What is going on with big tech lately. It seems that big tech is trying to find every cost saving measure and take a play out of Carvana's playbook. Every company within FAANG has been letting people go in the tens of thousands. Lately it seems like big tech is not as much as a secure job as it once was. I believe more layoffs are coming. Especially after big companies like Microsoft and Googl...

The Best Way To Teaching Yourself

Knowing when to quit a project

This is the way you allow yourself to practice for bigger and bolder games that you are making for retail. Without treating these demos, prototypes, and mini-games like a full release you miss an opportunity to gain a new fan. That complete...

If so, then that's great. However, it's not so great if you're like me. Many kids with any level of melanin have the same sentiment. Now that I have set the scene for you. I want to have a serious conversation with you. Repr...
