>Switch Lite is not the console people were referring to in that context.

I assume GP was talking more in the 2020 era than right now. That era where a "switch pro was rumored", and then they unveiled the Switch Lite.

Then rumors swirled again, and we got the Switch OLED.

by now we know they completely skipped the idea of a mid generation refresh, so current rumors go straight to a new generation.

>the hardware itself has literally been ready to go since 2022 or before (prominently, there was an enormous amount of stuff in the hacked nvidia data dump and it's all essentially confirmed accurate at this point) and the delay has frankly baffled industry-watchers

plans change, especially in this economy. It may be baffling to western economists, but the software side of Nintendo also isn't afraid to sit on fully finished games if the timing is off. Advanced Wars remake was delayed a year for bad timing (to put it lightly). Xenoblade was finished for a while, and decided to push its release date up to space it out from Splatoon 3.

They read the winds changing, and realized Switch base was still selling well (and even if it wasn't, Nintendo famously has a decent war chest for tough times). So they just sat. They aren't on the same pulse as Sony/Microsoft, so they aren't pressured by the competition or hardcore consumers to upgrade. Japanese companies have a different attitude towards shareholders, so they aren't afraid to push back if they deem the long term solution is to wait. Nintendo truly goes at its own pace, for better and worse.

>But yeah switch is a bad example of “see, rumors are sometimes wrong!”

I think it's the perfect example of "rumors are wrong". Because I'm sure most industry rumors are right... at the time the rumor holder got the info. That info can and often is outdated, simply because situations change so fast in gamedev. So don't take them as gospel.
The better alternative to yaml are json (particularly json with comments), properties files and xml files.

Basically any mainstream configuration syntax.

The really big problem with xml wasn't actually the verbosity of xml itself but the fact that it was popular in a time before rails popularized "convention over configuration"'
Yaogan triplets / gaofen / jilins+ other commercial, PRC has put up 100s of new satellites last couple years with more every week, for near persistent ISR in region, including SAR. Space sensing network in region is densen now, not spotty like 10 years ago. PRC not doubling down on smart munitions without building up required kill chain. Not sure ocean is big for modern processing methods anymore. Sure there's chance for ASAT wars but if fallback is drone ISR, PRC has numeric advantage there as well.

If host countries are staging ground for attacks on PRC of course they're going to get hit, they become legitimate military targets then, hence reluctance to host. Drawing US / compelling them to fight in 1IC where PRC force balance strongest is beneficial, ultimate PRC geostrategic goal is to displace US security architecture in region by making hosting untenable, can only demonstrate that by taking out US hardware based there, plus extra dose of pain for host countries for participating to deter others from hedging with US security once TW Damocles off the table. Big reason region reluctant to host US hardware is because they don't want to be missile sinks in TW scenario. PRC net security posture worse if region thinks hosting US forces after TW cost free, so every reason to make examples out of those who currently do.

Dont know exact cruise missile model, just they have manufacturing infra in place to build stupid amounts of them. Clips of doc showed proper turbo jet components, i.e. they're not building shit tier shaheeds using moped engines. Both of which are non ballistic / has maneuverability to hit east of mountains.
If it doesn't need a database, then how does it manage inventory? For example, what happens if multiple people try to buy the same products but you don't have enough inventory?
I didn't look at the OP or know their history, so I took the question at face value. I don't see the point in questioning if someone wears AirPods as hearing aids, or just pretends to, or wears them for some other reason. As an older person with some hearing loss I look forward to the hearing aid features for my AirPod Pros, but I may also have Judas Priest blasting and just passing myself off as hearing-impaired. In either case that's no one's business.

Re-reading the original question maybe I misunderstood. OP seems to ask if hearing-impaired people will use AirPods to improve their hearing, but then "lie" about that, presumably out of embarrassment. If I wear AirPods to improve my hearing, and then someone asks if that's why I wear them, I can't think of a reason to lie about that. Maybe OP thinks that because modern hearing aids can hide pretty well in the ear, but everyone can see AirPods. I will guess that OP hasn't reached the age when one notices hearing loss. Do people wear contact lenses to hide their deficient vision? Perhaps, but I think convenience explains it well enough.

In any case asking someone if they wear AirPods because they have hearing problems strikes me as rude, not deserving an answer, not something I would lie about.

I understand that in some situations wearing earbuds or headphones, especially noise-canceling models, can put the wearer in a dangerous situation. I live in SE Asia where people wear earbuds and don't pay attention when crossing the street -- a potentially deadly behavior. If I could prevent an injury I would, and it wouldn't matter in the moment if the person wore AirPods to listen to music or as hearing aids.
I live with a fan of Taco Bell.

'good, inexpensive tacos' isn't what they sell. they sell Taco Bell (TM).

I could give this housemate an around-the-globe tour of pan-Latin cuisine and they would come back from their tour hungry for Taco Bell (TM).

I can sort of relate -- sometimes I can be surrounded by some of the best food the world has to offer, but I crave a packet of Top Ramen.

