Sure, some computer people live in bubble. But the idea that humanities professors are going to help change that instead of making them even more deluded I think is wrong. The humanities are currently a toxic breeding ground for pro statist, pro racist and pro sexist ideas. Only since their sexist and racist views express the kind of sexism and racism that government types approve of, it gets promoted as being "humanitarian"

The last thing programmers need to do is get involved with people who "work" in the social "sciences". These people are the most useless and deluded fools on earth. We need to absolutely defund these people and remove them from all public institutions wherever possible.

This guy is overreacting. He didn't fail that badly, he managed to create something that sold hundreds of copies. He said his experience was "soul crushing" and that being an indie dev is some hopeless thing now, yet you got a decent outcome for only a few months work and only a few thousand dollars spent. Just keep hammering out small games, only try to add something slightly unique to each one, nothing complicated, but enough that it would catch the attention of simple minded people enough that they would spend a few dollars for a novelty approach. People bashing the pixel art angle are very very stupid. People LOVE that stuff. The people who post here are generally smart and have high level tastes, which isn't your audience, and it doesn't need to be. You aren't gunning for critic approval or the next hot thing. You must realize that there are millions of people with questionable taste that want to be given the same tropes over and over again. You just need a slightly more novelty approach. You have a good thing going here, with a little tweaking you likely can make enough to survive full time in your country. Get a job for a while and figure out how you can bang out more of these types of games which take a few months to develop. Its probably good to ignore most of the negative advice you are getting here as well. Do not fall into feelings of hopelessness when you almost fulfilled your goal. You will get better which each successive project.

Computers are about control and wanting to return to the old days of aiding the power user has nothing to do with nostalgia.

I agree with this guy that having to use a mouse is often a chore and inefficient. Google search used to have a feature where you could hit tab after a search and it would auto select the results in order, but that seems to be gone. We need more features like that. Keyboard control supremacy will come back, it is inevitable.

The futurism this guy pushes seems like trolling. He is a really smart engineer and has to know what he says is hugely exaggerated. He is just making stuff up.

It makes sense that he would shill for 'smart' cities because that implies expanding the 24/7 surveillance state.

Has anyone ever actually been bothered by having an audio jack? Having to plug in an adapter is not futuristic, its annoying.

These losers that lost the battle of ideas really want to push a message that anything that goes against their narrative and interests automatically implies evil, criminality and debauchery. Nobody cares if people in Russia did things to influence US culture. People from different countries can speak to one another and exchange ideas. The only people who oppose this are authoritarians that want to shut down the discourse. All sides push propaganda, who cares if it comes from Russia? Why specifically is it "sabotage" and "meddling" when it comes from Russia? We are talking about internet ads that push a certain kind of ideology, not criminal acts. Hilary Clinton lost because she ran one of the most embarrassingly awful and out of touch election campaigns of all time. Even if Russia did push lies and manipulations, if it resulted in denying that terrible cow the presidency then ultimately it is still a good thing. The US should be easing sanctions on them because of this, not constantly berating them in the media.

Any person or group that manages to avoid paying taxes should be celebrated. The solution to this "problem" should not be that the wealthy pay more taxes, but that nobody should have to pay taxes since it is blatant theft that funds incompetent and evil people. Nothing that the government does is good. All money that goes to the government is either wasted or spent in ways that make society objectively worse. All functions of government can be replaced and improved by a free market system.

There should be a huge backlash because of this. Make sure all people involved are fired and have no ability to govern anything public ever again.

Mobile is not a major threat to desktops, they serve different purposes. People who have desktop PCs aren't getting rid of them because they bought a phone or tablet. Even though Microsoft has questionable practices they still have the best desktop OS. This is clickbait trash journalism.

a Basket of Figs and a Letter, did by the way eat up a great part of his Carriage, conveying the remainder unto the Perfon to whom he was di- rected, who when he had read the Letter, and not finding the quantity of Figs anfwerable to what was there fpoken of, he accufes the Slave of eating them, telling him what the Letter faid againft him. But the In- dian (notwithftanding this proof) did confidently abjure the Fa&, curling the Paper, as being a falfe and lying Witnefs. After this, being lent again with the like Carriage, and a Letter expreffing the juft number of Figs that were to be delivered, he did again, according to his former Pra- ctice, devour a great part of them by the way.

This is a non-issue, friend. Fake news is any news that goes against our benevolent allies at Google, the SPLC, the ADL.. basically groups that never have any bias or self-interest. We can let great guys like Mark Zuckerberg oversee which information we need to know on all levels. We are in good hands!
