You poll() until it returns Ready.

It's going to be hard for any open source alternative to offer support for close source consoles, since the nature of even seeing that code requires NDAs.

Personally, I'd rather focus on PC first. If I do make some hit game, I can pitch it at publishers who can get resources to help port the game. If it isn't... well, I don't think a switch port would have saved my game to begin with.

Dont send the cc info. Use private key to authenticate yourself. Digitally sign the transaction id and the date so people cant record the info and reuse it.

I guess the issue is that people may lose or forget their keys or people can gain access to the signing device. It is harder to understand than using password for verification so people like my parents do not trust it.

I think Pixel 6 owners are in a good spot. We can wait one more year until production kinks have been ironed out, get a Pixel 8 at a reduced price, and get 6 years of updates out if it. Until next year, Google and other phone makers might be forced by the EU to implement easy to replace batteries.

> Don't you have to be fairly well off to invest the time to write a book?

No. I'm aware of plenty of critically acclaimed writers who are not particularly rich. (Although there are plenty of people who got rich because of the books).

I guess most of them have/had other jobs, like teaching at a university for example. And some — especially people who were university teachers — tend to continue on that job.

> Not to mention a probably strong correlation in higher education in an area that is not all that useful for getting a job

A college degree in things like literature, political science, economics, and general science subjects (physics, chemistry, math, biology etc) tend to be inexpensive here, as compared to a degree in engineering or medical science.

Bad faith interpretation. Clearly there are benefits to having a parent dedicated solely to child rearing. I do not think a daycare is the optimal environment for child rearing. The issue here is not women's rights but the responsibility we have for our children.
Medicare isn't the same type of system as the NHS. My understanding is the NHS is actually fairly rare among healthcare systems, but aside from that it has the bad luck to be run by UK politicians.

> A new model suggests that in 250 million years, all land will collide into a supercontinent that boosts warming and pushes mammals to extinction.

I mean, if in 250 million years we haven’t become multi-planetary, sure. We landed on the moon for the first time just 54 years ago. NASA is planning to send people back in 2 years. If in 3023 we aren’t colonizing Mars or something similar, I think something horribly wrong happened. On a much shorter timescale than 250 million years.
These all seem to be mobile devs.

And I see a lot of Connect 4, Farmville Idle type games on their websites with lots of suspicious marketing and premium features. Homa Games even has a rather blatant Donut County clone.

...I get it, mobile devs gotta develop for the market, and maybe I'm missing some of their gems. But when they say things like:

> ...we’ve invested years in shaping an industry that touches the lives of millions worldwide...

> ...it has inspired us to create new immersive worlds...

It feels a bit disingenuous, like they are trying to come of as struggling indie masterpiece devs. I would feel much more sympathetic if I saw, say, Mobius Digital in there.

Unity does this too, and it bothers me even more.
> So, I turn to them: is there anything that proves its a surveillance-free device? No, they cannot assure that.

Can Google and Apple prove that their stuff is surveillance-free, though?
I'd bet that most workers would benefit from more unionisation (including those who think they're above the need for that sort of thing — think software engineers), and most small businesses would benefit from more cooperation to protect them collectively from the giants.

But organising people is _hard_ and so we tend to give up a lot of control for a little convenience. Unity can pull the rug at any time, and there's not a damn thing you can do about it. However, if 1000s of independent game developers had a share in a similar company whose constitution dictated that it was for the benefit of those independent game developers, and they could vote out directors that allowed it to deviate from that purpose, then this scenario we're seeing today would be a lot less likely.
> Fiduciary responsibility is every board member’s responsibility and is legally binding

Fiduciaries are entrusted by a third party. The third party, for corporate boards, is the shareholders.

Boards aren't obligated to maximize profits; that's a myth. But they do have a fiduciary responsibility to the shareholders. It's their company.
Right, but at least here in Norway the rule[1] is that in kindergartens there should be one adult per three kids under 3 years old, and one adult per 6 kids above three years old. There's also requirements for pedagogical staffing so it works out to be a bit more than that, but not much.

Following such a scheme, on average you free up more workers by sending kids to kindergarten.

Nope, just saying that employees respond to how they expect to be treated.

Also, you avoided most of my main points.
Nintendo is still mostly like that, one-time up front payment for the main game, with infrequent optional expansion packs added for particularly popular games. I played Animal Crossing: New Horizons regularly for about two years of the pandemic, and there were only two possible places to buy anything: the original game purchase for $60, and one optional expansion pack released 18 months later for $25. There were also a bunch of free content updates in between that they didn’t nickel-and-dime you on.

Yes it sounds crazy but think 250 million years down the line
I see it the other way around. Few people say: I don't work (or work less), because work doesn't pay enough. Everyone has to cover their own cost of living. On the other hand, plenty of people would actually work less, if they make enough per hour to cover their costs (or if they had enough saved up/passive income). There is a whole subculture around that, from four hour work week to lean fire, etc.

