Okay, I really need to spend a bit more time before I'd feel comfortable doing that but I'll definitely take your advice to advertise it sooner rather than later.

The static site is already up, but I don't get why I'd buy ads before creating an actual product to show. I guess you can see a YouTube video of my prototype on the static site ?

Unless you're already known in your industry investors aren't exactly lining up to write checks. For my current passion project, a video game , I plan on dumping between 10 to 20k in before trying to pitch it to publishers. When t

You can enjoy coffee without grinding your own beans. I personally find lower level programing to be frustrating and difficult. I've built an amazing career with JavaScript and C# primarily. My hobbyist projects use C# , JS and Flutter

True story , when Swift was announced I started cheering so loudly in the office I had to be told to calm down. I hate objective C with a passion. It's like some archaic language of a bygone era forced to run on a cell phone

Would it be theoretically possible, to end up using this as sort of a scripting language for rust or whatever. I'm imagining Deno somehow getting complied down to Rust and then running at Rust speed. I basically want low level performa

Does this offer a speed increase vs running the the code directly using $ deno test.js ( not sure what the exact command is )

You still have to legally file taxes for the LLC and stuff. Feels a bit silly if I'm ultimately not planing on making money

For your game did you open an LLC to publish it. I'm debating doing that now, but it comes off as a ton of work where I don't particularly think I'll make money .

Not really possible for many of us as we don't have the rights to distribute all the code. Wouldn't make much sense from a commercial pov

Or Unity Linux is less stable ? Like if y'all really want I can upload the Linux build and make it clear it's not going to work as well. I can't support every single distro after all
613.
by offtop5 6y ago
Unity actually exports Linux binaries so most developers could do Linux natively. The issue ends up being support cost vs sales. If 1% of your fan base runs Ubuntu, but they're 50% of your big reports, it's cheaper to not worry ab

If I recall correctly she started her speech with ' I've probably never been though what you have'. I make sure to never repeat this crap to other people. In hindsight the eviction did get me out of a very bad home life, stil

Easily the worst time of my life was during a 1 year eviction. I even dated a girl for a brief period who told me the ' you can always have a good attitude' thing. Years later when a met someone else struggling to find safe housin

Give a 100xer a boss who berates him for not writing enough comments and s/he is no longer a 100xer. If anything I've seen more people get in trouble just for being jerks, you can do very well as a bad developer you just can'

If you ever view all the toxic stuff flows to the top. I found myself getting really angry needlessly and had to delete my account. I'll browse subs like Unity though.

I'll venture to say 100xers don't exist. If your in a team which helps you succeed you'll perform better. I've been very good at leaving jobs where I don't feel like I'm a good fit. On my previous team I spent

Going to a concert or a movie has worked exceptionally well for me. You have a joint experience to reflect on and something to look forward to beforehand.

I use Git LFS with my Unity projects. Other systems exist, like Plastic SCM, but their much much harder to use. I had issues with a contractor who couldn't figure it out and it partially lead to us abandoning that version of the projec

If you can buy it cash , go for it. I'm talking about the folks who finance cars they have no real capacity to afford. They aren't taking these cars to the track.

Not gonna lie. I'm very disappointed I can't sync my Stadia controller to my PC via bluetooth. Google gave out Stadia pros, but it's such a horrible idea ( instead of Xbox Game pass stadia forces you to buy additional games).

Bootstrapping is fun until you can't make payroll. If your goal is an exit, and you can raise this much, why not.

Look at the use cases. Discord is very much known for people talking about video games , not much else. Slack started as an internal business tool and it remains so.
