Emulators are legal. Defending your hobby project in court is infeasible without patrons.

Nintendo has no leg to stand on legally speaking, and there's a precedent waiting to happen.

As for the emulator itself, I don't see any argument that the Yuzu team used "illegal means" (internal SDKs, whatever their equivalent of a DLL is, etc).

A thought for the Ryujinx emulator devs, who are also making an excellent Switch emulator (sometimes more performant than Yuzu). They must be having a really stressful day.
wow. Where I can read about those steel nuts? I wasn't able to google anything on the matter.
I think they'll be training-agnostic (will use whomever's hardware gets it done) but will optimize their silicon and hardware stack for running models locally. This is VERY EARLY days of use-facing AI (besides the Nvidia bubble, which is late-days)
Impossible to say.

Downloading yuzu and watching a YouTube video to get roms going is easier than obtaining a modded switch, that one is certain.
Yes.

Either an absolute legend in the sec pub,

I don't know what plugins OP had in mind, but for me at least, a bunch are usability improvements that make the Emacs environment easier to program. use-package, for example, provides a nice way to programmatically install and configure all the plugins you need. My emacs file config file now is self-bootstrapping - I drop it on a new machine, fire up emacs and everything is there and configured as I like. You could do this before, but it was more work and I had never bothered previously.
Yuzu has amazing compatibility. I'm guessing it's getting too good for Nintendo. Their concerns with TotK are not without merit. I played it on Yuzu (on PC) because it was a much better experience than on the switch. Within a few days of the game being out, there were resolution and fps patches which made the game run much better. That said, I'm not sure how Yuzu can be blamed for TotK piracy. Guessing Nintendo is throwing a hail mary here and hoping they can connect the dots during discovery.

I hope this doesn't spell the end of Yuzu, because I use it to play switch games that I own on my steam deck.
You can claim what ever the hell you want, doesn't mean it will last longer then 5 seconds in court. It's very common people make outlandish claims, these then get dismantled by a judge and jury into usually 1 that sticks. Even though you went in with 50.

That's the whole point of court.
App Clips are so much this: https://xkcd.com/1367/

I’ve seen App Clip in the wild only once, and it was a barely functional stop-gap-app that asked me to download the full app to finish the registration :/

I assume that the proposition of making a second app, Apple-only, which has even more restrictions and technical challenges than regular apps, is just not economical to catch on.

JS is often bloated, but there’s a lot of tooling for diagnosing and fixing the problem. There are libraries that care about size. Minified JS is pretty dense anyway.

Swift and its frameworks can easily be as bloated, but it’s harder to inspect bloat in compiled code. Languages with generics aren’t easier to keep in check than JS. You can easily accidentally multiply your code when it’s monomorphized, or prevent dead code removal when it’s not.
It’s easy to find iOS apps that are 10x larger than a bloated website.

Canoe (their SNES emulator) is definitely their own creation, it's very limited and can mostly only run the games they've released with it.

I think it has some similar bugs to ZSNES, but that's just because they're both crappy low-accuracy emulators.
For F-35 flight test specifically, nothing comes to mind. Perhaps I'm a victim of the forgetting you mention.
I think this would be a big issue for them if they specifically marketed it as "the Zelda fix" or insinuated that the only purpose of that update was to make this leaked game playable. Otherwise, they could just say that updates address the dissimilarities between the Switch hardware and the emulator. How can Nintendo prove ill intent here?
There is a difference between a commercial effort and calling something commercial software, which often (usually?) refers to licensed per use (often per installed system) software. Open source must be freely redistributable, which means it can't have a per use license.

I think the main issue is the name. If a project is made more commercial or proprietary than it was before, please change the name (or additionally use a different name for the commercial/proprietary part, which seems to be common practice even when starting a project as partly open source). A clean break between different maintainers (particularly when a mostly single person effort) is a good reason to change the name too. Naming things is hard and it doesn't necessarily need to be all that different a name just something to reflect the change.

