In aoc theres lag based on each player's connection to the gaming client (or smth like that) which means the commands occur in the game only after the delay caused by lag. This lag can be measured by each players ping.
Considering the many similarities between computer processing protocols and the human nervous system, it only makes sense that lag exists in real life as it does in aoc, right? For example, you're watching some visual scene, say a bird chirping, but just like it takes time for the computer to connect to the gaming client, it takes time for the sensation of light to hit the retina and travel thru the optic nerve to the visual cortex and continue the pathway until you recieve the perception of sight, and seeing the bird chirping. But what this means is that the bird has finished chirping some number of milliseconds before you perceive, yes the time is basically negligible but its still kinda interesting
In aoc you can increase the quality of your hardware, get a better internet connection, and remove any viruses you may have picked up to improve your ping and reduce your lag... In life what would the correlate be? Id imagine that lag would increase probly due to the natural processes of aging- brain cells dying causing functions to occur on other pathways and overloading them, or maybe a few too many times huffing nitric oxide 11 idk
And then theres this talk ab how jordan and viper have a natural advantage over chris and daut since theyre younger and their mental hardware is presumably less decayed, i think the amount of decay that would occur in tr brain over the course of ages 21-28 could be a contributing factor to overall skill level favoring viper and jordan BUT def not the foremost factor. The most prominent factor could be anything from amount of time per day to practice, to the amount of importance one places on fun and gaming activities in one's life at ages 21 vs 28, to just ab anything, kind of off topic here but a pretty interesting topic to me nonetheless, any other opinions on comparing aoc lag to real life lag? I clearly know more ab neural networks than computer networks, so a computer science perspective would be interesting to hear
