@Immergrün Ross might still be cautious about that topic, not that long ago it could have screwed up your channel (I wonder whether or not it's finally okay to even pronounce the word "Covid" on Youtube; for the longest time it was just "The Virus")

Also, if we are being pedantic, O(50M) != O(1). Both mean that the function in question is bound by a constant, but which constant is very much a big deal (that's the reason why a lot of times O(n) brute-force algorithms are much faster - because n is small, and for competing O(1) algorithms said constant is huge). The only reason why - in informatics! - the exact constant in O(1) case is not considered important is that it's hard to come up with a convenient universal unit of measurement for algorithmic complexity, so O(1) is supposed to mean "1 in whatever measurement units you want".

Who the hell uses Big O notation "in the context of ordinary language"?... I'm not seeing a lot of hands

Uh... no. The O's argument is the upper bound function, in this case, a constant 50 million. O(0) would mean "for free" ("bounded by zero from above").

@Im_CIA Just for the 0.1% chance that you weren't joking: yt-dlp can rip auto-generated subtitles, and those are pretty good (as long as the speech is intelligible, and in this particular video it is)

...aaand apparantly "here" meant YouTube "community" page which I keep forgetting exists, while this very post was just a copypaste from there that nobody bothered to check. Oh well.

The best multiplayer FPS maps I've seen were in Unreal Tournament (a.k.a. UT99). Their creators somehow managed to make them both great as a shooting gallery and as a believable place. Fetid looked and felt like a functioning sewer while being an impeccably polished deathmatch map, Condemned looked and felt like an actual urban slum while being an impeccably polished domination map, HiSpeed looked and felt like an actual train while being an impeccably polished assault map, and so on. If making a great FPS map is like acing a physics exam, then making a great FPS map which also looks and feels like an actual place is like acing a physics exam while answering your question in rhymed verses.
