The main question for any investment, ever, should be: you have some amount of money...what will net you the highest return on that money. You can modify this with considerations for risk and diversification, but the name of the game is alw

I was going to comment similarly. Unless Unity has a competitive answer to Lumen + Nanite, they're fucked out of the hyper realistic pipeline. They need to come up with an answer to those or double down on their actual strengths for in

I think that the individualist framework is the correct one, and I tend to think that communitarian emphasis leads to all sorts of erosion of identity (among other issues). What I mean to say, in regards to friendship, is that within an ind

I've always found it weird how little people prioritize life choices around their friends. Proximity/accessibility of friends is probably the single greatest priority I have when deciding where to live. I'm about to have my f

The idea of a free and open Internet should undergird any individual conflict.

If you are looking for realism, the single best advice I can give is that you need to practice drawing what you see vs what you think you see. Humans think in terms of icons and memes, but resist the urge. When you see a nose on a face, you

Gonna go out on a limb (hah) and guess that his winning strategy 9/10 times was "squeeze through thing you didn't think he could squeeze through."

The best downside that I've heard, at least for doing this automatically, is that not all users have cheap/available upload bandwidth. As long as you're able to opt in as a seeder, it's great.

Nobody wants them to spend energy on the technical side, we want them to use an existing engine like Unreal.

This is a very stupid comment, and I will take it to be us finishing what was already a pointless conversation.

You keep referring to my entitlements as if I've done anything other than state my disinterest in the product changes being proposed.

So my options are switching between streaming platforms or having Rogan's podcast censored down to the guests you and Neil Young like? I don't love my options.
