C++ because 99% of the major games are built in that language.

Yes but again it's not hot swapping code as in Erlang, the C++ code is unchanged, they just change some xml somewhere. By your definition every CRUD app have hot reloading capabilities.

Most of those hot fixes are data driven as in database updates. Gameserver just reload the data, the binary itself is not touch. I've never seen a game where they hot reload code inside the gameserver itself, it's usually a down

It's kind of weird to do that though, it mixes up concerns, why would an operation starts to mess up with specifc db integration.

This is just a bad take on Blizzard. - x years on the project titan, only to get cancelled Overwatch came out of that and it was one of the biggest game in the last 15years. It sold over 50m copies, an insane number.

It feels like everyone re-implement the same application, searching text in language x.y.z has been done a million times, search speed in not a problem so what differenciate this solution with the dozen+ mature ones. The speed looks great b

TTY, console, shell, stdin/out, buffer, pipe, I wish there was a clear explanation somewhere of how all of those are glue/work together.

Sometimes it's easier to add 3 printf() than to run your project under a debugger.

Even in the same city most people won't have 7ms, not sure where that number comes from.

Hot code update is one of those thing I don't understand, just use a rolling deployment, problem solved. You have a new version of the code without loosing any connection. It's one of those thing that sound nice on paper but a act

In 2012 Youtube did the Red Bull stratos live stream with 8m concurrent users. We're 12 years later, Netflix fucked up.

That's how you end up with C++ and soon C#.

It means that using bruteforce to find all the values would be much faster.

Linking account with first party etc ... is pretty complicated way more than what people think. The whole cross play story is also a nightmare to support. The third level of complication is to support China.

Appending from multiple goroutine to an in un-synchronized slice is "memory safe", it's completely different from c/c++. It behave exactly like Java or C# which are also memory safe.

The trigger for Go is exactly "no human will ever write code like that".

Go is memory safe by modern standard. If I show you a UB in Rust without the use of unsafe does it means Rust is unsafe?

Gabe newell has 0 value in that discussion, Steam is defacto the monopoly on PC, when you make billions by not doing anything and taking 30% on every game it's less of an issue. The other funny thing is that Half Life 2 came out with f
