To create a rich 3D world, you need to model and texture a LOT of objects. Usually, this means hiring an army of 3D modelers and texture artists and having them do that all day for three years. Paying them needs a big budget. To create a ri

Almost all the interesting games being made nowadays are indie games, and as you say most indie game makers don't have the budget for 3D modelers. Not all of them necessarily want this effect, but I'd still say that this could hav

I liked the interview, but I didn't like the article interpreting it. In particular, they bash the X of Y pattern, but Tesla is the Apple of cars. No X of Y moniker is ever perfectly accurate, but that one is close enough to give someb

Rosberg was losing 1.7 seconds a lap because of rubber in his front wing, and he started the race on tyres that has done two runs in qualifying. It is the general consensus that Red Bull do have a performance advantage, but it's nowher

Yes, of course, but I and everybody I talk to find it incredibly obnoxious that it ignores the space.

Almost all phase 2 startups will be worth zero, or nearly zero. Some will be worth $BIGNUM. If you invest in the latter, you will be rich irrespective of whether you invested at a valuation of $BIGNUM/100 or $BIGNUM/200. If you in

Seems to me like the bottom two are not really disagreements. For the second to last, if they gave you terms, you'd invest, right? For the last, you presumably aren't deciding whether to meet with them based on the deck; it's

I should point out that it doesn't matter how long it takes to downshift as long as you're in the right gear by the time you start turning.

One of the most common failures of understanding I come across when people first start trying to use git is that there are two dimensions of parallelism: between branches in one repo, and between repos. This can't address that, as I un

Even with the softest suspension, you usually have to spin out and catch a wheel rim on a curb to get a car to roll over, unless you have really high center of mass (like some non-crossover SUV's, like the 1990s Jeep Grand Cherokee).

It definitely isn't easier to raise money than to get a job. People just expect it to be nigh-impossible to raise money, and that everybody deserves a job, because that's how it used to be. Also, there is a massive demand for code that work

Trying to maximize your share of individual deals causes you to lose the best deals. This is because a) the best deals are often expensive, and b) maximizing your share empirically causes people to consider you a dick, and people with reput

Why not a) put stuff you've done up on the web so people can see that it's cool and doesn't suck; b) email random cool places you'd like to work (e.g. startups) c) practice interviewing ?

It might be true, though, that there is a large equivalence class of companies that can trade CEO's well, and interesting consumer tech companies are just not in that equivalence class. It seems like Coke and Levi Strauss could trade, for e
