Well, people who do the actual real time systems (for mission-critical firmware, high-frequency trades etc.) certainly do care about it.

- Joeboy 13y agoAnd people who work for Mattel probably take care to avoid abbreviating the word "barbecue".
- kristiandupont 13y agoIf they cared because there is a risk of misunderstanding, I could respect that. But nobody is going to confuse the two, ever, and coming with terminology is hard. Using "real time" in this case is, in my opinion, well chosen and much better than other recent terms like "responsive design".
- lgieron 13y agoI for one got confused - I assumed the link is about real-time systems and not a web app (I'd be interested in reading about the former but not the latter).
- ceejayoz 13y agoSo? We're not talking about those systems. It's clear to everyone what "real-time" means in the context of webdev/JavaScript.
