I agree. We focused on the controller use case as it made for a simpler API, but it was always my interest to make it more generalized. Just perhaps through a different product that was more open and generalized. Things like having your pho

I feel that zeal occasionally, but smart phones and having a portable computer on you at all times probably deserves that award. But why do we have to play favorites?! I love all tech children equally. Especially when they combine into Mobi

I have the Gear VR and the DK2. I think mobile VR is going to take off just as fast as a category than desktop VR. I personally find it being wireless/portable to be worth the loss of positional tracking. I'm sure they'll get

I think natural walking is more likely to take off. Why abstract it when you can just walk. Sure there will be issues with running out of real world space. But that can probably be solved via some sort of body based gesture. I say this, aft

As someone who's in their late 30s and has accomplished a lot, I can agree with the experienced dev above's attitude. But also having interviewed a lot of candidates at scale much of these tests are just filtering tests to reduce

I don't agree with the assertion that listing filters out candidates on the low end. I think many dillusuonal, overly ambitious, and financially desperate under qualified candidates apply hard for salaries way above their last/cur

Looks awesome #astroboys. ps. I'm the founder of Emotely, where I toyed around with a similar approach but then ended up focusing on game controllers instead. Early concept video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NE8-Tnt

It's not very clear at all what the vision is and how this is supposed to be used. I can make guesses, but some clarity would be great if any of the Google people involved are in this thread.
