Maybe I'm crazy but I'm a solo founder (I have a great support system of other founders) and I rarely find myself depressed. At times I'm angry at myself for decisions I've made but hindsight is 20:20.

@bane is right. I had similar experiences. Is it something you can get over? Sure. Is it something you want to get over? Maybe not. I still feel "numb" in day to day life.

I used ubuntu for a long time... This has all gone way to far. Gnome was great, I even installed it over unity. Linux isn't about "convergence". I'll stick with Fedora for now, thanks.

I realize the game industry won't go away overnight but individual companies will always come and go. The same plan would have been equally plausible with CD stores in the 90's.

I couldn't agree more. If you aren't good enough to grow with the company the company isn't good enough for you.
