Ah yes, the hostile architecture approach.

Whenever that happens, the design is wrong.

I don’t know the answer, but I do know I’d at least start off looking for hardware with a dedicated ASIC for routing, not general-purpose PC hardware doing routing with the CPU.

It looks like the “good enough” placeholder art that devs put in before they get around to hiring an actual artist. It’s serviceable to understand what things are and what’s happening, but there’s no style to it.

He just told you: “it looks terrible.” And he’s not wrong; Factorio’s art really does kinda suck.

Fun fact: the entire Free Software movement exists because Richard Stallman got pissed off at Xerox one day, for not giving him the source code so he could fix his printer.

Now pipe it through lolcat

Aren’t these guys supposed to be tech geniuses or some shit?

Rich/famous tech people have never been “tech geniuses.” They’re always sociopathic business/marketing types.

I mean, that’s been obvious since Microsoft bought it.

But this is really more about how emulator devs ought to accept that Nintendo is going to try to persecute them and start keeping themselves anonymous to avoid being ruined by lawsuits, even though what they’re doing is neither illegal nor unethical.

In the long run, shit like this is theft from the Public Domain.

LibreCAD is 2D CAD.

On the contrary: that just goes to show what a fucking catastrophe for software freedom “Secure[sic] Boot” is.

I learned Python after I already knew C, and I will forever be grateful for that.

I took an Operating Systems class in undergrad whose first assignment was to implement a simple web server in C, and it was fine. Later, I took the same prof’s grad-level class and had to do basically the same assignment again, and all I could think was “wow, this is incredibly tedious: this whole thing would be literally two lines of Python.” Python absolutely ruined my patience for writing C (or at least, for writing C socket code that has to manually juggle IPv4 and v6 struct addrinfos and whatnot).

Ha, you haven’t lived [in Hell] until you’ve tried to maintain a Jython build, with Python package dependencies (not just Java ones), in a production environment, in the 2020s.

I’m going for the Dr. Venkman combo: “Dogs and cats living together, mass hysteria!”

And which parts does the AGPL violate? Because that’s what the article is about: it becoming available under the AGPL.

C++ for kids - fine
Javascript for babies - call CPS!

Did the guy explicitly say in his video that he intended these to be “open source?” 'Cause otherwise, as far as I can tell, there’s nothing that actually gives anybody else permission to copy, modify, and redistribute. In other words, they’re proprietary “freeware,” at best.

The blueprint title block needs to have a field that explicitly names the license (Creative Commons or whatever), because otherwise it’s © Design Residential, Inc. All Rights Reserved, by default.

Don’t forget to think about how to keep the salt air from corroding the electronics. Either build a spare or two that you keep sealed in plastic, or find an airtight case with an integrated heat sink or something.

Edit: you might want to look into conformal coating and dielectric grease (for the connectors) as well, although I don’t know enough about that to competently give advice beyond the mere suggestion.
