Why do you think it seems a bit unfair?


Maybe someone who rejected a job from Blockstream back when Bitcoin was around $350?


I believe he's talking about the future when automonomous cars are commonplace.


I wonder where he worked and why he was terminated. It was probably a similar pattern of behavior at work.


Could have gone like:

"You're in violation of the ToS."

"Our legal team looked it over. We don't think we are."

"Well here's a more clear version of the ToS. You definitely are in violation."

Unity might think they only changed the wording, but they feel they kept the spirit of the original ToS.


Maybe it's a shady negotiating tactic? I wonder if they had come to an impasse.


They're using Gamebryo for TESVI...


Yeah, but some of the CEO's houses are in these two areas.


> “I’m not worried so much about my portfolio companies not working as hard as the Chinese companies,” said Mr. Chan, now a partner at Felicis Ventures. “I’ll worry when they’re less creative and less efficient.”

This seems to be a hollow fear. Working that much seems like it would do more harm than good.


Interesting article. I feel like I had a problem with gaming, but I didn't necessarily have an addiction. When I got an Xbox 360 (and by extension Xbox live), I was able to hangout with my friends without going to their house. Even when they weren't playing, it was because I made friends and connections to people all over. Towards the end of my Xbox Live days, I mostly played without my "IRL" friends.

Now, I rarely game alone, but I play games with my friends in person (Fortnite, Mario Party, Mario Kart, Smash etc.). I think for me, gaming was a substitute for social interaction. Most of my interaction is in person now, so gaming has fallen by the wayside.


Thanks for reading. Gaming is a very common substitute for social interaction - for me as someone with social anxiety it was easier to just stay home and 'socialize' online then to go out and meet other people, but that only left me more isolated and depressed. Getting out and interacting with other people has helped me more since I've quit.
