  About 10 years ago Steve seemed really on the level of someone like Joel regarding software development and general life advice. Now it seems Steve is all crazy stuff.

    I disagree. I don't believe Pavlina has the track record of Joel regarding software development. His life advice at that time was "stop sleeping, you'll do more and let's see how far we can ride that secret thing" while claiming being telepathic and talking to birds. Now I wouldn't be surprised if Steve made way more money than Joel.

      These seem to already be the crazy days. I remember when he was selling games way before any "indie games", even before Bejewled if I remember correctly. I also thought regarding sleep, that he woke up every morning at the same time, and went to bed when he was tired.

        He does. But for 6 months, he just took a 20 minute nap every 4 hours (no 'core' sleep).
