Seriously it's just bizarre how obtuse HN can be when it comes to piracy.

Nobody is dumping their own games. Very few buy the switch games they emulate.

The following usual claim is "it's Nintendo's own fault for not releasing their games on PC and Android". What kind of asinine argument is that?

Then there's the "emulation isn't illegal", which is probably the only sound argument.

But that isn't the issue here. The issue is the authors are now making over 500k/yr from their emulator, whose only purpose is to pirate games that are still commercially available.
Well, that does seem a lot more sane than what exists today. What is the catch?
I would hope so, yes. But who really knows?

its not necessarily about the privacy layer per se. the workflow i was ideating over is as follows:

1. spin up a production-equivalent database (eg: mysql container instead of prod RDS)

2. point a process/binary (maybe a simple container) to:

-- source db (RDS)

-- sink db (mysql container)

-- transformation function (that may use gen AI, etc) to seed sink db with synthetic/anonymized data [there may be some parallel process to enable testing of this transformation function]

3. profit (use this for dev etc)

Key over here would be speed in step (2) if the entire pipeline were to run end-to-end on-demand.
do you have some examples of using SDV to achieve this? highly possible that there's already something in the docs that I have missed
There are two possibilities- one is what the PC largely did. Nobody really lost their jobs even though one accountant can do the work of 40 that just had calculators. We can just do “more” now.

On the other hand there’s what the washing machine, mechanized farm equipment, etc. did. A slow shift in how many people are required to do a job. There were no absolute jobs lost, just a shift in the economy.

Chances are it’ll be somewhere in between.
But how can I guarantee this app is private?

"Electric cars produce twice as much CO2 as trains."

Perhaps the comparision being made in the submission is not between, e.g., air and rail, but between individual transport, i.e., automobile, and shared transport, i.e., public transportation, e.g., trains.

In the aggregate, does individual transport releases less CO2 than individual transport. Why does shared transport, and in particular, public transport, even exist. Perhaps the idea predates environmental concerns.

Weird. The cheapest T-Mobile non-prepaid plan I see is $50 + taxes and fees, and that is without watch service. The cheapest T-Mobile prepaid I see is $30 + taxes and fees, and that also is without a watch.

I pay $20 for the phone plan, and $10 for the watch add-on. No fees or taxes Feels reasonable to me.

My point exactly. It is such a locked down platform, that I cannot for the life of me understand why people fawn over iphones. They were first to market, but market mover advantage is gone, Apple has not made a good iphone value proposition in years. Especially if you hold it wrong.
I've seen situations where the cost of indexing all the logs (which were otherwise just written to a hierarchical structure in HDFS and queried with mapreduce jobs) in ES would have been highly significant--think like an uncomfortable fraction of total infrastructure spend. So, sure, you can make it scale linearly by adding enough nodes to keep up with write volume but that doesn't mean it's affordable. And then consider what that's actually accomplishing for those dollars. You're optimizing for quick search queries on data which you'll mostly never query. Worth it?

EDIT: as a user, being able to just run mapreduce jobs over logs is a heck of a lot better experience IMO than trying to torture Kibana into giving me the answers I want.

There are (and should be) exemptions to the DMCA.

If only we had a universal way to easily distribute data, without need to heavily license it, instead opting for easily accessible licenses from reputable sources at market prices...

(we do, but torrents got a bad name)

Netflix was a success not because it was a streaming service with a license fee, but because it provided unfettered access to data for a small fee.

Of course, now there are AIs which can or will shortly be able to trivially reproduce most data formats, so that's a separate issue as far as that goes (and that's bad too, if AI spells the complete death of DMCA), but it really didn't need to be this complicated.

Make your brand well recognized, make your products easy to obtain, go after the pirates not the users. I own a switch and TBH a lot of my enthusiasm is pretty chilled by Nintendo's dickery - I'm less likely to purchase their products (and I'll elsewhere with non-Nintendo stuff - and Nintendo's stuff is honestly becoming a lot of locked down crap these days).

>Conversely, this is why Temu and Shien do well - why should I spend $20 at Uniqlo or $40 at GAP on fast fashion when I can spend $10 for the exact same thing on those Apps.

This isn't quite true: Uniqlo only sells their own designs. You may think Uniqlo's and Temu/Shein's stuff is basically the same cheap crap, but the designs really are different. AFAICT, Shein's business is copying other higher-end brand stuff and making it in various different factories, whereas Uniqlo (along with its sister brand, GU) designs its own stuff that's really popular in the Japanese market.
I saw demos of this at either blackhat or defcon, various methods to exfiltrate data by bitbanging pins, running garbage code, or otherwise triggering hardware or peripherals to generate unintended radio signals to be picked up at a distance.

>This means that for all data storage scenarios, they should apply limits to projected monthly usage rather than actual monthly usage.

>No, they should refuse further writes when your database reaches a size that would exceed $10 a month. That's a safe behavior.

