I can see it running many games in "very good" frame rates and quality. But the economics don't make sense for Google if it tries to match the true high end PC configs. Once RDR2 is at 60fps, there will be other games pushing the envelope that won't be at 60fps on Stadia. Same applies to other consoles, of course... I'm saying that PC Gaming will still allow premium experiences for a while.
Their cloud offerings are a distant third to Microsoft and Amazon and support - especially enterprise support - is legendarily bad.

that is bizarre
As a consumer and a developer I don't really want Stadia to succeed because of the shift it represents in terms of ownership of media, as well as hack-ability of games. In general I want to have games locally so I can do whatever I want with them.

However, as an industry observer, it's hard to imagine that something like Stadia doesn't have the potential to be a huge success if they really could deliver on promise. With all the people watching people play games on Youtube and Twitch, it's hard to imagine you couldn't convert at least some small percentage of that massive audience into players if the barrier to entry was only a click of a button.
Simple: most Americans simply have it too good. They’re not living with 5 roommates just to be able to afford a roof. They’re not eating rice or potatoes for every meal. They’re not sitting in the sweltering heat or the freezing cold. Their tap water is not killing them.

Americans complain a lot. There are absolutely failures in the system and people who fall through the cracks, but the reality is that the middle class is fat and happy for a reason.

>> you can just pay another month to Stadia and let them handle all the hardware to run Red Dead Redemption 2 at 4k 60 FPS?

Except that you can't, because even though the premium tier is advertised as 4K/60fps, the game actually runs in 1440p. The Stadia hardware as it is right now simply isn't powerful enough to run that game in 4K.
So don't tell us to trust you?
> I do not see how this can possibly be the case. How do you define rational arithmetic with bounded denominators so that addition is associative?

There's only one mathematically natural choiceIn the case of bounded numerator and bounded denominator. You simply define (an/ad) + (bn/bd) = (bd × an + ad × bn) / (bd × ad) where the + on the right hand side is ordinary twos complement addition (and the equality test for an/ad and bn/bd is ad × bn == bd × an, which also naturally accounts for the zero-denominator-due-to-zero-divisors cases; alternatively, you can put everything in lowest terms, but there's no point).

> Regardless of efficiency, using rational arithmetic with bounded integers in numerical computing would be extremely unnatural to most analysts

Floating-point was invented by numerical analysts for numerical analysts. No wonder they find it most natural. The overwhelming majority software developers are not numerical analysts, and most programming languages do not target numerical analysts. Nobody says that numerical analysts should not use floats (except maybe the unum guy), we're arguing about defaults in languages that explicitly do not have numerical analysts among their core target audience.

Stadia is a staple of what the open web should be for games. Just open a web browser and the game is available. Much in the same way that Photoshop should be available on the web.

Unfortunately it had to be Google that had to get their oar into this space and therefore it looks like just a toy demo for them.

I do wish engineers at Google should instead contribute to the technologies that advance the open web instead of vanishing Google products.

My tinnitus generally doesn't bother me on a psychological level, so I feel fairly lucky in that regard. I just wish I didn't have it all the time and I end up drowning it out with music. I'd kill to be able to experience actual silence again when I'm trying to sleep or just want to sit around and relax.
Restricting sex to strict monogamy would definitely limit the spread of STDs and prevent some socially disruptive things like a divorce with children, parents rejecting illegitimate children, etc. Of course in real life none of that ever actually worked, and things like condoms and economic equality might work better. Or not. We haven't exactly solved these issues yet.

But yeah, if people actually cared about what Jesus said about anything, poverty would have been solved a long time ago.

I've had one instance with amazon where they clearly drop shipped the product and didn't even take it out of the box. I purchased a single hang-on-back aquarium filter which came in an absolutely massive amazon box, containing another hugely oversized walmart box, containing an unlabeled/unbranded box which was still too large, and then finally the aquarium filter in it's own box and packaging. It almost seemed like it had been shipped from some supplier, to walmart, to amazon, and they just kept sticking the package in a larger box. The amount of waste for a single small filter was absurd

I used to work on (the second generation) cloud gaming. It's very difficult to be profitable. Most people would think that the challenge is latency, streaming quality. But the real challenge is cost management. The cost can be easily as high as $2 per hour. At this rate, the monthly cost will buy you a decent computer or a console. It doesn't make sense.

Plus, to make cloud gaming work, you have to own everything. From the video encoding hardware, operating system, virtualization, game content, distribution channel, cloud ...

For example, we tried to hack windows to support existing windows games. It was very difficult. Windows isn't a multi-user system. There is no proper user isolation. We have to monitor the hard drive to see what files are touched by games, and try to resolve conflicts caused by different users using the same machine. It's very hacky. An easier way is just discarding the VM and refreshing the hard drive, but it will result in long loading time of several minutes, very high cost and poor experience.

