Very true. It's very difficult when your self-criticism turns into self-hatred. It's the merging of identities, you can no longer separate yourself as a person from your creations. There's this sense of clinging too tightly t

I believe this is where the highly self-critical perspective has its roots. From the outside, it looks like a bunch of compliment baiting, but actually it seems to be a necessary. Without that intense scrutiny from yourself, how are you sup

I haven't experienced much help in the research department. That might become a wild goose chase if you're not careful. For creative writing (this isn't limited to stories!) or slightly more contextual boilerplate, I love it.

Part of the problem for desktop browsers (except for power users) is that they've never opened the settings option, not once. They might have opened Mac's system preferences or Windows Settings app but other than that they have no

Yes exactly! You give yourself a new perspective to solve the problem. If you have ever seen a professional digital artist draw, you'll notice them flip the canvas repeatedly. You might think they're crazy how much they flip it, b

You can get a taste of this at home, for anyone else wanting to experience a new perspective. Find a nice photo of a person, probably a 3/4 body shot (album covers are great too), black and white helps but color is just fine too. Flip

I agree, but not with the conclusion. I don't think a Nadella is what they need. He's far too much of a stabilizer, which makes sense for Microsoft given their incredibly rocky years. This archetype is also what Pichai is trying t

You might need to seek out more routine information from successful people. See Mark Cuban, Alexis Ohanian, Rihanna, Mark Zuckerberg, etc. All of them wake up around the ~7-9AM timeframe rather than the super early ones aiming for ~3-5AM. T

There are only a certain amount of hours in a day that you can be actively chasing something. Your energy depletes, places close, sun goes down. So it doesn't matter if you get up at 4AM or at 10AM, what matters is the active hours you

Yes exactly, the willingness to wait. But we're not talking about waiting, we're talking about taking it day by day by focusing on what you can do during that day to the best of your abilities. Hence, patience is irrelevant, if an

Patience is the wrong aspect here. What you need isn't patience, it's a reminder that this is a long process. If all you can muster is 20 minutes per day, that still adds up hugely. No patience required. Although of course, you im

Consoles are great devices, sure. If you spent over 2k on an over the top monitor in 2015, then you were being silly because even top of the line GPUs weren't hitting 1440 at a stable rate. We're not talking about normal tasks, if

Ray tracing IS the logical increment the industry has decided on though. So again, you're spending $2000 to miss out on what the industry has decided on is the next logical step, only to have to spend another ~$500 for whatever upgrade

This is misleading. For nearly $2000, you better be getting 4K with ray tracing (max settings), AKA, a top of the line device. 1440p/144 is midrange now. Which that $1865 one does not provide. Even before ray tracing, most games strugg

The lessons to be learned about Cyberpunk 2077 have very little to do with quality of devs. Instead it has everything to do with mismanaged timelines, misaligned expectations, marketing based on a game that doesn't even exist, securing

Half of the reason I still have a twitter is for this very reason. Highly intelligent people exhibiting some of the most petty behavior. It's a great reminder, of many things, including how tribal we still are in the worst ways.

It's not purely about the recession. If it was, they would halt hiring, keep talent, trim executive bonuses, and be precise about where dead weight exists. Not 5%+ layoffs of major teams and roles. You see other industries, they'r
