I also was a participant. It was pretty cool. I did a wireshark and they are using Google's QUIC protocol.
In my experience the game would drop graphics before I would experience input lag. There were a handful of times that I did experience input lag. This was on a wired connection 100mbs down 20mbs up through Xfinity.
I did notice in the Google demo, that when the person was using the game pad, he experienced input lag when he was trying to jump up on top of that steeple on top of the building.
I have worked in the Biotech industry and worked with both the FDA and CDC.
The CDC and FDA have separate missions. The CDC tries to manage diseases once local authorities become overwhelmed. They maintain the Strategic National Stockpile. The SNS is a stockpile of different drugs, not enough for everyone, but enough to hopefully contain an outbreak. Our particular vaccine was FDA approved, and purchased for the SNS. The CDC also may purchase drugs that have not yet been FDA approved (depending on the political climate).
The FDA is the regulatory agency that polices, in this article's case, drugs. They monitor the clinical trials, and manufacturing process of the drugs (gmp-good manufacturing process). The FDA makes sure that drug companies do not exaggerate the efficacy of their products.
So it is not really that surprising that an agency that monitors and manages diseases would recommend drugs, while the agency that monitors and manages drugs would point to drug efficacy first.
Michigan use to require a purchase permit for pistols. You had to go to the Michigan State Police, take a little quiz, and they would issue you a purchase permit. The permit had an expiration date. You bought the pistol with the permit and then had to take the pistol back to the police station for a safety check.
I was able to put together a stripped lower receiver with the lower parts kit in one hour. My background in firearms is from owning a pistol and a 22 magnum bolt action rifle.
It is trivial to put together a lower receiver. You can do it with a hammer and a roll pin punch (and you really don't need the punch).
There are numerous vids on how to assemble a lower receiver and how to mill out an 80%. You could even buy a polymer and carve it out with a knife, if you felt so inclined to do so.
