How does it work with N people ? Do I see other with Vive or hololens on their head ? or the head is actually "reconstructed", and in that case, the eyes are not tracked ?

http://www.nvidia.com/object/nvlink.html - NVIDIA® NVLink™ is a high-bandwidth, energy-efficient interconnect that enables ultra-fast communication between the CPU and GPU, and between GPUs.

And a big on the PowerPC roadmap http://www.nextplatform.com/2016/04/07/ibm-unfolds-power-chi... "With NVLink, multiple GPUs can be linked by 20 GB/sec links (bi-directional at that speed) to each other or to the Power8 processor so they can share data more rapidly than is possible over PCI-Express 3.0 peripheral links. (Those PCI-Express links top out at 16 GB/sec and, unlike NVLink, they cannot be aggregated to boost the bandwidth between two devices.)"

> the Shapir/Worf hypothesis: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linguistic_relativity That's an interesting point, but on the other hand I'm still not convinced that this means that having a lot of distinct languages is "better". While on the other hand, there would be clear benefits to everyone speaking the same language or having at least one common language.

Would the computer world be "better" if anyone standardize on one single programming language (e.g. java) or is it "better" that different languages are there, ( dartmouth basic , javascript, python, lisp, haskell or perl) so you can code differently ?

As for the universal language, Esperanto tried: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Esperanto a nice documentary about it: http://esperantodocumentary.com/en/about-the-film
