Wow, I get frustrated and feel unproductive if my feedback loop is longer than 2-5 SECONDS. This must require a seriously different approach to trial and error exploration

Would rather watch this than 99% of the garbage that qualifies for programming - might actually learn something about physics, chemistry, engineering, etc

I guess my main points were that corporations differ in that their “host” is basically all of society and they must produce things of value or they die, but a union’s “host” is either a single corporation or industry and they do not directl

A reverse corporation of sorts, but with only a single source of revenue. A corporation is a collective that works together to produce something. A union, on the other hand, seeks to extract as much value as is possible/reasonable from

I work as a freelance web dev and typically have a week (or even a month) between contracts to chase that indie game dev dream. It’s a tough juggling act, but it’s better than trying to moonlight

Yeah I think it’s cool that extremely powerful game engines are available for free to developers. There are many a reason why EA and others are taking a big hit, but the swell of really good games being produced by those 2-3 person teams ha

I’m glad to hear that seeing as “big indie” is where all the best gameplay innovation tends to come from. Many AAA titles are actually quite dull and repetitive affairs. They get wrapped in a super pretty and eye candy laden veneer so you d

Why do you think it’s even a remotely good idea to tell people when, where, and how they spend their time and energy?

Hard, yes, but you should start a business paying people developer salaries to load and unload boxes and we will see how well that works out for you. Also that job is soon to be an anachronism - robots are perfectly suited to replace humans

Then they should seek alternatives. Electing to not participate in a voluntary agreement is always an option.

Its a voluntary agreement between two parties - they should be able to make whatever deal they want as long as both parties are amenable. If not amenable, go elsewhere.

Right?? So many commenters are acting as if these drivers are somehow obligated to work there. Just. Go. Elsewhere. You are not entitled to the perfect job simply because you are alive. What the hell happened to personally responsibility&#x

It’s a good thing there is more than one organized team of management to pick from! Gainful employment is not a right, it’s a voluntary agreement by both parties. Vote with your feet and go elsewhere... they will feel the crunch.

I operated as an LLC for 3 years and then switched to an s-Corp at the recommendation of an accountant I stared using to do my books and taxes. It’s really worked out well and I think it’s the better way to go.

I do not buy that inadequate preparation is the reason some people aren’t able to handle college. Sounds very naive and idealistic. Some people are simply not intelligent and/or disciplined enough to handle the courses and never would