I think we have gotten to the point where we've lost the plot here. You previously stated "It's not that hard". We are doing projection forecasting! And the storage layer for these range of services (S3, MySQL, Postgres, MSSQL, Kafka, Keyspaces, DynamoDB, probably 20 more im missing.) must now either call out to some financial projections service and reject writes for billing reasons. On top of that if you have a hard limit you are locked out of dynamic scaling. Need to 100 nodes for an hour? Nope, you now must disable billing limits because Amazon assumes you will use every resource for the entire month. Surely someone wont disable billing limits for an hour and forget to re-enable them, right?

>but it sure beats the status quo

I'm not sure handicapping every service for some barely functional billing limit beats the status quo. It's certainly more expensive for amazon in terms of engineering load but with so many footguns I don't see how it ends up anyway other than Amazon having this feature and still having to do service refunds because billing limits were disabled due to awkward limitations.

>This is just a bad faith argument, everyone from broke college students to medium sized businesses has complained about this at one point or another. Relying on the good will of a megacorporation to forgive a surprise $100k bill is nuts and if you scroll through these comments you'll find some that claim that AWS is no longer forgiving these bills like they used to.

Medium sized businesses have had their bills forgiven for things like cryptomining for example. My point is billing limits don't really work for AWS, alerts is the best you will get because AWS doing destructive actions for you or assuming your usage patterns is worse. It's not an easy feature and to imply they keep the status quo solely because Bezos needs another yacht is reductive of the problem.

one thing i have seen with testcontainers (been a user for a few years) is the ergonomic SDKs that they have
especially in languages like golang, it makes spinning containers up/down, accessing the ports (eg: a mongodb container for some e2e test flow) super trivial - its like a nicety layer on top of vanilla docker (w/ the cost of including their sdk in your test build process)

yes, 100% can be done using docker directly or docker rest api (and def doesn't make sense to migrate if you have already made an investment in an in-house framework that doesn't require much upkeep)

I read somewhere that we outcompeted Neanderthals in part because we (and "we" now includes a bit of Neanderthal DNA) had global trade even back then.

One human tribe lives near good rocks and trade their spearheads with their neighbours. Another tribe, far away, can make good straight sticks. Despite near-zero communication, those two tribes and all the tribes physically in between them can trade and everybody gets a better spear. Apparently we know this happened because the wood and the rocks from ancient human villages are all from far away.

But the Neanderthals only used local materials. There were also far fewer of them, which could also explain the lack of trade.

Love the callout to Dataclips. It was easily my favorite least used feature by Heroku customers.

I think what they were saying is that from a pure "Newton's 3rd law" standpoint, if the plane has an upwards force, then the air has a corresponding downward force, which must go somewhere. Yes, it is spread out and complicated and turbulent, etc, but ultimately must balance out.

If we could somehow "draw a box around" the entire plane+air system, then the plane's upward lift will create a corresponding downward force on the box, one way or another.

So, in the broad sense that you push the earth away from you when you jump, the plane also pushes the earth away from it when it flies (mediated by a bunch of fluid dynamics).

Or, classic example: if a (sealed) truck full of birds is jostled so that they start flying, does the truck weigh less? [1]

Do most people buy a laptop based mainly on appearance? I always thought that most people buy a Windows laptop because that's what they need for work/school (or what they are most familiar with from work/school).
I'm not sure if the GP here was edited to be substantially different, because your response doesn't match what they are saying.

AT&T wasn't desperate, and I'm sure Jobs would have preferred to skip on exclusivity, since that really didn't serve iPhone.

"Desperate for more customers"? Well sure, but I'm sure Verizon was even more desperate for more customers considering they were so close to being number one (AT&T was number one at the time, by a slim margin). After all, Pepsi literally bought restaurants and forced them to serve Pepsi in order to force consumers to drink their sodas from the runner up spot.

I don't have any reference for this, but just on its face it would make sense that if Apple needed to sweeten the pot for a carrier to allow it, exclusivity was a way to do it, and it would have been in Apple's best interest to pick the carrier with the biggest market share at the time, which was AT&T.

EDIT: Others corrected me that at the time the deal was signed in 2005 and during the famous 2007 keynote, the partner was Cingular. Through a series of M&A Cingular became what we know of as AT&T, and by the time the phone launched in July 2007, it was AT&T who held the deal.

Interestingly,

> Cingular chief executive Stan Sigman signed a secretive deal with Apple in 2005 before seeing any designs or prototypes of the phone. Other carriers had been scared off by Apple's reputation for controlling every aspect of its products. But Cingular and AT&T leadership saw the partnership's promise.

In Jobs' keynote he referred to Cingular as the #1 carrier with 58 million subscribers. I think the logic above still makes sense given that.

And this is made somewhat worse by Linux file managers trying to hide any part of the filesystem that’s not your home folder or mounted drives.

I get why it’s done, the directory structure of your average Linux install is an absolute maze that’s sometimes confusing even for the technically inclined, let alone the home users targeted by major distributions. It’s ultimately treating the symptom and not the cause, though, and I think more Linux distributions should give serious thought to modernizations of their filesystem structures (as Gobo has).

It’s tempting to play with this myself. My goals would be to come up with a structure that’s reasonably self-explanatory, guides novices away from the dragons, and allows file managers to hide very little (maybe nothing) without consequence.
It's such a shame the ideas of GoboLinux never caught on in the mainstream Linux community. Linux's filesystem structure is a complete mess.
