Can you cite any statute that says this is illegal?

So very impressive if you want to type exactly what they recommend in the demo app. And what's the copyright on that auto completed code?

This is very true. Every time I talk to my game industry friends I just shudder at how exploited they are.

Funny while they work themselves to death I'm just sitting here barely working by putting a little forethought, planning, and efficiency in the mix. Seems like the amount I work drops by 25% and my pay goes up by 25% a year.

Definitely what someone who's business is making money off of them would suggest

I guess they're kicking Hearthstone off of Twitch

I think this really means that while coding is hard it is the fun thing, it is a hard thing that is fun to do and easily can lead to flow states which we interpret as "fun". That's great, as you advance in your career though

Boring is great. Means we've reached the trough of disillusion and real use cases can begin to flourish.

Apparently SC realized they can make a lot more money if they never actually released a game. I guess they're big fans of "The Producers".
