When I started my first job programming job out of university, I spent a lot of time pairing with one of my teammates (online) at the beginning. Not necessarily because it was enforced, but I think we figured it would just be a good way to

Stadia's death doesn't mean the death of game streaming. There's other competition in that area on the market (GeForce Now, XCloud, PS Now), and unfortunately it seems pretty much inevitable at this point (as much as I also h
