You have to consider the origins, going back to Star Office in the days where most people were on really slow Dialup if they had internet at all. And even a lot of businesses were almost worse, sharing a single dialup or ISDN connection.

I'm not so sure on that... even if one $60k machine can handle the load of 5 developers at a time, you're still looking at 5 years of service to recoup $200/mo/dev and that doesn't even consider other improvements t

For my relatively limited exposure, I'm not sure if I'd be able to tolerate it. I've found Claude/Opus to e pretty nice to work with... by contrast, I find Github Copilot to be the most annoying thing I've ever tri

On the flip side... I can't tell you how many times I've had to explain how public/private key crypto works do developers and IT security staff working in government projects. And this is just for one-way trust of JWTs for S

And when I need my wife to pickup my car for me because I took hers to work and she's taking an Uber to get my car...? Definitely over the top issue.

I'm not disagreeing... but it depends on how you shift the complexity/work and how you lean into or don't lean into the services a given cloud provider offer or not. Just database management is a pretty specialized skill, sep

And if each of your clients is in the Healthcare industry and dealing with end-user medical data? Or financial data? Are you prepared for appropriate data isolation/sharding and controls? Do you have a strategy for scaling database

On the software side... depending on your business model, you can factor in a lot of the cost structures into your structure. Especially for say B2B arrangements. Cloud integrations, for example, allow you to simply use a different databas

I would probably adapt a slightly different strategy/structure... probably using a git repository with markdown files and a mix of front-matter and TS with a DSL library for rules processing. The cold storage is a combination of direct

Of course... I'm just talking about raising the bar enough so that it would take a bit more than some casual observations to crack. Per my final statement in GP comment. > In the end, it was probably as much about satisfying the co

A lot of open-source doesn't have a process to integrate and follow a design strategy from a designer. A business can mandate that work be done to adapt/follow a given design strategy... for open-source it's often harder to

Yeah, I'd say that's the gist of it altogether... I get they want to monetize hosting/support etc.. but they should really try not to gatekeep what should be basic/public information. I'd still probably put Collabra

If your keys are in 3/4 parts, that's probably sufficient... You bake in a public key for the device/projector... you sign the files on disk against the private key (for the encrypted hashcheck as a sanity check), you use an

I think it's a combination of things... Gen-X was the start of the real decline in marriage rates, which tends to really affect people later in life in terms of fulfillment (related to having children), so now that we're well into

Not mentioned, but something I would like/expect would be to have some kind of editor integration... VS Code remote extensions, as an example even... You can be in a remote code server with your local editor and terminal tab(s) within

There's lots of web-forum software out there... I like the FB group UX, but it's definitely gotten worse over time. I think the problem is network affect and notifications in general. I've gotten to where I disable notificat

Maybe it's a bad idea to build critical UI bits with React? I mean, I'm a big fan of React for a lot of things... but I don't think critical pieces of UI/UX interactions should be built with it at all. The taskbar, star

Too bad Proton and Wine are open-source, and they can't really remove them from the ecosystem... So if your game runs under Wine/Proton today, there's a pretty good chance that game will continue to run years from now. I&#x2

You do realize that Linux is almost as old as Windows is, right? It's like 6 years younger, but considering they're both over 3 decades old now... I don't think I'd be willing to place bets on Linux dying any time soon.

The PLATFFORM from a game publisher's perspective is still going to be Steam/Proton on Linux... More likely than not, it's all still mostly going to be Win32/64, but with improved Proton testing/targetting... this

I wouldn't say you need launchers necessarily, but installers/configurators maybe. Getting the directory structure and the right WINE or Proton dependencies is a bit involved sometimes. Especially when what you have are really O

This is the mixed bag... and I'm glad that Valve is at the forefront of this one... While I feel the fees may be excessive in a lot of cases (same for mobile app stores), at least Valve seems to be good stewards of PC gaming as a whole

I think they'll still target Windows APIs and DirectX... but that they'll test much more heavily for Proton usage to ensure good experience.

I wouldn't go that far, I would suggest that any game studio interested in the next 10 years of PC gaming will need to at least start doing testing through Proton/Wine to ensure there's no clear/prominent bugs. It doesn
