as well as they can, and if everyone does that, the average person will have an impact.
Yes, you need a reservoir to store the charge (energy) which in my case was the limiting factor to deployment in high temperature environments as capacitors get very leaky as temperature increases.

Harvesters don’t need their own power supply and ideally the system can come back to life from totally empty (meaning it doesn’t need to be deployed with any charge level)

I was doing my thing back before the packaged harvester management chips were available and I made a PIC based microcontroller system that could monitor the charge level in a capacitor fed from a piezoelectric vibration energy harvester and decide when to wake up and transmit a data reading based on the capacitors charge level.

The trick was getting the PIC’s sleep current draw low enough that the capacitor was charging even at milli g level vibration levels - from memory you can get a PIC’s sleep current well down in the tens of nano amp range.

PICs have a built in voltage reference that is stable (a zener or schotkey diode from memory of 0.6V?) and a way to read what the Vsupply (basically the capacitor) is compared to it. So the PIC would wake up every 30 seconds, check Vsupply to the built in reference and, when high enough fully wake up, take and transmit a reading and go back to sleep.

From memory I got it running at 50mg transmitting every few minutes.

I got a nice journal publication in IEEE for that work.

I have a fun fact about this. This is the coolest brain "hacking" thing ive ever discovered.

Because the eye/brain has a sort of set "refresh rate", we can do ridiculous things with VR. Say your brain and eyes are operating at 90hz. You can run the VR app at 90hz, and then, in between frame renders, shift the view left/right a degree (iirc its less than a degree), during the next render, the human sees the view shifted a bit, and so they subconsciously adjust themselves to realign with where they were.

You can use this trick to make a person believe they are walking straight down a very long hallway, when in fact they end up walking in a large circle. The brain notices the change during the refresh, and goes "hey, im veering a bit better correct myself", and so you turn to fix the shifted view, turning in a circle slowly.

From what i remember in this though, unfortunately not everyone has the same brain/eye refresh rate, so it requires tuning per person, and if its not "perfect", it can lead to motion sickness, as the eye and brain start to tell your body the signals arent matching up. This also causes a limitation in how far you can shift the view, so theres a sort of minimum radius, that varies per person.

On a related note in the sports car community its been interesting to watch Acceleration stop being a mark of a performance car. There is even a lot of chatter around this being the end of the supercar segment since there are family wagons that can now do 2 second 0-60 runs. On top of that the speed is now too much for anyone to reasonably use off a drag strip or circuit.

Now there is a huge emphasis on engagement, dynamics, and a bunch of vague "feelsomeness" as sports cars slowly become like horses.

It's a question of what you value. I find remote work much more productive and I loathe commuting. I value location independence.

Of course this is all given the choice between one or the other. If I couldn't find work and was desperate, I would do what it takes, and so would most people.

On the topic of salary, yes if you offer me a fuck ton of money I would be willing to commute to an office, but the sum that would make it worth it is just not realistic. It's tough to put a price on comfort and time.

Not sure how it's entitled though, there are some employers that are ok with full remote and others that aren't. How is it entitled to not consider potential employers that are demanding the opposite of what I want in a job?
I assume it's because racing, as a sport, is a lot less interesting without the variable of a human with particular skills operating the vehicle. I doubt crowds would be as interested in watching cars race on autopilot, though it'd still be kind of cool, I guess.

Yeah perhaps “simple” isn’t the right way of putting it, the learning curve is way worse.

Maybe “less opinionated” is what I’m getting at; it has smaller, more composable building blocks and while the ORM API surface itself is in some sense more complex, it doesn’t have the kitchen sink of ActiveRecord integration that Django does. It seems to me that when you pick an implementation, you perhaps have a little more boilerplate than Django, and then the slice of the SQLAlchemy API you end up using is smaller and more explicit. So the app’s usage of the ORM ends up being simpler (even though you might have to write a little bit of framework code yourself).

(Yes, I’ve used both, Django more though.)
Arguably they weren't 'business minded' if that was the outcome. I know what you mean, but at the same time understanding what the technical members of the team do and how they get that work done is an essential part of succeeding as a manager.

The only way that your manager could be classed as a success is if you and the others who left were not necessary to the business. As mercenary as that sounds, we are talking pure business outcomes here.
What's frustrating for someone like me, who doesn't know much about economics, is that it's unclear exactly how we're meant to "look at it". It's just data without theory and context -- it's impossible to draw any meaningful conclusions.

Blair's government greatly expanded the use of secondary legislation. It's only one of the reasons I despise Blair and Blairites.

Curious what the limitations were.

Anecdotally I was talking with a COBOL vendor way back in the mid-80s and he had mentioned that their COBOL compiler was itself written in COBOL.

FORTRAN also suffered limitations back in the day, notably lack of dynamic memory, yet folks were able to write sophisticated systems in it as well.
The novelty seems to be the form-factor. It's energy harvesting made simpler for low-power applications. (A small microprocessor for example, LED's, sensors, etc.)
> Godot is reasonably better than Unity, especially with Godot 4 and onward.

I actually made a post explaining how the only terrain plugin available at the time didn't really work well in neither Godot 3, nor Godot 4: https://blog.kronis.dev/articles/terrains-in-godot-not-quite...

