A solution for game assets building. Ideally it would be possible to build all assets (maps, models, textures, binaries) in a game from source files to the format that's distributed to people. Unfortunately due to the build times for certain things like maps it's not feasible to rebuild everything before every release. Combined with the fact that the files are relatively large means that we can't store everything in…
I want to slot my phone into a dock connected to three high resolution monitors and a keyboard/mouse and be able to do development work. Essentially, when it's in my hand it's in Phone Mode, when it's in the dock it's in Desktop PC mode. We are getting there with tablets. You can do this with the Surface for example thanks to Display Link technology. I just want the device to be phone sized , around 5.5" or so with a…

Have you seen Andromium as an early take on this concept? https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/andromium/the-superbook...

I don't want VC funding, I want Microsoft to go in this direction. Their phone OS was great, I generally like their tablets, and most desktop software works already on Windows. If anyone from Microsoft is listening I want them to do this.
Source-specific IP Multicast support on the open internet, which probably needs some serious magic to make it feasible on core routers, if it is solvable at all. Some shabby server in someone's basement could stream data to millions. CDNs would no longer be needed.
Now I don't have experience with Source-specific Multicast, which is supposed to resolve the cycle problem, but I think there remains a lot of fear of Multicast in the industry.
Can anyone else comment on cycle issues?
Also, in terms of scaling, Multicast requires of copy of the packet on the router to every port which is registered as a listener to a Multicast address, this will increase load on the larger routers.

I would be surprised if, with more competitive Intel chips or x86 on ARM emulation (the latter of this is in the works afaik), this didn't happen sooner or later.
I think part of the problem is that there isn't a demand, and, if I may rant a little, the reason there isn't a demand is that most developers do not separate business logic and platform-specific stuff (rendering, I/O, etc.) in the first place, whether from lack of skill/experience (which everyone including me is guilty of early in their careers), or the fact that the framework/platform you're working in "discourages" it.
