This is true and I'm sad to see the hacker news crowd blindly repeating falsehoods.

>Let's assume the asset appreciates at an annual rate of 8 percent

Quite a lot of value creation going on. Good on them!

Many games do happen to be set up this way wrt their input systems if they happen to leverage Steam input. Player actions in game are defined as abstract verbs with concrete input device binding being left to the player / underlying system. Valve is trying to nudge games towards being platonic objects isolated from specific systems (so they'll be readily compatible steam deck, vr, pc etc...). Translating these verbs in an automated way with an agent is an interesting side effect.

I officially protest hacker news cynicism and choose to love this ideal

Crafty. Would have never thought to look in baby powder for a company report of findings.

I got this idea from a friend, but whenever I wanted to learn a new language, I would quickly hack out a 4001 emulator in that language. Its an interesting but quick challenge.
