You are wrong. "It's" = "it is". ALWAYS.

What is this perception nonsense you're talking about? To perceive something in the quantum world you must measure it, and measuring means perturbing the system you're taking a measure of in a way or another. That's what happens in quantum mechanics: you cannot know both the momentum and position of a particle precisely at the same time.

Except in games where having a keyboard and a mouse doesn't really give you an upper hand, like Portal 2.

Because he is entitled to his own opinion and because he is the CEO of a so-far successful startup company maybe?

And the author explained in his FA that there's nothing wrong with that, but that he wouldn't hire you for his startup company. He wants the kind of programmer who is passionate about it, the one who wants to understand how things really work under the hood, how 3d computer graphics are synthesized, how you could program your own http server from scratch. There's nothing wrong with you wanting to work on the area that you think is the most profitable (I'm sure there must be some simulation/scientific programming jobs that pay more than any .NET job ever could), but the guy is basically saying that if .NET's the only thing you have to offer then he is not going to hire you for his startup.

And you didn't read TFA. He explains that having worked with .NET doesn't automatically discard you as an option, but it does raise a flag. Why did you put it on your resume? because you had to work with it, because you wanted to know what it was all about and have it under your toolbelt, or because you're a .NET-head?

It seems to me that you want to feel special: We are special, our minds so complex, we cannot be reduced to materialistic behavior.
I say you keep feeling special while others try to unveil the mystery of cognition.

Didn't he stop sending reward checks? I think it had to do with some form of check fraud: http://www-cs-faculty.stanford.edu/~uno/news08.html

Sounds interesting. May I ask what kind of graphics API they are using?

How exactly is that a waste?

Was that on the Xbox? I played Resident Evil 5 on my SD TV with no problems, on the PS3. Just curious.

...with Java technologies.

To be 100% fair, some of us in Mexico use Linux and read slashdot and use gmail =)
