You could transmit raw rgba pixels at 1920x1080 and 60 fps in less than 500 mbps.

Yes, these frameworks are fundamentally broken. Even a framework with extensive usage like React doesn’t work for real-time applications. Or at least your only option is to manipulate the DOM directly for the performant real time parts.

And, additionally, raycasting should
just work

Undoubtably the hundreds of artists and producers working on Ghibli are extraordinarily talent. But talent isn’t genius. But I’ve come to realize talent isn’t brilliance.

Maybe for a while. But when you add the maintenance burden to the code, it stays there, forever being felt. Over time, this degrades the product for everyone. And indeed, Windows can be unpleasant to use, not least of all because it feels like glued together legacy systems.

I always find it weird that people lament population decline. Japan still has a lot of people. Sure, that number is going down now, but you can’t look at the trend and extrapolate that number down to zero. And as the population declines, the number of resources per citizen increases. So people may be better off than before. The largest dangers to Japanese society lie in the transition period, where many elderly people will need to be supported by relatively fewer working age people.

And manufacturers have many choices in what they produce. Your answer explains why consumers have responsibility for their actions. You haven’t explained why, in your opinion, manufacturers can benefit from CO2 emissions but have zero responsibility for their choices.

It’s more akin to pumping water up hill at times of excess energy and then generating hydro power during times of peak power. Such a system is essentially a water battery, and the iron system would be an iron battery.
