There absolutely will be many, many old systems that predate and don't use SQL there. Anyone denying this has zero idea about how many extremely old legacy systems are still in use in big corporations and governments. Hell I've done work for companies with revenue in the billions who were still using a legacy Access database program that they didn't have the code for, nor any documentation, so trying to automate data imports was an absolute nightmare - but they insisted on not replacing it because "that's the system we know and it works".
You guys are literally fighting against government transparency and stopping wasteful spending of your (or at least someone elses) tax dollars because you have an irrational hatred for the guy. Absolutely insane. No one should be against what DOGE is doing - unless of course you're one of the many people profiting from the blank cheques being handed out wastefully.
No thanks, that alone says you're not going to get an honest unbiased discussion. Also when your evidence is "according to many comments" from a app filled with people that hate Musk with all their being as if it's their entire identity, it's not good evidence.
Being a developer who has done work for many governments in my country, you cannot just say "the government DOES use SQL" because they have many, many, MANY different systems that have all been built in different technologies over different decades by different people with different design philosophies and preferences. Will there be ones that use SQL? Absolutely. Will there be ones that don't? Absolutely.
It doesn’t matter if it’s actually very safe to do, it’s the fact that many women have been and are attacked that way so women will always have that fear in the back of their mind. Trying to deny this is going against basic human psychology and behaviour.
You only need to look at the current “man or bear” discussion to see how wrong you are.
So many reasons. Not everyone lives close enough to the city. Not everyone wants to ride a bike. Not everyone has showers available at their work. Not everyone would feel safe riding a bike, especially women. Then there's the big one - the weather.
At arrowhead especially, since they literally tell us on their website, the people doing DLSS would not be doing content or art or music or anything other than engine features.
Might want to check my updated post mate lol. They literally specify that they do not, in fact, do other things. I'm not the one guessing, you are. Do you work for Arrowhead?
Dlss is a hardware graphics layer and is not implemented more than calling an api.
As is almost everything in game development. DLSS is an ENGINE feature. It has to be implemented by the engine team. The people making art for the game aren't implementing DLSS or ray tracing lol.
Again - DLSS is a low level engine feature. It should be implemented before there is even any content. Sure in a little indie studio the person doing the content is probably doing the engine stuff too, while they're probably doing the music too, but for a game like Helldivers by a studio with about 100 people, the people doing the engine are not making content.
In fact, lets look at what Arrowhead themselves say about their team that made Helldivers 2, hey?
Engine Team
We work on the core technology of our game - the engine. We’re currently using the Autodesk Stingray engine, which is written in C++. Our main focus is the engine runtime - performance, streaming and core systems. We care a lot about correctness and gathering data to make sound decisions.
See how they're not making content?
Then there's the "Game Code Team". They collaborate with the content creators - Artists, Animators, etc.
Game Code Team
We work on the gameplay systems and features. We collaborate with Artists, Animators and all forms of Designers to create the best possible game experiences. We work with C++ and fast iteration times is a key success factor for us.
Then there's the Tools team: again, not making content
Tools Team
We’re responsible for the tools pipeline, such as the game editor. The various content creator teams are our primary customers and improving their workflows is our main concern. We maintain and develop various tools and software, and we work with modern C# .NET and WPF.
See how they mention "content creator teams"? See how they work on the tools for those teams to use?
You still want to carry this on? You think you know better than the people that make the game themselves?
if there are no grounds for a case on intellectual property infringement, one of which is “non-profit”.
These guys have said right from the get go that they're trying to profit off it though. Whoopsies.
Also the fact that its the exact same code that Yuzu ran, which just settled with nintendo for millions of dollars, is going to influence any future cases.
but at that point the courts might decide either way and litigation costs money.
Yeah so like I said - they have to be prepared to fight nintendo or just shut it down almost immediately.
All that needs to be asked of them is "are you willing to pay the court costs associated with Nintendo taking you to court, and then the millions of dollars to Nintendo if you lose?". If not then they shouldn't even touch it, because Nintendo will come after them.
If you think that every single system in the government does use SQL, there's another retard in here...
