Cool, I'll buy it once it comes to GOG.

Well then let me actually download the movie like it was a game, then! And how exactly does it take less bandwidth? It's still tens or hundreds of gigabytes to download every time someone wants to install a game, most people only use the offline installers as backups.

What do you use for automating the backups?

And yet, somehow, GOG and Itch still exist, allowing you to download games completely DRM-free, as often as you like. If they ever go out of business, you can still use your local copies forever.

How do they do it? A mystery...

You must first have the patent.

A while ago I wrote an extensible dummy data generator for Java.

I needed to fake some scientific data for a project at work and wasn't satisfied with how closed for modification existing data generation solutions were, so I decided to tackle writing a library on my own.

It was my first major contribution to open source and had some architectural challenges which were fun to solve, not to mention the learning experience :)

Isn't he only a CEO? What exactly did he himself create?

You're not "supposed to" upgrade every year, that's the point. You should be able to use a 5 year old phone if you want to.

So online meetings are less taxing on the brain than in-person. How is that a bad thing?

So something like a Synology NAS, I guess.

I replayed it a month ago and still liked it.
