150MB per 10min video, and that means it’s 390,000Mb (or 380.86TB) for their collection.
Your overall point is fair, but your math here is off by a factor of 1000 - it would be around 380 GB.

No I do not underestimate profit incentives. I just realize that these things are not always so nefarious and there’s plenty of money for people to make by bringing things to market.
Regardless - cost effective, portable desal devices will be dramatically more profitable than sitting on a patent for 20 years (if even enforced!). Most people buying imported bottled water due so because they are lazy not because they are without access to potable water.
Jeeze you guys are so cynical 😂It’s true that many innovations from academic research fail to be commercialized or scaled. But it’s also true that many many successful technological innovations come out of academic research and impact the lives of millions.
The biggest barrier here will most likely be whether it can scale, not patent litigation.
They are most useful during local development. It’s useful to have project-scoped config that your app interacts with in a manner identical to how it works in prod.
Generally you don’t commit to version control because you want to keep secrets out of there. However, it can be sometimes useful to hold non-sensitive config that you may want to commit but also to customize on prod. For instance like NODE_ENV, so you’re not building multiple mechanisms for configuring your code. But this is less useful and generally solved with a sample config that is copied to the .env file that is never pushed to VC.
The point I got from it was that Germans can go basically anywhere with low effort. The similar shades reinforce that, as concepts like “Visa not required” and “Visa on arrival” are pretty closely equal in burden.
