CSV is so deceptively simple that people don't care understanding it. I wasted countless hours working around services providing non-escaped data that off the shelf parsers could not parse.
I thought Nvidia is selling shovels
Fully agree, and my first association was the "Men Will Do Everything But Go to Therapy" meme.
My former employer was a lot more YOLO than that. When I joined (in the mid 2000s) there was no https on the website, passwords stored in plain text, no backup strategy, etc. But they printed money with their system.
I think there was no realtime CC processing back then. In my last job I found artefacts like fax forms where they would write down collected credit card data (from online subscriptions) to be sent to their processor. To…
Not based on this source code, but on the original assets, 'reubs' made an Unreal Engine version of it. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M4QUy02cQqY&list=PL3gCaTLUSA...
Taking a picture vs publishing/selling a picture are separate issues.
I'm on the fence about XR and I for sure won't buy a "Pro" grade device. But regarding your point about reality shaping: Sometimes it's just obvious. When I saw the presentation for the iPhone, I know this was the first…
Germany really takes the price when it comes to (torrent-based) piracy. The lawyers around it created a nice little ecosystem for themselves. Honeypot torrents and all. They have such a nice system that they don't go…
You'd think a company of that size would have lawyers who know about protected regional product names. It's EU thing and you might disagree with it, but you have to comply with laws if you want to do business.
I used to think like this about marketing in general. "Build it and they will come" was the usual motto in my formative years. But isn't it a shame to build a great product and then not have people engage with it, just…
Nord Stream 2 was finished last year, it just isn't used yet.
Gazprom runs underground storages in Western Europe which they didn't refill before Winter 2021/22. Back then it was speculated to be used to hike prices, now we know it's more about leverage.…
Why not enable AFP on your Synology additionally to SMB?
Notes app also does OCR and indexes the scanned content.
Seems like this game engine is built on top of RubyMotion which compiles to byte code - no (slow) Ruby VM. This probably also allows them to bundle the game for many platforms. For hobbyists Gosu…

So, leave the body by the curb?
But with cars it's different as the individuals are responsible for their action. Not some shipping company. Why should I pay for reckless/drunk drivers?
Regarding Saudi Arabia: They should sit on a huge pile of money and the end of fossil fuels is not a big bang event. I would have expected them to use that money for R&D to shape the post oil world to stay relevant.
