Grats on the raise. Your response was childish and inappropriate. If your goal is to get PR then that might be a good strategy except now in the Media you still look childish and only a certain portion will think it was appropriate. If your goal is to win this case then little things like that name calling can hurt you and do nothing more than stroke your ego.
This is good advice. I've scaled multiple sites to +3 million registered users and more than 1 million unique visitors with heavy DB usage. This is excellent advice for starting out. Along the way we found areas that could be improved and we were able to move quickly to them because our underlying DB was standard stuff. We knew what areas were breaking down and then fixed them with targeted moves to other DBs and things like memcache. Yes, each DB has a specialty but a good general DB gets you a lot of mileage because those specialty DBs do very little a general DB can't but that is often not true the other way.
You would never start a journey with cloudy destination and of a million miles by asking for a moon rover as your vehicle. As your journey develops you would start looking at other options or options for certain segments. Apps follow similar patterns.
Importantly, the posted version would let you play the game until your software (in the game) was ready to sell and then it would put up a shamer message about how you couldn't make money because everyone was pirating your game.
The burden of proof for being a human piece of sh$t is lower than the legal bar for conviction. Items like "procedural" errors related to evidence that turn heinous crimes into misdemeanors can and should still be considered. This is not a situation where there is subtly to the crime. There is video. That video just couldn't be used in a court. It still happened. It still exists.
The author misses Gladwells premise from go. He said deliberate, not obsessive. His discussion was specifically focused on variance of experience and learning over that time.
An interesting app. I tried using it and it is a far cry from windows remote desktop but it would be fine if you forgot to hit send on something or just needed to look at a doc on a comouter. It handles multi monitor pretty poorly.
I love that flat files are considered less complex, but SQL DBs are bad.... I would love to know under which criteria that is true for the author. Is it "music I listened to last week"?
I didn't say market. I said you need to build a community. You need to find people who want a game like this but can't build it. Then get them to talk to you and you talk to them. They will help spread your idea. Until you get some like minded people you have no idea if you have a market. Once you know you do have some people (and your mom and friends dont count) kick starter will help you reach more people, but kickstarter cant be your first move.
I own gameskinny.com and we cover a lot of kick starters. I will just give you my opinion straight up. Based on your pledges you did not build a community ahead of your kick starter. You have 800 pounds or so which is 10% of your goal.
This kickstarter is done. That doesn't mean you can't have a successful one again. Build a community of like minded people. Get a forum, post some info on our forums, talk to people in RPG forums. Get 500 people who would fund you for 20$ so that when you launch the next kick starter at least 100 of them do.
You will rue the day that a person's ability to lead is judged by how well ago their views align with those they lead. Especially on matters only on the fringe of the primary goal of the workplace and especially in instances whee the workplace actions are aligned. Shared vision is different than group think and mob rule.
This whole thing reeks of so much thought police BS it is scary. Read their LGBT Support statement in the context of what happened to Eich. It is a scary world in which your legal participation in the political system is treated this way. Now the thought police work to cover their trail.
