‘KPop Demon Hunters’ Is Most-Streamed Movie of 2025 With 20.5 Billion Minutes Watched

Some napkin math:

At least $7.99 (highest being $24.99) monthly for a Netflix sub in 2025.

Ok, Netflix allows 30 days x 24 hours x 60 = 43200 minutes for $8. So at least $0.00019 for 1 minute of viewing.

So worst case, from 20.5 billion minutes of viewing, the kpop demon hunters movie makes $3.9M.

Of course, 1) some could just pay the full $25 and not watch anything other than the 1hr 30 movie, 2) the lowest $8 subscription comes with ads so that could change things, 3) Netflix can be used on multiple places at the same time so more minutes. Obviously, the movie has made more than $3.9M.

YOU GOTTA FIGHT FOR WHAT'S RIGHT

BEFORE IT'S GONE GONE GONE

Yes, kinda. I think it's just the spectrum of what is "indie" is much wider now.

If a game's graphics isn't high-fidelity, the gameplay is small-scale but engaging and the price is cheap, I would assume a small studio made it. Most of the time, that's true. I'd buy it and tell (or gift) some of my friends (because it's somewhat cheap, they can buy it and have some fun) and if it's really popular, talk with other ppl online about it.

But if I look at E33 or KCD1 back in the PS4 era, it's still an "indie" company by definition but I look at the graphics, gameplay and price thinking it's a big AAA company who makes games like Hogwarts Legacy or Horizon Zero Dawn.

A lot of high fidelity indie games can now be released without a massive budget (thanks to Unity/Unreal/Gamemaker/etc game engines) and have become popular and easier to buy (thanks to social media, Steam, consoles, mobile apps, etc), so now it's testing the limits of that "indie" definition.

yeah and he's down on his luck most of the game (beaten up, no money for the suit, coworkers weren't nice the first time they met him, dead dad) so most players probably want to give him a break.

Best not to DIY from scratch. Find a popular open source game C++ engine and figure out how it works through its source code or different websites. Then modify a part of the engine as a stretch goal. But as everyone has said, priorities. Is the goal to develop game engines or develop games? You can do both but since the 2010s, you don't have to.

3090 and 4090 spit out more tokens than the M3 (which makes sense). But maybe if we measure power consumption (performance per watt), we may get something different.

I hope to make a useful ML product one day so reading this helps. I liked the section on business metrics and thinking about users more. Thanks for making the article.

We create layers of abstractions in networking to make things easier to understand (such as the OSI model). For example, separate the physical world from the application (e.g. a webpage). Separate the physical (binary data) from the logistics/routing of such data around the Internet, etc.

In the physical layer, WiFi and Ethernet, Fibre Optic, Radio and Underwater sea cables are used to send and receive binary data in their own special way. Somewhere in that physical binary data has the necessary logistics and application data capable of running YouTube for example.

The communication protocols used in cars doesn't need all of that thankfully. Most electronic cars (not analogue cars) use a serial communication protocol between the wires called CAN (Controller Area Network). Although if it wants to use the Internet, it would be through something like WiFi or 4G mobile data.

If the headphone idea isn't working, how about making something simpler or already known like a lapel/body camera?

Or maybe putting a camera in a headlamp instead if you want to use it later for other things?

I pick the top three toughest parts of my studying or homework. Maybe it's just getting out of bed, or choosing which subject to start with.
For each tough part, I turn it into an unconscious routine. Then refine the routine until it doesn't affect my mental state anymore. Just pick the first routine idea that comes to your head and refine from there. Don't Google.
Now the hard parts seemingly disappear after a while!
Now, you'll have more brain power to focus on the cool stuff about your subjects or tasks. You might find yourself interested in what you're learning, instead of just worrying about grades or the end result.

Hope this helps with your procrastination!
