There are so many big fines related to IT, at some point I tend to believe it's a way to get a back a part of all those taxes they don't pay. It seems to be a diplomatic way to handle this thing.

It's also crucial to not forget about wirth's law, that states that software is getting slower than hardware is getting faster. So don't fall for software vendors that want to convince you that you need a faster CPU every x y

Why can't they make the same thing but as a phone? I'm desperate to have a cheap, open, frugal device that I can program easily that fit into my pocket. I'm not willing to use Android studio just to make a simple app, or godo

I brought up Hitler, and another question on socialism. Looking at the answers, this AI is really a troll factory. EDIT: Same thing for Putin and Ukraine. This AI seems like it's nectar for online trolls, so for morality, it should be

So can a large FPGA be somehow used to brute force encryption? I don't really understand electronics to see if a GPU could be faster than a FPGA, but my guess is yes? It seems that anything that can be programmed is inherently slower t

Profitability cannot be the only motive. A small fraction of those profits could be invested in indie games to diversify and just have "better games", not just profits. Stop using the devil's advocate at every occasion.
