This is a very specific example since video games genuinely require loads of resources to run at the end user side. Most software projects aren't client-side behemoths like that.
- flohofwoe 3y agoOk, then web browsers :) Run by many more people than video games, but (not quite as) heavy when it comes to resource usage.
- rcbdev 3y agoHow many people do you know who work on browsers though?
- flohofwoe 3y agoA handful, but there are definitely more people who *use* browsers each day than there are people developing browsers. That's the whole point of the argument ;)
- rcbdev 3y agoAs I said, if you are FAANG or similar - which browsers are - the trade-off might be worth it, yes. But only a handful of software projects out there are browsers or video games. That's the whole point of the argument. ;)
