daheza··on Ask HN: What's your #1 pain point when asking for a raise?
I work 60 hours a week with 2 weeks vacation a year. I am also not highly paid. I would love to work at a place that just required the normal 40 hours a week.
daheza··on Apple’s declining software quality
I haven't read much about Jobs but I wonder how he achieved the perfection in his product. Force the teams to work overtime to correct the bugs? Did he double the QA size in order to catch all these bugs? Did he demand that all code checked in must be at incredibly high standards, thus forcing the devs to QA more of their own code?
daheza··on Tricks That Make Virtual Reality Feel Real
I had a similar feeling when doing the DK2 Desk demo. I was doing the usual looking around then reached out to touch the virtual desk. I had forgotten how close I was to my real desk so when I touched the desk virtually I touch my real desk. This flipped something in my brain, no way could I be touching a virtual desk. It was a really incredible experience.
daheza··on Study: Banning E-Cigarette Sales to Minors Spurs Conventional Smoking
Seems to me like it would be similar to what a fog machine produces. Looks like there have been some studies on it https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fog_machine#Adverse_health_eff...
daheza··on How eSports are saving the PC industry
I agree with you about the steam link. It now allows me to play couch co-op games in the living room without having to drag my computer into the living room. The steam controller however does not seem to have as much use. I tried using it on several games in my library and was not satisfied with the amount of control I got. A wireless keyboard and mouse could give me a better experience.

Sometimes these streamers are even buying a second box and using a capture card to send the video to their streaming PC.

daheza··on Ask HN: What tech blogs, podcasts do you follow outside of HN?
In your opinion if I were to start listening to nodeup should I start from the beginning. Node changes all the time and I feel like if I start on episode 1 I could be potentially learning outdated tech. If so what episode do you recommend starting on?
daheza··on A Month Designing in VR
"Photoshop → CINEMA 4d → Unity → code".

I have never worked on a 3D project before, so I guess I never considered that you would start off a 3D design in a 2D platform such as photoshop.

daheza··on Mattermost: Open-source, on-premises, Slack alternative
Have you noticed any other development differences between web and game companies? This would make a great blog post.
daheza··on How is Javascript used within the Spotify desktop application?
As someone who switches often between the mac and windows version this kills me. The mac version will continue after closing but the pc version just cuts the music completely.

Nice site, it would be cool to add a section for free 3d model sites.

My work does not even bother to install the certificate on the individual machines. I get unsigned cert errors all day long.

Perhaps coincidentally I received an unknown charge from iTunes at 1:13am. Since I do not remember making this purchase I would really like to see what was purchased. Unfortunately the store is down.
daheza··on Are programmers in the Bay Area the new working class?
I am curious about how a programmer would skip programming and go into medicine, law, or finance. Does this entail going back and getting another degree?

Failed for me as well, decided to just put the credit card in.
daheza··on VR and Steam days
If I know a bit of C++ and a lot of Web Languages, where would be the best place to get more information about VR Programming? For these games they are developing what language are they written in? What kind of software are they using to create 3D models ? Are they all using Unity?
