When I was a coder in my 20s, one of my co-workers came back from some conference with a glossy flyer for a new game company startup. It had a lineup of people in various costumes: cowboy, astronaut, soldier. It said something like, "We're looking for superstar developers to create the next level in gaming. If that's you, come join us."
I sure wish I had paid more attention to that flyer for the fledgling Electronic Arts :-)
- tough 4y agoLol funny how EA was after 10x developers a while back already. Gaming companies have fame to exploit coders though, probably EA stock makes it worth it if you were in it tho
- gcanyon 4y agoYep, exactly -- I had life emergencies that somewhat excuse my lack of foresight, but I can't help but think my life would be very different if I had joined EA back in...1982?
