If you can manually enumerate it, and typescript reasons about it correctly, then it seems to me it would be trivial for the compiler to generate the enumeration? It sounds like the job is already done, at least for slow but correct, they j

As I said, the game model changes things. One of the main issues in these discussions is that no one posts what they’re actually imagining of the MMO to be doing — and we end up talking past each other. Anyways, with an FPS or Action RPG (a

With Cox it was cheaper to get Cable TV & Internet than internet alone, so I ended up with a useless cable box stuffed in a corner to keep track of and return 2 years later. Very annoyingly stupid policy

I don’t think graphics rendering is really the problem — worst comes to worst, you just reduce graphical fidelity — and regardless, rendering 300 AI characters roaming around is clearly doable, and it’d be the same with viewing real players

One of the issues with moving to NV is you get trapped by the cheap pricing — it’s really hard to argue that you’re willing to move to CA for 2.5x the price for the same house... far worse when you look at the north. But from San Francisco,

I don’t think that really counts for much — they literally just expanded their product suite, and integrated as such. If you’re not supposed to do that, then I’m not sure what a company is supposed to do other than have a single standalone

You can’t do much of anything if you’ve already given away the information in question — the same is true if someone copied the data itself. You have to not give away the key in the first place, at least not to any clients that you don’t ow

A document store is basically optimized for specifically hierarchal data situations — a tree. The data structure you’re describing, and what the article describes, is precisely that: a tree. When comparing a document store versus a RDBMS, i

I don’t actually see a graph represented anywhere in the article; the author references wanting a graph at the start, but the only thing I’m seeing described are trees of nested blocks. Even the properties list seems to be a grab-bag of KV

Isn’t this already the mechanism in play? They’re all signing exclusivity deals between streaming companies, as the streaming companies strive to differentiate on really their only notable difference: their catalog. An MGM buy just further