Some things offer something above and beyond what we perceive as quality, I suppose.
I don't quite get an abstraction like this, if in the end both in our minds and through [trans|com]piler it's necessary to know the underlying abstraction in details(?)
That's right, Daedalus! Thanks for reminding me the name. I spent so much time in it - just floating around. It's actually possible to jump over the wall in several places and just endlessly fall down outside of the geometry of the walls. Very meditative.
They are missing the Seattle Lower Queen Anne Taco Bell/KFC combo store that is known to be the most expensive Taco Bell in the nation.

There is no way for police to know if the traffic came through tor, or was initiated by the owner of computer/server. It seems reasonable that the police have the right to investigate. If not, anyone could run a tor node to cover up their own criminal activities. Even if you did have logs suggesting it was tor activity, should we trust someone’s claim that the logs are proof that it was someone else?

It would in fact be negligent if the police did not properly investigate the server/computer/house of the device.
I mean, that's how academia works. You find your niche and then publish a bunch of articles around it. Much harder to publish on a bunch of unrelated topics.
This seems to be missing the Taco Bell in the Queen Anne neighborhood of Seattle. I've seen posts saying it's the most expensive Taco Bell in the country. Maybe it's excluded because it includes a KFC?

Edit: That Taco Bell doesn't allow in app ordering.
To be fair, most games showcased were first party. And I believe they each used some proprietary engine.

FF7 and Hogwarts do both use Unreal, yes.
Not entirely convinced they do, but I unsubscribed already after the price hike and different divisions of tiers.
So why compare it against an artificially hobbled alternative and say "that's the awesome power of Rust!" when it does a bit better. Compare it against an alternative that is not hobbled with extrinsic issues.
I opened my microwave and cut the piezo buzzer out with wire cutters.

Ah, I should have looked through the comments before posting my own comment to similar effect. The mercer street taco bell in lower Queen Anne (aka uptown). I pass by it on the D line whenever I take my kid downtown, but we've never been there before (with Dick's a few blocks away I wonder how they survive).

There are tons of rechargeable standardized batteries I have cr2032 coin batteries, the 18650 (iirc).

Older MacBooks are Intel, and newer MacBooks claim to have an emulation layer faster than native x86. If nothing else, it's the machine the author had, and it's some data point.
I doubt the decisions on the product came down along that logic.

Surely they could make more money by selling it in some form or another. If the economics actually gave them a storage cost advantage over AWS/GCP, then profitability must be possible.

In reality it's probably incredibly expensive, and the ROI could not be obtained without even further investment to drive the costs down.
Is it just me or is the author just arguing for fixup commits and squashing them, something GitHub and Stash/Bitbucket handle just fine? I don't see how the idea of "publish a new version of the three commits" is new with or exclusive to Gerritt.

Considering that Oxide's CTO is a longtime prominent Solaris guy, it's not shocking. I wouldn't surprised if that's the whole reason they use ilumos.
Minimally invasive is the biggest issue. It’s gonna involve removing a portion of your skull for the forseeable future, and even if it doesn’t it’ll be brain surgery. I think ai-driven surgery-free bci would be more consumer viable, but it’s not clear whether such bci can be done effectively with electrodes far as im aware. I think it’ll be a medical product and an extreme niche of high-performance gaming or something, if anything non-medical exists at all, for a long time.

I've never worked in a company where the commit log message wasn't just a link/reference to something in a bug tracker.
I feel like a 'what this block of code does' comment is different from 'what is this change, and why did I make it' commit message.
Do you have a source for this "most pedestrian deaths are at night" claim?
> Not only languages change, but many other things like date formatting, mathematical formatting (using commas rather than dots breaks few things around) and currencies too!

The most egregious instance of this is Google search with the news articles at the top. When I’m in Thailand, even if Google correctly figures out that I want English, it displays the news articles with the year in the Thai calendar! How many English speakers know that the current year in the Thai calendar is B.E. 2567‽ This is the correct configuration for approximately zero people in the world!

Ah geez, we have a five year old who has a physical disability so ate via feeding tube for a long time, and when she finally started on actual foods had the McDonald’s chicken nuggets phase. We bought an air fryer and she prefers those nuggets now thank goodness, and has been branching out to other foods.

And since we were getting her McDonald’s, we often ended up getting it, especially during Covid, and gained weight, and it was a vicious cycle.

For a hash of N hex digit. The probably to have a single e and the rest decimal is N*10^(N-1)/16^N

With 10 hex digit like on the blog, that'd be 0.9% so about once every 100 builds

With full 40 digit: 2.7e-8 so about once every 100M builds

Assuming my math is correct.

I gave an example of Russian-speaking Ukrainians. Why are you characterising this as “hurting some linguists' and nationalists' feelings”? It’s not nationalism or pedantry to be offended at being forced to identify with the flag of the country that is currently murdering your friends and family.
Probably because of the bad example set by XP Home (which deliberately crippled a lot of NT's advanced security features) having insecure defaults, and most people not bothering and just running as admin all the time.

