I wouldn't use it.

Seems to me like free plan is what browsers natively support anyway. (Scam site blacklist. I highly suspect they use the same. They can't compete with the one Google hosts and all major browsers integrate.)

And instead of paying 15 usd per month, Windows defender is a well funded, well established, well trusted solution.

There's no practical gain in blockage before download. Windows defender scans upon and after download, before execution.

It is.

Blazor is a big framework. It gives you a lot, but as a framework, also introduces stack complexity.

Being able to code on one C# codebase for a web application client and server is great. It's very fast. You can use modern C# syntax. You have component (CSS) isolation. You can switch and mix between runtime targets (server dom rendering and sending diff-updates or client-side app execution).

At work, we're using it for a webportal/webapp and I have not fundamentally regretted us using it. It's definitely not worse than anything else. For a productive development and product there's a little bit of framework knowledge you have to learn, but that's not different than any other framework. And docs are very good.

I love how fast it feels to use the end product too.

I actually implemented super tic tac toe in Blazor a while ago. It's interesting to play.

Why do I not win with a row on the outer field?

It counts won fields instead?

Krita doesn't have an Android app version though, does it?

Nothing is an annoying, confusing brand name.

The article doesn't say much. So I checked the source for more information. It doesn't say much more, but IMO in a much better way, in two concise paragraphs. In the sourced financial report, it is in the intro, two paragraphs:

An example R&D initiative, sponsored by the Innovation team was Project Ava, where a team, initially from Electric Square Malta, attempted to create a 2D game solely using Gen AI. Over the six-month process, the team shared their findings across the Group, highlighting where Gen AI has the potential to augment the game development process, and where it lags behind. Whilst the project team started small, it identified over 400 tools, evaluating and utilising those with the best potential. Despite this, we ultimately utilised bench resource from seven different game development studios as part of the project, as the tooling was unable to replace talent.

One of the key learnings was that whilst Gen AI may simplify or accelerate certain processes, the best results and quality needed can only be achieved by experts in their field utilising Gen AI as a new, powerful tool in their creative process. As a research project, the game will not be released to the public, but has been an excellent initiative to rapidly spread tangible learnings across the Group, provide insights to clients and it demonstrates the power and level of cross-studio collaboration that currently exists. Alongside Project Ava, the team is undertaking a range of Gen AI R&D projects, including around 3D assets, to ensure that we are able to provide current insights in an ever- evolving part of the market

The central quote and conclusion being:

One of the key learnings was that whilst Gen AI may simplify or accelerate certain processes, the best results and quality needed can only be achieved by experts in their field utilising Gen AI as a new, powerful tool in their creative process.

Which is obvious and expected for anyone familiar with the technology. Of course, experiments and confirming expectations has value too. And I'm certain actually using tools and finding out which ones they can use where is very useful to them specifically.

Hardly something to bet on for continued availability.

And phone plans are flats.

You must mean Flatrate? A term for a flat/fixed price with unrestricted volume (the default for home internet; mobile phone plans have variance).

I'm not aware of anything being called "flats" in German. Could be an abbreviation in circles though.

I enjoyed Reborn as a Vending Machine, I Now Wander the Dungeon quite a bit. It's not exceptional or great, but good. It certainly tells a unique story.

• Touchphone
• Voicetransmitter
• Walky-Talky
• Mini-PC

The alternatives are endless

Fun fact: In Germany, mobile phones are called "Handy" instead of "mobile phone"
