But all the tropes are lifted straight from 80's action flicks with some irony thrown in so it's not surprising that they appear in a lot of these throwbacks.

This is absolutely insane. You're basically getting $0.00000001 USD for cutting your phone battery life significantly.

I don't think it's Silicon Valleys fault. I see the same philosophy in every industry in every city in the US.

Living in the midwest, when you're 10 minutes outside of a major city, you're lucky to get spoty 3G. After 20 minutes you're lucky to get any signal.

Agreed, I was expecting this to be about late night/weekend calls of "everythings broken! help!". I don't know how you'd say you charge extra for normal office hours.

Retired/on a permanent vacation but still programming as a semi-serious hobby.

I was a huge fan of Loom too. There really aren't that many original and creative worlds in games and Loom definitely had one. Planescape Torment is another good example.

There's like 3 cities in the US with pretty good public transportation and they choose to launch in one of those?

And it's actually a nice and solid keyboard with mechanical switches. This looks like a basic flimsy $10 keyboard in quality.

It's been "next gen" for decades. It's just a terribly inefficient brute-force approach to lighting a scene. I don't think it'll ever be viable for real-time graphics.

Wallet, pens, a notebook. Got it. I don't really get the point, is it the hipster obsession with expensive "artisan" brands?

I don't think they've really added that many new features(visible to users) to Chrome. I've been using it since it came out and it still looks the same and I use the same features I used to. Maybe I'm wrong and just missed them since they were added so slowly. I guess the Dev Tools have been improved?

Write your own book and self-publish on Amazon. Set the price at $1990. Buy your own book with company money.

This actually sounds terrible for their customers then! I guess they'll come back as one of those crappy GoDaddy add-ons they try to push on you for five pages before you can finish paying.

Most game investors these days are mostly looking for free to play games that have a business plan beyond selling copies in (digital stores). He's very against that type of games and games as businesses instead of artform in general.
