We should use the term "auto-synchronizing" insteaf of real-time

• webjprgm 15y ago
  You know those journalist pages where they report what's happening at an event with immediate updates? It's called "live updating". Why don't we use that term? TV news stations say "LIVE" when it's current events happening now. "Real time" as used for this Ajax technique means that the page is auto-updating with events happening now. That's "live". Any seconders?

    In fact, in Meteor, the relevant packages are called "livedata" and "liveui". In the docs, Meteor usually tries to use the word "reactive" or sometimes "automatic," thought "realtime" does seem to have slipped in in some places.
