And as always, porn leads the way

  Having worked as an adult programmer, they are really far behind technology trends. You're lucky if they use version control and staging servers.

    Somehow there is this meme that porn sites are technically impressive due to their scale/small video playback enhancements, neglecting that they have a slightly more captive audience that will forgive small hitches than most streaming video providers. The meme is dumb and should die imho.

      It's not about quality of product. It's about motivation to deploy new technologies for the experience it enables.

      Having worked at a porn site and a FAANG, I’d say my porn work was more impressive — because payment processors / ad providers / hosting companies / etc are so anti-adult-content, getting anything done is a lot harder.
