What Hacker News says?

  1. so the guy filled the Stadia dev form: https://stadia.dev/intl/en_us/apply/ but used a gmail account instead of pro email account (that's not a good move on his part here). and then he still can't get help from Stadia ? Possible but very hard to believe.

  7. As expected, it's running on Debian [0]. Ubuntu really messed up with their licensing, losing both Valve and Google... I'm also curious why they're not stating the CPU manufacturer. [0] https://stadia.dev/about/

  27. Having a good idea of what kinds of internet speeds people have around the world is no doubt hugely useful for all sorts of things like planning Stadia[0]. But moreover, Google is a member of the M-Lab[1] project that runs the speedtest servers, so why not add the feature? [0] https://stadia.dev/ [1] https://www.measurementlab.net/

  29. Apple Card [1] and now Coinbase Card [2] hmmm… I have thought about this many times in the past: How are big companies able to steal these ideas so fast? Actually, “steal” may not be the correct word, but I don’t think this was a coincidence.
