Unfortunately there are an entire stable of Disney-funded Maker Studio-groomed content creators willing to make the same videos. YouTube talent truly is a dime a dozen.

Instagram has caught way up to Snapchat with kids IMO. Millennials aren't looking down on Instagram the same way they look down on Facebook, although I do see the potential as long as Instagram keeps messing around with the timelines a

Just wondering: Have you looked into the Echo Show or Spot? Also, my theory is this story is coming out intentionally ahead of CES where Google will likely show a similar product to both this "Portal" thing and Amazon's Echo

I don’t see yet how this can possibly be more than a clone of the Echo Show, but twice as expensive and with Facebook-y features. I don’t spot anything particularly significant in this article that differentiates it — even the leaked image

Yes, almost all of the technology in Vive is originally Valve research. The lighthouses, headset prototype, and controllers were all being demoed (in 3D printed/hacked hardware) at their Bellevue offices in ~2015, or maybe earlier, I f

I don't see the scales to be tipped as heavily as you're suggesting. Spotify alone can make or break an artist, even a "Big 3" one. If you want listenership, you absolutely need to be on Youtube, Apple or Spotify (or a

Well, lets also not forget that Spotify has been slowly steering itself from a pure "music playback tool" to a "music discovery tool", and a trusted one at that. They are heavily promoting things like Discover Weekly,

This is essentially what UV unwrapping is. Seems like a pretty neat auto-UV layout algo... Are people in the Blender community using this plugin for texturing game assets? Does it work well with high poly models?
