Looks like a serious competitor to Unity. Modern C# is really easy to pick up for beginners (that's actually how I started learning programming back around 2010). What does monetization look like? Can you ship standalone games? Source

Yes, their MCU offerings are. And I generally think that Micropython is a better "modern" Arduino. But most people know them for their Linux boards. And that's what OC was talking about.

RPi is not a good analog compared to Arduino. The main feature of classic Arduino boards has always been a thin abstraction layer on bare metal. RPi is not that at all. (As mentioned by the other commenter, I'm referring to their Linux

Part of the issue with the "slogan" is Cursor/XYZ jank IDE is already "for files". "Cursor for data" seems slightly better in my opinion. You are clearly using "Cursor" as something to draw fami

Nitpick: Cursor for Files makes approximately zero sense to me given what I see here. Feedback: Supporting an enterprise air gapped solution of this clearly has huge value. It really doesn't matter where the data is stored if the index

Someone might be wondering why someone might have different URLs. One example is anyone under sovereign clouds (eg. GCC, GCC-High) which use different URLs (and TLDs) across the board (eg outlook.office365.us)

That's due to Electron, not Chromium. Which is exactly why VSCode has a near parity version that runs on the web, under any browser engine. Saying VSCode is based on Chromium doesn't make any sense.

That's like saying news.ycombinator.com is based on Chromium. VSCode runs on chromium, like any website you visit when using a Chromium browser.

I disagree. All photos have an exposure time; that's an inherent property of them (think film). Compositing images digitally on top one another is not an inherent property of photos. You can double expose film, and I think that's

I'm not sure I agree that OCs argument was focused on knowing that you were hosting illegal material that is encrypted. I'd argue that no-where in jiggawatt's comment is that argued. I think that's your argument, which i

In my experience most chips released in the past 10+ years ship with C++ compilers. Quite frankly I'm not sure why you wouldn't given that most are using GCC on common architectures. The chip vendor doesn't have to do any wor

Yes. Using another machine, record the screen & programmatically move mouse. At that point you have to look at heuristics (assuming the input device is not trivially detectable vs a legit one). However, that can obviously only be used f

DMA is "easy" to patch. No reason to allow a device to have arbitrary memory access. Just require use of IOMMU. FaceIT essentially has countered most modern cheats including those using DMA. https://www.faceit.com/

Unless you made a typo here-- Apple's equivalent to this is Mac Mini, which has soldered CPU, GPU and RAM (and also the SSD as its not soldered, but it's not standard).

A company of what country would you prefer? Everyone likes to dunk on the US, but I doubt you could provide a single example of a country that is certainly a better alternative (to be clear I believe many of the west up in the same boat).

Memory safety is a very small concern for most cryptographic implementations (e.g Side Channel attacks). Rust solves essentially none of the other concerns.

Yup, I really like their microcontrollers (which quite frankly nowadays what's the difference between an SOC and some of these more capable MCUs), but my comment was specifically relating to their "Linux" capable boards.

Title critique: RaspberryPi is not an SoC vendor. They take proprietary SOCs from Broadcom, use proprietary firmware and build a product around it. They obviously upstream what they can, but they fundamentally are a system integrator, not a
