Life without Relationships
PEOPLEI'm certain that some people need interpersonal connections much more than others, and some people (though I'll guess relatively few) can probably thrive without them entirely. Maybe you can look at your current/past relationships and not see any value, but I'd bet that those relationships (at...- splok

HOT!Not exactly a book, but here are a few links that you can probably pull some useful tidbits from: How to market your indie games: Ben Kuchera’s lecture at Run Jump Dev | Ars Technica Careers in Games: Funding and How to Get It | GamesIndustry International Fundraising 101 for Game Companies |...- splok

HOT!I think there are a couple of problems with your campaign. First, it needs to look more like this: Project Eternity by Obsidian Entertainment — Kickstarter Did you actually go and take a look at the successful game project pages? Check out how they're presenting themselves, what...- splok

FAIL - Selling Counterfeit Merchandise
Are you sure about that? Checking the domain list, there's not much to be sad about. It won't be that hard to replace 100 uggbootsstore-outlet.info's, and the site deploying and ranking are probably automated churn and burn style anyway. Assuming they're operating out of somewhere like China...- splok

Is my slow but steady earning website worth the time trade to keep around?
WEB/DIGITALI'd be more interested in how much traffic it gets than how much money it makes. If you have enough eyeballs on your site, you can find a way to monetize it. Test different things until you find something that works. If the problem is that you just aren't getting much traffic, that's a very...- splok

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!That and much more. It's not just the difference between myself and a younger me (or you), but it's that multiplied by all the differences between people. Just consider that everyone visiting this site is in a very different group than the "average" person, even if the "average" visitor of...- splok

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!Erm what? Your quoted me but it doesn't even seem like you read my post. I'm not a big fan of college. I don't have kids (but I assume I will at some point), and I can't even imagine sending them to grade school, let alone university (unless they really want to do something with utterly...- splok

Here to destroy all your preconceived notions about college
HOT!One problem with these threads is that most people tend to assume that what is good advice for them, at this moment, is also good for everyone else. If I were magically 18 again, I wouldn't even consider college (though maybe I would live near one for the parties!), but if I were considering...- splok

Crowdfunding Algorithm Exposed
PEOPLEMy thoughts, coming from someone considering putting up a project in the high 5 to low 6 figure range: I probably wouldn't buy a guide, but I would potentially pay someone to manage or optimize the campaign. If you're selling a service that improves the rank of campaigns, I would want to...- splok

Anyone tried Shipito?
OFF-TOPICThis seems like a really handy idea for those of us living outside the US. If you live outside the US and want to buy things from US companies, it can be a big pain in the a$$. Some companies don't ship overseas, and even if they do, it can be really pricey. The idea is, you ship everything...- splok

Has Anyone Heard of the Bulletproof Diet?
Coincidentally, I basically spent yesterday reading his entire site. There's a lot of good info there, and he tries to back things up with plenty of citations. (Most people, myself included, will rarely go and read the source material to see if someone's full of shit or not, but it's nice that...- splok

10 Greatest Startup Failures Of All Time - Insane!
Though probably quite common with funded startups, it seems like most of them had problems because they ramped up their burn rate to the point where they didn't have enough time to really find a good product fit before the money ran out. Calling those the "worst" seems a bit odd though. I'm...- splok

Your looks have a major impact on your life
NOTABLE! MINDSETI completely agree with #1. It's about making the best of what you have, but so many people don't even bother to do that. A lot of people think looks "shouldn't" matter but end up behaving as if they "don't" matter. It's not about pity and excuses. It's about realizing the reality of a...- splok

Your looks have a major impact on your life
NOTABLE! MINDSETSure, challenges can be overcome and there are always exceptions. And sure, no one cares what the person selling stuff on the internet looks like. However, most people still work at jobs where face-to-face interaction with someone is required. Also, even the exceptions listed aren't really...- splok

Destinations, Tax Havens, and Countries to "Escape" To
OFF-TOPIC TAXES | REGSI haven't lived in the US in a few years, but imo, make the move based on quality of life, not the tax structure. I'm as tax averse as anyone, but really, having 50% more money isn't exactly going to transform your life. However, living in a place that you actually love to be can. More...- splok

Your looks have a major impact on your life
NOTABLE! MINDSETYou're crazy if you think looks have nothing to do with success in today's society. Sure, people can overcome difficulties and some areas (like entrepreneurship) are much more accessible to people who aren't physically attractive, but grabbing a few outliers as examples is pointless. The real...- splok

HOT!Depending on how much success you expect your project to have, UDK could be cheaper. As of the last time I checked, it's basically free until you cross a certain amount of revenue ($50k), then they charge a 25% royalty. With Unity, depending on your team size, you may be out a few thousand...- splok
