Not quite clear what Michael Pachter does for a living? A security specialist? Interesting choice to get insights on the Linux coding language…. Linuxst? Linuxthon? L? Linux+++?
⬆️ Extended image description #Alt4You: One of the reasons porting games to Stadia was slow was Google's decision to program games in Linux instead of C++, the language used by Sony and Microsoft. "If you wanted to make a game work on Google Stadia, you had to write it in Linux," says Pachter. "Let's say it costs $5 million bucks. Why would you spend $5 million bucks writing a game for an audience of two people?"
Did a little research on "Ed Fries, Former Head of Microsoft Studios". Apparently he joined Microsoft right out of university and spent 18 years there. According to Wikipedia his "notable work" is Halo 2600, an Atari 2600 game inspired by Halo and released in 2010.
Don't get me wrong, that's a cool project, but it seems clear that his programming experience consists solely of Atari 2600, Microsoft, and Playstation.
