I’m confused about the hate towards Valve since they have created the steam marketplace where you can sell and buy in-game items, to literally address one of the main points of this article. The problem is that Rocket League isn’t using thi

This happens with teams of humans as well. Without a formal leader, teams will naturally have one (or more) leaders emerge. The ideal team doesn’t need leadership and consists of mostly self-sufficient members, but the de jure leader merely

There’s not even evidence for reincarnation “on Earth” in the Bible anyways so not sure what the OP is going on about. I do think it is a useful exercise to imagine yourself in the future though. It’s much easier when you have children to b

I don't believe giving money to poor people will make them lazier, nor do I believe we should give free money to rich people. Ultimately, they want to give money to people that need it and will put it to good use (for whose definition

The problem isn't really people quitting actually because like you said, that could be good. It's more like the business can't pay to stay open because there aren't enough customers to cover the variable costs. So now th

I'm not saying you're wrong when I say consider the following: if every individual had a bunch of free money and decided to not work, then the next day they drive to the store and there is no one working... what do they do? Didn&#

I find this to be the most disturbing part. I have done a substantial amount of game development myself on the side, it's how I got into programming originally ~15 years ago. I say that because I find it demotivating sometimes to work

Thanks for all your hard work Jeremy. In Cleveland, we are running a study group with about 30 people on the 2018 version of the course. Because of logistics, we aren't planning on rescheduling to match the new course, but its still n
