I can't speak for U.S based founders, but for many foreigners wanting to incorporate in the U.S SVB was the only banking option. Stripe Atlas made SVB their sole banking partner and thousands of foreign founders relied on them for all

I got my introduction to Maya in 1998 at around version 2 if memory serves me right. While it is true that it shipped with some polygon tools they were quite basic and quite subpar when compared to other DCC tools available at the time. I r

Softimage was so ahead of their time and it's such a shame that they ended up being acquired by Autodesk only to kill it a few years later.

Is the plantation located somewhere with nice views? If so you might be better off turning it into a bed and breakfast and offering guided/tasting tours. Many local coffee farmers here in Colombia have opted for this option as simply &

I agree 100%. I'm not expert on the subject, but their economy hasn't been doing all that great as of late and deep reforms are definitely needed!

That's because you assume that electronics cost the same everywhere outside the U.S but that is certainly not the case. In fact, Brazil is notorious for being protective of their own localindustry and as a result iPhones and other gadg

Most of them left a few years after being acquired by Microsoft to start another company named Wideload Games which was later acquired by Disney. By this point I'd be surprised if anyone from the original core team is still at Bungie.

It's really hard raising a million dollars outside Silicon Valley and this first cohort is aimed at European based startups only. European investors are notorious for being risk-averse and their investment terms are laughable at best.
