    It’s actually because the thing that makes you make those faces is the acceleration, not the speed.

    All three reference frames shown are accelerated, non inertial frames. But the first two have “fictitious” centrifugal accelerations somewhere around 0.5-2.5 g. The third frame has a detectable centrifugal acceleration, but it’s like 0.003 g or something, and can be lumped in with gravity for many types of problems.

    Instead the story is that the source engine was located in the “Src” directory in their Visual Source Safe. And the Half Life 1 engine was in a separate branch named GoldSrc because it was about to ship real soon, and they needed to keep changes to a minimum.
