They can always reimplement it later.

Focus on core right now, you can change js engines further down the line if need be.

Because they know that in the end there will only be a few winners, and if you are one of them, you will settle even if its for billions, and if not it doesn't matter because you will be bankrupt anyway.

And besides various companies have been caught ripping torrents and other copyright data, what makes you so sure that same companies wont rip your data too.

Thats on top of 50 to a 100 years of companies straight up breaking the law to get ahead. Various ubers and food delivery app being the latest example.

I dont trust a lot of companies that i have to work with in some form or other anyway, with Oracle being on top of my personal shit list, followed by Salesforce and Broadcom.

And I dont think most of the AI companies are more ethical than any of the above.

They have 2 versions.

One is cloud based one is local install. They are pushing cloud based one because, their local installer is really bad (it's also bad for commercial version, people often joked, that the hardest thing about SW is getting it to run)

But yes, you pay yearly subscription. Which I am not a fan of, but it's a decent price, and I understand that such niche programs, can't sustain themselves on volume

Problem is, its not available in many countries including mine.

They are saying "we are expending countries" but i check once in a while and hasn't changed in years.

In a lot of smaller cars, you can fold down back row.

And if you are ok, with having trunk open, and tied down, you can transport fridges (I used reno clio, that is slightly bigger). Done that myself (not two door wide ones, one door fridge).

That's said I just found out you can hire van for 35EUR 20min away from where I live, so nowdays I just do that.

>As a gamer, why would you want to spend a few hundred bucks on a gaming box, when it isn't able to play the biggest hits? Who would want to deliberately limit their ecosystem to indie games?

???

Look at steam top 100, sure there are 2 or 3 games you wont be able to play on there, but there rest work just fine. And sure there are popular games outside steam, but even if none of them worked (which is not true), for most gamers its a non issue. (And Valve is probably not really concerned about them)

The only games this limits are online competitive (most of the time FPS) games. There are plenty of gamers, myself included, that have 0 interest in such games.

In short even if 0 online FPS games are playable on steam console(which is not true), there are still 10s of millions of gamers, who wouldn't care.

As far as why wouldn't people pick something that can play 100% of games is because they cant. Even the best PC cant play Nintendo games, not all PS games are on PC or xbox, etc. You always have a trade off. And plenty of people still buy PC's,Deck, PS5's and Switch consoles.

My guess id more people won't buy it because, they want better specs, not because a few games wont work on them.

But that still leaves millions, potentially tens of millions of people.

it's not just porn blocking. That's just what is in newspapers. Porn blocking is only small part.

Essentially, you have to preform risk assessment if your site contains any child inappropriate content (according to new law that is defined kind of vague ), you have to age verify all the visitors from UK or risk getting fines.

Since service allows for user upload, this means that their site could protentional qualify. And even if it does not, you need a lawyer to go through everything, to make sure you don't. Sure the chances their site get targeted is small, but not zero.

Exactly, but a lot of studios thought they could get away without that, so now they are paying the price.

It's not that I think that UE5 is good for low end hardware, it's not.

One of the reasons that a lot of studios struggle with bad performance on UE5, is because a lot of studios, fired their most experienced devs and hired bunch of cheaper new programmers, because they bought into the whole make game with blueprints idea. I have several friends (I know just one datapoint ), that were in games industry from 6 to 12 years that got fired, just for the studio to replace them with cheaper more inexperienced devs.

Baicly UE5 overpromised how easy it was. You still get some great working games that use UE5, but this are from studios that have experienced devs.

C is 50 years old or something like that, and it still doesn't have a standard hash map.

Sure its not impossible for C to get that, but at the same time, they are trying to write git not fix C.

* My point is, that hash maps and data structures like that are clearly not the priority of C or they would **exist by now.

** by exist I mean either in C standard, or a at least a community consensus about which one you pick, unless you need something specific.

Ursela is there because politicians(individual countries leaders) want here there. She is convenient scape goat for things that would hurt politicians image at home, so they let commission do the dirty work, so they can say it wasn't their fault.

We are getting fucked by USA because we do not feel strong enough without them.

Everybody is blaming Ursula for the deal with Trump, like it was her decision. The individual countries politicians made the call, she is just a convenient scape goat (Probably precisely why her position was created for, to push things politicians know will be unpopular). Politicians (leaders of EU states) have and do have all the power to give her the marching orders.

We are getting fuck on a lot of things because we feel the need to rely on USA. With better/bigger militaries ourselves, USA will have les leverage.

If USD stops being global currency, there probably will not be just one that replaces it, but there will be several competing ones (USD still probably being there), for foreseeable future, with countries hedging bets.

Even if you are releasing such a solution today, it will take months/years to build knowledge and toolchains and best practices. Then have traind developers to be able to use it.

> youre risking getting trapped in a local minimum.

Or you are risking years of searching for perfect when you already have good enough.

> You're thinking too much by the rules. You can absolutely scrape them anyway. Probably the biggest relevant factor is CGNAT and other technologies that make you blend in with a crowd. If I run a scraper on my cellphone hotspot, the site can't block me without blocking a quarter of all cellphones in the country.

I am familiar with most of that, and there is a BIG difference between trying to find a workaround for one site, that you scrape ocasionaly, than to to find workaround for all of the sites.

Big sites will definitely put entire ISP's behind annoying capachas that are designed to stop exactly this (if you ever wonder why you sometimes get capatchas that seem slow to load, have long animations, or other annoying slow things, that is why etc.)

And once you start making enough money to employ all the people you need for doing that consistently, they will find a jurisdiction or 3 where they can sue you.

Also good luck finding residential/mobile ISP's that will stand by, and not try to throttle you after a while.

You definitively can get away with doing all of that for a while, but you absolutely can't build sustainable businesses on that.