Then, a while later, a new plugin came out that's made by the community, which seems to address some of my concerns: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NwJEXOglBrQ (video by Gamefromscratch)

To me, it feels like Godot has a pretty nice future ahead of it. I'll probably stick with Unity for the time being, since I don't actually expect any of my small game projects to ever get big, so the change in pricing doesn't really affect me at the time. But in the future? Maybe I'll go back to Godot, even their C# support is getting much nicer now!

I do believe that they do this, but that their weighting is off, sorry for not being clear. I was mostly responding to the parent comment talking about ratios.

> It's not that hard, compared to many other proof and safety/security endeavours.

Yes, but the code has to understand and model the input into a program representation: the AST. That's the essence of the "parse, don't validate" paradigm. Instead of looking at each piece of a blob of data in isolation to determine if it's a valid value, turn the input into a type-rich representation in the problem domain.

In the case of the FPRSA-R system in question, it does none of that. It's simply a gateway to translate data in format A to data in format B, like an ETL system. It's not looking at the input as a flight plan with waypoints, segments and routes.

Why the programmers chose to do the equivalent of bluescreening on one failed input, I can't say. As others have pointed out, the situation it gave up on isn't so rare: 1 in 15 million will happen. Of course switching to an identical backup system is a bad choice, too. In safety-critical work, there needs to be a different backup, much like the Backup Flight System in the space shuttle or the Abort Guidance System on the Apollo Lunar Module: a completely different set of avionics, programmed independently.

I understand that you are presenting an accounting lens through which to see data.

All data is not accounting data. With Accrual accounting, it can come clearer in the end, especially that it is not clear, in the way you've described. Accrual accounting itself does also have processes that should be followed, but it doesn't speak much about data ownership.

Auditing entries is relative to how accounting systems are setup to be audit-able, or not.

The point about data ownership remains on it's own from the tangents of accounting data.
In the example that you mention, the dataframe underneath is being refreshed by a Timer. The slider and the bird are independent from it. I agree that this isn't very clear if it's the first time you're looking at Streamsync.

Yeah the core problem with that billing logic is that there is no value to the developer.

Unity is assuming that there is "success" due to an installation. That's a inconsistent assertion. And so, there are flaws with this billing approach.
They also recently changed the pricing structure of their cloud build - they charge per minute used now. For whatever reason it takes their service 60 minutes to build our iOS game, which costs us around $4. It was kinda tolerable when we weren't getting charged per minute, but now it's just stupid to pay more money because their builds are slow as hell.

We're kinda busy right now so we're paying the fee, but buying a mac mini for builds is definitely on our TODO list now, and once there's some slack in our schedule that will be done.

We've also wasted weeks of time debugging bugs in their cloud system in the past, some of which were mysteriously fixed and they had no clue why. So I'm not even sure we've saved much time over just having our own in house build server.
Commenters here are overreacting due to misunderstandings:

- the per-install fee doesn't kick in until you've passed BOTH the annual game revenue and install thresholds (i.e. >$200k annual revenue on the game and >200k lifetime unique downloads)

- the fee isn't monthly, it's per unique download (poor wording in Unity's chart)

- you only pay the fee on the number of downloads over the threshold

This new pricing will actually decrease the price of using Unity for many developers. Before, if your company's total annual revenue was >$100k, you had to buy a paid Unity license no matter what. Now those company's can use Unity totally free until their game reaches $200k annual revenue and 200k lifetime downloads.

This licensing scheme is actually very similar to licensing the AVC/H.264 video codec from Via LA (for example, if you want to ship a build of Chromium with MP4 enabled). In their case, licensees self report the number of units they've distributed per year and pay a small fee on the number of units over 100k. If you ship under 100k units, there is no fee.

Huh? Chrome on Linux uses a network namespace to remove all networking from the renderer process, and then uses seccomp to forbid most system calls, and can very easily prevent e.g. opening new sockets with that.

oh sweet summer child; have you not heard of the fallacy fallacy?

snark aside, just because a logical fallacy exists in an argument, it does not mean the argument is untrue. My experience echoes jedburg's - services should maintain their own datastore and provide api access. This allows them to be decoupled and allows the service to alter their datastore as needed. When multiple services leverage the same underlying datastore, things can get overly coupled. This becomes increasingly important as organizations grow because the coupling means more overhead communicating and aligning around changes.

Jedburg is an expert because he has seen this happen in multiple companies. I have too, but I don't have the speaking/consulting breadth of experience that they have. Credentialing and appeals to authority work because we are squishy humans and we can't verify everything so we lean in on others. That does not mean that authorities are always right, but when their experience and advice mirrors other's experience and advice, there is something to it.

And for the record, in public companies (two of them), I have exactly seen this play out: a well defined api that does not allow others to muddle in their datastore leading to _single_ meetings where new functionality is discussed and agreed upon and later implemented. I have also experienced the pain of multiple teams sharing a datastore when the datastore now needs to be altered which led to dozens of meetings across several teams and a rollout plan that was measured in months and quarters due to coordination needs. I can firmly say that the latter is a much harder (and expensive!) problem to solve in each case I've experienced.