Google is just YouTube to me now. I am amazed at how their management hasn’t seriously tackled the reputational crisis their company has. That being their reputation for abandoning their products to save Google money at their customers expense.

Google at this point is a PR machine for Microsoft and their commitment to long term support and I don’t even like Microsoft.

Sorry, I am having trouble finding a gentler parsing of "we went through this already, it halved wages and made single income households a luxury." To what does this refer to if not women entering the labour force?

> do not think a daycare is the optimal environment for child rearing

I don't either. But the choice isn't caring parents or daycare. It's the number of parents who feel forced by the cost of childcare into being reluctant parents. Or single parents in economic insecurity, or worse, forced negligence.

Fellow R/C pilot and DJI operator here, and I very much agree. On the surface it may appear to be similar, but R/C flying and drone operation are two completely separate hobbies. One may prepare you a bit for the other, but they are fun for different reasons, and mostly separate skills to develop.

> it's easy to see the differences in quality generation over generation.

I don't think it said otherwise, in fact he acknowledged it

He is railing against the ISP imposing QoS on your network via WiFi. (How that happens is not clear - but the Qualcomm marketing he quotes seems to imply they will do it with WiFi 7.)

QoS which can be thought of the reverse of net neutrality and it's being done inside your home to boot. Handing over QoS inside your home to your ISP does sound scary. What happens next - they sell favoured access to your WiFi speeds to people like Google and Amazon?

Like you said he brings up all sorts of arguments, one being we have so much bandwidth now we don't need it. That one didn't make a lot of sense, given his favoured solution was to let the customers handle their own QoS (somehow).

To be honest it all sounded a bit far fetched to me. But back to your point - it wasn't a rail against WiFi 7.
Pairing problems, occasional dropouts, and the biggest one, delay.
That's not incompatible. They do a lot for security, even if malware still manages to get there. One would assume that the most popular apps get more attention.

Off tangent here but I thought I'd mention that yesterday a replica of a traditional Polynesian ocean-going canoe, the Hokulea, sailed into San Francisco, navigated with non-instrument methods including star observations.

The Hokulea's maiden voyage was in 1975 and since then it has made global voyages to demonstrate and preserve ancient Polynesian wayfinding methods.

Here's a video where a local news channel covered an earlier voyage of the Hokulea (2014) and summarized how the ancient sailors would have used the stars as reference points:

>Respectfully, that's ridiculous. The Silicon Valley has a long tradition of "move fast and break things".

Some companies do...like Tesla, SpaceX, and Netflix. Their iteration rate is amazing.

>No no no, this time, it's just that the Chinese companies are simply a lot better than the Western drone companies. Yes, there are many excuses to make ("it's cheaper for them"), but even without considering the price, the Western drones mostly feel like DJI 10 years ago.

You haven't explained why? Move fast and break things mean to iterate fast, that includes finding way to cut the cost, improve specs, and just make the overall product better.

>The Parrot Anafi has been fairly nice for a few years now, but for some reason Parrot struggles to sell them (I suspect that US companies dismiss them because they are not from the US?). Skydio just announced a new drone that seems reasonable. Both quite a lot more expensive than DJI, so here is your excuse.

Is it or is it not competitive what what DJI is selling on the market? These drones are a innovation smorgasbord in so many different fields: cameras, weight, embedded electronics, avionics, and not to mention their software is good enough to not make people dismiss all the other things and go elsewhere. The fact they can offer all of that at a lower price point is (in my opinion) a sign of things to come in other industries: electric cars, space travel, renewable energy.

Unlike PC and console gaming, mobile gaming's market is practically "Everyone". So there probably are some great mobile games out there, just buried in the charts under what the masses preferred. What's most popular on mobile is going to be a reflection of a very different demographic's interests. Kind of like trying to find the "best" movie from box office charts, you will get a list of the most popular movied, not the best.

> how common is it to encounter this issue?

It's common in regulated professions where entry is gate kept.

To be clear, I'm not convinced we're in a general labor crisis. (Automation should release a lot of supply.) But claiming the concept is mythological is historically inaccurate. (See: raging inflation in mining towns and settlements, which were disconnected from large labour markets.)

> Amazon warehouse workers? Did they increase wages?

Yes [1]. And it's working in that they're managing to hire some people [2]. But productivity per employee is going down, which is directly feeding into increased prices to consumers.

I don't think anyone wants more events like the Super Bowl besides the NFL.

Also not all sports finals are so expensive! For instance the FA Cup Final, one of the major trophies for one of the biggest sports leagues in the world, had tickets last year starting at 45GBP:

They can't ever introduce any revenue sharing because they promised not to do that and would be immensely vulnerable to lawsuits if they ever went back on that promise. This was their attempt to do something that doesn't technically count as revenue sharing.