The new apple or the new old apple?
Yep, I could totally see them enabling this only on Pro-level iPhones, for example. This would presumably be because Pro devices could have different chips that are designed to handle these specific tasks, as well as having larger batteries.

I expect there will be a lot of iPhone upgrades this fall, as buyers will finally see a difference between their 1-3 year old device and a new iPhone.
Hence "relatively". Specialized is the more succinct way of describing it though, yes.
The last time I tried to use Yuzu or Ryujinx it was still quite difficult. I had to get out my switch and physical game cartridges and manually dump a bunch of decryption keys and game files. It is absurd that Nintendo is trying to claim these emulators are piracy tools or intended for piracy when they don't seem to do anything to make it easy to play a pirated game copy.

(For fellow Gene Wolfe fans: I was reading up on this topic earlier because of "Suzanne Delage", where I interpret (https://gwern.net/suzanne-delage) as an inversion of _Dracula_ - in "Suzanne Delage", the protagonist & his allies are defeated by Dracula due to a lack of coordination/technology, in contrast to the successful protagonists of _Dracula_.)

How can it be family friendly when they sell Night Trap?

Of course, in 1992, Nintendo said Night Trap would never be on a Nintendo console, so something has changed.

It's a fair point IMO. Especially with something like Spacemacs, which really presents a fairly radical different experience to vanilla. I'm not sure anything is really gained by NOT including their own Emacs binary. I guess Emacs doesn't break external code that often, so it might not be a huge issue, but I can't imagine there is never a version mismatch that leads to unnecessary user confusion.

"Transformation Plan:

Today, the Company announced that it intends to reduce its global workforce by approximately 350 roles to better align its operating model with future strategic priorities and to drive stronger operating leverage. We expect to incur approximately $20 million to $25 million of non-recurring charges, consisting primarily of employee severance, benefits, and related charges for impacted employees, the majority of which will be recognized in the first two quarters of 2024."
That's an interesting argument, but I'm not sure it'll hold water with the judge unless they can't show such arrangements are very common with donation-funded software and was in place well before this leak, e.g. yes, we made money off this leak, but not because we designed the model to profit off people wanting to pirate/cause loss of sales, it's just how this has always worked.

We'll see. I'm not really sure there's anything they could have done better in that case as a positive defense if they had this in mind, though - like, releasing it not behind a timegate paywall could be an argument for actively destroy game sales even more, by that logic, and actively waiting until post-launch to release it could be argued to be around trying to extract more money from people to focus on it more.

A connected PDA was always a thing. Palm/3Com made phones. HP/Compaq made iPaq phones. Sharp made their Zaurus. The were OEM phones you could get branded. The Qt guys had their Trolltech phone.

Everyone wanted to see what phone software developed by an actual computer company who knew software would look like. Everyone and their brother wanted to see what an iPod phone would look like.

The Apple phone was perhaps the most anticipated device in years. What surprised people wasn't that they released one, it was that they went all in on a capacitive touch screen, which was novel tech, and that it didn't have real mobile data or native apps. There was this long song and dance about how apps were to be replaced by web pages but people were still skeptical.
Your statements are vague and incorrect.

First off, there are CTOL airplanes which can deliver replacement engines to aircraft, just not F-35 replacement engines (because of their large blade diameter). USN had previously used C-2 Greyhounds for these sorts of duties, but they have too small a fuselage, and were being decommissioned. There was talk of converting some decommissioned S-3B for COD, exchanging their fuselage for a wider one to accommodate the F135, but this was not pursued. https://archive.ph/20150209193642/http://www.defensenews.com...

Second, lots of helicopters can carry F-35 replacement engines, including the Boeing Sea Knight. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boeing_Vertol_CH-46_Sea_Knight I believe that the USN didn't want to depend on conventional helicopters because of their relatively short range.
Most "things that are unique to your business" are pretty straightforward and boring (the value is in the execution, marketing, and branding). It's all the other stuff that makes it an interesting place to work.