If you want to know the burrito price, you open the app/website and look at the burrito price... you don't go to a "Taconomics" website comparing taco prices across a continent. As it stands, there are a number of uncontrolled variables that mean this is not an effective analysis of "How economical is your local Taco Bell?"
I feel like Hawthorne's law is ruining this solution. Last of Us 2 and God of War are about as linear as you can get away with and those games aren't able to be cranked out in 2-3 years, even last generation. I have various solutions in mind, but nothing that would be well received

I think the practical consumer solution is to simply stop hyping around these AAA games and invest more in studios that do in fact make smaller scale games. They won't sell 10 million copies, but they also need much less to succeed. Your $5 is proportionately way more valuable to an indie than $70 is to Demons Souls.
I mean ‘could do’ is subjective. The ROI that apple receives on R&D is substantial, so on that basis, include a portable projector in phones such that I can replace my tv with my phone - not being able to use my phone while watching tv wouldn’t be nice, so add anti-shake gyroscopes such that as long as my phone is pointing in vaguely the correct direction, the projection stays stable.

Possible with current tech? Hell no. But within the realms of reality for handhelds to do this in the next 15 years? I think so. Probably less valuable over health and other potential device functions, I don’t think about these things and so I wouldn’t know.

Thus, we are not at a point where portable computers should be considered ‘mature’ from an innovation standpoint, even if current innovation is slow.
I think this post overhypes the issue. So many writes we do just aren’t that important (e.g. logs, cli config, blah), Close fails rarely, and it’s pretty standard for casually developed application software to misbehave once the disk is full or breaking.

This is a classic safety / performance trade off that was properly selected in favor of performance.

The defer Close() is still quite useful as a way to avoid fd leaks.
Yes, I inherited a Lambda code-base too, and it is an absolute knot - Lambdas sending requests to other Lambdas, Lambdas sending messages and other Lambdas reading the messages, Lambdas reading and disregarding messages due to poorly thought-out queues etc.

The bug of which we speak is in that your app is crashing. Exhausting open file handles is expected behaviour! Expected behaviour should not lead to a crash. Crashing is only for exceptional behaviour.

The filesystem hanging is unlikely to be a bug. The filesystems you'd realistically use in conjunction with Kubernetes are pretty heavily tested. More likely it is supposed to hang under whatever conditions has lead that to happen.

And, sure, maybe you'll eventually want to determine why the filesystem has moved into that failure state, but most pressing is that your app is crashing. All that work you put into gracefully handling the failing situation going to waste.

Is the Flipper Zero still legit? I know it’s only quasi legal in some places. I see a lot of ads for it to the point where I kind of suspect it’s some sort of FBI entrapment program. Maybe I’m just being paranoid.
You are talking into a void following this line of reasoning. There is no logical consistency in the context of a state and all the myriad of terms and concepts in its wake. That's by design and everyone that's brought up under it from a young age is taught to embrace that, as a feature. Your words are foreign invaders and every core of these smart people's beings will fight you with their ridiculously smart and well trained antibodies.

Not trying to single out the person you're responding to, but I've seen this play out many times and engaged in it previously to no effect.
Tape drives aren't economical. If you're a big company, sure, they make sense, but for individuals and small companies, they really don't'. Hard drives are absolutely the only realistic and affordable way to back up data. They're not bulletproof though, so you need multiple hard drives, and you need a backup strategy that rotates them, so even if one fails, you haven't lost too much.

This is nonsense. The IPC in and out of the codec process cost is invisible, relative to the cost of encoding/decoding video.
The problem with all of this is that it's all sneaky schemes.

You probably have something in mind for how a government is supposed to spend tax revenues. Assistance for the poor or something like that. But as a sovereign state they get to decide for themselves.

Except that as soon as you admit this there is no point in having any kind of minimum rate etc., because there are a thousand ways for the state to return the money to corporations if they intend to. Subsidize energy costs so they have the lowest electricity prices and tech companies build data centers there. Provide something like the earned income tax credit but with no phase out, subsidizing employers who hire workers there. Just offer generous tax credits and deductions in general, leaving the nominal rate high while lowering the effective rate.

There is no real way to prevent this kind of thing. Is a country that offers public healthcare subsidizing employers who then don't have to pay for employee health insurance? What if you create a 100% tax credit for constructing non-fossil power plants up to the amount of the buyer's total taxes? Apple would commission $13B in solar farms and nuclear reactors, take the credit and then turn around and sell them to get all the cash back. Can you even say that would be a bad policy? It might have a desirable result. But it would also zero out their taxes.

>I’m really not understanding the appeal of the consoles anymore beyond the convenience of not needing to do assembly...and isn’t even really beating it on price all that well.

It's a bit of the opposite direction for me. Crypto and now AI ruined the idea of a gaming PC being cheaper than a console. 3080's by themselves (which is what a $500 PS5 uses) can still go for $800 by itself on the used market. The gen 9 consoles are the cheapest way to buy 2020's tech right now.
