Then there's two ways to work with that: 1) It's only Stadia users against each other; 2) People who are directly connected to the Google machine still have an advantage over the Stadia players. The first is... OK. You'll b

First of all, it's not always under Google's control what the user latency is. There are a myriad factors they do not control when it comes to the network connection. Second, Stadia does not send a game state like a multiplayer ga

What surprised me with their measurements is that the baseline Xbox One X lag is also quite high, but I suppose it doesn't matter if both are measured the same way.

I seriously did not understand how there could be no input lag, and even though I was asking people who both tried and watched it they all said that it was not noticeable. I had a hard time believing it, and still can't... Stadia shoul

Pokémon localisation for European languages (and English too) has always been full of puns and jokes like that; they really put a lot of care into them.

Out of a stance that is now more political than anything, the applications I've been building are entirely operating with server-side HTML templates with absolutely minimum to no JS (only for the occasional page load event or whatnot).

The next step is unfortunately not coming up anytime soon. They made account information and payment initiation service provider (AISP and PISP respectively) licensing mandatory to connect with banks, but most banks don't even have the

Thank you for pointing this out. Recently I've been talking to many different banks and payment service providers in the Netherlands, and it's absolutely crazy how little specification there is to the technical end of things. It&#

The one thing that does not stop boggling my mind on a daily basis is the lack of a consistent feature detection and the subsequent fallback mechanism for the web. I need to look at all these weird angles and use polyfills just to check if

The issue is that the compatibility and styling (animations etc.) are not fully supported or available. This should have been standardised much earlier, alas here we are with a half-assed solution to a very common pattern.

Americans in general seem to be quite engaged in these very high THC strains that give you the zoned out kind of high, as opposed to the more sociable (as you described) low THC and high CBD strains. For a coffeeshop setting, I would have

This is something that people overlook quite often. It is very important to have a well-documented, up-to-date, and capable standard library packaged with your language. It just creates a smoother experience altogether. Besides that, it als

Is this a recent change? I'm not sure if it's just another 'firing your customers' clause or something more sinister.

I am just bothered by the idea that the common folk have to explicitly police these corporations to do the right thing. This kind of justice allows people to risk bad policies just because they might, on the off-chance, get away.

This is such an odd exaggeration; the number of words you have to learn to type are just abysmally small. You don't have to know what the word 'integer' is to know how it works in your code. I-N-T, three letters, this symbol

I disagree. Calling English keywords in programming languages a barrier is the same as describing symbols in mathematics as a barrier. It doesn't matter which word signals an IF clause, the global uniformity is what is really impor
