yea but if you got 50 inquiries from random people on the Internet interested in your product would you expect all or even most of them to be in the exact format firstname.lastname@gmail? I'd expect most or even all of them to be from

I'm mostly commenting on acceleration in gaming. The acceleration alone doesn't bother me for productivity. However, for gaming it doesn't matter what platform you are on acceleration sucks. Technically a subjective opinion b

I'm not an intern. I'm also well aware of what's happening.

I understand what it means. There's an option in CS and it doesn't seem to actually do anything on Mac OS. Its one of the most popular games ever created and unlike many AAA devs Valve is still actually really good at what they do

It also depends on where you live. Some places the price disparity might be higher than others. Also if you're talking about dollar menu stuff or the stuff close to it, its about 1/3 the size of the burgers included in fast food m

Its about more than the raw numbers too. If you make 9600 a month as an intern and you get offered a job you are certainly going to be offered more than you made as an intern. However, if you make 4800 as an intern there probably isn't

I really like a lot about MacOS but unfortunately I didn't get a chance to ever use it until 2014 so I wasn't able to experience that. I'd get rid of my Windows computer in an instant if it wasn't for the poor support Ma

It used to be 3-5x more than fast food. A burger with a meal + a drink @ Wendys is like $8+. The price of fast food has risen quite a bit over the years. I can get a burger and fries that's 10x better at Friendly's, Ruby Tuesday&#

Getting rid of Mac OS's acceleration isn't simply a matter of clicking "raw input" in a game's options. Even if you use the command line to actually disable it for some reason the mouse still feels off. If you googl

If you're talking about software jobs, 9600 for an internship is way above average and now that its 4800 its below average so that's not a good chunk of change.

Everyone's talking about the slower hardware. IMO the biggest hurdle to gaming is Mac OS's baked in mouse acceleration and whatever else makes 100% of mice feel absolutely terrible on a Mac. Even the magic mouse feels janky. I fol

Unrelated to your comment here but a while back you mentioned you liked some Space Cadet keycaps I had, but they are usually only available via a group buy. There's another one going on right now for a set that looks the same but comes

I'd like to eventually learn to make a simple 3d engine suitable for a retro FPS. However, to start with I'd like to learn how to make 2d engines for side scrolling or isometric action games. Basically, game dev is a hobby for me

Are there any good ones that exist? I'm a security analyst and I frequently work with large text files, 200MB-1GB and the text editors I've tried are incredibly slow. A lot of the time I can use grep and other command-line tools t

There are probably plenty of liars out there, but I think part of the problem may be the fact that there are a lot of people out there that need a proper service dog but can't afford one. PTSD seems to be a big market for service dogs.
