Why don't you present a message asking users if they want to have the auto save feature or not? If they want, they need to enable a security option. Otherwise, they can play anyway even if scared by such option.

I had more simple problems with Hotmail. I had many cases where people sent me mails to Yahoo and Gmail accounts and if they came from Hotmail mail addresses, they just didn't reach me at all. Some Hotmail users I knew had difficulties even

This is quite impressive! An only usability detail: why do you need all users to approve access to the file system, if that functionality is only required for saving games? I'm sure most users will be scared by that banner.

This is great advice, thank you. An only extra question... being a single person means that I can't do more than one or two development projects at once, but at many times clients ask me to (and I have to tell them I can't, I'm already busy

I'm not sure I understand. Suppose the mind throws a thousand dices. We measure two possible events: if there is at least a dice with a 1 on it, and if all dices have a 1 on it. There are 6^1000 possible conscious minds. We call Lefty to th

I'm currently using my name plus a descriptive word (say "Smith Software" or "Graham Tech"), and if I think about it, what I'm doing most is contract work myself (along with some consulting). Do you find it advisable?

But... Righty could ask why his world is unreasonable, but actually, being Righty is very improbable, so if we find the world to be actually very reasonable, it's because it's more probable to be Lefty than to be Right. Whether if Lefty and

How do you advertise yourself for contract work? Do you have a one person company, or you are just a contractor? While both things may in the end mean more or less the same, their perception might be different and you could be able to get p

But I'm conscious of only one of only being Lefty, or not? If that's true, then for me at least, that behaves like a separate timeline of all others. That's what I meant in the post above: we are only conscious on what happens on a very rea

I don't know much about this, but wouldn't it be a lot more probable to be in a world of those many where the probabilities of events are distributed in a reasonable way, than to be in another world where the distribution of probabilities i

Yes, I read the general advice, but I was looking for some specific details, if you think there could be anything that is useful other than what is mentioned on that page.

Thanks for your reply. What I found useful whenever I could was setting rates per hour or per time unit (say, month) of development time, in large projects no one can really estimate how much time they will take to finish (for example, thes

I wish it was not a buzzword, but that more people used it. I don't know of any other way to explain what I do, why I do it, and how I do it in just a simpler way than by saying "solopreneur". I'm a little entrepreneur, but not interested i
