Too bad you’ll never receive that option from any manufacturer.
The scam is that they are actually doing the work, getting paid well
Listen. I know that there are some really shitty stuff going on in North Korea, and very real threats that their government is capable of, and it sucks for the people living there who have to do this work under threat of death.
But if you say that “the scam” is they’re doing work and receiving full pay for work done, I’m going to make fun of you. Oh no, someone outside of the West did work and was slightly less exploited by capital than usual in the process. Horror upon horror.
Not quite. Their “malicious” extension only got a few hundred installs. Using the data gathered by that extension and via other means they were able to locate other actually malicious extensions. Those total in the millions of installations.
Through this process, they have found the following:
1,283 with known malicious code (229 million installs).
8,161 communicating with hardcoded IP addresses.
1,452 running unknown executables.
2,304 that are using another publisher's Github repo, indicating they are a copycat.
To add, let’s do some math!
Let s be the total annual salary of every employee using Adobe. Our goal is to find the productivity ratio r such that changing to Gimp and open source more generally is a net positive from the standpoint of productivity and labor.
s/r will be the total annual salary after changing over, because (for instance) if r = 0.8 then LTT will need to either hire or work his existing hires 1/0.8 times longer, giving (at best, ignoring overtime and so on) s/r as the new labor cost.
We then subtract the current labor cost to get the switching cost s/r - s, and if this is greater than $10,000 then the switch is not worth it.
For instance, let’s say LTT employs 1 person at $50k/year. He’s a bit of a skinflint. We solve for r and arrive at a ratio of 5/6 or 83.33%.
If we have a different world where LTT hires 10 people and pays each of them $100k, we solve for r and get about 99%.
In other words, the switch is worth it only if the labor cost is small, so the extra labor is not very expensive, or the difference between the two software is negligible.
For those curious: Gothic 1.
I’ve never heard of it before and it doesn’t look like my type of game. Anyone played it?
Cassette Beasts not Beats ;)
A human made the graph

So like, it’s really easy to armchair and just say that they should ignore the haters and so on, but having been on the opposite end of a small Internet hate mob, even if you only have like a dozen people telling you that you’re a crook, or a piece of shit, or your stupid or dishonest, or whatever, it doesn’t really matter how accurate any of that is, it really does start to get to you, no matter who you are.
The only healthy option is to log out at that point.
Most closely matches the behavior of actual SNES consoles.
This requires very careful emulation of the timings of the various buses and co-processors, as well as on-cart chips which may or may not be present. For instance, a Speedy Gonzales game has a button in the final stage which crashes almost every emulator because enters an infinite loop reading from an open bus and waiting for the value to attain a specific pattern. However reading from an open bus is generally specified to be the last value loaded into the bus, which in this case is the load instruction itself, $18. So the value is read to be $1818 by most emulators, which doesn’t match the pattern expected.
However, this is only if you’re emulating with instruction level accuracy. It is possible for the value of the bus to change in between the instruction being loaded and the value of the bus being loaded due to an HDMA load being triggered, but this requires a cycle accurate emulator.
You may already know this, but Xonotic was forked from Nexiuz after the original code owner sold the GPLed code to some publisher to make a for pay game.
Trigraphs are handled by the preprocessor, so if you’re not handling that, then that’s fine. Digraphs are handled by the tokenizer, however.
Are digraphs and trigraphs deprecated?
Did you reference the standard?
GT4 is better than GT3 imo, but if you have to spend money on it, it might not be worth.
I’m mostly into RPGs, and it doesn’t seem like you are from this list. If you are, then FF10 and 12 are available. So are KH1 and 2, and also Wild Arms 3, Personas 3 and 4, Disgaea, Shadow Hearts, Okage, Okami, Star Ocean, Dragon Quest, Devil May Cry, God of War, and so on.
Viewtiful Joe 1 and 2 are silly and fun side scrolling beat 'em ups. Tony Hawk needs no introduction. Silent Hill 2 and 3 if you’re into horror. Resident Evil 4 if you’re into action horror.
Shadow of the Colossus is great if you’re into a quiet, contemplative adventure game.
in fact I just asked that exact same question to chatgpt4 and it also replied 1/365
Yes, you can get different answers because of different phrasing and also because random vector input
I spent an hour and a half arguing with my brother about probability, because he asked ChatGPT what the probability that he and his daughter were born on the same day.
ChatGPT said 1/113465 which it claimed was 1/365^2 (this value is actually 1/133225) because there’s a 1/365 chance he was born on such and such day, and a 1/365 chance his daughter was too.
But anyone with even a rudimentary understanding of probability would know that it’s just 1/365, because it doesn’t actually matter on which day they both happened to be born.
He wanted to feel special, and ChatGPT confirmed his biases hard, and I got to be the dickhead and say it is special, but it’s 1/400 special not 1/100000. I don’t believe he’s completely forgiven me over disillusioning him.
So yeah, I’ve had a minor family falling out over ChatGPT hallucinations.
Well, the problem is you don’t know what you don’t know. One of the first example tasks in the paper was regarding implementing a symmetric cipher. Using a weak cipher was recommended by AI tools sometimes, these developers didn’t know that some ciphers were weak. Additionally, even when the AI tool recommended a strong cipher, such as AES, it generated code that screwed up an implementation detail (failing to return the authentication tag), making the result insecure. And the user didn’t know it was wrong because they didn’t know it was incomplete.
There’s no substitution for domain specific knowledge. Users who were forced to use traditional tools got the answer correct significantly more often because they had to read, process, and understand the documentation for the libraries, which meant they understood why the symmetric cipher was the way it is, and what additional information needed to be reported and why.
A problem that only affects newbies huh?
Let’s say that you are writing code intended to be deployed headless in the field, and it should not be allowed to exit in an uncontrolled fashion because there are communications that need to happen with hardware to safely shut them down. You’re making a autonomous robot or something.
Using python for this task isn’t too out of left field, because one of the major languages of ROS is python, and it’s the most common one.
Which of the following python standard library functions can throw, and what do they throw?
bytes
,hasattr
,len
