Also the good old phishing emails/links. So many people are simply unaware when a website is pretending to look like an app/floating window. Even younger people who you'd hope know better are falling for it today. I work on a

Is any SQL database suitable for 50GBps of network traffic hitting it? Most if not all of your concerns with SQLite are simply a matter of not using the default configuration. Enable WAL mode, enable strict mode, etc. and it's a lot be

I'm with you but it's not up to us. Computing has been moving more and more away from desktops and laptops in new (human) generations. iPadOS is slowly becoming Mac-like where you can have a cursor, dock, and have apps open as win

I think it's more likely Apple will shift everyone to using iPads and phase out Mac.

More performance sensitive but also more constrained. Balances out as long as you're not doing anything silly.

The problem is different parts of the SoC (CPU, GPU, NPU) may not actually be able to consume all of the bandwidth available to the system as a whole. This is why you'd need to benchmark - different chips may be able to feed the cores

I would expect/hope that DGX would be able to make better use of its bandwidth than the M4 Max. Will need to wait and see benchmarks.

Pretty much all CPU architectures these days do.

As a Steam Deck user I'd rather have the platform kept open like how it is now than lock it down. It's one of the significant advantages the Steam Deck (and PC gaming in general) has over consoles.

There are still lots of games that allow you to host private servers.

I'm not familiar with Rocket League but server authoritative netcode is not comparable to cloud gaming. All games should be as server authoritative as possible to prevent cheating from the start. The problem is the client may have more

I work on one of the games mentioned in this article and you're underestimating cheaters and cheat developers. We're doing this already and we're one of the smaller studios, so the larger studios are for sure doing it on a la

Burst is an impressive piece of tech but it really only exists because both Mono and IL2CPP are shockingly slow. Mike Acton worked under DOTS which is the only place you'd actually see the benefits of Burst. The 99% (or more) of Unity

by Rohansi 1y ago
Yes, consoles, phones, and web are the hard ones to support due to a lack of JIT support. That's going to take some time to resolve. Especially since Native AOT is much more restrictive than IL2CPP. IMO Burst was a mistake. C# running

by Rohansi 1y ago
I disagree. I believe there are enough game developers out there who enjoy using C# that would look for it in their next game engine. If Unity is gone it would leave a large hole to fill. The upside is Unity's C# support is the worst a

You have the same risks with apps though. An operating system has an even larger surface area. Sure, you need to manually install apps, but once installed they will automatically update. Personally I would trust browser security far more th

Sure, browsers can navigate without your input, but what good would that do to bypass permissions? You can't use that to automatically grant your website permissions. And permissions are isolated to specific domains as if they were sep

The Steam Deck only supports up to UHS-I. There are UHS-II and UHS-III cards out there that support higher bandwidth.

Multiplayer video games are the big one. There's no reason why you couldn't apply the same kind of synchronization to a web app. You'll just need to decide on an approach because not all games do it the same way. Most likely

by Rohansi 1y ago
I also found it weird. They're basically doing what multiplayer games do but for a web app. Not the typical way you'd build your web backend but nothing actually new... not even using CRDTs, just inspired by them.

Modding is a lot more approachable than making a whole new game. The only issue is most games aren't moddable. Some people still try to mod games that don't support modding and that's where you're likely to run into copy

They can't really provide that guarantee. It's possible for lower allocation rates but what happens when 10ms is not enough time to keep up with all of the new allocations? At some point it'll need to stop the world because i

I don't think it's this simple. Maybe it would be for larger corporations that would rather hire more cheap staff than fewer quality staff. You shouldn't have this issue if the company values the experience the staff has inst
