I assumed it was in the context of advertising. You literally can't have an email service that doesn't process your emails somehow. Spam filtering and phishing protection has to work on the content of the email, the act of sending

Gaming can be competitive on all kinds of consoles, input devices, and levels. Some games like Rocket League and many fighting games are primarily played on a controller or some kind of gamepad at the top tier.

Yeah, i'm really curious to read more about the tech here. I know things like the Oculus Rift does some fancy processing to kind of "smear" frames to compensate for head movement while the PC renders a new frame. I'm won

I haven't played it myself nor have I done a ton of research, but Crackdown 3 just came out recently, and I heard them talking about how important the cloud aspect of it is to enable the dynamic destruction they have in their multiplay
426.
by Klathmon 8y ago
Yeah i've experienced it as well. I'd imagine a big part is that games which are written for a system like this can do some compensation if they know the latency is between controller and the system (vs games which expect the late

They aren't the first or the only one doing this. Crackdown 3 already semi-famously uses Microsoft's cloud systems to do some physics processing in the cloud and not on the client. Stadia might be a lot easier for devs to code aga

I wouldn't be so sure. Competitive games already need to compensate for latency in the network. This system technically won't have any "additional" latency, it will just move where it happens. The amount of time between

Don't get me wrong, a realtime discussion is extremely important in many cases. When brainstorming or talking through bugs or building something collaboratively, it doesn't get any better than an in-person or video meeting. But wh

The first major version of TypeScript was basically "C# in JS clothing". It made the migration from C# SUPER easy for many that were used to the C# way of doing things. Then throw in that many C# devs already had to know some JS f

I honestly haven't seen many "groups" move from JS to Go. I've seen individuals do it, but not a ton of "organizations" make that kind of move. I've seen a LOT more go from Python to Go, and a few go from

This is also why I'll often not ask important questions in meetings and will instead ask them in a chat message or email. Not only does the act of writing it out make me ask a better question (and there are times I answer the question

And your feelings toward a purpose in life aren't objectively right either. If I want to spend my short time on this planet in a more productive way so I can do more in my life, that's my choice and I'm not making a mistake o

I'm sorry, but I think even saying 0.1% of users use a clipboard manager is way overestimating it. The top clipboard manager apps have like 500k installs. Android had 2.7 billion users in 2017. If we assume that the Android install bas

I've used something like this in the past when working with tools that are difficult to host locally. Why setup your codebase and all the dependencies to run locally on a laptop when you can just spin up an instance on a server that ma

I believe this was also (at least partially) done for performance reasons! In general, compared to a JIT, an interpreter is faster to start executing code, and can more quickly (and efficiently!) execute code that will only run once. V8&#

I believe the problem is the "message bus" is pretty slow, and has pretty limited throughput, especially for something like audio and video.

npm doesn't allow you to delete a package once it has some downloads to prevent another left pad incident. I'm sure they can make exceptions, but it's not as simple as a quick CLI command.

It's getting there for us in JS land, slowly but surely! There's still a lot of discussions that need to happen (read as "mostly bikeshedding" IMO), but once they settle on the actual syntax, i'd feel comfortable to

Pattern matching will break you. I get frustrated at least once a week trying to use it in a language that doesn't have it. My brain just thinks in pattern matching!

Here's a fun one for you! When I was a kid I was briefly a ward of the court. During that time, I had an official address that was not where I actually lived, and somehow the credit bureaus got ahold of that information. So whenever I

But the human brain fails at this if it's rotated also... If you showed me the rabbit rotation of the picture, i'd tell you with pretty high confidence that it's a rabbit. If you showed me the duck rotation, i'd tell you

Don't get me wrong, Uber isn't fault free here in my opinion, and I'm mostly in aggreement with you. Pretty much everyone involved here was negligent in some way if you ask me. My point was only that I don't think this w

Having a "username" that you login with which is different than the email address would solve the same issue.

I don't know the answer (or if there is a fully formed answer at this point), but I have heard the React team talk about this a bit. Facebook internally has a MASSIVE number of components, and apparently a lot of them are using older A

Aren't solar-cells on the car like multiple magnitudes less power than regular level 2 chargers? There was a lot of talk about why Tesla wasn't putting solar panels on the cars when the Model S was still new, and I thought the gen

I was reading some speculation today about how the preheating might actually be super efficient (i have no way to verify this though). The car will most likely just divert the coolant from the motors to the batteries, mostly skipping the ra

Yeah the current Crew Dragon is different and needs to be "re-certified" for at least some things. NASA wants the exact configuration used to be validated.
