Or for gaming the definition of “done,” agile -style.) Even though that remediation task was pretty minor — tweaking some low-level hardware settings on each physical server and rebooting — and could have been done quickly enough, there was intense debate on whether it should be done. Sure, Jan … we could do that.

We know that getting full computational performance out of most machines—nearly all desktops and laptops, most game consoles, and the newest smartphones—already means harnessing local parallel hardware, mainly in the form of multicore CPU processing. Parallelism is not just in full bloom, but increasingly in full variety.

You can also embed code in your application’s meta tags for built-in error tracking, and you may provide visitors an avenue to give feedback.

After 20 years of neck-in-neck competition, often starting from common code lineages, there just isn't that much left to wring out of the system. Consistent improvement is the name of the game, and it can still have positive impacts, particularly as users lean on the system more heavily over time. Critical for gaming with a mouse.