And then there is the game store problem. Game publishers won't share revenue. You basically sell the games at the same price and also charge users for the cloud gaming platform for a compromised experience. doesn't make sense.

There is only one company that owns the whole stack, Microsoft. They own the OS and APIs (so that includes all the drivers), virtualization, games (XBox store), data centers (Azure).

A few years ago, YC invested in a cloud app streaming company (they kinda used the same technology we used.). I was surprised. After working on it for a few years, I would not invest if I were an investor.

Google's stadia seems to be smarter. As it tries to avoid some of the dead-ends we went to, especially trying to hack windows to make it cloud gaming friendly. Google chose to use Linux and develop games tailored for cloud gaming. I think that's a better choice, but will face content issues.
Misused? They should not be allowed altogether. It's really sad to read about this, and equally frustrating to see that nothing is being done about it. This kind of behaviour is just sociopathic; it's child abuse.
Rich people rarely buy stuff in proportion to their greater income (earning 100x more but not buying cars worth 100x more, etc). This would mainly affect the not-so-rich people, who, given fixed purchase budgets, would probably respond by consuming less, which is likely to hurt businesses with lower demand for just about any product.

That's partially true. However, the middle class will continue to shrink, because the 1% have made it very difficult for anyone to join it and even harder to stay in it.

The original iPhone was not a product that existed because people "wanted it". It existed because Jobs had a vision - and he was effective at convincing people that they actually did want it.

Stadia unfortunately misses the mark on the second part due to sloppy implementation and just boneheaded PR. I think game streaming can be viable - but I doubt Google will be the one to crack this nut. My money is on Microsoft with xCloud, but even then that's still a wait and see for me.
I read the article, but it feels like "don't build anything until you are sure users want X". The problem is that nobody knows what users actually want, especially when you build something new. And the market will keep throwing ideas in several directions until one day, an idea sticks and becomes successful.

Like, no gamer in pre-Wii times "wanted to play hours standing with a motion controller". Nintendo released the Wii and it was a huge success (for a while at least).

Maybe the author's point is that Stadia is not doing anything "new", and this may be a good point. But it's still early days, and Google has deep pockets. It's a little too early to discard Stadia.
I too suffer from this, and I think it must be related to my ADD, because I think most people can filter these noises out.

There are plenty of high ping players on the ladder already. I myself have played on the NA server while physically in Asia. American pros train on Korean or European ladders too. It’s okay.

Also, StarCraft doesn’t have to be ultra-competitive. You can enjoy the campaign or coop, or just play some unranked multiplayer for fun. A bit more latency doesn’t ruin the experience, and many/most human beings aren’t twitchy enough anyway.

It looks like the layer limitation comes from the underlying union filesystem stuff and not from anything inherent in Docker itself. I wonder if it would be possible to build a new filesystem driver for Docker that could serve up an infinite ecosystem of immutable nix packages without having to actually unpack them. Whether such a thing would actually be of value would probably depend a lot on the use case, but I could imagine a CI type scenario where you wanted to have a shared binary cache and individual nodes able to come up very fast without having to unpack the pkgs and prepare a full rootfs each time.
Could it be the case that your in-group includes strangers and those who have been wronged, but does not include some other group of people? Maybe 'people who don't care about others'? Or maybe it's the people who perpetuate the injustices? I'm not saying that you have to have empathy for these groups, but maybe your outgroup doesn't look like what you may expect.

The corp. tax loss is 10%

Its becoming clearer that the world is shifting towards coordinated world-wide tax rates, similar to how central banks are coordinated. Modern trade is complex and almost always multinational. Clear and easy tax rates will actually allow anyone to enjoy fair taxation, instead of the current unequal situation in which megacorps can use complex schemes to drastically reduce their rates, while normal businesses can't.

Incidentally , the most unequal territory in terms of shifted profits is Europe. An EU-wide corporate tax of 20-25% would be good for business

I guess Google did an MVP and everybody is expecting it to be a fully-fledged offering already. That might have been due to Google promoting it as such of course (and asking the price for it).

What I also see happening is that as soon as they have a free tier, people are gonna try to play a game for 5 minutes because they saw something on Youtube or somewhere else and then 1 in X will just buy the game on Stadia.
Stadia is marketing the platform as if the technology is rock solid and reliable when there are a lot of indicators that it may not be. If it was marketed for what it is, I'd probably be rooting for it. But my gut says this is going to disappoint a lot of kids and college students who are attracted to the bottom barrel pricing. Also if game studios buy in and build key infrastructure and it disappears, a lot of human hours are going to evaporate into oblivion.

I do not think it's necessarily the case that they're paid royalties. I've considered getting audiobooks made for my books and Findaway Voices[1] and ACX both provide options where you just pay per finished hour.

A good narrator can cost $200 or more per finished hour, so it's not bad money and they're not assuming any risk. There are also options where the upfront payment is less and the narrator gets royalties.
