Took me like 60 seconds to get it. I play poker and rogue likes already though

I thought so too, and maybe they are using a different metric in this article, but I couldn’t tell you since their source URL is a deadline…

Just cuz Nintendo is a company run by bitch-made cum guzzlers doesn’t mean its fans should bend over like that. It used to be that kids loved Mario and sonic, so they made a shit ton of Mario and sonic flash games. That’s good, creative, harmless, and gets attention because of the brand fandom.

Work arounds are for devs to solve, not schmucks on lemmy. CS:GO used to use something similar to occlusion culling to prevent this exact problem. Don’t send the client all of the enemy locations/data unless the client is within roughly the right distance/sight to see that enemy. This is not a full fix, but dramatically nerfs wall hacking.

I’ve seen community plugins for TF2 and other source engine games that will add “ghost” players. Generate ai characters, turn them invisible, and send their data to clients. If someone keeps shooting at the ghosts, they can easily get caught and banned.

There are entire industries dedicated to finding solutions to this problem, check out this research paper about this exact subject if you want.

Okay, now the player data is encrypted and unreadable by clients.

How will the client display where the players are without data…

Why are you bothering to spend cycles sending this useless, encrypted data…

If you mean to decrypt the player data once it reaches the client, then you have solved no issues…

Yeah, so pick a cool one

I am a tech consumer and enthusiast first. I am a corporate shill sellout second. I wish for bad practices in the tech community to die, even if it’s my own company doing it.

My concern as an engineer is that the product gets made well. I have no say or control over how the business cretins and marketing scumbags decide to destroy the company through terrible unethical practices like charging SaaS for completely self-contained software.

The short term view is that you need to keep a company afloat. Businesses should fail if they deliver products in awful ways. Yes, if the company fails, I will lose my job, and that is okay. It would be through no fault of my own, or really even the customers who wouldn’t pay for my company’s product. It would be the fault of the business decisions that were made. And the product landscape would then open up after my company’s failure. For example, if Adobe would finally fucking die then we may actually see better products on the PDF, and photo/video editing market. No more monopoly on sub-par creative cloud products.

The more realistic long term view is that software engineers will be okay if their company fails. The overwhelming majority are smart, get paid extremely well, and exist in a field that needs their manpower. They will be able to find a new job much easier than other fields. The tech community will not be okay long-term if bad companies cannot fail.

I am a programmer, and I get paid whether or not the product is bought. Shovel your dogshit somewhere else.

For every hour of work/coding I do, there is probably 4 to 5 hours of waiting for shit to automatically compile, fetch, build, release, apply, get reviewed, approved, and deployed. The downtime is immense, I spend it helping other people with shit or planning company potlucks (I don’t work for Microsoft).

Except companies have sued people for web scraping.

Even web scraping for research purposes, not for competitive purposes.

They obfuscate their traffic by randomizing user agents, so it’s either add a global rate limit, or let them ass fuck you

Data, network bandwidth, and CPU/Processing time from essentially every website in the world, and when you’re paying for cloud power to run your website the cost of webscrapers running a train on your digital asshole adds up QUICK.

It’s why normal human being people get sued to shit for webscraping data from certain companies who care. But companies don’t get sued because go fuck yourself. Kill bytedance.
