I’d rather they leave this kind of functionality to libraries than to include every possible thing they think people will use the language for.

Frustum culling is completely unrelated to scheduling. It’s just a technique for avoiding spending processing or rendering time on things that can’t be seen by the camera. It existed before games were multithreaded, during the time when the

Putting a restriction on the definition of open source that limits discussion to those with the time and ability to submit patches sounds, to me, like the opposite of openness. A piece of open source software being used by people outside th

While a front end bug that gets in the way of sales is bad for a business, a poorly designed or buggy data layer can cause issues throughout the rest of the application. It can lead to things like lack of isolation between users, loss of da

Google recommends a 35mbit/sec connection for 4K Stadia streaming and they say it uses 20GB/hr of data[1]. Even at your high example of 100GB, that’s just 5 hours of streaming. I understand that the idea is to optimise for instant

When buying a game on Stadia is the same price as buying it on other platforms but with the downside of a total loss of control or ability to play offline it becomes less attractive.

Is download time a significant factor for people with the types of connections that will have a good experience on Stadia? It’s my understanding that downloading a large game in a timely fashion and streaming it are both bandwidth-intensive

With a fully automated system it’s much easier to track someone’s movements than it is if you had people watching cameras. The spread of facial recognition software is a differentiator worth pointing out.

Do you have information showing that the FTC's ruling was unjust? As far as the companies they go after, I think going after large brand-name ad networks and data mining companies like Google is at least as important as going after the