In other words, eventually, your talented engineers are going to leave to work on another company's "unique" things. Why not retain that talent and keep the business knowledge by having them build that other company's "unique" thing in-house?

The company I worked at had thousands of engineers and would build in-house vs. paying for it. Engineers stayed for well over half a decade because you could just volunteer to build something we were paying for (or switch teams to something interesting) instead of quitting.
I don't pick things up nearly as fast now (early 40s) as I was when I was younger (pre-tten, teen, 20s, and 30s). However, I also pick things up in a very different way that in some ways, are more effective than when I was young.

For example, it takes me longer to gain the intuition of something, but on the other hand, when I do, it plugs into a vaster web of knowledge. I am certainly more disciplined in both mind and body compared to when I was younger. I'm capable of clearer visualization and simulations now than before. I've got a lot more math under my belt.

I learned piano as a kid, picked it up pretty fast, and forgot a lot of it. I am not practiced in sight reading any more. On the other hand, when I poked around learning again, it's tapping much deeper into music theory, composition. For example, I learned Petzold's Minute in G Major (formerly attributed to Bach) as a kid and as an adult. I still can't quite get both hands working together as an adult ... but I was cracking up as I kept seeing how beautiful the chords are composed together in a way I never noticed as a kid.
Maybe it’s just me, but whenever I hear a question like “tell me about a time…” - I simply can’t remember. These routine job-related things just don’t stick out in my mind as something to catalog for some future contrived performance and disappear out of my mind together with other uninteresting and unimportant noise, like a name of the clerk at the DMV or what was advertised during the commercial break when I turned on the TV in my hotel room.

I suspect that people who readily jump in with an answer - are the ones you claim to guard against, those who drilled and trained for giving responses to these interviews.

Don't be so sure. From the article:

> Emulator tools aren't inherently illegal, but the way in which Yuzu is being actively used and promoted is what Nintendo appears to be objecting to here.

So it depends on what is actually in the case. At best, Yuzu needs to simply update some of its marketing material. At worst, they need to shut down and open under a new name / LLC, while also updating marketing material.
There is no contradiction to what I wrote.
Smallest rubic's cube state representation (2020
Someone else can tell you about Magit (the gold standard UI for Git), or Org Mode (the best markdown alternative / journal / planner / TODO / PM software, if only more people used it...). I want to take a moment to comment on:

> many new plugins for the base-level things

GP mentions Helm and Ivy. These "completion frameworks" are editor-wide, full-blown rich and ergonomic UI enhancements, each with its own philosophy. Each one is an island though - you have to buy into their philosophy wholesale[0]. At some point, however, the community identified the various paradigms and patterns in those completion UIs/frameworks, and where they map to existing core Emacs ideas, and a new breed of libraries were born - Corfu, Vertico, Embark, and many others, each of which provides a single piece of the equation, and deeply integrates into built-in Emacs APIs whenever possible. As a result, you can now mix and match those libraries to replicate something like Helm or Ivy, that works better, is more flexible, and more friendly to code against.

This is perhaps less interesting for casual users, but it means an important philosophical shift in community, towards more targeted and composable plugins. For casual users it just means more powerful, stable, better cooperating plugins.

Okay, I lied. Let me talk about Org Mode. My favourite little feature, which I miss from literally any other software I'm using (like Microsoft's To Do I've been using lately for ad-hoc personal things[1]), is `org-extend-today-until`. Made by and for people like me, who always find themselves reviewing plans after midnight, it's a variable you can set to make Org Mode extend "today" past midnight. See: http://doc.endlessparentheses.com/Var/org-extend-today-until.... I set mine to 3 (as in 03:00).

Flexibility of Emacs means people just implement random stuff like this in the first place - features not relevant to Minimal Viable User, but very useful for a subset of users.

--

[0] - Though in Emacs land, this just means it's only tad more annoying to extend, modify or repurpose pieces of those frameworks.

[1] - Org Mode is the bestest, but still has so-so mobile support; currently MS To Do is just the least annoying tool for private planning on the go.
